Undefeated since our last game, we continue to crush any team put in our way. Not even our fellow conquerors of Europe, the mighty Forest, can hope to resist the onslaught that is coming their way when the whistle blows. I predict a 0 - 3 win to mighty United, either that or they will score first, our heads will drop and scrap to a 2 - 1 defeat. Which United will turn up, nobody knows.
Why is Hojlund not in the squad Ffs if this is not an injury then I'm fcked off. If it is an injury then I'm fcked off.
Hojlund is unwell, but Antony is back to bedazzle and confuse the Forest defence into submission, so no worries there.
Same starting line up otherwise with Antony on instead of Hojlund and with Rashford playing up front. Please PLEASE keep Garnacho on the right, put Antony on the left. Surely? SURELY? Right?
On that btw, if you think about it all 3 of Rashford, Antony, Garnacho can play anywhere in that front 3 so their movement up front, the cross overs etc should absolutely bamboozle any defence.
Was thiking this. No reason why any has to be fixed into any position in this front three, they can move about at will. Hopefully!
I honestly can’t get my head around this. That front three should be causing problems for any defence all day long.
I wish we weren't so slow with our passing. And there was better movement from our players. They're so easy to mark.
Can anyone see any coordinated strategy when we have the ball in the final third? We just seem to pass it around to each other with no real purpose to creating any opening or clear cut chances. Bruno will then try and thread a ball through the eye of a needle which gets cut out. We regain possession and just repeat the same thing over and over again.
And when we do get it in the box like Eriksen just did there's only one United player in there and 4 Forest players. ****e
I do wish we'd be more direct. Not sometimes, all the time. This pass around bollocks is exactly that, bollocks. Forgive me if I gag, but Liverpool's football is way superior to City's. **** all wrong with a long ball over the top or to the corners.
Far too rigid, ETH should try swapping Garnacho and Antony mid play as most of our play is going down that right side. Move it about, shake it up, it shouldn't have to wait until half time, these things are fluid.
Exactly this. But at least with City they do it with purpose moving the opposition players around and creating space and openings. Ours is pointless.
It's bad news we've no striker in the pitch. Genuinely think that McTominay could be an emergency centre forward with 20 mins left if no one can create a chance or shot. Just stick him up front for a bit. Last resort!
