Werner must have won some Oktoberfest raffle to become a professional footballer. I can't think of another explanation.
Oh he's finished I suspect. Spent millions on players and in all fairness I'm struggling to remember a worse performance from a Utd team the past years.... Ok probably the 6-1. Anyone remember that?
City or Liverpool would scored double figures today. Utd were so lame in every respect - most notably in central midfield and in defence, when leaving Spurs players unmarked. It really was abysmal. Just the confidence boost Spurs (or any team who would have played Utd today) would need. I would have sacked ten Hag at half time (not that he would have been there to start the game if it was down to me). Spurs played an attacking line up with only Bentancur a recognised central midfield player, yet still dominated midfield easily. A training match for Spurs
And most of those millions have primarily gone on players directly from or via the Eredivisie. It’s as if he’s forgotten there’s a whole world out there full of great footballers and just wanted those that made him feel closer to home. The Eredivisie has been a decent supplier to the Prem over the years but literally trying to build an Eredivisie team in the Premier League is frankly dumb.
That's to be expected and tbh I'm fine with it. Let other teams take the spotlight. We just need to keep our heads down and keep working hard. There is no question all the attention and speculation after our opening 10-game run last season severely effected what Ange was trying to do.
What a superb performance. If Sonny had been fit today we would have scored 6 or 7. Yes Utd are shocking and Brighton away next week will be a tougher test but 4 wins in a row we are finally getting our rewards after a decent start to the season where we have dominated games but not got the results. What a player we have in Micky Van Den Ven , no CB can bring the ball out of defence at such pace than he does. He was great but Kulu and Bentancur were outstanding today. Relentless in every aspect. Gutted that Bentancur will be banned soon just as he’s hitting the heights of his first season under Conte. Kulu in this 8/10 role is fantastic. His engine, his pressing, his vision and flicks is a joy to watch. Huge respect again to Johnson he’s in a rich vein of goal scoring form and Solanke is such a good target man . Everything sticks with him, he presses so well , great at defending set pieces just needs to be more clinical. I hate to criticise players but Werner shouldn’t be near our match day squads . I know he works hard but his misses and lack of end product will cost us. Ange has to utilise Moore now. Hopefully he starts on Thursday and I expect Gray and Bergval to come in too. We’re looking a really good side now.
Really liked the performance. It was only Man U though, looking forward to some more serious challenges ahead.
