Greenlizard0 PL & Championship Football Thread ** spoilers ** [5th - 7th August 2022]

just stick on the kids and go all out attack. Nothing to lose. I can't see us scoring 3 with the team from the first half. The kids will have some drive and a point to prove. Go all out I say.

The kids don't appear to be good enough either.

 

[Calpol]

If we don't see two changes at half time I'll be losing faith in EtH

 

[GarethSouthgate]

7-8th this season. Far below arsenal and spurs.

Yup.

Top 4 according to some though haha

 

[Kelt]

McClaren being employed by a PL club and at Man Utd no less is insane to me.

Best brolly man in the game, though.

Watching as a neutral, Man U don't have any movement whatsoever. Add to that no urgency with or without the ball. When they lose the ball the team just casually tracks back.

Its comical, reminds me of Spurs when they had André Villas-Boas in charge and they just relied on Bale to dig them out with a wonder goal.

can't be any worse than what was witnessed the last 45 minutes

 

[GarethSouthgate]

Fernandes missed a sitter, let's not forget that either. Has he lost it? Even apart from the miss he's been pretty poor.

 

[robfosters]

Keane was desperately trying to put a bit of positive spin on it there

 

[omnomnom]

He wont put Ronaldo on at HT.

 

[Calpol]

United xG 0.29 ffs

I only started watching after 30 minutes but Must admit I didn't know he was on the pitch...

 

[GarethSouthgate]

Sancho anonymous. Is he even on the pitch?

 

[Robbo]

While Ronaldo makes sense, we're in an awkward Ten Hag vs Ronaldo power battle situation at the moment...

£75 million well spent.

He's played United's best pass of the half. It's not his fault that they've no control in midfield and can't get him the ball

He's got a killer Dutch accent though.

He's not just bigger than the club, he IS the club

 

[Tigget]

It’s actually impressive how bad Man United are. Most impressive fall from power, truly embarrassing. Signings say it all, can’t attract talent and on the rare occasions they do the team is so poor they struggle to perform.

A fair point.

Brightons shape defensively is so much better than ours. It impressive how you can have so many men being run rings around by 2-3 guys when those 2-3 guys are moving.
