I don't agree that they don't look bothered. We're just completely outclassed. It takes more than effort to compete in a game like this.
I know he's league 1 (and i like him) but he just ran past the ball, Rashford didn't have to do anything. We all knew it was going to be a difficult night, but we're making it easy for them.
I’m not sure I agree with you here. Yes we are making poor passes but it’s because there is decent pressing and not great options on. also there is the chance the occasion has got to some of the players which is understandable.
Get some subs on at half time and have a go second half. I’ve been disappointed with the goals we’ve conceded but also you have to recognise the quality of the opposition. Some over the top comments on here, in my opinion.
Why do half my posts from the App look like gobbledygook, but the other half are fine, yet they all look OK in the browser?
We were never going to be in this game at all, but Roberts has thrown the towel in and whoever at the club thought O'Keefe is a footballer needs sacking
I think he was over compensating because of his lack of pace he was worried rashford was going to push it on the right. But anyway I think it’s daft criticising him for it as he was isolated against one of the better premier league strikers
I hope people aren’t going to go OTT, in their reaction to how we’re coping against a team with a squad worth ~£850m
Back 3, Back 5, Back 4 gotta feel for players it's been a mish mash past few games. DC needs to get a settled side, get some consistency followed by results and quick, doesn't take long to lose a fan base
Their movement and pace off the ball is brilliant the gulf in class is very tangible We came here and were the better side 30 years ago. Sad really
Regardless of the opposition, the ‘defending’ for each goal was amateur. And again, don’t get me started on this goalie. It’s for that reason - like Saturday - I’m loathe to be too critical of anyone further up the pitch. What chance do they have? I saw us concede three horrific goals just a few days ago against Stevenage. So, you know. It’s just how it is. Fingers crossed United chill out and it doesn’t get daft out there. Vimal and Baz the best of the bunch after 45.
This is the most frustrating thing, we obviously can’t match their quality so at least try and control what we can do. Unfortunately not doing the basics are costing us dearly.
Just the manner of the goals Marc, very frustrating 2 very very poor 45 mins of football in 4 days where we've offered up nothing and conceeded 6 cr'ap goals mate. I don't think for a minute anyone expected anything tonight, but worse teams have gone to Old Trafford and performed better against better United teams.
Steps to improve defence 1) release o keefe from contract. 2) Roberts play minimal like hourihane and concentrate on being a coach instead.
