Man Utd are still stuck in a cycle of despair, they are never far away from a shellacking. The fact is the team still looks directionless in possession, and the last few results scraping results against poor sides have been driven by players Ten Hag tried to ship off in the summer. I thought they would be good with him in charge but the squad composition is incoherent. Whenever they try to implement positional play they get battered because they can’t do it, so they revert to counterattacking football, rinse reposed, they’ll probably beat City on Sunday and then lose 3-0 to Fulham.
Some absolute beatings are on the horizon for United if they don’t sharpen up massively
What an utter embarrassment United have become. Dominated in the stands and on the pitch at Old Trafford by FCK.
We got 99 problems. Onana is not one of them
Some forwards that can shoot and that is an easy win the ref cant try to take from us.
That 1st half was a literal snoozefest, 2nd half I expected rashford to be subbed off for garnacho, starting to think the only reason rashford played well at all last season was because of shaw
Maguire has improved & fought for his position, hope he keeps it up & doesn’t get complacent
Mctominay was OK but could do a lot better thought the pen was very harsh, I was surprised he wasn’t subbed instead of Amrabat tho
Eriksen as usual a great player with great passing changed the game
I still can’t believe rashford & garnacho didn’t put their chances away!
Fernandes was nonexistent first half, then was much better 2nd half, I’m curious why we even bought mount at this point, we should have spent that 60mill on a cb ffs
