Susah lo, now kapitan must play. He is really really poor yesterday. The only first 11 players I feel up to standard yesterday are Onana, awb, varane, casimiro and probably rashford

We start this season very close to zero again...Mason Mount is not the solution to anything.
While I agree we need strikers, I am not sure how did we go about signing the important one so late and injured. Looking at this, are we talking about not scoring a single goal for the entirety of his injury and rehab (Most likely a few weeks or a month or so)?

The midfield is looking unbalanced man...

Forget about winning/challenging for PL/CL
Esp when team is built around Fernandes
Wake up and smell the coffee

Intentionally waited almost 24 hours before posting as with every loss, pain will be apparent.
So let's let it out. And then take another look at it.

- I thought the performance was ok. It was better than Wolves. First half was a tactical chessboard with both teams the "inverted fullback into box midfield" when in possession. Shaw for United and Porro for Spurs.
- It was a game that after 40 minutes, whoever scored first would win.
- Why didn't we win? Because we did not score. We did not take our chances while Spurs did. We had the better xG. If we had scored any one of those chances in the first half, I feel we would have taken the game 2 or 3-0.
- The penalty shout. Garnacho's first touch in front of goal failing him. Bruno's free chance from 6 yards. Antony's shot against the post. We had more than enough chances.
- The officiating I have some choice words for. VAR is not about last week this team benefitted so this week they don't kind of a thing. Two bad mistakes is two bad mistakes and they don't equalize out. The penalty not being given is another mystery for VAR, someone ought to answer for it like the Wolves game. And I did not agree the Mac Allistar challenge for Liverpool was a red, but if officials say it was a red, Porro on Fernandes was worse being studs on shin. Wasn't even a yellow.
- Spurs scoring earlier in the 2nd half was the decider. Game was gone after that.
- I thought Rashford did pretty well linking things up at the number 9 spot, he's not a natural but made things happen.
- Garnacho being a teen still needs to work on decision making. And Antony was ineffective as an attacking outlet, everyone and their mother knows he only wants to cut in. Give him the outside, and he has zero threat. Antony cannot put in a good cross with his right foot.
- Would a number 9 who can hold the ball help? Yes. I think Hojlund would have been a good starter for this game. Unfortunately, our forwards are all in the medical room.
- Not convinced that our midfield 3 will win any midfield battles against top sides but will wait until they play 5 games before judging.

imagine pep stay at city sampai pencen..means manutd need to wait another 10 years to be EPL champion..

Watching Chelsea game.
I really think if Ten Hag still stubborn to put Rashford as CF, and maintain the current midfield selection, he will be sacked.
Seriously.

I really expect he will make drastic change in next match.
If not just like what lots of fans, last season is not bcuz Ten Hag is good, it is bcuz Casemiro saved the team.
But Casemiro form is dropped now, the magic is gone.

Why even layman fans can see the issue but he can't, I don't understand.

well chelsea lost

Rashford still can score 40 goals but not as CF. i guess martial already fit to play or even he's not fit enough, he's far more better than rashford as CF.
i hope ETH give some love for McTom pair with casimiro because of the speed and willing to cover areas.

At least they control the game, the players know what to do.
Lots of chance created.
Lack of final production, yes.
That is why they lost the game.

Us? We can't even pass properly.
The players are so lost with the plan set by the manager.

Support for the Reinstatement of Mason Greenwood


Dear Manchester United,

I hope this email finds you well. I am writing to express my deep concern regarding the current situation surrounding Mason Greenwood and his potential reinstatement within the team.

As a devoted supporter of Manchester United for many years, I have always admired the club’s commitment to upholding promoting positive、forgiveness and responsible values both on and off the field. I was happy to learn about the recent charges against Mason Greenwood, which have since been dropped. Because the charges being withdrawn, I believe it is crucial for the club to thoroughly assess the situation and act in line with its principles.

