Match Thread Manchester United v Everton - Preview, Match Report & MotM Poll

[Mr Happy]

Anyone thought we'd get a win there today is delusional. Point at best. One win in ten years. We move on. Bad day. Poor performance. That's it.

 

[WA Toffee]

Passing was absolutely atrocious today. Short, long, forward, sideways, every player gave up possession far too easily. Lack of moving towards the ball didn't help either.

Hopefully that is everyone got their bad game out their system and the next couple of games can see us playing with a bit more cohesion and purpose

 

[steele]

Thought we played descent football, but Manshite were the better ones. We are where we are , so no hope for points today. We are improving, but so are the clubs around us. This will be toe to toe until May

 

[Swartzy]

He's not doing anything with the ball right now. This is all theoretical.

Theoretical ?
Do you really understand anything about the game, or is it all just games consoles teaching for you..

I swear you only appear when we've just had a 'mare' on the field.

It only needs brief glimpses of a player to know he's got something about him, you'll realise it with every talent out there ( and I don't mean youtube highlights )

Garner has all the attributes to be a top player, from composure, to knowing the field around him without needing numerous touches and glances. He knows his nxt pass before the ball reaches him. He looks up, he looks forward and plays on the front foot.
The lad wants the ball.

I would say your gonna have fun chewing your own words, but you'll never admit to being wrong.
You'll be sat in your closet praying for an injury....

Outclassed. Had the feeling of a pre-season friendly, where the manager is trying a formation out to see if works. It doesn't. I suppose you could charitably say that Dyche was hoping to catch them out by playing a slightly different way, but seemed pretty foolhardy given their pace up front and our lack of pace in defence. Bit of a reality check and a lot of pressure on the game against Fulham

Atleast it was today tho, if your gonna make an error with selection/tactics then make it against a team you weren't really expecting much out of.

It's all about picking there heads up now!!!

Ha made really crappy day just a little bit better . Thank you

 

[Joey66]

Pity our 2nd half performance was totally missing in 1st half as we were to open with no midfield....

 

[Neiler]

Happy with the performance today, we don’t look like a team that should be in the relegation zone.

No shame in loosing today, Utd the better team with more quality, that’s what 100s of mills gets you. They had better quality. The first showed it, the second avoidable and thats all that was in it.

We go again - bring it!

There were glimpses of Godfrey's talent two years ago. Whatever.

I genuinely don't see any of that. I think that's the player people want him to be, not the one he is.

 

[gonetomorrow]

DCL would have caused their back line more trouble today.

 

[NilSatisOptimum]

Tall ask to beat Mancs at home this season. Worked on that pass to tear Keane and Tarkoski new A hole for pace as Godfrey pushed the press. Luckly we have England's number one between the pegs kept some hope. Simms fluffed his lines... Coleman legs or lack of made a show today for their second, always the danger. Pickford man of the match for keeping it respectfull.

 

[Daveysgingerlovechild]

Dominic Calvert-Lewin would have caused their back line more trouble today.

Who? @davek

 

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

Man U, 29 attempts on goal, 11 on target!

 

[MisterJ]

I'm not that disheartened by today's loss, I still think we have more than enough to be safe.

We didn't play badly, we didn't give up and I don't think we were outplayed. We tried to be positive in the first half, it left us too open which was recognised and we were much tighter second half.
