8 draws at home from 15 games, and no team in the league have less goals at home than United.

{Ed033's Note - Terrible. Mourinho out, obviously 😋.

Yeah that's got to change. We missed ibra today. Couple of chances and balls put into the box where he definitely would have been.

01 Apr 2017 20:23:11
I'm not sure I would got that far but that pretty shocking.

01 Apr 2017 20:38:29
Got one of the best away records in the league though.

01 Apr 2017 20:40:19
And there must be teams who have scored less goals than us at home lol.

01 Apr 2017 21:14:34
Angle there have been plenty of games like that, that ibra has played in .

We always miss players that aren't playing, if miki wasn't playing today we would of missed him.

I thought we parked the bus?

You'd miss a striker who scored 26 goals more though.

Couldn't agree more jred it is funny how people keep saying how zlatan might have won us the game, while forgetting that he started the earlier 7 draws we played out at OT, if was goimg to win us could be draws he might have done so at least once of the 7 draws we have already played out.

While also forgetting the goals he HAS scored to win us games. Those could have been draws or losses as well. Liverpool game remember. Like it or not, he has been our saviour this season. He has single handedly dragged us to the position we are in.

Actually shan he hasn't, he has one of the worst conversion ratios as a striker among top 6 clubs in the league, he has missed nearly double the amount of sitters than the next worst player in the league, yes he has 26 goals but given the amount of chances he has missed and how we have to play football that suits him rather than the team because he doesn't have pace means he actually hurts us more than he helps. If martial or rashford have the team set up to play around them and get similar amount of chances they would get similar nos too.

I remember the liverpool game shan, but i also remember the chelsea game where he missed a point blank header when score was 1-0 or the city game where he messed up a shot when there was no gk to beat or 1 of the 7 OT draws we played out when he started there were a fair few easy chances missed in those games, yes he has scored some absolute beauties and that was all down to him but he also has missed sitters galore to even that out, he certainly has not dragged us to any position.

I read somewhere that if Zlatan had the same conversion rate as the top scorers in Europe's top five leagues then he would have scored 48 goals for us this season so far. That's an extra 22 goals.

This shows two things, one we are creating a ton of opportunities for our main striker, and two he is being very wasteful.

Maybe if half those chances we created we created for other players like Mata, Martial or Mkhitaryan then maybe the team wouldn't be so one dimensional and we might have scored more goals as a team.

Zlatan demands the ball by his very presence, which is making his a vacuum for all our chances. That would be fine if he was converting enough of them, but the 7 draws we have suffered at home in which he has played he has missed 46 chances. If he took just one of those in each game we would be 14 points better off. Or top of the table which ever way you prefer to look at it.

How about Rashford missing one on one with the goalkeeper three games running? But yeah that must be Zlatan's fault because the team were still creating for him. I cannot understand how you cannot see the influence Zlatan has on this team. Yes he misses chances but then everybody does. You simply take out Ibra's goals from our tally and see where we end up. Replace Ibra with Rashford or even Martial (who I think is a better player than Rash) and you will still see us outside the top half.

Keep singing songs for the kids and that will take us nowhere. Its not the 90s anymore.
