Manchester United v Leeds Utd : Official Match Thread 20/12/20 4:30pm

Starting to suspect the pundits are all pre-programmed and Ole smashed the narrative yesterday, so they had no idea what to do.

Hope they get relegated playing football the way it's meant to be played.

Losing by shitloads is the way Leeds are meant to play tbh

Leeds had three shots on target. We had 14.

I have a mate who supports Leeds. He text me saying it could have been 8-8

I don’t think I’ve seen a more arrogantly inept tactical set up by any manager visiting Old Trafford ever. As long as our midfielders were prepared to work hard they were guaranteed the freedom of the park all game long.

It’s no shock they looked superb.

And if my auntie had a nob she’d be my uncle. The things people say to make themselves feel better. 10 would not have flattered us.

absolutely brilliant game of football yesterday...f***ing Leeds Scum

How can a game be 10-8 when you have 3 shots on target ? Anyway still buzzing still laughing 😂

Exactly. ABU’s are starting to get a bit nervous again I think. Leeds brought a water pistol to a gunfight.

It might even play in our favour. Everybody has downed expectations so when we do win a trophy or two, it will piss on everyone’s parade that much more.

If they want to call ole and Utd how they have been, what does that say for the rest of the “best league in the world”?

I think we are at a crucial part of where we are as a team, I genuinely think if we invest in one or two solid players in jan we can challenge for the league. It won’t happen because Ed is a tight arse. I would even sacrifice a signing in the summer if it means we can get a couple of quality players in.a CB and a DMC. Get rid of pogba in a swap deal for a player and who knows?

I have zero confidence in our board to actually think that far ahead and even have an ounce of competitive nuance .

G nev is the primary culprit for fawning over anything but united. It’s getting cringey and I wonder if fans of the opposition can even sense it. The yellow for Dan james yday was an absolute disgrace , nowhere near a dive and it was brushed off.

Then the penalty for martials , his um-img and ar-ing over it when it was blatant.

same with some of our fans yesterday.

he knew what he was doing with that line-up. tactical masterclass. he f***ing hates leeds, does ole. he's experienced playing against them many times, he's knows how vile they are, and you know he wanted to make their first league meeting with us a complete catastrophe on their part.

i like how they're called "let's be having you" too, one of the most basic footy lad bantz cliche phrases there is.

Even post match ole was saying how it would have been better if we had fans in. Could tell he really would have loved that with fans cheering in the stadium .

I for one love Leeds style of play and hope they don’t change. Basically get Bruno to make space for the two CMs as they man mark and hit them on the break

Well they “had us” and lost 6-2😂. Media and pundits lapping up their style of play, ask any Leeds fan how they feel and I bet not a single one would say “ we may have lost 6-2 but we playing attacking football “ and if they do , well then they are a product of “Twitter /Instagram football” where it’s about likes and retweets to feel involved in the game. At that point why even bother watching

i've enjoyed watched Leeds the few times i've seen them play....very open and attacking football

his style really hasn't changed much even since his days at Bilbao when they came to Old Trafford

Micah Richards once again brilliant aftermatch analysis. Explaining fully how well dan James played.

Yes, there is a great deal of truth in this.

When was the last time 8 goals were scored in a match, none of them by a striker?
