    The negatives are what need to be addressed.if they are not, we will continue to see results like that and continue to not press for the title or CL.

    The mentality, attitude and tactics vs 'smaller' sides need to be addressed.

    Only concentrating on the good times will ignore the problems. How is that going to get us back to the level we need to be at?

    Mich this started off with you moaning about the midfield and slowly it gets drawn out to the while mentality if the club.

    Last year it was slut attitude against the top six now.its our attitude against the bottom teams maybe next year we will find a happy medium but the fact is united have been excellent against the top clubs the past few months and that's something positive to build on.

    The season is over it's nothing match with fringe players been played and to be honest so far they doing pretty well it's going to be a long summer for you at this rate.

    So Jose's penchant for playing defensive football isn't a good evolution discussion from Jose playing 3 defensive midfielder on a nothing game.

    What do people think of taking a chance on Renato Sanchez? Could get him cheap?

    Being challenged isn't the issue. I'm happy to argue my opinion.

    Just taking a shot at me is different and I'll call that out.

    To infer I'm simply taking shots over my opinion being debated is fcking sh1t from you.

    It's been discussed to death people call everything defensive now if it aint like liverpool.

    Today ain't about defensive football Mitch it's like a testimonial game to a great player for the club and it's about fitting him in a midfield and support around him and giving fringe players a go that's all it is.

    Jose has not set United up defensively in months the players attitude has made them defensive the lack if desire to run and chase down the ball is the problem noting to do with defensive football.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,599 ✭✭✭✭Trigger


    Rojo some man for nicking the ball


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,201 ✭✭✭✭RobbingBandit

    Two defensively positioned midfielders at home to west brom.

    Today was a perfect day to give young attacking lads like gomes, chong or greenwood some minutes. But no, defensively set up starting line up and no look to youth attackers on the bench.

    Mitch saying people are ganging up on you is sh1t from you so there you go...

    you started the big debate today before the game even started and when the majority if people challenge you then you call it ganging up and your not allowed have an opinion that's making yourself a victim.

    Was that not a mid three with Pogba/Herrera/Matic?

    Rashford really does make some strange decisions doesn't he.

    1 Shot on target at home to watford

    Pathetic


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,599 ✭✭✭✭Trigger


    I dont get the “today was a perfect day for kids”, it was the perfect day to give squad players minutes, especially with the Cup Final coming up.. what happens if there’s injuries and we need to rely on these players at Wembley.

    It would've been understandable to have played the kids, or some of them, had there not been an F.A Cup final on the horizon.. But there is, and that's what probably dictated José's thinking... Probably...

    Sorry, you're right. I'm think of the Brighton line up.

    You must be thinking of a different match. Fellaini was injured....

    Blind has not been involved almost at all this season, why would next weeks game be so important to have him game ready for when no other game this season has been?

    We're such a terrible team to watch recently. Good news is so are Chelsea . Would love for us to beat them and Conte to get sacked afterwards

    A west brom side while going down.


    Beat Liverpool/spurs/ Drew with Liverpool/Arsenal


    We need to get out of this mentality as do some of the players that we just need to turn up.


    "But...but...we're united" Yes but we need to still turn up and perform.



    No youth? What's McT?/Rashford?


    If he put out a young team and got battered at home people would be whining it was bad prep for the fa cup final and should have given Carrick some protection in his last game and whine whine whine

    Hell if I know, that's a question only José and his coaching staff can answer.

    Great send off for Carrick I'd have him on the bench for next week too McTominay played a blinder even before that eye injury Young man of the match performance again Mata and Sanchez great link up, Romero wow, who needs DeGea(I kidding I kidding) Bailly and Rashford both a little lax at times Rashford gets frustrated so easily Pogba meh.

    Wonder if bailly did enough to get back into Jose's good books (according to supposed informed speculation) or the cup final team.

    I'd be far happier to see him at the back over everyone else.

    That's a bridge to cross when August rolls around, doesn't warrant thinking about until then..

    As it stands now I think him and lindelof are out best pairing for next year.

    Lindelof? Can't see thst at all. Too easily dominated by physical forwards. Needs to toughen up on challenging for aerial balls to get a first 11 spot imo. And I do want him to cause I think he is very good on the ball and has good game reading - but needs to be more reliable in competing for the ball.

    I'd have him ahead of smalling and Jones on recent form tho.

    Will actually feel sorry to see the back of Blind this summer. A tidy player and his passing his biggest strength. Just doesnt suit us at the moment. Will do well where ever he goes
