Greenlizard0 PL & Championship Football Thread ** spoilers ** [2nd - 6th April 2021]

I don't think their ability is in question. I just don't think they are playing the right positions or with any real pattern of play. Greenwood is a young lad and undoubtedly a talent but I think he's more of a second striker. I don't think 4-2-1-3 works that well unless you are countering all the time. I know its not fashionable now but I prefer 4-3-1-2. Bruno is actually a bit of a problem because he plays with so much freedom that it makes proper midfield control that you need against the low block . Its the system that is neutering these players a lot of the time.

I'm not having that about pattern of play. Rashford and Greenwood have been atinking out right and left wing for months now.

If they can't play that role play them elsewhere or drop them. And don't tell me we don't have the players. We had chance to buy in Jan but chose not to.
 
I don't doubt Greenwood's potential, he's clearly very good at striking a ball, I just don't think he's going to develop under Ole which is a shame.

You can't tell me that Brighton are better man for man. I'm telling you, Fernandes has been great but when he's not and increasingly thats the case we have nothing to fall back on.
These players are as good as any squad other than City but they are being poorly coached for this league. Buying a Sancho or a Halaand isn't going to solve the problems we have witnessed all season.
 
Utd have the players, they just don't have the coach or tactics. Ole is dross and the elevated league position is due to the rest of the league being dross as well.

Saying that I expect a couple of pieces of individual quality to rescue the game as usual.
 
At least for United McTominay coming on will mean at least 1 player is trying to play with some passion!

Do they? The defence is bang average albeit Shaw has come on immensely. Pogba can't be arsed half the time and Fred is Fred. I've spoken about Rashford before, Cavanis over the hill and wants to go home and Greenwood, although I think people are harsh on this thread, is a kid.

I think Ole is an issue don't get me wrong but the United team aren't as good as people make out. To beat Brighton in the other fixture it took a penalty after the final whistle if you remember...seems like years ago lol.

They have decent players in most areas, granted there is trash as well. A better coach would be playing better football.
