VARAAAAAAANE

[–] Motecuhzoma 8 points 1 year ago

Football’s back boysssss, come on United!

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Hoping Garnacho's decision making improves, he has held the ball too long a few times now.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Yeah, bit frustrating so far

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

We've bought players, sold players, and have had a reasonable summer and pre season, yet I feel like I'm watching the same team that was labouring through the last third of last season.

[–] Shade 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Looking forward to see Højlund starting for us so we can see Rashford in his best position. It's such a waste having Rashy playing as a nr.9. Love Garnacho tho

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

100% He’s come in from the left twice and created 2 chances

[–] RamesesKnibs 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

We seem a little static while Onana has the ball, giving him very few options to play out

[–] Shade 1 points 1 year ago

Not gaining any meaningful progress from it. Hopefully this will be fluid throughout the season

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Been struggling this game. Looking really exposed on wolves counters. Haven't been dealing with their pacey carriers well

[–] RamesesKnibs 4 points 1 year ago

Come on lads!

[–] RamesesKnibs 4 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Think we need to see some changes soon, think Eriksen would do a decent job. Get Rashford on the left too

[–] Shade 3 points 1 year ago

Yeah. Sancho as nr9 instead of Rashy would be interesting. Thought he looked alright there in preseason

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Good call on the subs. They've definitely changed up the game since coming on, especially Sancho imo

[–] Skyraptor7 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Onana isn’t bad is he?

[–] Shade 2 points 1 year ago

Looked good tonight. I think he will show his worth better for the time to come.

[–] RamesesKnibs 4 points 1 year ago

Not the best half of football I've ever seen. Decision making in the final third needs to improve, but Wolves seem like they're just everywhere

[–] kameecoding 4 points 1 year ago

Sancho looks great, physical fighting for the ball, hopefully it's not the sub effect like with Garnacho

[–] Shade 4 points 1 year ago

Ten hag walking like he's going to lay down the law in the dressing room. I suspect we will wake up second half, and we need to honestly.

[–] RamesesKnibs 3 points 1 year ago

Ten Hag clearly being cautious over Lisandro's yellow

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Fuck yes!!!! Great ball from Wan Bassaka with numbers in the box

[–] kameecoding 3 points 1 year ago

uff, shaw

[–] thegenesis 3 points 1 year ago

Boys gotta wake up!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Slow start, but our press has worked well so far. We’ve caught them in a dangerous area a few times now

[–] Skyraptor7 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

No half measures from Martinez

[–] Shade 1 points 1 year ago

That was more of a Rojo tackle. They don't fuck around in Argentina

[–] Motecuhzoma 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Uhhhh is Licha ok?

[–] RamesesKnibs 4 points 1 year ago

He was 1 or 2 fouls away from a second yellow is probably the thinking I reckon

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

No Heart Attack FC plz. Not from game 1!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

We might've just gotten away with that one... Could've easily been a penalty

[–] RamesesKnibs 2 points 1 year ago

Yeah reckon if the ref gave it originally it wouldn't have been overturned

[–] RamesesKnibs 1 points 1 year ago

Yeesh we got away with that one

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I missed that. Why was Martinez taken off?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Already booked and looked possible to get another.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Feels like we were very lucky there. If it wasn’t for Wolves poor finishing, this could have been very different. But a win is a win, I’ll take it, but we really need to improve from here

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Has the rule for subs changed?

I thought it was 5 subs, 3 sub opportunities. We subbed at HT, then Sancho and Eriksen, then Facundo... And now Rashford?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The half time sub doesn’t count for the three

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Cheers!

[–] RamesesKnibs 1 points 1 year ago

HT doesn't count towards the 3 times IIRC

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Guess I'll comment from my alt while lemmy.world is down again. I said I'd take a cagey 1-0 win against Wolves, it's definitely been cagey so far

[–] Skyraptor7 1 points 1 year ago

Twitchy bum time

[–] Skyraptor7 1 points 1 year ago

We keep playing long balls but kept loosing the ball in their half due to a height disadvantage

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Onana channeling his inner Bailley there ffs.

[–] kameecoding 1 points 1 year ago

antony, what the fuck was that, 3m pass not executed.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Christ rashford had been poor, so off the pace.
