What I saw at Newcastle was Utd consistently giving the ball away trying to thread the ball through the eye of a needle or just not taking the necessary time to judge the pass correctly.
Rashford is rightly getting slated for his lack of effort but is he being told to stay loose and be ready for the counter, is Martial is Garnacho?
ETH has said he wants Utd to be the best team in transition and is that why we are constantly looking for the out pass that is cut out, 9 out of 10 times?
ETH does not seem to want to change shape or tactics, he hasn't changed anything and why I ask, as the current ideas are clearly not working.

Garnacho should be the one out of those staying loose for the counter, he already has a better end product and football intelligence than Rashford. It’s time people saw through this oh he’s a local boy so is Man Utd and he will come thru it gimmick, he is overpaid and lazy, he does not put effort in, he does not run, he is not a role model or barometer for any younger player at that club, and it’s not for the first time and it’s not under the first manager he’s been like this, let’s not let a decent run last Feb fool us, as bad eggs go he is one of them, I don’t care if he was born on the centre spot of OT he is a big issue at this club, of course not the only one, there are several who should have left this club a long time ago and other bad eggs, but this club is in dire need need of players who can handle this club, players to lead the way for the younger lads or to galvanise the team on pitch when it’s not going well, at present what do Nacho, Mainoo, Hojlund have, a sulking Rash and a whining Bruno, yes injuries have hampered us but there is a big summer ahead and big appointments to be made under the SJR footballing side regime.

I don't actually know anymore what it is ETH is doing in training, is it the players who can't get to grips or don't want to get to grips with what he is implementing (whatever that is) or is it that ETH isn't really that good? I really hoped he would be a success but when I look at Villa, Wolves Newcastle, Spurs, Brighton i'm envious of the football they play, the commitment, the work rate and I wonder is it all down to our poor players or more to it than that? As much as i'd be happy to see 6-7 players shipped out I have serious doubts about ETH ability to coach in the PL.

It's pretty simple, those clubs you mentioned don't have a 350k a week star boy on their team who can't be bothered running, challenging or working hard. A player who is the worst player on the pitch on the most money and clearly is undroppable.

And they have decent man managers, not a out of depth school teacher.

Oh hi tripplelock, not seen you here before. Perhaps you know some inside info from the player's side? Perhaps you could pass on that the fans do not feel sorry for players that have to train hard, show up to training on time and actually run and press in a game. These players are disrespecting the fans and the club. End of.

It is being reported that current staff are worried for their futures if SJR bid goes through.
I should hope they are worried, as the senior management have hardly covered themselves with glory, in fact quite the opposite.
1.) 16 Oct 2023 16:54:21
They should be more worried at the rate Jred's are multiplying.
Mass extinction coming and all that remains is a world of Jreds.

Mumbles
Don't forget the many skins of Ken.

Mumbles ?
Jred you need to use Google Password Manager or something, you've ended up with more alt accounts than MAZE!
4.) 17 Oct 2023 02:08:38
What if I told you jred, ken and Maze are all the same person ?.
5.) 17 Oct 2023 08:44:32
I'll come clean, I was jrred before jrred3, not jred and certainly not ken or Maze.
I occasionally post but have been a regular reader of the site since it's early days but cannot remember what my user name was back then.

What if I told you that GDS2 Giggs to Sherringham along with Shappy and Ahmed are one of the same too…., strange ain’t it!

You know, we could all be different personalities within the single mind of a rather tormented football fan - we could each be a part of Ken. :○.

Good article Shappy but let's be honest, Utd are playing a 3-4-2-0, as we do not have a striker, we are effectively playing with 10 men. That is why we continually get over-run.
Bruno is also an issue, I love his work ethic and he has buckets of talent but he is continually out of position, giving the opposition multiple opportunities to exploit the neglected space.
I had hoped Mount would have provided serious competition for Bruno but alas he can't stay fit, so another £50M getting burned!
I know we need better for the LWB but I think if you can fix the issues up top. we will see a large improvement in our results.

993, I thought you were being tongue in cheek when saying "David Luiz would improve our midfield mobility no end". I didn't realise it was a typo, still chuckling to myself now!

the lack of goal threat is THE issue, of why we are in free fall. We need strikers, that is more than one, if we are to turn this around. Hoijlund gives 100% no doubt about that, which is a minimum of what we expect. Zirkzee is just not good enough for the EPL, not his fault and should never have been booed off the field.
Jose had this lot marked, he wanted rid of Martial, Rashford and Pogba, he knew he was not going to be able to mould them to his style of play.
You could point the finger at Ole, sit deep and hit on the counter and that is what this squad are best at but not what the present and the former managers want a team to be like.
Maybe over the next few weeks RA will get the chance for the coaching sessions he wants and with some of the younger players to join in, maybe.
What I do not want to see, is the team reverting to the counter attack, RA needs time and possibly a few additions to get on top of this and implement a controlled and positive way of playing.

He won't achieve his potential anywhere, btw he has bags of it, his attitude is all wrong, he's a modern day playboy. Even Oli had his card marked when he said, he should concentrate on his football more and leave the off-field distractions alone.
He and his playboy mate, Jesse Lingard, typify what is and has been so wrong at Utd for so long.
Far too rich, far too young, which is a modern-day football problem and not just at OT.

I'm the same as you Rewz, really looking forward to the match but also a little disappointed with our performance.
Just hope our next 2 games, both at home, are enough for the manager to start to get some cohesion going with the tactics and also getting something of a tune from the under achieving alleged superstars, before we go to Arsenal.
Although must give a shout-out to Onana, who in my humble opinion is having a really good season.
