Same with this Pogba issue. last season he was an overpriced fraud, he played poorly in big games & was getting the same flak Lukaku was for not scoring in 7 games, now we cant play without him ! . Too many pundits are too shortsighted & seem to have goldfish like memories . Probably the same pundits who carp on about the type of football we are used to at Utd, seemingly forgetting the last few seasons of SAF's reign, when after that drubbing by City at OT he went every bit as pragmatic as Mourinho |

I'm not saying they Will, but maybe wait to see how this season goes before committing their name to the history books. Best team ever? We don't even know if they're the best team this season yet. |

Won't be long before sides physically refuse to leave their box vs City & we'll see how they do then. |

It's why, despite people pointing out time and time again what a terrible defence they have, they don't concede many goals because they don't let the other team near their goal with the ball. |

Refs are incapable of understanding how important those innocuous little bumps & whatnot are. Additionally sides are too pathetic to ride one or two out & realise you need to break the first press to get at sides like City. |

Same with Barca. When teams actually got in their half, you'd think '£#%&!ing hell, it's 3 on 2 here' but that would happen maybe twice in the whole game and the team would often shit themselves and panic because they hadn't seen the ball for fifteen minutes. Or score. Once. Not enough. They don't concede many because they don't do much defending. Helps when you get let off the hook by the ref too. That would have made it a bit more interesting. |

Teams like Liverpool and City RELY on you trying to 'out football' them and pass out from the back all the time. Then they can press you and get the ball off you. When you don't do that, they get the hump. |

If you're only going to have 30% of the ball you're not going to create much, but that composure on the break is everything. Teams (including United) have tried to foul Hazard out of games to stop him springing the counter, which has been key for Chelsea in recent years. With great players it usually isn't enough. Quote:
The big concern about opponents of City is that Guardiola, unlike Klopp, keeps finding new answers. |
