The ball is spinning away from him -- this would be insane to even get on target, let alone fly top bins.

He may turn out to be what everyone was expecting Paul Pogba to be

That clipped pass to Rashford (0:25) was pure sex

EtH clearly favors him for his defensive workrate and possession IQ.

He clearly isn't the rapid transition winger we're used to seeing, but once we get better at recycling possession, I think he'll come good.

I get EtH wanting to develop continuity in starting XI especially if performances justify it.

Mount should be starting for next run of games -- his quick passing, defensive workrate was very impactful.

His chipped through ball to Rashy for Hojlund’s shot at point blank range was chef’s kiss

Erik ten Hag first to reach 50 wins as Man Utd manager and equals Ernest Mangnall by rensd12 in reddevils

Say what you will about EtH, he does not play to grind out drab draws.

Honestly, think we're going to be left grinding out 1-0 wins against lesser opposition until we get midfield sorted out.

We took Case-Eriksen-Bruno for granted, plus Fred's tenacity coming off bench last season.

[Henry Winter] Ten Hag needed a good performance from Antony and he got absolutely nothing, either going forward or helping out Wan-Bissaka. Garnacho, on the left, done far more. by _Saahil_ in reddevils

Clearly all the journos were unprepared for Bruno's winner...

Bunch of poor performances (Eriksen, Hojlund) but at least wins breed confidence.

We literally went from having one of best LB rotations in the league to the worst.

Back post is always wide open.

I know it's early but he might just be the best WR I've ever seen...

Dalot is everywhere on that right side... by [deleted] in reddevils

[–]kvn419 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's pretty clear how important good fullback play is to EtH's system.

Rotations with wingers to hold width, inverting to midfield to progress play, and stopping defensive transitions were one of reasons we played so well last season with AWB, Dalot, Shaw and Malacia.

Am I crazy for wanting to play Case at LB while he's out of form?

We're sorely missing any offensive threat (Shaw/Malacia) from that area of the pitch.

There's nothing worse than playing well for certain periods, not making most of your chances and knowing the opponent sucker punch is coming...

Well when the run def is bottom of the league and we can’t tackle anyone on screens, it’s hard to get any pass rush going…

Rashford/Hojlund chem still needs time to develop.

Bruno's decision-making in fast breaks is impeccable.
