Greenlizard0 Premier League Football Thread ** spoilers ** [1st - 3rd September 2023]

shudda wudda coulda

and if havertz wasnt a pepega and scored in first half and if saka scored in the 2nd

all what ifs and buts

Absolutely, not disputing that. It's pretty sad though we've ended up with Maguire and Evans on - not going to achieve much with that sort of pairing.

Hojlund looked bright at least, I think our season is going to depend on whether he can stay fit and play well.
 
Injuries are becoming really problematic. We have one of our first choice defenders fit now. our 5th and 6th choice CB's and a right back at left back.
I'd stick McSauce in over Maguire, surely we have some youngsters worth a trial

Biggest club in the world and all that

He's injured, and no we don't have any youngsters close to ready. We took two on tour, one is injured and neither looked close to good enough.

I'd have preferred putting Dalot in the centre with Maguire, he had a great game. But then we'd have had to throw Reguilon in with I presume no training.

Why has he said that, if he respects all decisions made by the coaching staff?

Ten Hag said he wasn't good enough in training and wasn't selected as a result. Have I missed something?
 
Taken stock of todays result and performance...

Injuries happen and teams need to be prepared for that - but as other have said - to end up with McGuire and Evans as your CB's isn't good planning.

There are still huge issues at United - The "sale" of the club nonsense which has been months and months of nothing, Sancho has been a problem from day 1 of his signing. Something more going on there with him and for him to break ranks with a statement like that isn't great for the club.

United still look "unsure" of how to play the way ETH obviously wants them to play, and some of the players simply aren't good enough on a regular basis for that.

Anthony looks great for a game, then goes missing for the next one,
Martial - just a waste of space/time as a centre forward, nothing in all years he's been at United has ever had me thinking he's the answer to the CF problem. Needs gone
McTom/McGuire/Bailey/VDBeek all need move on/gone.

Lots of problems all over the club and the performances from the "big" players isn't there at the moment - Casemiro looks lost at the moment, Bruno seems to just spend too much time whining about stuff..... Going to be a tough season for United this year, I suspect another 4th/5th place is as good as they can hope for.