I want to emphasize that my support for Manchester United has always been rooted in the belief that the club stands for integrity and responsible decision-making. If the club decides not to reinstate Mason Greenwood with a comprehensive review of the incident and its implications, I will regrettably be forced to reconsider my support. This would entail refraining from purchasing Manchester United merchandise, sponsor products, and attending matches at Old Trafford.

I believe in the power of second chances and the ability for individuals to learn from their experiences.

Mason Greenwood's skills and contributions to the team have been invaluable, and I firmly believe that his reinstatement would not only strengthen the squad but also present an opportunity for him to continue his promising career at Manchester United. It is essential for us as fans to support our players during both their triumphs and their challenges.

I trust that the club's decision-making process takes into account all relevant factors, including the personal growth demonstrated by Mason Greenwood and his commitment to the team. By reinstating him, Manchester United would not only display its faith in his abilities but also exemplify the values of forgiveness, positive, and be responsible.

I sincerely hope that Manchester United takes this matter seriously and conducts a thorough evaluation to ensure that the values we hold dear as fans are upheld. I believe in the club’s ability to make decisions that align with the best interests of the team and its supporters.

Thank you for taking the time to consider my concerns. I genuinely hope that Manchester United will address this issue in a manner that preserves the club’s integrity and continues to foster a positive environment for all stakeholders involved.

Yours faithfully,

<your name>

first half is reli playing well barring the obvious things.... scores..... if harry kane is here, already hat trick... second half, all give up fighting... midfield give up, kapitan give up, rashy give up, antony do nothing with his dribbling... all totally lost control after the first goal...

stupid maguire, i hope you cant revitalize your career anymore here... just go freeze in the reserves/hell for all i care... i wan my amrabat here beside casemiro!
mount.... go and cool down at holland like sancho... other than hardworking, cant see him do any shit

I want to talk about officiating today morning hence providing some visual aids below. Specifically the VAR official. There has to be a clear understanding on what is an offense and it shouldn't change game to game. Consistency.

The challenge of Porro on Fernandes. If we are saying any late challenges of studs onto shins is forbidden, then Porro should have been off. You can't give Liverpool a red card for a softer challenge and then not even give a card to Porro. I'm not saying it has to be a red. But I am saying there has to be consistency for these cases.

If a challenge is made of studs on shin, what is the rule? No foul, foul? Yellow card or a straight red?


The penalty. There are debatable penalties and then there was penalties like this one. How on Earth does someone in the VAR room not even send the ref to the monitors, instead declaring it not a penalty. The hands were in no way by the side of the body and a natural position.

His hand was so high, he's calling a taxi. In Malaysia, he's basically baca ikrar for the Rukunegara. It's ridiculous.

**Subject:** Feedback and Concerns Regarding Mason Greenwood

**To:** [Manchester United's official email address]

**Dear Manchester United Management and Board,**

I hope this email finds you well. My name is [Your Name], and I am a long-time supporter and admirer of Manchester United, the club's rich history, and the legacy it has built over the years. I'm writing to share my views and concerns regarding the potential reinstatement of Mason Greenwood.

Firstly, I understand that every decision made by the club is with the best intentions for both the players and the institution. However, as a dedicated fan, I believe that it's crucial for the club to maintain its esteemed reputation by carefully considering the actions and behaviors of its players, both on and off the pitch.

While Mason Greenwood is undoubtedly a talented player with a promising future, I believe that his reinstatement, especially without a clear demonstration of accountability for past actions, might send the wrong message to the club's young fans. It is imperative for Manchester United, as a global brand and role model, to uphold the highest standards of behavior and ethics.

I trust that the club will give due consideration to the feelings and concerns of its fan base. I sincerely hope that any decision made will be in the best interest of the club's future, its values, and its dedicated supporters worldwide.

Thank you for taking the time to read my email. I wish Manchester United continued success, and I am eagerly looking forward to supporting the club in the upcoming matches.

Warm regards,
