    Big up Ste 💥 keep doing u & being u. I appreciate your approach, no theatrics, no forced negativity, no pandering to rival fans for views, no extras.
    Was annoyed we never won yesterday but was pleasantly happy with the performance barring the finishing of course. We need to keep working on & improving on that aspect of our game & the goals will come.
    First time in ages that I like/rate most of our team. Maz is amazing in how he's slotted in perfectly, such a tidy player, similar to Amad, both make the correct decisions & both keep it simple when it's required. Bruno just needs a rest imo don't think he'll get it with the volume of games coming up but yh he'll be fine, will be crucial for us this season.
    Loving the De Ligt & Licha partnership, props to Onana helping us out in back to back games, Pen save last week & some potent saves this week too.

    It's not an exaggeration to say All the recent signings have been a success so far. Mazraoui & De LIgt have not only made the team defensively more solid, more importantly, they're comfortable on the ball and allow MU to build up from the back. Zirkzee who some criticize for not finishing, is showing the ability to link up play in the final third. Even Onana looks like a new signing this season. The results may not reflect it, but MU have improved this season.

Yes, but considering the shower of shite we've been of late, it's a step in the right direction. Yes, there is still a hell of a lot more to do to improve, but people need to see the bigger picture.

    Gutted we came away with just a point. But the performance was much better, by a long mile, judging by previous games. I have never seen us control a game quite like we did, in and out of possession. The patterns and combinations with Zirkzee front and center were pleasing, until ETH decided to kill the momentum with those curious changes. Wasteful in front of goal, yes, but we could go and smash Twenty come Wednesday. Very pleased with the team. I see your great work, Ste. Keep it coming 😊

  • @greatpdeepak
    @greatpdeepak 2 години тому +8

    I personally got more positive vibes from this game than the win against Fulham, and so many other performances. This game was united's best game in almost 2 years. The manager seems to have finally solved the two things dogging him for the longest time, patterns in play and creating chances. The defense really looks air tight right now. Dalot inverting and Maz/Amad axis on the right side is really impressive. ZZ was always going to be the striker who creates rather than the striker who scores, he himself called himself a 9.5. My biggest question from that game is does the manager actually convert ZZ from 9.5 to 10(or even an 8)? His interplay is very good, he holds the ball well and he presses alright too. Rasmus is a beast when it comes to pressing and running and will help him and if he gets on the balls that Garna and Bruno were on the end of, I reckon he buries those chances. We've got to have a tactic where ZZ and Rasmus play together and this means that Bruno gets to come off the bench to finish some games. The season is going to be long, we need to not forget that our target is 4th/5th in the table and deep runs in the cups(hopefully winning Europa) This performance helps us a lot for the upcoming games against Spurs and Villa. Those are our must win 6 pointer games.
    Finally, I am not worried about Bruno. He will come in clutch like he has so many times for us. But that being said. The board must start doing succession planning. Either seriously considering Fletcher/Ennis from the academy or a target from outside the club(my dream signing is Wirtz). GGMU

    We are coming from a horrible away record, the performance and setup was a massive improvement from where we were, you don't get results immediately after moving towards a sustainable system, now this base requires continuous adjustments, better analysis of squad rotation, improving final third movement, improving positional rotation, all these things will come with time. But they need to stick to this approach, and be allowed patience, also, I think we can further squeeze the field in the middle, that'll help our creative players because they definitely get tired, problem is, now teams will be vary of giving space behind them, and this will further ask for patience in possession, and conversting chances will get difficult because the game won't be as open, this will result in frustrating games, but starting it early can help our young attackers start working on their finishing earlier now.

    The more structured the team becomes, the less Bruno will have the freedom to experiment. Eriksen is more of a "By The Numbers" orchestrator who is able to see the patterns and if the team are playing to those patterns he can create opportunities.
    Bruno is far more of a "Spot a crack in the armour and exploit it" creator, if the players around him are on the same page. He works better in the more chaotic systems we've played.
    More and more EPL teams are able to play well organised systems of defence, we see the improvement, and the narrowing of the quality gap every new season. The league is becoming far more technical, and there are less opportunities for a player like Bruno to play with that swagger.
    By no means am I saying he is obsolete, but he needs to start focusing more on being part of the system, rather than the exception who can do his own thing. There are moments in a game where that is the right thing to do. But there are also times he needs to take the more pragmatic route.

