PBP: UCL - Manchester United FC vs Sevilla FC - March 13, 2018 [R]

Lukaku explains his comments about players hiding... (well, sort of)

Putting aside how I may feel about those guys most of days, there's practically nothing I can disagree or even argue with...

 

Nothing else needs to be added, we were crap for the majority of the tie, we played timid and looked fragile in midfield.

Honeslty, it's like Mourinho told the team to go out and get a quick goal but when it didnt happen we played not to lose and playing on the edge like that is a recipe to concede.

 

LVG lost the fanbase when he continuously expressed satisfaction with performances that delivered minimal shots on goal.

So is quite haunting for us to have just 4 shots on target across 180+ minutes of football in four halves and for Mou to say we were playing well.

According to BT Sevilla had 21 shots which is the most of any team at Old Trafford for 7 years.

 

His comments yesterday are as if he not only doesn't feel part of Man Utd...but worse...looks down on us. Even though it's HIM who can't get the team to work.

I've listened to his comments today (I didn't want to yesterday)...and I'm sickened by his attitude and blatant disrespect he has shown towards our club. All he seems to do is downplay the club and try to big up himself (the I've knocked Utd out comments are a perfect example). He's like a film\rock star who is rapidly on the decline and deludes himself that he is relevant due to past glories and uses every excuse under the sun to excuse that decline. He's becoming a sad, pathetic character.

 

Bailly apologizes for the loss vs Sevilla.

Classy move on his part, even if he's one of the (few) players who has nothing to actually apologized for yesterday's pitiful display.
But this only confirms he's one of the very few guys we've got with balls and character. A couple more wouldn't hurt tbh...

 

“Mourinho is starting to look like a washed-up rock star, one of those guys that goes around holiday hotels for pensioners playing old hits on an organ with the base and the percussion playing on a tape recorder.”

I can't even be mad at this shit..........fml

 

Those comments by Mou are does of an egotist who refuses to accept that he is to blame.

That midfield mad no sense. It should have been McT and Mata with Pogba and Faillaini to close it out. It just showed and disjointed attack. The Front three had no water carrier and the back 4 didn't have nearly enough protection. I don't know how a guy that gets paid so much can't see it.

His tactics, line-up and man management were all poor. What makes it worse is he got it right just a few days earlier!

 

Good lord.............. please tell me you mean Matic.

 

Meant Matic, McT and Mata. Mata only because Pogba was not fit for a full 90. If Pogba was fit, he starts.

 

We only had one. Matic. Nobody know what Faillaini was doing except maybe Jose.
