Essential The Official Football (Soccer) Thread - New season, same old United

[LiveFromLondon]

Can’t complain. We played terribly and somehow stole a point away from home.

Couldn't watch but was Teta trying to play slow possession football away from home instead of on the counter again?

Sheff Utd are woeful even Newton Heath can't fukk this one up.. or can they?

 

[SCORCH]

Should have won but we're not good enough right now to win games we dominate. Losing at home to Forest and Villa, drawing with Bournemouth away and now this. All winnable games but we've somehow picked up 2 points from 12.

We were just getting dominated in midfield. Didn’t have a single shot on target during the first half. Lo and behold, once he took Jorginho off, we scored two goals and nearly won the game. (Albeit, with shocking goalkeeping from both sides).

He didn’t play today but we’re really missing Partey in midfield.

Was a stinky game but credit to the boys for pulling off a comeback win. Hopefully Partey is back because Jorginho is a liability against teams that have energetic pressing midfielders.

What the hell is this lineup?

What are the chances of Arsenal going for Osimhen? (Silly question, I know).

He needs to get out of that wasteland

I’m hearing Liverpool have all but agreed a deal for him. Our reluctance to sign a striker is unforgivable. I’d take Toney at this point.

We want to make sure Sheffield United get their first win this season.

If Arsenal waited until the summer, I’d say they have a decent chance but I can’t see them spending £100m+ in January. We desperately need another striker now and Toney is available so I reckon we’ll go for him instead.

 

[Instant Classic]

Yes Jesus. Trossard offers more up front. Jesus is one dimensional and soft imo.

I do feel we need to upgrade from Jesus, but I don't think Trossard is consistent enough to replace him. I think we look for somebody to challenge Jesus in the summer or wouldn't be shocked if we look at Toney in Jan

[Ohene]

over Jesus? There's no way he starts over Martinelli imo.

Yea jesus is shyt

Feels like a 1980s game with all this hoofball.
