midds Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 Rashford doesn't look like he even gives half a fuck at the minute. Looks like he's playing for himself rather than the team too often, decision making is poor, often takes the shot rather than passing it on, running into 3 defenders too often, head's down and the body language is terrible. He's clearly not shit but there's something very wrong with him atm Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last season the shots were flying in, this season they're into row Z. He's quite fortunate that our only good winger is Garnacho or he wouldn't be near the team.

It's ironic because the one time he made the right decision and laid it off Dalot curled one in. Every other time he was in a similar position it was head down and take a shot he knew would be blocked, trying only create an opportunity for himself rather than his team. He either needs an arm around the shoulder or a massive kick up the arse, no idea which Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's been horrendous and Ten Hag continued to play him and defend him. Then eventually he was forced to drop him for a few games which should have been the kick up the arse. He's capable of being a good player, but not sure he has the mindset to consistently deliver. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always dwells on the ball and doesn't get it into him on time before doing something daft. He is so awful man. I'd be fuming if I were Hojlund.

Garnacho is greedy as well but he's still learning and getting better. Antony passes backwards. There's a fantastic player in Hojlund just begging for good service. He should have scored a couple tonight though and only has himself to blame. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if it doesn't work for him he has the defence under pressure. Proof we don't have to sign overpriced shite as well and can rely on our scouting network. He cost £400k from Atletico.

Mattoon Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 They were good for the win, thought they played well in the main, given their opponents. Thought Wigan might punish them for their poor finishing, but a super soft penalty finished the game as a competition. I thought Garnacho and Mainoo played well, but Rashford was pretty horrific again. He seemed to amble around and was selfish on the ball, the first goal was fortuitous due to another Rashford greedy shot that luckily came back to him.

Be great if we could play league one opposition every week. I see that your cup draws are still on point. From Wigan to Newport or Eastleigh. Kind of like when you got Charlton at home in the EFL Cup quarterfinal last season, which was by far the easiest fixture you could get.

You boys get tough cup draws this year and think you're hard done by. You opened your cup runs last year with games against Sheffield Wednesday and Tranmere whereas ours was Everton and Villa. The season before it was Burnley and bloody Cambridge whereas ours was Villa and West Ham. Stop making stuff up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Possibly - PL sides at the earlier stages often rest players, don’t take it as seriously. I’d have taken Fulham at home (rather than away) in the draw yesterday, particularly with their fixture congestion via the Carabao over an away trip to say a bang up for it Sheffield Wednesday. Take your point on Rochdale and Tranmere who should rightly be cannon fodder though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
