United (A) | PL | Post Match Thread

Just a mega lack of quality. The players we have let go over the last few seasons would still get into our team. That sums it up
 
Absolute dross from start to finish. To be honest we looked like we’d be happy with a draw right from the kick off. No width, no pace, no fight, we lost virtually every duel, gave the ball away constantly and never looked like scoring.

Other than that……

That's a risk whichever game we introduce him on currently. Or do we just waiting a couple of years until we've steadied the ship?

He started 20 games last season for River Plate so I would say that's pretty regular to be honest.

Pep has literally just (finally) admitted the players are not able to do what the system demands.

Pure changes incoming.

A good manager should be able adopt the system to players as well. His persistence with Silva and Foden is baffling.
 
Out for a family meal. So it looks like I missed a game worth missing.

It is what it is. Both teams are mid table quality and probably will be next season.
Personally i think Pep has zero answers as the game has caught up with him and ie is largely responsible for the complete shambles we find ourselves in. I cannot see him turning it around.
We look awful, dull boring tactics that no longer work, look like there is zero coaching done, no player has improved in the last 18 months where he used to bring players on in their game. Our conditioning/medical team cannot keep us fit, less said about the set pieces coach the better, we cannot shoot and our defending remains unimpressive and attavking even worse.
We have been horrid in the market, bought wingers who offer fuck all, Doku can leave as no improvement since he arrived, zero creativity in midfield, no pace and yet in January we spent 200 million inc 60 million on another slow but good player who cannot get in the this pathetic midfield.

We went into the season with 1 striker which is shambolic, no cover for Rodri and an aging squad got older with bringing back an even older player.

Teams like Villa have deeper and better squads than us now and you wouldnt put a bet on us beating anyone with the current setup.
A keeper who doesn’t want to be here, no proper full backs, 1 striker only who is out injured and no goals at all throughout the squad, it took a howler v Leicester fir us to score and never looked like it today either.
Be a miracle if this squad with the team and tactics he is chosing gets into the CL

If we’re that bad, and our squad is midtable quality and Villa have a much better squad than us - then how can Pep be such a bad manager to get us to 5th, above Villa in the table ?

The truth as always lies somewhere in the middle.
 
Major overhaul for next season just to challenge for top 4 I think, don’t think we will get it this year.
