United (A) Post Match Thread

[Rhapsody in Blue]

Boring game but a draw is an ok result I suppose. 6th straight clean sheet and Stones motm display again. Looks like we have sorted out the defensive issues, now we need to start scoring. Wouldn’t mind some more creativity up front.

I think right now, considering injuries to Aguero and the mediocre players we've bought (Torres not one of them), we're a top 6 side.

We could finish in the top 4 but wouldn't surprise me if we don't.

We need a top box to box midfielder as Rodri isnt it and a top striker like Haaland etc.

Pep wants to play that double pivot 100% i just think he dosent have the players to play that way. its probably why we are after Denis at Monchengladbach.

We get to the box and nobody is there and inverted wingers seems old hat. Need to mix it up offensive wise as defence looks good at last.

Its true though isn't it?

Peps focused on making the defence rock solid and a natural part of that is losing some attacking edge.

Gradually we will probably get more of the goals back while maintaining the defence but clearly the side is transitioning and getting a few 0-0s is probably inevitable.

This forum has shown me that there's massive number of blues who don't have a winning mentality. They would rather see us field Foden, Bernardo, Torres, Mahrez with no DMs, get humiliated 4-0, blame Pep, the board, the universe than accept the fact that sometimes you've to grind through these matches to win the league. Really shambolic behavior.

Genuinely thought that people would be praising this City side. Remember when everyone said that we can't grind out a 0-0 draw, that this City side is impatient, lacks bollocks, nervous when the first goal doesn't come within 5 min? Now we're proving all of that wrong, and people still hate it.

Run? That’s an exaggeration more like a slow jog

Mate, I did say I was being positive ;)

 

[citymad]

Kev is meant to be one of the best players in the world isn’t he ??? Playing like jono shelvey this season ffs

Get a grip, you’re totally wrong. Some of his passing today was sensational. There’s most no one on his level of thinking to take advantage. He’s carrying the midfield on his own !

God I miss Sane.

Despite the fact United are shit it could well be seen to be a good point in time. Get the impression it's been a bit of a shitshow on here today.

It was boring and there was lots of better stuff I could have used the time on but they didn't get their weekly pen and we didn't lose.

Micah just said he was impressed with the way maguire defended, ffs we didn't attack, not the sharpest knife in the draw is he

probably can't even spell drawer...
