Talked a big game there.
Shame he and his team were shit. We talked a big game before too. Don’t really want to hear it anymore. Go and show it because the words don’t align with the performances. All these defeats seem to be followed by how we need to learn.... are we learning? Could we get a move on and SHOW we learned? |

Progression as a footballer, is perhaps another debate. He has definitely gone backwards in terms of performances over the past 12 months, at least. How many times has he performed well in a game this season. |

I genuinely don't know what to say. I don't think i've seen a united player put in such regularly awful performances and still get picked and not even get subbed.
His form since jan/feb has been largely appalling and he's got progressively worse as we've reached the end of the season. It's £#%&!ing astonishing how bad he's been. |

I'm a big fan of his and of Ole's. I can accept the decision to keep playing him in the second half of the season, despite the fact he was injured, rather than leaving him out and treating the injury until it was cured, but it baffles me that he wasn't brought off tonight.
Dan James, limited though he is, would have been more use. Or we could have brought Amad on and moved Bruno left, even. I can't believe the manager sat and watched them take the initiative in extra time and not tried to address the situation. For me, that is where we lost the game. It was cowardly and they could sense that. Both he and Bruno have looked knackered since before Christmas, and we've continued to play them week in week out. That cannot happen if we have any ambitions to win trophies in a 60-game season. We have to rotate our best players to some extent so they are not £#%&!ed come the business end of the season. This, as much as anything else, is the reason we must strengthen in the forward area of the team. |

I wish I could say it’s the first time Ole’s displayed his cowardice. Fergie would have been bolder. He didn’t buy players and never give them a crack.
I’m getting tired of this whole ‘weak squad’ shit. A large part of why they’re described as weak is that Ole won’t give them a chance to prove otherwise. Strip away the hyperbole and rarely challenged truisms from many of that starting 11 and the truth is most of our best technicians, our best actual footballers started on the bench. |
