So pleased for Hojlund. Can see what it meant to him.
With Erikson coming back, Shaw back, Garnacho on the right and even Rashford starting to cross the ball more maybe now he'll get some service and show us what he can do.

Great second half performance, hopefully that is going to give us some confidence going forward. We have to build on this now, no excuses.

As it seems ten hag doesn't learn from the positives, i can see Garnacho back on the left the next game.

Not seen a player have such a release of emotion since that mad baldy lad from Newcastle kicked the be jaysus out of the advertising boards.
Love seeing how much it meant to him and then all.
5 or 6 teenagers played for us yesterday 6 or 7 academy players that's pretty amazing. They showed more effort and passion than we've seen from most of what the club have blown 1.3 billion on.

OK 3 or 4 were only on for 10 mind or so, but nevertheless, it's quiet extradinary.
For me it's no coincidence that eth has fallen out or challenged most of the highest earners in the squad.

Ddg sancho varane cassimero poking rashford. The club and squad can like most others only afford so many superstars on the biggest money. Ours were are not delivering enough value for the biggest money in the main they are not making the difference their wages demand. He needs to move them on and like he will get all off the books.

Ketsbia?


4.) 27 Dec 2023 20:11:23
If Casemiro is poking Rashford, he needs to go as soon as possible.


5.) 27 Dec 2023 21:41:59
No wonder it looks like his head has been elsewhere AJH!


6.) 27 Dec 2023 23:11:38
Is there any indication that they are poking Rashford mates? Or it’s simply a rumour?


7.) 27 Dec 2023 23:46:07
That's the fella fzzz. He went nuts. he'd be sent off for it now and be cancelled for cruelty to hoardings?.


8.) 28 Dec 2023 06:43:36
You guys read way too many things into stuff that is a nothing burger. Players like Varrane, Rash, Maguire get dropped because their form is poor. It happens at every club and most players want to play and don't like it and will not be happy sitting on the bench. Pep is a master at this and does not give a s. t

I have read so many times the managers has fav but eth does not seem to care or have fav. if you are doing the business he wants you to do, you play otherwise you are a bench warmer. He cares none for what we think and who should start or play where, evident by Mc playing almost every game recently.

Some players do look for a move and some fight their way back into the squad. Valdeverde and Rodrygo were struggling to get minutes in the second part of the season last year and form wise were poor if you watch any of the Madrid games, they are both back and starting most games.

All this stuff about Varrane and Cas going in Jan is noise and bs imo and not fringe players that you can sell and replace in Jan.

We will be busy and desperate to move Sancho and DVB as a priority in the coming window and may see a final decision on greenwood. some additional loans out depending on what our injuries look like is probably on the cards. The only thing that would change that is if we are forced to move on a long term target that we may lose to another team that we deem a must get.

Todibo is a player that seems to get mentioned a lot and may force us to make a move although personally prefer Tapsoda from Leverkusen but I suspect very expensive.

Come summer it will be a different story and I suspect we will see an overhaul.


9.) 28 Dec 2023 10:05:51
I hope you’re right. The right back office structure and team supporting ETH with the correct signings and backing will be a huge difference in my view.


10.) 28 Dec 2023 13:12:18
Seeing how much it meant to Hojlund just highlights how much pressure he must be under to perform. He clearly is trying his best and giving everything, through a combination of poor service and his own for fluctuating (probably due to pressure and confidence) he hasn't been able to find the back of the net in the EPL until the Villa game half-way through the season.

I'm so pleased for him, and hope he can maybe go on a bit of a scoring run now.

The frustrating thing is that for the most part he's done all the right things. He works hard and presses well from the front, his off the ball movement is good. But so many times I've seen our players either not pass to him, or more frustratingly nip in front of him to steal the shot practically off his toe (more often than not missing as well) . McTominay did it the other week with his headed goal, literally ran in and took the ball off of Hojlund's forehead.

It's like the team don't know how to play with him yet, they aren't releasing the ball when he makes his runs, or they are too focused on cutting in and shooting themselves ignoring Hojlund unmarked in a better position, or when a ball is played into him someone cuts it out to shoot themselves.

