The Prophet Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 The 0-6 v Liverpool was the day I started my boycott against Ashley. I've come to expect poor defending, a lack of effort or a one off general stinker, but I have never, ever seen a manager instruct his midfield to join the defence to form a ten-man shield at 0-5 down before. It was astonishing viewing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Icarus Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 The scoreline wasn't as bad, but I actually thought the 0-3 to Sunderland was much worse that season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The performance was shocking, but I think it was because it was more of a shock. We come off good performances and results at home and a good performance v Benfica, and we put that in. But as I posted above, all 3 of their goals were counterattacks and shots from outside the area and we had a wrongly disallowed goal at 0-1. The 0-3 in 2013-14 was far worse imo, because the mackems dominated the game from start to finish. At SJP. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the level of the game they are managing at the majority of the players are incredibly talented, and so you have to find the smallest margins everywhere you can, and the intricate details are often what can indeed make the difference. Also having a well thought out plan against the different opposition you play, and also well set out instructions for your players in various situations is absolutely critical. This man is sat there talking about passion and desire. Passion and desire with no direction usually equals complete and utter chaos! No wonder he had Man Utd trying to press Liverpool so recklessly yesterday. This man is a buffoon. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

HaydnNUFC Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 (edited) Gary Neville not covering himself in glory yesterday or today on Twitter. The more he defends Ole the more he loses credibility on Man Utd opinions. He's such a hit or miss pundit, speaks well on many things but also gets far wide of the mark on others. For example, he was absolutely bang on the money on the Ashley years here and the damage that was done to NUFC, but was so wrong on Bruce, Benitez and the comparisons between the two it was beggars' belief. Bizarre. Edited October 25, 2021 by HaydnNUFC Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bizarre. Aye, he hit the nail on the head last week about how it’s not our fault the Saudi’s bought is and how it’s better we are at the same table as them then keeping them at arms length. He also spoke well against the ESL, but on the other hand he was firmly in agreement with Project Big Picture which would have caused more damage to English football than either our takeover or the ESL.

The Prophet Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 (edited) Neville is a great analyst and his tactical breakdowns on MNF tend to be quite insightful. As a pundits though, he allows his personal relationships along with his prejudices to sway his opinions and as a consequence he's quite poor.

The first one was different, all 3 of their goals were breaks and shots from outside the box, we had the wrongly disallowed goal at 0-1. Still shit, but the 2nd 0-3 we were comprehensively outplayed by them at SJP, which is unforgiveable. 0-1 v Sheff Wed in League Cup. Almost all home games v Leicester since they came up. When Fulham stuffed us 3-1 in the Championship, missed a late penalty too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
