In the presser Pep said to control united's threat on the fast counter
you'd have to sit back - but that's just not the way he wants to do it.

It's a weird combination playing a high line without any fuckin effect up front and by that inviting the opponent to his only threat. That's asking for trouble.

Well, sounds a bit naive when you know your team isn't in the best moment and you just have to survive 15 mins to steal 3 points at OT, being 1-0 up.

Doesn't give me the best feeling looking ahead to CL crunch time. It's Pep, too stubborn. It will sadly happen again.

We won't get to crunch time in the champs league, so there is that I suppose

Walton is a clueless twat, today isn't the first time he's embarrassed himself.
Today he was laughed at live on air by a panel of ex pros.
A couple of years back he showed he didn't know the laws of the game when chatting shit about Bernardos goal against Villa, the one scored after Rodri tackled Mings.
He incorrectly said the LOTG said it shouldn't have stood when in fact the LOTG at the time said it should.
How this clown is still in a job as an "expert" beggars belief.

Yes he looked a right tit….tried getting out of it referring to giving an advantage to the attacking team. Utter bellend

The more he tried to justify himself, the bigger the tit he looked.
Tried to say the laws are geared to benefit the attacking team to back up his argument.
I'm not Suttons biggest fan but he hit back pointing out lines drawn for VAR offsides used to rule out goals to shut him up
Walton is stealing a living and anyone who listens to him needs to give their head a wobble.

Didn’t think we were only referring to Utd games but I can think of a few where they were difference makers in them games. VK header 2012, Yaya semi final, Sane comes on 0-0 at swamp scores and assists we win 2-0. Not that rose tinted mate.

I'm not saying they weren't good players, I'm saying the idea that we parachute them into this side (who have a fair few good derby memories themselves) and we'd win all our big games is pure nostalgia. They all lost a fair few themselves, including some pretty shocking comebacks and limp performances.

In control?

Didn't Rashford miss a 1 on 1 and also have a shot cleared off the line?

We seem to struggle to understand that passing a ball around boring the life out of every person watching the game won't be enough to get us a win.

First half they had a few goid chances we had 0. I thought (second goal aside) we defended quite well today. Ake looks committed and that helped. Second half we were comfortable without theeatening much. That goal changed everything as they had ran out of ideas and belief...MOTD will have utd all over us of course.
 
Putting Southampton to one side, we've dropped 5 points against Everton and United because we can't keep clean sheets not because we can't score. The main problem with the season is that we need to win by 3+ goals to see the game out - the United home game was more telling than that. That isn't sustainable, and that why Pep is desperate for more control. It's also a constant recurring issue that if we concede one we are *very* vulnerable. Again, that is why Pep wants control. I don't have the answer to those problems, and of course I'd like to score more goals, but we should be seeing games out better.
