Like someone posted earlier - Hojland doesn't know the runs to make, if he hasn't got that basic striker knowledge at this stage of his career - he'll never have it.
The stats show that Hojlund and Kirkzee had a dreadful goals ratio (about one every four games) playing in pub leagues. The same is true of Antony but they were all bigged up in the media. They are Championship level players. There is nothing in their record that suggests they have any potential but they were signed for big fees. Liam Delap is better than all of them. Total supidty by United. Happy days.
 
No idea what you've been watching this season but a lack of effort is precisely what many have an issue with in Phil this season.
I disagree. He has been doing plenty of running but not being as smart as he used to be finding space. He may be mentally tired but he has never been lazy. He has just never got going this season after being brilliant last year. Mental fatigue and injuries have affected him, like so many in the team. When we get into a settled formation, like the Newcastle match, he will be back to his best. He has played a hell of a lot of football for someone still so young.

united are like Sunderland were a few years ago - they've got all the players that no-one else wanted, let's hope the end result is the same.

I really believe they have been lucky not to be in a proper relagation battle. The three bottom teams are off the scale bad this season and will go down with very low points tallies. I can't think of a single match they have deserved to win. They fluked it against us for starters. They have been rescued by late goals from the ball being lumped into the box in most games they haven't lost.
 
Remind me again, how much extra did these idiots pay in order to get Amorim to break his contract and join them immediately? Almost makes the fee they paid for their amazing centre forward who's definitely better than Haaland like good business.

Astute.

was just on You Tube and saw the thumbnail for a rag based vlog its got Howson's face on it and the strap line is "its like Groundhog Day - its getting worse "

The pedant in me thinks that the whole point of Groundhog Day is that life repeats itself exactly the same day after day. So by definition I cannot get worse - fuckers are so thick.
 
Fast forward to the penalty shoot out. :-)

Is the penalty shoot out really over.? You can never tell with the Rags. I’m waiting until tomorrow to be absolutely sure.
