    That was all on Dalot. He's all along in the LB position and sees the run from a long way out.

    Hojund and Zirzkee seem to have no idea how to use their size and strength to shield a ball,

    1-0 down from another set piece. Was it a corner though??



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,430 ✭✭✭stesaurus


    Not even surprised



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,571 ✭✭✭mcburns07

    No replay yet to show was it a corner



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,776 ✭✭✭Iseedeadpixels


    Totally undeserved too, we've been quite solid tbh.

    That’s a bit more like it from Utd.

    Very consistent at defending corners.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 14,736 ✭✭✭✭JRant


    If we don't have a mega summer in the transfer market, this team are going down next season. It's one of the worst squads I've ever seen at the club. In fact, it's probably one of the worst squads in the PL this season. We are blessed the bottom 3 are so bad at picking up points.

    We've created shag all and defended the goal poorly. We just deserve to be 1-0 imo



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,673 ✭✭✭✭FourFourRED


    Watched it back and it’s hard to see but looks like it came off Pereira. The BBC not showing it again anyway it seem.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,811 ✭✭✭DataDude


    Hojlund 7 touches. 1 pass completed. 5 possessions lost. We had 50% possession. The consistency at which he churns these out is absolutely insane.

    Thought Zirkzee had shown glimpses of something in recent weeks but he’s been almost as bad.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 743 ✭✭✭soap1978


    Its a shocking team and Bruno has be brutal not a man utd captain, Keane was spot on about him



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 17,266 ✭✭✭✭Nalz


    I think my 2-1 to Fulham prediction is still possible but I'd have my money on 2-0 or even 3-0 now. There's very little urgency or creativity in this team and no clinicalness of front



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,430 ✭✭✭stesaurus


    Why does Hojlund always need to be wrestling? His strength should be an asset but when he wastes so much time grappling with defenders it becomes a weakness.

    Still think we can turn it around, Fulham haven't shown anything either.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,673 ✭✭✭✭FourFourRED


    What would be different tonight if someone else was captain, in your view?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 17,266 ✭✭✭✭Nalz


    Exactly.

    If I was Bruno I'd leave. Go to a club that isn't in the flucking gutter. The stick he gets is unbelievable, embarrassing and at times childish.

    Roy Keane is a caricature cashing in where and when he can and suits him. Awful manager. Stubborn man. Unbelievable player. Boring pundit.

    Ugarte injured? With Yoro gone theres no pace in that defence.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,710 ✭✭✭Caustic


    Thought yoro had been one of the better players on the pitch



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,710 ✭✭✭Caustic


    We will deffo get hit on the counter that's a fair slow back 5 now



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 32,453 ✭✭✭✭Mars Bar


    Maz with the energy to get to the box. I would assume he's Muslim and now would be time to break fast in the UK



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 14,736 ✭✭✭✭JRant


    Bruno plays an awful ball to Hojlund there and jumps around with his arms in the air.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,490 ✭✭✭✭StringerBell


    Think Keane's overarching point was who are you allowed point to and have a go at? Like who is your starting point to demand standards from in this team. You can't do it with the young players cause people say they are only young, the foreign lads cause they are new to the league etc so who do you point to and look to on the pitch and it is correct to say that will be Bruno. He's the captain and our best player, but if not him then who? Who are you looking to for leadership

    Edit: actually I should also say, Bruno has been largely dirt in general play with flashes here and there and big moments which we all love and know he is capable of but this isn't going to be enough to get us back and he is the captain, he does have to look at raising his own general standard level - he can't be a moments player and lead a team to consistent performance.

    He is wasted in this squad unfortunately of course

    "People say ‘go with the flow’ but do you know what goes with the flow? Dead fish."



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,710 ✭✭✭Caustic


    Poor decision by Bruno and then giving garnacho **** for telling him he should have passed



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 17,266 ✭✭✭✭Nalz


    Obi will score



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,576 ✭✭✭Tandey


    Where is the goal going to come from lads?

    A corner seems our only hope at this stage with how it's playing out, unless Chido Obi can work some magic.

    I really hoped Rasmus would do something today but he's appalling again...we need to get rid...he's not good enough...75 million for him tells you everything that's wrong with this club
