Southampton vs Manchester United: Official Matchday Thread - 27/08/2022 @ 12.30pm

Just give Ajax what they want ffs

Positives though, we look more organised and solid. We know about the lack of quality in the middle, Eriksen has been decent but hasn’t got much to work with. Malacia is ace imo.

I think Eriksen is suffering from the lack of movement up front. Elanga s others have said but the other two are not doing much better. We need to change it for the second half

What a ball in

I think we will be anyway.

The guy elanga. I swear he's playing against the team. Has to be.

look how their forwards get their body in and create half chances as a result. Ours just pretend to compete a bit, all closing their eyes to jump, no weight on flick ons. Speculative and soft.

I’d stick Fred and Casemiro for The Scottish Player and Elanga and push Bruno forward.

Our forwards offer nothing apart from running into space. When there’s no space they don’t have a clue what to do

Got to be Eriksen from there surely?

Ht: 0 - 0

Get Elanga off now, no point wasting any more time with him.

Getting sick of Fernandes tbh.

Clean sheet at half time

Yeah, was annoyed when Fernandes stepped up for that, it had Eriksen’s name all over it.

Decent first half. Open game. Elanga off for Ronald please.

Elanga and Rashford on borrowed time here.

Sancho needs to work on getting outside his man as well in training, so skilful yet so unthreatening.

So powderpuff up front. This game would actually suit Ronaldo.

Got to get a couple of forwards before the window shuts.

Sancho moved to the left in a preparation for when Antony comes in obviously but we need an actual CF too.
