We need to stop dropping points for next 10games at least. Liverpool on a 3-1 D and L and we're on a 6-2 D-L.

That not being enough is obvious, the opponents weren't matched or outsmarted in the run. That's the major reason. We'll see sha.

Liverpool will have to suffer a major breakdown similar to Man City for us to sur them. The goals they conceded against Tottenham is a good sign that their defense is cracking because that has been their major strength this season. Like our defense is our major problem too.

The attacking lineup Slot used today was explosive; something other contenders in the league lack.

Gakpo, Diaz, Salah and Szoboszlai were a combination of speed, creativity, power, technique, movement and finishing.

Their attack be like 100 and defense kon be like 30, especially if TAA continues to be in that backline and VVD without his Konate. If anything happens to anyone else in that backline, things will crumble.

I love how nothing concerns them with possession until they've gotten the lead. After lead, they start some possession football and then switch to full counter when other team prefers to press and possess.

Saka out for 8 weeks max, the werey from Chelsea is also out with knee injury
We will be entering TM aggressively or we recall nelson
Epl officially blown in my opinion

8 weeks!!!!! Ahhhhhhhhhh. My entire day is messed up now. I hate muscle related injuries because they are the worst when it comes to full recovery and regaining form. We have to do something now. Sterling will finish me with HBP if he is the option. Martinelli impressed yesterday but there is no assurance with him. Lord why!

the goals we conceded yday was generally the players being too relaxed that they have won the game. it wasn't necessarily defence .. we reduced intensity after the 5th goal and sort of playing carelessly without bother underestimating spurs.
you can see after the 3rd goal from spurs, we sort of woke up again ...but you're right though. if the likes of Vvd goes out as he's the only solid pne on that back for now . the rest are 50/50 ..
we gonna suffer conceding much goals but we would as well score much of it too ..

we actually do possession. but it's in the First half. the second half is more about intensity and counters..

our first looks something deployed to understudy the opposition team tactics ..

I've noticed that severally..

You are spot on. Your players were too relaxed. Immediately Spurs scored the third, you increase the tempo and knocked them out with the sixth goal. I just knew no way Spurs was winning that match yesterday especially with that backline and most importantly the record. I think Liverpool have lost just 2 out of the last 17 matches against Spurs.

That injury have been coming
That boy have been overused with no replacement, this was how rashford case started and everyone turned their back on him
I hope it won't be the case of saka, we need to enter market and get someone closer

Yeah. That's how we do 1st half, but its failed vs Fulham and Everton. And against Inter in UCL. It won't be much a problem if finishing in those games were above average.


One aspect i missed are those Ozil chip over defense in a 1-2 . We don't do that again.

I hope we don't drop any valuable points with the smallies again.

look at rashford I read he’s not really interested in football again
Don’t know if it’s true or false either way he was managed well
Majority of these young lads are been over used and the games kept on coming

I know you were. I was just stating the difference and similarities. You guys are quicker in transition and more decisive in going forward till you see the net.

No worry. You go still drop points. Pray nothing do your VVD.

The breaking of disciplinary rules since the last 3 managers is proof. I believe it. My own is why die there? Is it by force to die at Man U? Guy doesn't know if he can come alive again elsewhere. Plus the media overhypes man u youths than anyone I've know.

The way they hype Daniel James, Lingard, Martial and co, you'll think they go dey regular for Balon D'or top 20 by now. Even Palmer no still colet hype reach these man u boys.


Since that pk miss at euros, guy has never remained the same baller again. Plays like pressing and tackling is abominable to him.

🚨🐀 Daily Mail: “Man United have been hit by a MICE infestation at Old Trafford”, reports Mike Keegan.

“Droppings were discovered on a recent visit by hygiene inspectors and the club slapped with a two-star rating, way short of the maximum five”.

lThe club are working with pest control”.

🚨👀 January gs after Bukayo Saka and Raheem Sterling’s injuries?

Mikel Arteta: “My intention right now is to get the best of what we have”.

cc: mostob, daveP... all I care for at the end of season is at least one major trophy.

Truthfully, I can’t say I am surprised by the length of Saka’s layoff because I have talked about it for 3 seasons. A long layoff was inevitable because of the accumulations of burnouts. Saka has a different drive than Rashford and I think that will help. We have had several opportunities to get good deputies for Saka but we have spent them on defenders and nonsense players like Sterling.

Ready for 8months without Saka?

Na so you talk say Odegaard would be out for 6 months. Be careful

Arteta's interviews can be interesting but frustrating at times. Man is too ambiguous. You go sign players or you no go sign? simple question.

🔴⚪️ Arteta on replacing Saka out for weeks: “I’m putting some ideas together, we will be doing new things as we did when Ødegaard was out”.

“Gabi has played there, Nwaneri and Trossard… also Havertz can play there. We will talk internally and see what’s the best solution”.

Credit: Fabrizio

If Nwaneri can play Saka's wing, I wouldn't mind at all. I just hope he puts in enough work on the defensive end.

We can try him out in a small match like Ipswich ND if things don't work out we can have Martinelli play there

daveP:

I do not mind Carabao as icing after getting either of UCL or EPL tho the latter is more feasible and he can get both if opportunity present itself.

Seems we are on the same page. He should deliver, how he does is none of my business.

Arteta would rather drift Odegaard go that side and return Advertz back to middle than to throw Nwaneri there.

In addy to another haram playing style... all I need is 3 points every match day till February irrespective of the opposition.

🗣️Les Ferdinand on Bukayo Saka getting injured in the Arsenal vs Palace game: “If there was a perfect time to get injured, it would be now. If he was going to be out for any spell, it would be over this Christmas period.

“You look at the games that they’ve got coming up, no Champions League, gives him a bit of time to rest, we talk about players playing loads of games, I think he hasn’t had a period where he’s been out for any length of time.

“I think if he’s out for a bit of time now, it’ll put them in good stead when it kicks in around January, February time.”

There seems to be sense in what this man is saying.

If Vlahlovic is leaving Juve, where is he going to?

Arteta is that you?

Make we siddon dey look bro... This Rashford rumour is gearing up small small

I am nit expecting any big g this window. And we have 2 more loan spaces due to Neto and Sterling transfers.
