Will never complain if we lose against Chelsea, Arsenal Tottenham, Liverpool etc. in fact, I am very happy to have embarrassing losses against them as long as we play well. But against mid and small clubs, no excuse makes sense.

Ellexy:
Our squad and Bournemouth's squad, which is better?

Don’t bother. Always saying our players are worse. I guess they pick the very bad few ones and make conclusions about the squad based on that. Every small team has a better squad.

Goosethetruth:


Oga,
Bournemouth are right now better than Manchester United.

Goose, just fly away. You don’t know what you are saying.

Btw, Amorim needs to get his act together. These Bou, Wolves games are what we need to hold body o. We can’t be losing left and right.

eph12:

Yes the players are currently worse. Better accept that. Any coach that comes here without clearing most of these players will end up sacked in 2-3 years

You are also joking this morning jare. It means if we swap team with Bou today, we would be winning? As in, Bou players are better than ours? Wow, this excuse is insane!

Goosethetruth:



The league table seldom lies.
Manchester United are currently a mid table team living on past glory while Bournemouth are on an upward trajectory heading into the 5th position on the league table.

Abeg, this is BS, Chelsea was 13 or 14 last season, is your assertion correct? What you are saying is we are not better than Bou at all? As in our players are worse. Abeg abeg, go back to bed.

Loool

I am sorry, but it’s not looking good at all.

maik99:


Zirkzee's worst quality is that he is too casual
Would be better as a freestyler

Not winning headers, not able to run, also can’t press because of his size, yes hold up play is okay, but you need to be in possession of the ball first.

Goosethetruth:


Luke Shaw that should be playing that position is a constant hospital case. I don't think there is much Amorim can do this season except to study the players that can fit into his system and try to get rid of those who can not play the system. I don't think the hierarchy are expecting him to win any trophies this season. This season is probably to steady the rocky ship Ten Hag left behind.
The bitter Truth is that majority of these players are just not good enough to challenge for league titles or Champions league titles which is what United should be aiming for.

No one is asking him to win trophies or anything this season, but we can’t be playing like this against Bou and Nottingham forest. It’s a tabooo!

Steadying a ship means winning against small teams and probably making top 8 or something, and ensuring we see progress overtime. We cant wait until changing all 15 players.

Getting close, we will score soon.

Meanwhile, it was Zirkzee that allowed his player (he was marking) to head the ball into the net.

Jamiuokolaa:
I ed at the 10th minute yet I haven't seen us work their keeper not even once...

So once them "cage" Amad small laidis, no show?

We don’t create many chances, it’s pretty glaring. We rely on individual brilliance or mistakes from opponents to score. Not sustainable. Let’s hope we figure it out soon.

Goosethetruth:
Lol...😀

Amorim has a lot of chopping and changing to do in January and the summer. So many of these players have to be sold.
They are just not good enough.

Amorim himself has a lot to learn as well.

This man should have started Erasmus and have Zirkzee come on. Zirkzee is just too big with less energy and speed upfront. Damn it!

Dem don score.

We seem to be doing lots of long and overhead balls today. Probably because Zirkzee is upfront, but I think we can play on the ground against Bou.

Ellexy:
Actually Barca losing yesterday was because they failed to convert so many chances that they had. They actually almost played Atlético out the park. Very frustrating for Barca fans.

Actually, that’s how Athletico play, against the big boys. They defend while relying on your inability to covert chances and converting one or two chances they create from counterattack or opponents’ mistakes.

Flick has lost consistently in the last 5-6 games like Pep & City. However, I believe it’s just a rough time, he’ll bounce back.

This is really bad. Pep should just leave, He’s out of ideas.

Wanbissaka:
Rasmus na only gidigbo style of link up play e Sabi. Zirkzee with Im cement boots. We need a top 9 asap by January or we finish in 17 🤣🤣

That boy don tire me. Na gidigbo left and right, he no dey calm down at all.

ChristineC:
we certainly do create. not yet clinical with them.
two clear chances fell to Eriksen at the edge of the box in the first half. didn't even hit the target. balls came to his weaker foot though.

True, but very few chances. Though I agree that we should be more clinical. We’ll get there.

We don’t create quality chances. Always relying on individual brilliance or errors from opponents. We need to find a solution, plus five at the back becomes three when we lose the ball in opponent’s half/box, reason we continue to concede relatively cheap goals.

They held his hand o

Amad sabi this press sha.

Wow, Amad!!!!

One back, hope still dey

This one is too much sha. Haaa God! City must be really bad right now.

Jokerman:


No mind the useless coach... Dey listen to fan and journalist clowns,until he ends up like TenHaram

The fans want a manager that listens to them, no?

Oasis007:




..........yet no Amad no party?! LOL!

Well, everyone contributed. Amad did not do it on his own. But he was exceptional. Question is do we need all 11 players to be exceptional or super stars before we can win every game? No.

Oasis007:




......bruh! I know it ain't Dundee United but we are still faaarrr to the top! Amorim is certainly on the right track but we shouldn't expect much from him and mumu squad at the moment.

Wrong to say it’s a mumu squad. The team is better than its current position.

Leyqute:
Still 13th on the log though

12th, except if Tottenham wins. I am tired of number 13 abeg

patrickmuf:
Pep shouldn't have removed Doku sha.

Let’s forget Doku, he was mostly inside Maz’s pockets. Plus I think Amorim’s Antony sub helped a lot.

Having Antony on the pitch kind of freed up Amad, tbh.

Jamiuokolaa:
This win makes last week's loss kinda painful sha

Agreed. But we move! I feel like we are gradually getting it, but we need to stop relying on one outlet for chances. What are we doing with the ball going forward?
