Re: Manchester United's Headliners, Articles and Rumours
 

Yeah... wrong result, wrong score... only thing I got right was our team selection... :p

It was just reading up on teams' player availability and guessing based on managers' past history for the EFL. Utd tend to use the EFL Cup to blood youngsters and give reserves game time. Guess it was too soon for Telles, who didn't look 100% fit. Or perhaps just lacked that game sharpness.

I didn't expect West Ham to make 10 changes too, though. Guess Moyes was saving his first 11 for the weekend too.

This time I disagree with u ilovepantyhose..the knucklehead is using a wrong strategy n thinking that will always make himself fail n shoot himself in the foot if he thinks that by neglecting the Carabao cup, he can win the Premier league or the champions league or the FA Cup :(...to be worthy champions U must treat each n every game seriously like our neighbours in blue last season when they won practically every match they played

By the time 2 or 3 seasons cum, not only the deadwood r cleared but he himself will be cleared too...not sure why he is still keeping so many deadwoods for ???...when they can be easily sold n the money used to buy new n better players who can help him to win trophies

Re: Manchester United's Headliners, Articles and Rumours
 

Can't believe it, wat I said is true :eek:

Re: Manchester United's Headliners, Articles and Rumours
 

The sooner we get rid of deadwood including Infant Mgr OGS..... the closer we will be to winning silverware, until then just endure the misery of watching United being humiliated time and time again because the team is mindless without a capable manager of quality, substance and experience.

Re: Manchester United's Headliners, Articles and Rumours
 

So this means that West Ham B team is still much better than Man U's....wat a shame for OGS

Re: Manchester United's Headliners, Articles and Rumours
 

The next match is against a resurgent Aston Villa team that almost went thru the next stage of the Carabao Cup.... Hope they don't implode again in the last minute of play... hate to say this, now all the opposing teams know their weakness n hit them hard during the last few mins of the game when they tire out n loose their concentration to score either their equaliser or their winner or thrash them with as many goals as they can :eek:

Re: Manchester United's Headliners, Articles and Rumours
 

Ronaldo and Cavani were good footballers with years of experience. No way OGS can coach both. But you still need the other players to get the ball to them at the right place right time. The defence had to hold up and goalkeeper have to stood tall without conceding.

So buying players is one thing and they need time to train together to play a system. Also some players dun play a certain system well.

OGS likes to play 4-3-3, 4-2-3-1, 4-5-1 which is sometimes confusing.

If you look at those teams that lift silverware to understand that Guardiola, Tuchel and Klopp like to employ one system with correct players.

Re: Manchester United's Headliners, Articles and Rumours
 

Glad that u agree with me Pogba that good quality n world-class players like CR7 n Cavani maybe even Kane n Messi don't need any time to gel into any team they play with :)...they shd be coaching OGS instead...so it looks like good players like Sancho that cost them nearly a bomb r those who still need time to gel into a team b4 producing the fruits that they r so well known for, for their new teams...

yes, understand football is a team game need all depts to help each other out to score goals but there was once i saw a match in which CR7 played in during his 1st spell with Utd abt 12 yrs ago that he won the game for the Red Devils single-handedly when he saw all his other colleagues were sleeping on the pitch, grabbing the ball from midfield n running all the way to the opponent goal mouth n kicked the ball in past the helpless keeper gasping for air..:eek:..that is how powerful a footballer is he :)

Re: Manchester United's Headliners, Articles and Rumours
 

We should be going back to the same team that started against West Ham in the league, for Villa's visit:

De Gea
Wan-Bissaka, Varane, Maguire, Shaw
McTominay, Fred
Greenwood, Fernandes, Pogba
Ronaldo

Hoping to see a 'McBeek' trial instead, though.

Villa will likely play Ings + Watkins. Plenty of firepower, should be good for a goal. McGinn and Bailey fighting to be fit, hopefully they are not ready to start... :p We could see old boy Ashley Young start too.

Man Utd 3 : 1 Aston Villa

Re: Manchester United's Headliners, Articles and Rumours
 

Thanks imom for yr pre-match info against a re-surgent Villa tomorrow night in the league :)

Abt the scores tomorrow night....Lawro's prediction is 2-0...think yrs is more realistic but i think its either a draw 2-2 or a win 3-2 ...not sure wat is jones', charlie's n paul's take leh ??? :confused:

Re: Manchester United's Headliners, Articles and Rumours
 

Dont think he can survive past tis season if he don't at least win 1 silverware or trophy for the club after spending so much money on world class players like Sancho n Varane...no more excuses for him...his successors Conte, Zidane n BR r already being lined up n ready to take over...can't wait until 2-3 seasons later for him to deliver anything to the club...btw I m not sure if he knows the easiest cup of them all to win is the Carabao cup

Re: Manchester United's Headliners, Articles and Rumours
 

Charlie prediction: 3-1

Re: Manchester United's Headliners, Articles and Rumours
 

That's the same as imom's :D

Re: Manchester United's Headliners, Articles and Rumours
 

But this chap always have lady luck upon him.
The team always churns out a fantastic victory when he is one game away from getting sacked.:D
