The Manchester United Thread

Good I actually want Lukaku back for these next two games, our front line has looked so lightweight recently that we don't seem to break teams down other than passing the ball in the net.

U18s 0-0 against Wolves atm after 36 mins.


0-1 Utd great play by Brandon Williams down the right with a little run into the box beating a couple of players. Slides it to Galbraith who scores a great left footed shot into the bottom corner. 85 mins gone.


Well that was stupid! 1-1 Get caught out trying to play out the back after just taking the lead. Easy finish for Wolves.


Lol from the kick off. Great play from Elanga puts the ball in to McGee who somehow manages to put it into the top corner with the weakest of strikes.


FT 1-2 Utd. Tbh one of the most boring slowest games of football I’ve ever seen.

I predict a frustrating afternoon with that lineup, I don't get playing Mata in this game over Lukaku either. Thought Lukaku was a certainty today after how well he has played lately, didn't see him vs Wolves. I just don't get it really, same can be said for Fred although a bit more understandable with that midfield.
 
Got to say we have been dreadful today, absolutely Watford have bossed this game. But somehow we are 2-0 up.

After this performance though I'm worried going forward. Yes I know it's all about winning, but we have literally no identity at all last few games.

Calm ya **** mate jeez. We played **** loads of games like this especially under Fergie after a few bad results. Yes we been poor but we’ve ground out a good defensive win after a **** couple of results. 3points job done plots of players back from injury. On to the next!

Shaw and Smalling good. Jones MOTM easily. Ole at the wheel how good does it feel :)

There's literally nothing you won't complain about is there?

The one thing we do have is identity. We just weren't quite at it today. And still won.

Oh come on Mike, what we going to do? Woohoo we played back foot counter attacking football at Old Trafford and took our 2 chances we practically had. Lets celebrate and do the ring of roses.

After Mourinho it was about building an identity moving forward, what on earth tells you we are doing that? Grinding out results it literally all we ever do under Solskjaer lately (I mocked LVG's park the bus comments but he does have a point). I wish people would see through their sentimentality sometimes and just say things as they are.

People keep bringing up Fergie as an excuse, we need to move on and to me this appointment is not moving on at all with football like that.
 
Not crying at all, but if you think we are going anywhere next season with football like what we've seen last few games then I'm sorry you need to take your tinted Solskjaer spectacles off.

Watford had 20 shots today, we had ****** 4. At Old Trafford I've not seen a team dominate us that badly for a while. No longevity with football like that, celebrate a win today but worry about the future.

If that had of been city or Barca would have been over by half-time.
 
Good result, bad display. Our midfield let us down a bit today and got dominated by Watford's. Our back four was sharp and denied clear cut chances to Watford, in spite of their pressure.

Juan Mata is a nice bloke, but an odd fit in the team. He doesn't really have end product, doesn't create a lot of chances, isn't a dribbler. He's a good passer, but is not a controller. His technical abilities tends to embellish the game rather than decide it.
 
but it was not city or barca so wind your neck in good man are you ever happy we have had a few bad games so what it happens how many did we have under mou this season and last

That's literally the only reason he will still be here next season, but yet people here still think he somehow fits this system. He is totally useless on the right, Solskjaer quickly changed to a diamond to compensate for how leggy he is now. Can't keep up with the game anymore a lot of the time. Especially for 90 mins.

Tbh mate it’s been 2 games not a few. Despite the Arsenal result we still played well. You need to take the bigger picture into things.
