Manchester United's Headliners, Articles and Rumours

[Johnbass]

Time to strip Bruno Fernandes of his captaincy too!
Lack leadership qualities.

bright start, then self imploded, then relief, here are some thoughts:

- man u had the perfect start when they went 2-0 up, good goals by rashford and hojlund, RVN effect maybe?

- then man u seemed content to let porto attack with continuous crosses into the box, you could sense that sooner or later that a porto player would make the connection. porto 1st goal, de ligt, martinez and dalot are at fault as they hesitated to deal with the ball in the buildup, onana saved well but martinez was slow to react to the loose ball as pepe pounced. porto 2nd & 3rd goals were similar in the sense that samu got in front of de ligt to connect with the ball. overall defence was poor and de ligt seems to struggle against targetman type of SC

- man u mentality weak siah, even though they went 2-0 up, they were unable to kill the game off and allowed porto back into the game. their game management really kns, allowing opponent comeback has been plaguing them since last season

- rashford was terrorizing the porto defence in the first half but ETH sub him off at HT...wtf? why did he take off his best attacker? becos villa is next? really strange decision making when the scores are level. can feel that rashford is getting his confidence back, he was v direct and so hard to stop

- fernandes getting sent off in successive matches. smells deja vu fishy leh... OGS final mth in charge, fernandes got unnecessary yellow card and suspended for pool match iirc, OGS kena sacked after pool match

- improvement of attacking corner set pieces, with maguire bailing man u out with a last gasp equaliser this time. when was the last time man u scored from a corner?

- away at villa on Sun, not optimistic as villa form is better. man u is inconsistent and mentally weak, i hope they dun lose

Thanks for hilighting. Was going to do that too...after watching some highlights.
De Ligt performance was terrible. He was bullied by Samu in all the 3 goals.
Samu is big size, no doubt...but De Ligt is not a small kitten too.
Now, we all know why De Ligt was unused after Kim Min-Jae joined Bayern.
And why Bayern was willing to let him go.
De Ligt was also in the Euro 2024 squad. But never appear because Koeman's first choice pairing was Van Dijk and De Vrij.
Did Man U bought a piece of junk??
Im not at all impressed by his performance whenever he start.
This is very serious issue and luckily, the player whom De Ligt was ear marked to replace.....come out to bail the entire team out and save Botak's head.

Looks like they bot another useless player one that is worse than Macguire who he is suppose to replace...a deadwood to replace another deadwood who now becum alive...that goes to show that there is nothing great abt these INEOS recruitment scouts...overated...wasted good money to buy just average players from other teams who discarded them....nothing really change since SJR took over....it's more of the same shit happening...in fact worse than last season
