I feel like screaming "make him go left make him go left!" But I dont think nobody would listen.

Damn it. That has to be a goal.

We could easily be winning this game. Making this game almost
More frustrating than if we were just crap.

Considering the injuries and players on int'l duty, I'm stunned we're playing this well. We may lose by 2 goals but the performance has been pretty good actually. Even the goals…I mean we could have done better but they were also really well taken.

Agreed. But when you have a forward with a dead to rights leveler and he misses it. It's always going to be painful.

These subs are just laughable.

Absolutely. Always frustrating to outplay a team and lose. But I take solace in the performance.

What was laughable was the service from corners and free kicks.

What? You don't like corners and long throw ins that somehow go straight to a GK 6-8 yards out from their goal with absolutely no offensive challenge?

Bruno out for at least a month with a hamstring. I'll be shocked if he's ready to go in 30 days.

Harry Maguire did his hammy at the beginning of November and he's just now coming back.

Amad and Mbuemo out for AFCON.

I think we are going to be moaning about how many points we dropped at home since October.

Any word on De Ligt? Sure would be nice to have him.

Semenyo going to City (probably).

To be honest, if the plan was to play him in one of the 10 roles, I'm not that big on it. It seems like we have too many 10s to me already (certainly compared to other positions).

I only came around to him because despite our best efforts we are still there to chase champions league. We aren't going to find the midfielders we need in a January window. We need some quality depth.

Plus it's man Dhabi once again adding frosting to their title contending squad.

I thought we might score more if we could find an alternative to Dorgu (or Dalot) on the left side. But that isn't Cunha (or Zirkzee or Mount or whomever else you want to name with a right foot; not pacey enough to get back quickly). Maybe it's not Semenyo either, I'm not familiar enough with him. Improving defense mostly requires improving at the double pivot, which I agree isn't looking real likely near term.

Shocking turn of events where the team with an unlimited budget can buy who they want when they want.

Also helps when you are constantly winning. Attracts other players that want to win.

I'm beyond fine with missing out on Semenyo. Even if they planned on playing him at wingback, it's a weird move. And it makes even less sense if they didn't plan on playing him there.

As long as they address the massive numbers of other deficiencies (besides actually scoring), sure.

Go on Ruben. Give Jack Fletcher a start. Let's get crazy.

Happy Boxing Day Red Devils.

Literally anything could happen in today's match. A win at home to end the year would be very nice.

We are playing decently. Already had some chances if the front line would turn on the ball faster. My biggest issue with Sesko so far is he looks like he's not up to the speed of the league yet. Hoping it comes.

Dorgu!!!! I always believed in you!!! (Don't read the thread lol)

Anyone notice before the goal that they were talking about how we were outnumbered in the midfield even though we've been playing a more or less conventional 4-2-3-1 the whole game? Kind of funny. I guess if you prepare material, you are going to use it.

Dorgu on the right is a bit of a revelation.

Dorgu and Dalot play really well together on the same side, somewhat surprisingly.

Should have put that in the net by Sesko…

I was thinking they hadn't really threatened much despite having the ball… cancel that thought…

Mount sub purely tactical or did he get injured?
