Match Thread- Manchester United vs Everton- Final Preseason Friendly

[Papa Shango]

Some proper anarchists in our fanbase that'd rather see us relegated with Benitez than see him succeed.

Not one person wants that. Not one.

If we’ve have had this result last season, there would have been a barrage of excuses for Ancelotti.

Let's be honest, there are still making excuses for Ancelotti. He was crap for us, not going to try to paint a rosy picture any other way.

 

[MACCA75]

Terrible manager. Terrible team.

Rafael is calling Rondon right now.

God if it did happen the funniest thing would be some lads on here trying to put a positive spin on us signing him and saying it makes sense...

 

[GoldenToffee]

I thought this Rafael character was supposed to make us defensively solid? That was the worst of Martinez style performances. Digne marking Maguire beggars belief

To be honest our players are absolutely thick and highly unprofessional and probably forgot or couldn't be bothered following the manager's instructions once they actually set foot onto the field

 

[Noisy noise annoys]

To be fair,
-a quality player would have never missed townsend’s chance.
-iwobi put too much weight on his pass (again lacking end product as always)
-was never a penalty.

sorry but we just can’t dress this up.
I didn’t think Gray and Townsend did that badly. Two of our more lively players I’d say alongside Digne who did okay.

All players hit the bar
He was inches away, it could have been any player who crossed that
We have all seen them given

 

[Alanbileysfeathercut]

Hindsight.
But what did we expect.
Soon as I saw this pre season I thought it was an odd choice .
FSW will have learnt we are as shabite as he thought, nothing new.
Players out,I hear,nothing new.
Long slog ahead if you can be bothered with it.

To be fair I would, if it was like 2014 or something.

The signings so far are underwhelming. Really hope they are backup but this may not be the case.

A quality player doesn't go for power there, he had plenty of time to pick a spot.

The signings have been "fine" in a they wont be awful way. I actually think Gray has a lot to offer.

But they wont be transforming us either.

 

[Bluestar]

Far too many players missing to read much into that. A whole front line and half a midfield.

DCL, Kane. Richarlison, Gbamin, Gomes and Sigurdsson all missing. We were away at old Trafford with more than half a team missing.

I hate the result, but it doesn’t surprise me at all. We had no front line.

100%

Not been backed
Players are a disgrace (except indulged James)

And so on and so forth.

Hence why the board rightfully dont listen to the fanbase anymore.

Two really unsuitable managers for us one after the other really.

 

[blulouie]

Any decent anti Benitez chants for when the season starts?

They already started at Old Trafford.

Goodison gonna be like a cauldron.
