Beautiful. Will look forward to listening to the eloquent mocking, with a predictable smattering of relevant expletives, from @sturdyalex.bsky.social 😊

Years and years of bad recruitment has caught up with #mufc. I wanted EtH to stay in the summer but in hindsight, it was a bad move. This is his squad and it's not good. Amorim is right, it will get worse before getting better. Lucky there might be 3 worse teams in the league eh!

...United badly missed Ugarte and Fernandes. Add Mainoo and they would've competed in midfield last night but there are big issues elsewhere. Conceding two goals IN THE SIX YARD BOX! Zero awareness from Onana and a lack of intensity from Maguire and Martinez.

...Sitting in the South Stand I was watching and comparing Isak and Højlund in the first half.
One wanted the ball, looked for it and didn't stop moving. Came short, went long, had a killer first touch and was ruthless. The other one was Hojlund.

...Dalot, Onana are prime example. Even Amad is culpable. Fall his talent, his decision making is poor. Same with Garnacho.

Zirkzee again showed he is not for this level. Højlund not much better either. £100m+ for two centre forwards who don't even threaten to score.

Is it the system? Yes and no. It's a system that doesn't fit the players at Amorim's disposal. Why? Lots of reasons but mainly United's players are simply not good enough to adapt. United have players whose game intelligence is poor & football IQ that is sub-par.

Just this match, count how many times he has lost the ball. Back to goal, running on to it or ball to feet. He's not good enough.

Their reaction is now all important. Let's see how it plays out.

Something you would never say to my face...

I'm picking up my son from university later. This is on my playlist. 😊

Still got my gold one!
