A bit of everything, poor, sometimes decent, missed loads of chances, poor defending, really poor goalkeeping, poor refereeing. We never looked right imo. At 1-0 and 1-1 we looked better but at 2-1 you just knew. Edited May 15 by Kid Icarus Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicken Dancer Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 27 minutes ago, JigsawGoesToPieces said: Another game, another poor performance, really poor defensively and in the final third Would rather we finished 8th now then play against some random team from Lithuania on a Thursday night Dubravka - 4 Hall - 6 Burn - 5 Kraft - 5 Trippier - 4 Anderson - 5 Bruno - 5.5 Longstaff - 4 Gordon - 6.5 Murphy - 5 Isak - 5 Barnes - 5 Almiron - 5 Schar - 5 Joelinton - 5 Come on man. We lost a game but that’s ridiculous. We genuinely could have scored 5 goals and that’s being kind. Utterly frustrating we’ve got nothing to show for that but sadly you’ll get games like that a couple of times a season. We played well just defended terribly. In better news, they’ll stick with Ten Hag and they’ll be gash again next year. There’ll be talk of binning him, then he’ll get a lucky result and back to square one. The Man United we grew up watching dominate are years and years away. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Gleebals Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 21 minutes ago, ChrisJbarnes said: We are not yet in the position whereby we can demand a result at Old Trafford with an injury ravaged squad. What a frustrating game and result. A spirited performance and plenty of attacking intent but glaring chances missed and gifting 3 goals more or less to Man U. I can't knock the attitude of the players and the coaching has been great but ultimately the limitations of our squad players (who have been our XI for pretty much the whole season) have been perfectly demonstrated. Longstaff, Anderson (young), Krafth, Dubravka, Murphy are not players that we really want near the starting XI if we are going to progress. That and a poor performance from Trippier. I believe and hope we can beat Brentford which would be a good way to end the season on a high in 7th and respectable given all that's happened. Fail to win and we don't deserve any sort of Europe. Perfectly summed up. Still in ourhands. We just need to deliver. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LiquidAK Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 Poor finishing aside, we never stopped. I don't see that we bottled that in any way tbh, we attacked it for the full 90 and poor decisions in either box cost us. Can't say the lads didn't try Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He said I don't see the point in it, I told my team mates don't worry its a penalty, only to learn check was complete, and my achilies was shredded, I believe it can work, but it needs to start with the officials in Var getting the decisions right if the on field ref doesn't see it. Along those lines. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just lacking a bit of guile/class/craft/skill, call it what you will, but we all know top top players find the pass, see the space, produce a moment of magic, particularly in big games. Too many not quite on it tonight and two or three just don’t quite have it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

'Bottled it' is somehow synonymous now with losing any particularly high stakes match. There was nothing wrong with our bottle as you say, we just weren't effective enough. It was very similar to a lot of performances away from home this season, especially Chelsea. Edit: actually, thinking back, Chelsea was one where we weren't as committed as I thought we should've been. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 So, so disappointed with not getting a point tonight. Would have fucking loved a win and Europa League, but even Conference would be terrific. But can see us being deflated and not winning on Sunday now (hopefully that's just my blues talking). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ridman Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 (edited) So annoyed at the Diallo goal. He was unmarked with ample space inside the box from their very first corner, would have thought we'd adjust after he had two decent chances from the corners. Was sure Howe would go over it during HT or the players having enough awareness to not leave him free in the box every corner they had.

Was sure Howe would go over it during HT or the players having enough awareness to not leave him free on the far-post every corner they had. Thats on the coaches - they should see that and start fucking managing the players. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too many not quite on it tonight and two or three just don’t quite have it. I did think they looked a lot sharper and more aggressive in the press than us, and that was a surprise. I always thought they had more quality in their squad, just surprised they seemed to want it more. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
