Match Thread Man United (A) - Sunday 1st Sept 16:00

[Woland]

If as it seems Diaz has discovered what a goal is, maybe he can stay for a while.

 

[binomial]

All Diaz does is run down blind alleys.
Grav has no talent, too lazy and doesn't get involved.
& Ibou can't be relied upon to play every week.

 

[Markeh]

Diaz has no end product

you mean DeAss?

 

[dee]

United need to sack off Casemiro and get into Mac A’s face more.

Fingers crossed they won’t 😀

 

[DHSC]

Diaz has no end product

To be fair his shots have been top notch but his passing hasnt been good and he keeps running into blind alleys.

Have to take the bad with the good I guess.

 

[Woland]

Great tempo away at OT.

Gravy been superb.

Brilliant to see Diaz so clinical.

Yet again Salah making a mockery of any fan who thinks he’s past his best. Two wonderful fucking assists and almost three.

Utd still pose a threat but looking good.

I’d swap Nunez for Jota who has been ineffective and pushed off it too easily.

I'd be worried about him fucking up the rhythm

 

[Shadey]

Excellent 1st half! More of the same please!

Took a while to get started but we came into our own.

 

[Dreambeliever]

I hate this fucking fixture

I love it. My fav one.

Not liking our kit.

But loving our style under Slot.

 

[Markeh]

i have to say that i really really enjoy not going a goal behind every game

 

[Farkmaster]

I don't think any of our forwards or ams have been clinical enough in build up. None have had great games because we've had so many promising positions. And yet we are up 2-0. I hope we step up even more.

 

[Hyena]

Opinions on Jota?
I think it's a good game for an early sub.
Having a torrid time against Martinez and DeLigt imo.

Front three all playing badly - but two of them have the goods to show.

Definitely think Jota needs to come off. Can't decide who comes on for him

 

[Dreambeliever]

I'd be worried about him fucking up the rhythm

Maybe but we can soak up a bit now and he’s still great at holding up the ball and stretching a backline.

 

[DHSC]

We need to play with more control in the 2nd half. Lets see how Slot plans for it. Please no helter skelter!

 

[KopRed]

We were always in control after the first 5-10 mins.

 

[Dreambeliever]

I don't think any of our forwards or ams have been clinical enough in build up. None have had great games. We are up 2-0. I hope we step up even more.

You didn’t watch Salah set up two goals then no? wtf is more clinical than that?

 

[Donavan Ried]

Nice from Virge, shit from diogo

Jota as not really had any impact in the game so far.
Would like to see Nunez in at 60 mins, he will strech the game

 

[dee]

Not liking our kit

Seriously? I think it’s boss

 

[KopRed]

Did Szobo really leave the ball for Diaz there? What a reaction.

 

[binomial]

You can just tell Studge is waiting until FT to wind the fuck out of Roy.

 

[RobbySwanson]

Not so sure I'd want Nunez coming on for a while yet, I reckon he'd be easy to wind up and fuck something up by throwing the bench at someone.

 

[binomial]

Get Gakpo Nunez and Chiesa on.

Robbo Jota and Mac off.

Ibou Virg and Grav can pretty much shut out this Utd side from here.

 

[dee]

We’ve had the ball in the net three times and apart from one shot from the RB we’ve not been threatened

 

[ibromurph]

Showing a lot of fans on here for how fickle they are.

Minds changing with the wind, again.

Not me. He's good enough to given the chance. I just wanted better cover than Endo.

Endo is not skipping past the midfield like Gravy with his technical ability and/or physicality.

Gravy can not play every game.

That's when we will suffer.

City have Gundo and Kovacic who can both cover Rodri. We have Endo.

 

[Buddha]

Not so sure I'd want Nunez coming on for a while yet, I reckon he'd be easy to wind up and fuck something up by throwing the bench at someone.

Nah, he’ll score a late third…

 

[Dreambeliever]

HE LOVES MAKING ME LOOK A CUNT

That finish was prime Torres. wtf did it come from 😀

 

[Farkmaster]

You didn’t watch Salah set up two goals then no? wtf is more clinical than that?

I'm talking about how many times we created a chance of any kind from a good position. We lost balls dangerously in promising situations due to poor passing and decision-making.

There were lots and lots of those situations though and we did convert reasonably clinically when we did get to the final ball, we just didn't get there enough, then had to sprint back on the counter, for no real reason. Call me greedy.

 

[Buddha]

Grav absolutely monstering England’s next big thing today…

 

[Dreambeliever]

Salah, is something else this season.

He’s output in terms of goals and assists for someone ‘on a huge decline’ is insane.

 

[Frogfish]

Gravy our best player.

So many doubted him and wanted a new 6. Hmm

 

[Shadey]

So many doubted him and wanted a new 6. Hmm

In Arne we trust..
