[Goater=Legend]

Made of glass this team

 

[samuelyeboah]

main takeaway - our players HAVE to start practicing crosses. the end product quality is embarrassing

 

[FantasyIreland]

Not one for the neutral

 

[Mariosfireworks]

Jesus fucking Christ, this game isn’t getting a chance

Cue 1 minute added on

 

[lancs blue]

Typical Moyes team stopping play by players going down.

There's not been much to stop so far.

 

[Chi-town blues]

Absolute shithouse tactics from Moyes here. Expect the play acting to continue

the chosen one;)

 

[footballmanager]

antonio is farked

 

[East Level 2]

I know its going to take time but were just still reluctant to play Haaland in, hes making all the runs.

We've spent several years watching Sergio and Jesus in positions to make runs but rarely getting the through balls from midfield.

If you had Fabianski in your FF team, does he get clean sheet points, or is there a minimum time he has to have played?

 

[Mancini’s Pastilles]

So why buy him then

That's the question. I thought. Maybe we would change our style to play to his strengths.... Looks like we want him dropping into false 9 getting involved in build up. Which isint his game at all. Harry Kane does it well for spurs

I had concerns about this game, WHUFC are a strong side and they’ve had a big preseason so are match sharp.
We’re not at our shiny best but we’re very disciplined and have been in almost total control of the game since the first four minutes.

 

[IcriedwhenTueartleft]

everything that has been good so far has come from Cancelo's movement and runs

CORRECT!

 

[Benarbia’s Backheel]

It’s just not effective wing play from Grealish. And that pains me because I love him!

 

[wolviedinho]

Kev needs to drop deep, no space or bring on Mahrez and put Foden into Gundo role

 

[the-ecstacy-of-eight]

How many mins are they going to need to add on for this stop-start 1st half? About 10?

 

[lol yank]

The back has no earthly idea how to play this shape. This is fucking stupid

60 minutes

 

[bobmcfc]

Moyes had a word with Antonio. Realises his team is as flat as Stockwell's cola and is adopting the shiithousery we are currently wittnessing

 

[RayCTID]

It is going to take time getting used to having Haaland in the team
