Bailey Posted February 27, 2020 Report Share Posted February 27, 2020 I'm a bit worried about this. Under Ancelotti we have showed that we struggle against teams that can move the ball quickly and historically we are awful against the counter attack. Last season Solksjear got burned trying to play the "United way" against a 'lesser team' away from home. His side have shown they can outplay the teams that come to beat them, and that includes the best teams in the league. If they come to Goodison and park the bus to hit us on the counter they will cause us loads of problems. On the other hand if we do the same to them we will cause them all sorts of problems on the counter but I don't see Ancellotti being happy to concede possession.

That has more to do with the crap players we have than the system in my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To an extent as some of our players certainly dont help, but if you play 4 v 5 in midfield against a good technical team it's going to cause plenty of problems. I think we only play 442 because of the form and attributes of the front two. I also think it only really works when Bernard plays and comes in off his wing. He must start against Utd in my opinion.

Who is going to cover more than a few feet of ground and actually put a legitimate tackle in? I don't want Siggy to start but if he does it has to be off the left in that creative role.

In a diamond with Gomes sitting back and passing forward, I think he could work. But I’m admittedly hoping he finds his feet again 1 hour ago, London Blue said: Last game was poor to be honest.

He’ll definitely stay central and get forward... as long as there’s a United player for him to hide behind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He got into plenty of good positions supporting the front two at Arsenal, but he was lost everywhere else. He’s either a supporter of the 2 strikers in a diamond or shouldn’t be on the pitch.

He's played that supporting role countless times and proven over and over that he's crap. The odd decent showing doesn't change that, so why do you think anything is going to be different now? I wish we had the depth to sit his arse with the U23s and never have to see him playing again. I really do. He's a disgrace. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really do. He's a disgrace. I can only agree with this.... not all lazy arsed players need to have a Morgan, mirallas, lukaku, sulky faced/Not arsed look. Gylfi looks impeccable, a nice personality, lovely technique..... but he is no different essentially. Short changing fans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve no idea why he’s dropped off so badly, maybe his legs have gone. He gets until the end of the season for me even if I don’t expect an improvement. worst signings? Not even close.

It's unfair to tag Gylfi with the Nyarko shout because he has given us some great moments. However.... with £45m to spend on a player at the time.... when we had Barkley just left - and with better management could have retained him. We essentially lost a £30m player for £20m loss and overpaid on his replacement by £20m...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
