Match Thread Manchester United v Everton, KO 16:00 3rd April 2016

[PhilM]

Im not opposed to changing managers etc but i simply feel that with 4 or 5 additions we would look a totally different side.

Four or five additions could make us look totally different, but I'm thinking along the lines that one managerial change could do the same.

What's easier to do, less expensive and arguably maybe just as effective?

because we have a fake manager.....when red chite are calling us wigerton then he has to go....
even without the chit he spews out...

lollollollol Theyve called us that on RAWK's Drift since he came here. We dont care what they say....theyre irrelevant.

 

[Kantareller]

Meh, looked like any ordinary performance from this season. Stones was better than what he has been lately though

 

[Petit]

are the players not as good as we think they are or is the manager the problem??? for me the players dont seem to be playing for the manager.

I think fans of every club overestimate their own players. I certainly don´t believe that our squad is as special as everyone seems to think. Lukaku is the only exceptional player we have, with Stones a massive prospect. The rest are good but no better than what clubs like West ham, Southampton or Stoke have.

Apparently our fans were extremely hostile during the silence and also destroyed and threw flags at the disabled fans? Wtf?

One shot on target. Don't expect to get anything out of a game with stat like that - nothing to do with luck, just an appalling display.
Agree with you on Jagielka as MOTM though.

One shot was not much less than Man U. until we lost our way a bit late on.

I wouldn't say that. There were boos and the disabled section is directly in front of the away section so if flags were thrown down it wasn't intentional.

Oh and what silence? It was to applaud him. Some fans did and some didn't. It's up to them what they want to do

What was the silence for?

There was no silence mate.

We sang "Everton" while ManU did their stuff with Charlton. The flags were lightweight plastic and were just thrown at random as a "wtf are these" kind of thing, which probably wasn't a great thing to do but noone was throwing them at disabled fans, though some probably ended up in that area.

Incidentally, putting the flags in the away end wasn't that bright. Noone wanted one as a souvenir, why would we, so they were all over the place including the steps on the way out.

What silence...Sir Bobby was on the pitch !

 

[kithnou]

Just saw the goal. What on earth was he doing there? Rubbish attempt at a possible save.

Am over him, and all the Wigan dross this Manager has brought with him.

Well, any new manager would need to make the same changes (if not more if he wants to build a different squad).

I keep thinking that if martinez had a top keeper all season + We had got Yarmolenko then things would be massively different. So theres 2 players already we would need + new full backs + a top notch centre midfielder....

Hes not made any changes to the defence yet and id like to see him totally gut the "old guard" and make some very harsh sales....then he will have his own squad and we can see what happens.

When hes spent money hes spent it well (lets see with niasse) so i dont see much risk in giving him funds and seeing how he does...

Worst thing that would happen is were mid table at xmas then we make a change.

The crowd looked good with all the flags and Charltons name in the Alex Ferguson stand. Just being honest like ha

I wasn't at the game so can't really comment on what happened but giving red flags to an Everton away end is simply brainless.

OK they were celebrating a club legend and good luck to them but we've had acres and acres of hero worship about United from the general media over the post Munich decades and enough already. Let them celebrate but expecting away fans to join in the self regard is a bit much.
