JonnyF Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 Decent result against Spurs, considering they got schooled in the second half. Top 5 looking hard to achieve, 8 points behind that and a vastly inferior goal difference so it's more like 9. Chelsea finding form under Poch as well so it could be a tough second half to the season. A decent run in the FA Cup might be the best hope now.

NE1 Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 We are giving far too many goals away from corners and free kicks. I always thought De Gea in his younger days was frightened to come and help his defenders out with a punch , but he did improve as he got older. This keeper appears to be glued to the line . he needs to start showing a bit of authority in the 6 yard box or we will keep conceding , and he will have to go.

It was a strange choice to swap a great shot stopper like De Gea for a ball playing goalkeeper like Onana when you haven't got the defenders who can receive the ball and mount a phase of play. Especially when letting De Gea go for free and paying 48 Million for Onana. One of many strange decisions from Ten Hag. Like paying 86 million for Antony. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JonnyF Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 Looking forward to the Wolves game. Solid mid table clash with 9th facing off against 11th. I wonder if Rashford has recovered from his Dublin hangover yet (literal, not metaphorical)? Will Ten Hag pick him or will we see another Sancho situation developing? I'm going for a 1-1 draw.

NE1 Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 It is a good job we can attack , cos' we cannot defend . That Dalot needs to go , he just doesn't defend well , he is either playing people onside or too far forward to defend against his winger. We have lost a lot of goals through his bad defending in the last 2 or 3 seasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
