This formation was getting donned by Red Bull's press the same way it is by Arsenal, until they inexplicably fell to pieces. It's so hard to get out from the back with no width in front of the full backs.

United are so weirdly passive in these games. It was the same when Chelsea turned up for the 0-0 last week.
Arsenal hopefully get relegated, this shit is more painful than watching Burnley.
Is Aubameyang still on 0 goals since he signed his contract?
Think so. Scored first game of the season and that’s it
It's playing not to lose. It's shite.Originally Posted by niko_cee

What the fuck is that from Pogba?
They need to move on from Pogba asap. His all round play in this game has been abysmal. Why the fuck is the Dutch boy not getting chances?
Solskjaer, like previous managers, will lose his job because he continues to play Pogba who just isn't good enough.
The immediate shift in urgency from United once they went a goal down suggests that they were very happy with a 0-0 scoreline, which has to be a seriously questionable mentality. It reminds me of those dogshit Tunisia teams you get at Afcons.
Leaving Pogba on to unleash his full array of ambling and backwards passes for this last 20 minutes a very wise move from Solskjaer.
He would have gone this summer were it not for the Chinese (why they bought Nuno Nernandes in January), and Donny van de Beek is his replacement just opportunistically brought in a year early for similar reasons. In the meantime, he probably hasn't got the stones to leave him out.
We didn't even pretend to try and beat Chelsea last week and it's been barely any better today. A lot of middling defensive shite with no urgency or intent.
I can't believe that fucking waste of time is going to finish the match.
He always seems to play like this against THE BIG FOUR, no matter how shit they are.
This is the kind of performance that warrants a permanent dropping of Pogba. What exactly has he offered (besides giving up a penalty rashly)?
This route one football to Maguire is good.
Why did we move away from the formation/team we used against PSG? We looked really good.
Mohammed Elneny > Neymar + Mbappe
He's got a lot to do Solskjaer. That's absolutely fucking dreadful 3 times in a row at home.
I can't remember when I last saw United play that badly. Manager must be toast.
Arsenal were decent if not terribly penetrative. Gabriel MoM for me, Clive.
He shouldn’t be doing it.
Potter seems to have had a brain injury. 3rd choice keeper in and no striker. Apparently Maupay not even being named on bench for tactical reasons
Short of a miracle against Carlo's chancers next week you'd have to think that'd be Solskjaer gone in the international window, sadly.
Ryan has apparently been underperforming according to xG (I can't remember anything bad, but feel I might be forgetting a howler?) but dropping him is bold. No Maupay unless something's going on behind the scenes is even bolder.
4-4-2 with Trossard and Gross 'up front'?
Would be pleasantly surprised if we got anything from this.
Connolly dropped from the squad completely?
Unlikely clean sheet for Brighton now that twat has left Ryan on the bench?
Nope, even fantasy jinxing can't save Brighton tonight I fear. A turgid 2-0.
That is all a bit strange from Potter. Its like he's thrown the towel in and happy to write it off as a loss before a ball has been kicked.
Danny Ings needs a scan apparently. RIP Southampton?
Yeah probably true.
He's done his knee again? Fuck sake Danny
Gutting if its a third ACL.
It doesn't look good
We were dreadful today. That formation is absolutely not workable with Shaw and AWB as the full backs.
When are we going to have the Lamptey or Cafu debate?
WhEn ArE wE gOiNg To HaVe ThE lAmPtEy Or CaFu DeBaTe?
They’re ruining it for Pogba.
This thread gets so sassy when Utd lose.
Why's the doughball starting on me?
Only because of RL.This thread gets so sassy when Utd lose.
Man, I hate it when RL is forced to gobble up my balls like this
Also, the ref viewing two stills of the incident for a minute to arrive at the wrong decision is only more lol for the fact he was within 2m of the incident and in both stills
Watching MOTD and Alan Shearer is berating Sheff Utd for not whipping percentage balls into the box
