    How long does Ibrahimovic get before he gets the abuse Rooney gets?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,404 ✭✭✭✭Vicxas


    Game needs a goal. This is so stale.

    I wonder at what point do people start to think that he's a poor signing?

    For a player who comes across as very confident in general he seems to be lacking in it on the pitch last few games.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,150 ✭✭✭✭LuckyGent88


    Shaw needs to start cutting out these crosses. Getting beat every time by navas

    At least he was free, Liverpool signed Balotelli for actual money! :(

    Luke Shaw getting skinned EVERY time


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,121 ✭✭✭✭Mantis Toboggan


    Ah ffs sake Zlatan, get him off the field and bring on Lingard

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,725 ✭✭✭✭blueser


    We should keep getting the ball out to Navas. He's running Shaw ragged.

    Martial or Rashford should be playing up front in this game.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,084 ✭✭✭✭Kirby


    Take Ibra off and Rashford through the middle on his own perhaps?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,943 ✭✭✭✭ShaneU


    Not one shot on target in 45 minutes against City's second string.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28,546 ✭✭✭✭murpho999

    I would say his wages and signing on fee would make him not really free.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,932 ✭✭✭✭Osmosis Jones


    Not being funny but Ibrahimovic has had as bad a half as I've seen from any player all season.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 43,028 ✭✭✭✭SEPT 23 1989


    Happy with that

    B team holding their own


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,026 ✭✭✭duffman13


    Busted flushes everywhere lads! This has been muck


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 27,349 ✭✭✭✭super_furry


    Rooney was binned on the back of performances that were nowhere near as bad as Zlatan has been. Wonder what he has to do to get dropped.

    Well then no player was ever free then

    Tough going, city are somewhat coherent in their approach while united need a moment of individual magic to spark them.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,052 ✭✭✭SuperTortoise


    That Garcia chap looks handy.
    Even enough first half.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,725 ✭✭✭✭blueser


    Given what I was fearing, I'm slightly disappointed to be goin in only level. Kel could (should?) have 1, arguably 2, goals to his name. My worry would be if those misses are going to cost us. Und can't be as mediocre again the second half. They will almost definitely get a chance or four.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,612 ✭✭✭eigrod


    Not 1 shot on target from either side in the 1st half. Utter ****e.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,294 ✭✭✭LiamoSail


    Ibra has spent pretty much all of his career playing for sides that dominate all
    in front of them domestically.

    Playing in a more competitive league, for a relatively less competitive side, where he won't get the same number of chances or support in attack is always going to be an adjustment, particularly given his age

    Luke Shaw has been turned more times than the big show

    Poor Milk Cup game so far.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,943 ✭✭✭✭ShaneU


    I'd put Young on for Shaw

    Navas the best player on the park. I sentence I thought I'd never say.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 40,061 ✭✭✭✭Harry Palmr


    What is it with Southampton players eh? ;)

    Shaw looks to be carrying a few pounds, certainly looks off the pace.

    Price tag is not reflected in his football ability


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,289 ✭✭✭✭rob316


    Given the team selections you would expect United to be ahead but city probably should be. worryingly for United is city have a gameplan United don't and both managers are at their respective clubs the same time.

    There are some but Ibrahiimovic was a top player and was in demand so could name his price so he's definitely an expensive signing.


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,868 ✭✭✭Andersonisgod


    Maffeo at right back looks very good, if he gets some more experience under his belt at this level and Guardiola could be onto another winner.

    Tbf, he hasn't won in 5, he's due a winner


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36,466 ✭✭✭✭BorneTobyWilde


    Some one has to win.
    Jose wants to win a game 1-0 just so he can say '' told ya ''

    By game plan you mean the same tactic I see most Sunday teams use. Sit back and try and counter. Compared to Jose who looks like his game plan is to win it and do it down the wings.

    Get Sergio on


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,725 ✭✭✭✭blueser


    Damn, Kel again. If he was on his game, we'd be out of sight by now.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 27,349 ✭✭✭✭super_furry


    That was a great save.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 35,591 ✭✭✭✭Hotblack Desiato


    First save of the game according to 5 Live.

    Scrap the cap!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 31,948 ✭✭✭✭Mars Bar


    Outstanding save


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,725 ✭✭✭✭blueser


    Great save Willy.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36,404 ✭✭✭✭LuckyLloyd


    What a save!

    How a Zlatan to Pogba goal would have brought cheer to the Utd fans!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,131 ✭✭✭Burial.


    I'd be so annoyed with Pogba if I was Rashford. All that for bloody nothing
