Match Day Thread Manchester United v West Ham

Yep, but he was there to miss. I was more pissed off with the chances Rashford and Zlatan missed

 

Can I change it slightly...

Plan A..........Cross the ball to Zlatan

Plan B..........Cross the ball to Zlatan and he may knock it down into nowhere, where it may fall kindly for someone in a red shirt to smash it in.

I honestly don't think defences are scared. Even when we got into great positions, at no point did I think the West Ham defence looked worried.

 

Such an easy finish there for Rashford, why he decided to go across the keeper instead of sliding/curling the ball past him - trying to be too clever. Zlatan looks low on confidence. He should've let the ball run and just smashed it in without looking. He needs a couple of games out of the league imo. Bring in Mkhytarian and play Rashford or Rooney (or both) up front.

 

Is Martial injured?

 

He's perfectly fine. Didn't have a great game against Arsenal tbf but he still deserves to be played regularly ahead of Rashford on the left, considering how well he played there last season. Unfortunately Jose disagrees...

“The way the team played last season – and I’m not saying better or worse, just different – was probably more adapted to Anthony."

“Probably he was feeling more comfortable playing that way, at that intensity, at that rhythm of the ball possession and ball circulation. So probably he needs also some time."

“But in our squad, for these positions, we have Mkhitaryan, (Jesse) Lingard, (Memphis) Depay, (Juan) Mata, (Marcus) Rashford, Martial. These are probably the positions where we have more options."

“And, you have one opportunity, you have two, you have three – if you don’t bite then somebody comes and takes the meat.”

 

ahem ...

 

Can we help you at all?

 

You should be asking for help ...lol

 

Why

 

Because you're doing so bad? Just a guess like.

 

Oh right, is roofer a Chelsea fan then?

 

We're be looking for another new manager soon. Also the ref was a joke today giving everything West Ham way.

 

Listen, **** that bollox. He better ****ing put out the right ****ing starting 11 when we play these ****ers in the League Cup, that's all. It's not ****ing hard ffs.

 

I think he's now on Mourinho's list.

 

He'll put out his "punishment" XI and we'll win comfortably. Shaw, Mickey, Schwein, Schneiderlin, Martial, Carrick...most will get a game.

I've never been a big fan of the guy.

 

Schweiny was on the bench today, back in the good books

 

I noticed that. Bit humiliating for Mourinho. Maybe there are so many people on the list that he's struggling to get a match day squad together.

 

I don't mind IF he can deliver the quality of football he is capable of. The problem is he's not delivering, so all the traits ppl dislike about him are fair game atm.

 

Never humiliating to accept you are wrong if somebody proves you so, it happens to the best of us.

I thought I was wrong once but it turned out I was mistaken

 

I can't stand the bloke. Him being United manager won't change that. His confused team selections don't help.

If Denis Wise had signed for United it wouldn't have made him less of a ****.