I can't imagine how frustrating that must be for him, especially with the pressure of a massive transfer fee hanging over him. Although the way he celebrated that goal shows it has been eating away at him. Even better that his first goal was the winner in a 3-2 turnaround. A deserving goal.

Jonny Evans take a bow. Outstanding tonight. Massive result, 1 we desperately needed. Our season starts here.

So Excited for today. It's an amazing opportunity to go 6 points clear. I just hope we go for it. We're no good at playing for a draw.

Pogba has to play in the form he's showing. Although Scott and Fred are his go to pairing for the big games so not sure who and in what formation he's going to go with. Hope Rash is on the left and Cavani up top. Maybe drop Martial for this one, nice to have him and Greenwood on the bench should we need them.

Whoever plays I'm behind them 100% and would be great to shut the scousers up for a while.
Cmon boys!

Nervous and excited at the same time.
Lets hope we can continue our form of late.


2.) 17 Jan 2021 13:10:06
It would be some achievement to be the first team to win in the league at Anfield since St. George's Day 2017. 2017! Incredible. But just maybe, without fans, with Liverpool's defence in disarray, with United's away form and a few key players starting to come good. who knows!


3.) 17 Jan 2021 13:47:20
Let's hope so spenno the stars seem aligned.

Ole has had so much stick in the press and on here. Yet here we are joint top of the league.
Some of the stick he's had was perhaps warranted but the majority was way over the top and a lot of it embarrassing.
We weren't match fit when the league started but now we are we're getting the results.
We are also playing the best, most exciting football since SAF left.
He got the stick so now he deserves the credit, yet he doesn't seem to be getting it.

willgreen78

1.) 02 Jan 2021 11:23:11
Mate we needed 1 points from 2 games in Ucl to progress through and are now in the Europa. So the stick Ole got was definitely warranted. Maybe some of the things said against him has been over the top but the criticism he got can't be labelled unjust. We are joint top of the league but a part of it is because of a tipsy-turby season affected by the C.V. and a bit of luck on the injury and C.V. front.

WHATEVER might be the reason for us being up there in the table but i think its time we start believing in title challenges, cause we're in one :)


2.) 02 Jan 2021 11:55:56
I think he is getting the credit from most people.
In the current season in the epl over the last 10 games we Are the team getting the best results.
The beginning to or season was a shambles as was our cl exit.
But now we find ourselves in a cup semi 1 leg at home against city and joint top of the league.
The results and reaction since cl exit has been great. Ole has juggled an awful fixture list and came out undefeated and winning most of our games. Nobody else did as well.
He deserves full credit for that as do the players.
Im very much enjoying competing. Only time will tell If what were are seeing now is oles preferred style and it wins ill be delighted with that. i'd prefer a different for dominant agressive style but if ole can sustain the results his way than that's just great.
Hopefully we can remain competitive for the whole season and come out on top.
Imo competing comes first i hope we see some evolution in our game.
This is a good squad and are getting the results now that they should be getting.
Keep the results coming and watch the cracks appear elsewhere.
The coaches manager and players have worked hard to get into this position midway through the season.
They have earned themselves an opportunity. Opportunity knocks.


3.) 02 Jan 2021 12:10:43
Don't forget last season we got beat of the scouse in January then won 11 drew 4 of our next 15 league games to finished 3rd .
Since ole has come in we have moved a few out and started to build a decent squad .
Been playing well and picking up points for 12 month, need to continue that.


4.) 02 Jan 2021 13:45:08
Maybe Ole is the guy who gets rid if the deadwood for Woodward lol.

Credit is due where credit is earned. The past few games have been an improvement. Most importantly, enjoyable to watch.


