Tactics aside, the team has no fire in their guts.

Just haven't matched the intensity and energy of Hull...a bit of an old cliché but you have to earn the right to play in these kind of games...and defensively just poor.
reluctantly probably need Rashford on sooner rather than later - Dorgu been poor. |

They need to take Tielemans off and drop Bruno deeper

on the plus side, the chance of another signing has gone up by about 60%

United back in the Champions League should have seen them sign some real ballers, how have you not attracted anyone of note with the wages you can offer along with European football, recruitment has been poor.

Isn't it about this time Luke "Fatty" Shaw gets a contract extension?

Thoughts on Saturday's game - forget tactics and personnel for a moment, if you don't win tackles, aerial battles, get amongst the opposition or pass or control the ball properly then you won't get anywhere.
Some players want to get the ball forward as quickly as possible while others want to keep possession - this balance needs to be addressed. Thoughts on the weekend - there's never been a better chance for a Brighton, Brentford, Forest, even Leeds to get top 4. Arsenal should have this league won with 5 games to spare looking at the likes of City, Villa, us and Liverpool in the 1st game. |

Hull packed the midfield.
The only way through was over the top. We don't have a single target man. |

 Maguires shot was heading for the corner flag Thems the breaks. |

Well well,
How long before Shaw gets a slight knock and is taken off as a precaution, and is out until after Christmas, Never mind he's been responsible for 5 goals conceded in our last pre season game and two league games but he's still our only left back at the club. The two right backs who neither are good enough in the own positions are going to be used as cover apparently with Dorgu and Baleba also in consideration if needed. And all the while 115 charges are buying as if money is going out of fashion. The premier league are a joke on that front and destroying their credibility. I've cancelled sky and watch in other ways now in protest. |

And back to the team,
Don't really know about the midfield but they all look like good signings for the money. Time will tell whether they elevate us but with Carrick determined to only play two in front of that defence is going to make it hard for them to prosper. Looked fine once we went ahead Sunday but very few teams will allow us the space Ipswich did. A defence of Dalot Maguire Martinez and bloody Shaw will not cut it in the PL. Low block hoping to counter is our only hope again and any chance of trying to play more progressively will have to be put on the back burner. |
|
By:
And with that issue above and the fact we now fave 4 genuine midfielders and 5 or 6 if you count Dorgu and Amad I think he should explore a 3 man midfield.
Over half of Bruno's assists came from dead ball situations last year and I'd presume another few came from a right forward position so actually playing him there might not be such a bad idea. Whipping balls into Sesko and coming inside himself with less running to do might just make him even more productive. It would also lessen his biggest flaw , namely losing possession in crucial positions leaving us wide open. Worth a shot imo. |

I like Bruno deeper myself, against Hull when we were up against a low block, Tielemans was deeper doing nothing and Bruno was further forward, he was almost a centre forward at times, with no space and he was completely ineffective, I like him in the deeper QB position where he can dictate play although I take the point of him losing the ball and putting us in trouble.
I think we can ignore the result from a perspective of an accurate assessment of where we are offensively as Ipswich simply fell apart and we were flattered. The most pertinent point of the game was the first half when they waltzed through our midfield at will, Baleba will be sleeping well at night playing in our midfield that is for sure. |

UH, when he's fit of course

Everton away should be an absolutely horrible game to play in, that would have been one of the easiest games United have had against them, space everywhere to attack and just some simple composure needed to be able to pick them off and we can't see it out.
We're starting to look like we did in those games with ETH where when defending a lead we would be desperately clinging on for dear life at the end of games. |

Not many games UTD have controlled like that especially away from home in last few seasons...deserved to win...didn't.. but we got a few breaks last season winning games we didn't merit so just have to take it, some encouraging signs in terms of link up passing, relationships etc but already behind any basic point target through 3 games so needs to kick on if not to be a tough season..
very surprised no LB deal was done...but Dalot has done it both for UTD and Portugal..and seems they'll wait on Hall or another who would cost proper money, Hall deal was never going to happen at anything near sensible price after all the N'castle outgoings this summer. Rashford's return which seemingly was mainly on Carrick, as INEOS very keen to find an out for him is.. if you get an effort from him a 60-70m player in this era...him and Shaw clearly link better than others have.. |
|
By:
Thought we were impressive today. Rashford and Mainoo keeping that standard would be awesome. Can't do much about that equaliser, crazy goal.
|
|
By:
Hall wants to go elsewhere hence not pushing for man utd transfer, they couldn't take him this window.
Dunno how it plays out, he's being offered new deal, and doubtless agents will have escape clause inserted, maybe he includes man utd, maybe not... |
|
By:
yep, was a bit of a sickener to play like that and not get the win but as I say ...got the rub a few times last season under Carrick..
