    Misplacing 3 passes shouldn’t leave us that wide open

    Dalot and Mazraoui absolutely bomb forward before Kobbie even turns around

    Ugarte over Casemiro in midfield would allows us to defend higher up and minimises the issue of being one man down in defence with our defence being higher up and less of a gap

    Build up deep is what he wants to do ideally long term once players develop but with Rashford (confidence player) and Garnacho (lacks quality) starting and it being against Liverpool, I think we could’ve focused on going long more to get more chances but we had better xG so our chance creation wasn’t awful it was lack of quality that got us

    I’m not sure how much it changed but would like to see this for the second half, this tweet is a bit dramatic for a game where we had level chances and conceded 3 goals from shots worth 0.90 xG, felt mostly down to quality and legs not chance creation or tactics but open to counter

    you’re a more optimistic person than me, but yes reducing the gaps has to be a priority - the gap between zirkzee/bruno and the rest of the team due to the stupid ‘press’ we use now (no sense in even trying it without mount) is shambles.

    Second half was better but Liverpool were clearly just seeing the game out, far less intense but they still forced turnovers and we could have conceded another 2 (though we could’ve scored 2 as well)

    I also think we are quickly approaching the point where the squad has lost faith in ten hag and even if he somehow figures it out he won’t be able to get the players to buy into new ideas.

    Did the keeper make a save today? He’s another one that lets us down massive

    Martinez has looked half the player he was since he came back, it’s f***ing sad man.

    Lowkey he was only fine pre-injury

    Luis Diaz expected goals today were 0.24 in total. He scored 2

    The main problem is that it’s not just Casemiro constantly misplacing passes (he’s been doing that for over a year now) it’s almost everyone in our team that couldn’t give a proper 5 yard pass. Liverpool had a good pressing system today and our players were absolutely clueless on how to handle it.

    He was the best defender at the copa this summer. It’s just something with this team. We got most of the real bums out and we’re still useless. When your defence is getting run through and your back line is Evans Lindelof and Kambwala it’s understandable, but when it’s proven players like De Ligt and Martinez there’s something else that’s going in your team that isn’t making sense. I don’t think it’s ever been more clearer that Erik is just not gonna be doing it for us.

    I think if you rewatched the game you’d find instances we won the ball off them

    But they have a shape. It’s so easy for Eth to harp on about individual mistakes but the whole system is f***ed

    We played so many hospital passes it just showed how totally out worked we were

    We basically don’t have a keeper

    He got signed for his distribution but i think that’s mostly s*** as well

    That’s not true at all.

  • Sep 1, 2024

    So many parts of our game we are just so far behind the competition on.

    Feel like Amad gave us much more than Nacho and Rashford did at least and if Zirkzee was a better finisher the scoreline would’ve been less embarrassing.

    WOW 3-0! That’s very disappointing!

    Him saying trophies are an ego thing for a manager hits different, now that Ten Hag talks about his two cups every time he gets criticised

    ETH has legit entered the Rafa Benitez zone of being rattled imo

    Absolutely hilarious hearing him waffle on sky sports about XG and then say we’ll see at the end of the season

    You won’t have a job by the end of the year let alone season 💀

    It’s actually hilarious how we’ve gotten the manager wrong for a decade. Like you actually have to try to do that.

    I blame Ole for a lot of what’s still wrong with the club so I definitely disagree.

    But he for sure knew how to coach a team to score goals!