5.) 02 Jan 2021 17:19:04
I think Ole takes a lot of credit and i would say more than he deserves. This is a season with a lot of games and less time to prepare for games, i don't deny that even in this period (ofcourse) coaches play their part. But more than ever players express themselves this season and we are lucky that he don't have injuries to key players like Liverpool a new team like Chelsea and to have a true leader like Bruno which is one of the best players in the league the past year in current form, if not the best. We have a strong squad with squad depth (althought its far from perfect) and a leader like Bruno who has contribution in 52% (;) of our goals.
We can all agree that althought we have a very good squad we will suffer if we wouldn't have Bruno. Good coaches make good teams who don't rely so much on individual greatness. I know you don't like my opinion but that's my opinion and didn't change because we are tie with Liverpools. That said, ofcourse i like the title challenge and i want nothing more to be champions like you all.


6.) 02 Jan 2021 17:30:13
Top players make a difference to any team.


7.) 02 Jan 2021 17:35:15
But not having your top player doesn't make you so much worst like us. Unless you rely so much on him.


8.) 02 Jan 2021 17:44:14
Herrera how have you judged that?


9.) 02 Jan 2021 17:50:52
Maybe the results pre and after Bruno arrived? Except that can't you see the difference he make and that we rely too much?
You want the same conversation over and over? If you can't understand or you don't agree don't bother. You made your opinion clear, things aren't so bad (and i agree) etc etc. Why are you think that always its your responsibility to defend the coach? Just move on.


10.) 02 Jan 2021 18:40:19
Much prefer watching utd to city style. Pep teams bore me - especially this year.

Liverpool have been seriously effected by injuries.

Jose is turning tottenham into a borefest.

Chelsea tend to be a good watch.


11.) 02 Jan 2021 18:57:20
City are struggling with out aguero.


12.) 02 Jan 2021 19:08:36
Very few teams suffer when their most important player is out.


13.) 02 Jan 2021 19:19:54
I agree on Pep, i don't like his football this year too. I think when everything is in place he is playing good football. This year that's not the case.


14.) 02 Jan 2021 21:03:57
Really Ken? You think Liverpool doesn't struggle without VVD? Or that they wouldn't struggle without Salah? Villa without Grealish? Sure, he means a lot to us, but we can't just compare time before and after him. Before he was here, we had some serious injuries. Also, he was here in the begining of this season, and we were bad.
Anyway, if your point is that we need one or two more star players, I would agree, who wouldnt? Also, I hope Rashford, Martial or Greenwood could grow into star players, but we just have to wait.


 

 

07 Nov 2020 17:58:46
He has been slated recently and a lot of it justified but today with the pressure on and his confidence low Maguire was excellent, great to see. Hopefully it's the start of some good form from him.
We look much more solid with Fred and Mctom shielding the back 4. Both of them were excellent today, and they allow Bruno to do his stuff and again he delivered.
And what about the assist King Shaw, 2nd in 2 games. Hopefully more of that to come he has it in him to develop that side of his game.
3pts, have a good evening.

Football is not just about pace Shan. Mata is class in every way and a valuable member of our squad.

Blind rarely let's us down. What he lacks in pace he makes up in positioning and reading of the game. Also tidy on the ball.
A very good back up and utility player for me.
Doesn't deserve th stick.

I'm with Redman. Garnacho even when not on form or quite doing it he always looks dangerous, like he could score or assist.
He can go left or right and can cross the ball. And he's so young. He's going to be an amazing player.
Although I like Anthony's work rate he's sadly nowhere near good enough with his end product. Until he can learn to sometimes go right and cross the ball with his wrong foot then he'll never be good enough for us IMO.

Losing more games than we've played! That's some going Caolan, i didn't realise it was so bad, lol.

What he did last season means he deserves some time in my opinion. If we get to the end of the season, haven't made it into the champions league or shown any improvement in performance when players are back from injury then that's the time to look at it again. Until then let's get behind him!

Our season starts now. Few wins and everything changes. Personally I'm excited at what Hojlund will do do once we and he hit some form.

I'd sell Fred and keep Scot.
He's not a defensive midfielder but as a box to box midfielder he has lots of energy and has goals in him too. Good back up in my opinion.

If this is true he should not only be out of the club, but football altogether and he should be locked up.
Doesn't look good, but at the moment nothing is proven.
