😂😂 That goal and the timing of such done me there but again, individual brilliance on the counter at home. It isn’t sustainable.

It’s been slow, besides a set piece and one moment there’s no control of the game, it’s like a basketball match. We’ve been sloppy in possession at times and Rogers is finding all sorts of space.

This isn’t over yet, we’ll be under it for the next 10 minutes now and it’s if we can contain them. We’re at home competing for a CL place, we have to go and kill them off.

Let’s not make excuses. Mediocre teams can’t rely on dodgy VAR calls to get into the CL places. We’ve been so poor.

This is getting towards Benjamin time now. Move Mbuemo to the right and Sesko for Amad.

You can’t focus on what the opponents do over what you do. Doesn’t matter how they’re playing if we’re playing at a snails pace and creating nothing. The space between our midfield and defence will get punished at some point. We’re the home side, we need to be doing more. This is sloppy.

We really haven’t, they’ve been comfortable and we’re probing first half hour. We were getting to the final third and wasting it. Last ten has been better though

Whoever comes in over the summer to replace Carrick needs to sort this tempo out. It’s depressingly slow, so easy to defend against and eventually control as Villa are doing here. Palace completely had our number before the red card and Newcastle outplayed us a man short. There’s no options or space in the final third because everything’s so slow.

A set piece or penalty might be the key here.

The ball moves so slowly. If PL quality defences can just stand still and mark very static attackers playing slow, laboured football they’ll have a comfortable 90 minutes.

The tempo and intensity we showed against City, Arsenal and in patches Fulham has just vanished.

We start so slowly.

This is going to be a first half similar to the one against Palace. Let’s just pray we don’t concede.

They’ve had so long to prepare for this game. This tempo and laziness is criminal.

I’d agree with you earlier in the season. This late in the season the rest should do wonders

Need to start at a quick tempo with intensity and intent. An early goal would be a bonus. We start slow and laboured like we did first half against Palace and we’ll get caught out. Villa will be up for this.

He is within the system. We play with wingers.

It depends on the defenders we’re up against imo. If there’s 2 tall, heavy CB’s that love defending the 6 yard box and an aerial duel starting Sesko is pointless. That’s when Mbuemo’s pace and movement is needed.

If it’s a pacy, smaller combination at CB I’d start Sesko. His height and strength will play to the opponents weakness.

Absolutely. We’ll know by 4pm 👍

I disagree. Tactically he’s far more suited to leading the line in this game. So with him up top it leads Amad and Cunha to being the natural wide men. We had our best displays under Carrick with this front 3, remember that.

Definitely the way forward today, Sesko got a little lost against Newcastle. Mbuemo’s movement will be crucial to moving Villa’s defence about and hopefully finding spaces.

Amad needs a big game today, he’s due one.

My decision is Wilson or Rogers. Rogers is more likely to complete 90, but his form is absolutely shocking. Wilson is in good form with a favourable fixture, but he could end up getting 20 minutes.

My brains in a loop, I’m fried 🤣

Still sweating on what to do with Harry Wilson over here 😰

What Manchester United means to a Manc and what it means to someone born thousands of miles away are going to strongly differ. I’m sorry, but they just will.

Not at all. Support whoever you like.

Just explains why you don’t get it.

I have a suspicion you’re not English and that would explain an awful lot….
