Ole's lacks rotational nous. It's a game like this where the likes of Chong, Gomes, Greenwood and co need to all be starting. No need to have Martial, Rashford, McT and co playing. This where you give youngsters a chance.
that win streak the worst thing to happen to United :mjcry: :lolbron:

I understand Ole being lost and not knowing how to rotate and sub but is there anyone on his staff to give him advice?

Every single match is the same thing. Up one goal and under pressure, no subs made until opposition equalizes and very little to zero tactical adjustment.

And it's not just in game changes, it's formations as well. He was dead set on playing 4-2-3-1 because it worked during pre-season in China. It never worked when season started but he kept playing it until the Liverpool match.

He didn't want to get embarrassed by Liverpool so he changed to 5 in the back. So now since it worked against Liverpool and Chelsea he sticks with 5 in the back at Bournemouth :gucci:

Doggy your wing backs are Ashley fukking Young and a very defensive full back Wan-Bissaka. What are you doing :mindblown:

I think he wants to keep another path to the Champions League open.
Also given which teams are left in the league cup it's probably the easiest trophy for Man Utd to win.

I understand, but this is the group stage and it isn't like Man U were drawn against the Lazios, Sevillas or Portos of the world. We have a pretty straight forward group. Let the youngsters get playing time when the stakes aren't as high.

We haven't even gotten to the next stage where the 3rd place UCL teams drop to UEL.

Brescia's Mario Balotelli has been called "arrogant" by the club's ultras group as it defended Verona fans after some racially abused the Italian.

The striker, 29, kicked the ball into the crowd and threatened to walk off the pitch after being abused in Sunday's 2-1 defeat at Verona.

"We have no doubts Balotelli is to all intents Italian - even a Bresciano," read a statement from Brescia ultras.

"But the arrogance that he continually gives off is unjustifiable."

Ederson out on Sunday. City's physio needs to hit the unemployment line.

We used to have a good physio, but Liverpool snapped him up. Once again, if this were the other way around they'd be screaming "oil money" "buying the league" "human rights abuses" "Six"

Anyways, we move. Kyle Walker has a 100% save rate.

One of my brehs said. He would love to play in Italy, main reason being he would make it his mission to score the winner in every away game. The fans have paid to see him run a one man train on their mothers, sisters, aunties and girlfriends and they cannot do anything about it. While his celebration would be Mexico 68 style.

But Bravo is still there right? I mean Bravo ain't Ederson but this is still an experienced keeper that's played for Sociedad, Barca and the Chilean national team. This ain't some Sunday league scrub.
