Wisdom Body Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 It should be said that the Rijkaard-early Guardiola days are ever more distant memories now. Martino's team has incredible talent playing average football. No dazzling Ronaldinho-Deco dynamism or crushing Xavi-Iniesta possession here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Colossus Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 Mm, it's like he tried to add more strings to their bow (ability to go direct when needed, higher tempo in getting the ball forward) and it's come at the expense of the ridiculously high level they had the things they did well down to.

TBF they just lost their 2nd most important player to injury while their best just came back. Not a good result, but still have enough about them to be the 2nd best team in Europe.

Froggy Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 Imagine being a 25-year-old Man U fan and experiencing your team being even slightly shit for the very first time, having to doubt your manager for the very first time. Must be completely fucking alien http://i.imgur.com/FTpiJtE.png Nobody even picked up on it. Delighted you fucker. He should definitely be starting over Wellbeck, but outside of being a really good poacher there's not much else. I would say he's underrated, but he certainly didn't look it for Mexico last year. No. Just no. Hernandez has been terrible this season with every opportunity he has received, be it off the bench or a start. I was calling for him to play more earlier in the season as well but he has shown he doesn't deserve it. Welbeck has been brilliant. Without him we would be well and truly fucked. The biggest catastrophe today was starting Young on the left when Januzaj has been amazing there. His crossing is brilliant and so he plays him through the middle where he can't use crossing. It's made far worse when we have a brilliant #10 on the bench. It's clear for everyone to see it should have been Januzaj on the left and Kagawa through the centre. Mind-boggling. Fletcher not starting was a joke as well. One of the most important things against a good side is to keep the fucking ball. Carrick and Fletcher is as good as we can get for that. Fletcher won't rush forward and won't lose the ball. Instead he plays Jones who has no control over the ball or his fucking face. Both Young and Jones were only back from injury as well. Moyes man. Fuck. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Making is seem like I'm being a dick. I'm genuinely curious. Froggy has only known winning, but they put Smalling on chasing a lead today. That was 100 percent new shit to him. I'd like to know his thoughts on the season so far. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Froggy Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 Real talk, though. What's it like? Not trusting the manager for the first time in your life. I'm finding it hard to explain to people right now. I'm determined to stick by Moyes. I want the longevity and I believe he can be successful at Manchester United. However, it's the simplest of tactical decisions that he just isn't making. I don't understand it. I can maybe, maybe come to accept that he doesn't rate Kagawa, some managers just don't fancy a player. He's making mistakes all over though with numerous players and they just seem so glaringly obvious that it's hard to come out and support him afterwards. He's been terrible in interviews as well and you can clearly tell he's feeling the pressure. He said this today for example: We didn't score in their box and we didn't defend well in our box. I thought we did well in between the two boxes' date=' but then did not do what was required in the crucial areas.[/quote'] Is it just me who is looking at that and thinking, "what the fuck are you on about David?" -------------------------------------------------------------------- Previewing this post I can see a few lol's down below. I genuinely think Mike was asking an honest question here, if he wasn't then fuck you all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashley17 Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 It just seems to me any support for Moyes is based on a whim. There's no evidence that suggests he will be a success, he has no history of winning things and he's never won away at most of the big clubs. That's not the be a and end all as he had an inferior team, but even fucking Pardew has managed that Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
