Match Thread Manchester United v Leicester - EFL Cup

[Blue Maniac]

I’m going to be slightly generous to Okoli there and say Justin was under his feet when he made the back pass, but **** me what a pair of ****s

 

[Micky]

This game never mattered. It was a hindrance.

Cracking recruitment with BDCR and Edouard.

Top bombing.

And Okoli

And El Khannouss

And Golding

This game never mattered. It was a hindrance.

Getting ****ing battered with two of your starting back four making massive errors is not particularly helpful for confidence.

 

[Miles Away]

And Okoli

And El Khannouss

And Golding

At least they are young.

I agree. Losing doesn't bother me in the slightest.

The problem is that this game is absolutely symptomatic of our whole season playing Cooperball, to date. It's exactly the same defensive frailties week in, week out.

 

[City Fan]

Another wasted game down the shitter

What were you expecting?

 

[TommyK]

And Okoli

And El Khannouss

And Golding

I think there's a player in El Khannouss

Whether he was a player we should have signed in the summer....well...not sure about that.

I'm still baffled by signing Skipp.

 

[Miles Away]

What were you expecting?

For our senior players not to play like complete twats.

 

[homer]

Soumare has been OK

Justin and Okoli have been unbelievably bad

DCR, Coady and McAteer should never play again all season

 

[Miles Away]

I think Okoli and Justin may have played their way out of the starting 11.

 

[City Fan]

Let’s not forget that we signed Dog Bob Reid on a 3 year contract. Shocking.

Jesus wept.

Between him and Coady are two players that are playing in flip flops.

Vesty, too, if we don’t sort that out.

They haven’t because we don’t have any better alternatives, especially with Kristiansen’s injury.

 

[Jeff]

Too ****ing late to put anyone on now. Keep them for the weekend

No point keeping Alves and Edouard for the weekend, no chance they'll start that game.

Hopefully our very own Bob Paisley has a system that doesn’t rely on shit left backs, then.

Oh god yeah we gave Vesty 3 years as well didn’t we.

Jon Rudkin is a gift that keeps on giving.

Alves wouldn't get a game if the rest of the squad all caught malaria

 

[Miles Away]

Sooner play our Bobby than give Will Alves a run out.

I'll end up like a stuck record saying but I don’t think I'll ever understand the logic. I get that with points deductions likely we couldn't attract players but none of these signings are anywhere good enough and would have probably been shite in the championship. Just a waste really. Some shite youth players would have done the job.
