Match Day Thread 2017/18 Premier League, Cups & Euro Watch

[Diego]

Rashford, Lingard & Martial up top in a 433 would be much better imo, especially with Mata and Henry Ryan feeding them.

Just no at the moment.

 

[Diego]

That's going too far surely.

Mata and pogba and matic as 3?

More like it

No wonder Mourinho thinks the ref had a good game, he did let Ashley Young get away with an elbow on Tadic.

 

[Zanjinho]

Just no at the moment.

He was doing the business earlier in the season, as was Lukaku. What's happened?

 

[saintanton]

Oiy, we don't just kick it to the fast lads like some

Maybe you should try it?

Serious question, Diego - what's your opinion of Martial?

He will get done for that because the ref didn't see it.

Very good and wrongly used.

BBC Salford will cover it up

Tony M isn’t being used the right way.

Plus I didn’t my think Jose trusts him either.

That is the main problem, he just doesn't let flair players react naturally.

 

[saintanton]

Very good and wrongly used.

He's obviously talented.
He came with a big rep as a kid, big fee, and started off well but doesn't seem to be growing enough.
I don't watch enough of your games to be certain but he seems peripheral atm.
You might see this as a wum but it isn't- do you think Mourinho's cautious approach is holding him back?

I think you can probably say that about a few manu players, eg pogba seemed to be sitting far too deep today, he is far too good a player to be stuck there.

Only seen that Zapacosta a couple times, I expect you would be more likely to see him in his van outside a school

I would think he was played wide as a safe option. Play through the middle and his terrifying pace would be better used runn No at CBs

Not sure about that, Jose rotates between Martial and Rashford, it seems to work because which ever comes on as sub has a massive impact with fresh legs around 60mins. I think both have been more productive with assists and goals as a sub.

its about time Motson was ****ed off from match of the day

He was terrible 15 years ago, now it's just painful.

I think he is set to retire after this season though isn't he?

 

[mighty_stevie_g]

Rashford dithered so much today with getting he's shots away.

Fair play to Tadic for not reacting like a little bitch as well, should take more than an elbow to have a grown man rolling around on the floor
