Man Utd FA Cup Thread

[The Bion]

Stale performance (and I don't mean Solbakken)

This team desperately needs fresh blood

 

[Nando]

Vinny has just done his hammy too.

 

[Stan Hullis]

We just look tired

 

[Dire Wolf]

How much clearer does it need to be that we desperately need a minimum of 3 signings.

 

[PuntsWolf]

Running out of steam...

 

[Norman Deeley]

What a disappointment that was. Another game we could have won. A shambolic goal to concede, and a desperate drop in quality once the subs came on.
And the game spoiled by VAR and the absolute rancid comments of McManaman

 

[Jinky]

We don’t like scoring unless it’s from a set piece.

 

[OldManBoom]

Tiredness without the players to rotate effectively. We're trying but our season's going to be a downhill slope if we keep flogging this group of players.

Almost relieved that we've one less set of games to play tbh.

 

[Deleted Cyber]

We're absolutely shot. Desperate for a break.

Haven't won this year
Looked knackered
Poor final third decision making
Poor defending for the goal

This could be a very long month.

Hey but Cutrone scored!

Fuck it. A depressingly familiar tale with a depressingly familiar outcome and another var goal chalked off.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

We now desperately need some numbers in and very quickly.

Thankfully we also have winter break week, no fourth round weekend, and the fifth round midweek off. And boy do we need it. Running on fumes at best.

 

[Alan]

Frustrating but hardly the end of the world.

That's the nature of the way we play away from home. Nuno's style simply isn't designed to come back from a deficit reliably.

Go on then, start your We've brought no one rant !

 

[playtheace]

Cant be too dissapointed, bit more composture from quite a few players and we win that, wasnt outplayed or owt

 

[Deano]

Frustrating but hardly the end of the world.

Not true otherwise we'd be in massive trouble considering we have been a goal down in 16 of 22 league games this season

 

[The Bear]

Hardly surprising the players are struggling now. Playing nearly 40 games in 6 months will catch up with the fittest of squads.

 

[AndyWolves]

Frustrating but hardly the end of the world.

You know how many times we've come back from a goal down?

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Eh????

We have done EXACTLY that more times than we haven't this season.

 

[Dublin Drummer Wolf]

Meh. Rubbish games, but there were some glimmers of hope. Thought Neto did well until the goal, Buur showed some skills towards the end and Ruddy was solid. The team looked wrecked,Mao probably not a bad thing that we can focus on both Europa and Premier league now.

 

[Aikiwolf]

Frustrating but hardly the end of the world.

Errrm...... Which team this season has consistently come back from being behind?

 

[Alan]

"Away from home" and "reliably" were important words there

The problem becomes far worse, of course, when you sub on the likes of Vinagre and Buur for Neto and Adama.
