Match Thread- Manchester United vs Everton- Final Preseason Friendly

[Verbal Kint]

Are the majority all depressed again. If we had won today no doubt we would be getting a song ready for top of the charts..

 

[tommytowne]

we really don't have a squad capable of anything other than midtable and thats down to all the money Brands, Walsh, and multiple managers have wasted over the years.

Leaves us with a bloated wage bill full of gash players no one wants so we have to wait out their contracts

It really is going to be down to the passion within the players, that's going to be the difference between mid table relative safety and a season long battle to finish seventeenth.
Every one of us long suffering supporters has that passion and I'm hoping someone within the dressing room can get that through to the rest of the team.

At least Ancelotti has game plans.

 

[Gaffa]

The first three goals were all huge individual errors and could have been avoided. We actually had enough chances in the game to score 3-4 goals

Not losing my head over the game after all it was a friendly. It was depressing to see the gulf between us and United despite missing a few starters.

I hate how lethargic our players are and some of the misplaced passing is criminal.

If Begovic played the first half it would have been a tighter game.

I really hope Pickford can sort himself out because he was the shambles that killed off any confidence.

 

[Thomasc]

Only 9 outfield players on the bench, so someone will be playing the full 90.

Second half team:

GK: Begovic
RB: Kenny
LB: Nkounkou
CB: Holgate
CB: Mina
CM: Davies
CM: Delph
RM: Broadhead
LM: Gordon
AM: Gray / Iwobi
ST: Dobbin

Looking at that makes you realise how absolutely horrific this squad is.

 

[Big Sams Undies]

Show me where I said it was a good thing you clown

Sensitive little soul aren’t you precious.

You implied it meant nothing but being one week away from the season kicking off, it’s a real indicator of what a shambles we are.

I was stating it's only a friendly (which it was) to try and diffuse the hysterics.

If thats too much for you to cope with then put some tights on over your knickers.

The starting line up wasn’t much better haha

 

[JLW]

Looking at that makes you realise how absolutely horrific this squad is.

And that’s on Brands! He’s had 6 I think this is his 7th window

Some good stuff going forwards, and Gray looks very useful with his pace and technique...
Just need a defensive or coach to teach us how to defend...

If Everton was a country, it would be Hiati

 

[Tubey]

We didn't have a shot on target first half. We only got chances when they put their reserves out second half, and even then we lost the half.

There's no positives to be had.

Missed the result, how did we do today?

You went to the match today didn't you mate? Was it one of those fun unlicensed coach trips?
