Players who consistently have let us down either though a lack of ability, inability to adapt or a lack of effort this season are Valencia (past his best but has been a very good servant) Young (tries hard, often decent but too often exposed and targeted), Lukaku, Sanchez and Mata (all three work hard but either have lost a little of what made them great players or don't have the attributes to adapt to how Old wants the side to play.

All bar Lukaku are in their 30's so have experience but are lacking something else.

So does it make sense to keep playing them in key games if it is clear they are likely to perform poorly?

Does it make more sense to play the likes of Dalot, Chong, Gomes and Greenwood. Sure they might also let us down, but they are more suited skillwise to how Ole wants the side to play. Also they will only learn from playing.

Doesn't it make more sense to play a player who can learn from and improve from poor performances than playing players who can't?

Maybe it's time to give the kids a chance.

And if they fall flat on their face shappy? How does that work out for them?

That depends on how the situation is handled.

If Ole throws them under the bus Jose style then probably quite badly.

If he puts an arm around them tells them it's all part of the learning curve, and let's them play and express themselves then it will likely go well.

Also it will tell us a lot about their mentalities. Have they got the strength of mind to take a set back and grow from it. If not then they might never fulfill their potential no matter how high it is.

I'm not suggesting throwing them all in at the same time. One or two in a game will do them wonders.

Most of our talented youngsters have stalled because they weren't given a chance in the first team. They kept playing youth football or reserved level and were never pushed to reach the next level.

Look at Rashford for example, he wasn't the most highly rated youngster in the academy at the time, yet he showed he has the right mentality and siezed his chance when it came. But if he was never given that chance where would he be now?

Give the kids a chance, stop Molly coddling them, they need to be given a chance. When the players they would be replacing are playing so poorly anyway what do we have to lose?

I don't know why we are complaining about losing to this psg team. PSG have some top class players and have had the same squad for a long time.

We are a new time with some average players and we also had injuries to Martial and Lingard which effected the game.

With 2 forwards out, we have no other option than to bring on 2 amongst Gomez, Chong or Greenwood atleast on the bench.

It's transition we might of got carried away some times failure is good long as we stick together and learn and address our weakness. For such a massive squad in numbers and no one to bring on to add to our attacking play is bad but we knew that. Let's suck it up and move on.