    I do appreciate his drive for attack but in a game such like that, we needed level headedness and retention - whereas he was playing as if it was the last 5 mintues of the game.
    And honestly, that aspect of his mentality towards the attach is the one thing i think separates him from the likes of KDB. If could only know to be more reserved like Odeegard, but can kindle that flare at points, he would be a phenomenal force in all game situations

I come to your channel because you speak like a fan. But, you're also running your own club and can speak from that perspective. The problem with media now is negativity gets clicks. Someone can say the something with zero fact and it will get views - AND THEN BE REPEATED AS FACT. So I'll keep coming to your channel whether United win, lose or draw because I know you're watching the match the way I am. I want to see improvement. I want to see players who are fighting for the badge and want to be at the club. I want to see progress. I can deal with losses and draws if there's progress. I'm not losing my head because I know this is going to take time.

    Felt to me that we were trying to be too cute and fancy with the final ball. People gotta pick their heads up sometimes and put a shot on frame. We made more chances than Palace but I don’t think felt threatening outside of De Ligt’s header and Garnacho hitting the bar. The few chances Palace had were nerve racking and were really lucky to have such a great GK and that Eze absolutely fluffed his lines. And it’s like you said Ste, if one of those goes in, I don’t see United pushing on to equalize and then take the lead.

    The truth from an opposition fan (me) here is that yes, United look better than last season BUT most teams would, having spent a load of money on half a new starting 11 in the summer. However, it's still a team - and especially a manager - that's capable of no more than a lower top half finish in the league and that's where you're judged. Your ceiling isn't the players, it's your manager, but the longer you fail to see that, the happier us non-fans remain!

    Zirkzee needs Ruud to improve his offensive part of his game cos it's not good enough, his body language is 'too casual' he needs to up his focus, fitness, conditioning & sharpness to be a regular in this team!
    No 'Shin Pads' that an issue to the fanbase. The manager should tell him 'No Pads No Play' this is where We think the manager is been careless & not protecting the players.
    Capt. Bruno has to play as an disciplined 8 to stay in the team for Zirkzee to benefit otherwise drop Bruno &repace him with Mainoo!

    We have to try Zirkzee & Hojlund together, I think could be a great partnership. Zirkzee is more Sheringham than Shearer- not fair or realistic to expect bagful of goals himself, but could bring lots of goals for Hojlund and Garnacho with his intelligent play.

    Maz ability was never in question it was his injury record. Thought Bruno, Nacho and Rash were well off it again. Garnacho touch was woeful and he was in the way a lot. Would have liked to see Hojilund and Zirk in 442, with Ugarte Case Eriksen and Amad behind them. Mainoo trending now on 50 solid min but not finishing games out on solid legs. Gotta be better managed. And DeLigt header would have brought down the house if it went in.

    Dunno about eveyone else but I was extremely happy with that
    Don't forget, we lost to them twice last season conceding 5 goals to em
    Getting a clean sheet is positive especially the way we kept possession and forced their keeper to have the game of his life
    The negative was the substitutions were horrendous. We were in total control of that game until our runners came on and the footballers were taken off. As soon as the subs happened, we went back to hoofball and upset the rhythm.
    Overall though, pretty happy with the CS and the possession especially 1st half where they couldn't get a kick

  • @bryngefferies7530

    We want to be harder to beat & control games better by 4.3.3. - this is why we're missing 'Pogba' type midfielders e.g. Barella, Fofana etc... can protect the ball better cos Bruno is the wrong type of player that can vary the pace of the game so we've prepare to replace Bruno next!
    Due a poor start, we still expect minimum 4th place & some cups this season!

    For me, it's not just that Bruno loses the ball, it's how he does it. Now, if he was going for a killer pass, they will not always come off. But it's, kind of like Marcus, the small easy passes most times. Or unnessecary worldies.
    You almost never see a Kroos or a Modric just give the ball away for no reason. Bruno does it a lot, and I can't stand it.

    Last season fans wanted performances like this, even when Utd managed to win games the performances were so so bad.
    Goals could well be an issue all season or things might click and players find consistent form but with the emergence of Diallo and bringing in Zirkzee there is a little more depth so I’m not sure the criticism of ETH for bringing on players who could well have started the game is entirely justified.
    If you are winning a game make a sub and end up drawing or losing because of the tactical mistake then yeah have a go at ETH.

    The whole back 5 impressed (Licha's nonsense tackle aside), Garnacho would have gotten an 8 for the first half and a 5 for the second. Thought Amad was good on the ball but didn't get on it enough or produce any magic. From about 60th min onwards Bruno gave the ball away far too often and too easily. These are all nitpicks from what should have been a comfortable 2-3 nil lead after half time. Impressed with the performance generally, need to put away our chances though.
