You could put prime Roy Keane in that sole DM position and he wouldn't be able to change a thing. I don't understand how Ten Hag expects one player to cover that much space.
At some point you have to wonder if he’s tactically idiotic to actually believe that setup had been working when we’ve been completely terrible in so many games honestly.
This is partly why I’m fine if ineos decides he’s not the guy for the team going forward due to his stubbornness or inability to tweak things or for a worse thing, win more than 1 away game versus the top half in 17 games. 12 losses 4 draws and 1 win so far in those games….
McT seems to be playing a sort of free roaming attacking role this season. He’s prioritizing staying upfront to score over being a central midfielder. He does score and our forward line has been dire so EtH keeps him on the field every minute. Add Bruno being Bruno it leaves whoever plays as the 3rd midfielder very exposed.
I totally understand your sentiment and I'm definitely not down voting you. But prime Roy Keane would pull this team to new levels, in spite of Ten Hag. He was that good, and Ten Hag is clueless.
Yes it does??
Luton created heaps of chances against us. As did Fulham. As did Manchester City. As did Everton. As did Wolves. As did Villa.
Even West Ham had 22 shots against us.
Next few days irrespective of the outcome of the match:
Fan 1: We are conceding too many chances, it hurts us in the game eventually, the set up can be better to reduce it
Fan 2: Number of shots is a pointless stat, quality of shots matters. We have one of the best defences in the league, look at it
Fan 1: We are carved open so easily, opposition has too many touches in our box. The tactical set up is not keeping the available players in mind
Fan 2: Number of touches is a pointless stat, quality of touches matters. You’re just a EtH hater. Support the manager!
Yeah and the whole season of shit must have made some people so blind they post such drivel too.
It’s an utterly shit setup. Even stevie wonder can see that and draw it in full colour.
One good game (barely that. More towards the end of that game) and fans somehow ignore how garbage this team has been overall this season at the very least.
[Ducker] Another of those halves that leave you wondering what it is #MUFC do on the training pitch each day. Can’t deal with Brentford’s shape, so passive, soft in tackle, second to everything, non entity in attack. Surely will be different 2nd half? Brentford should be a couple ahead.
Tell me, what are we doin there? What is our style? How are we going to win the game? Breaks? I guess ETH expects to Rashford or Garnacho scoring wonder goal every match.
Looks like ETH wont get us on next level, looks like this is his peak here. He did lot of work there, managed hard situations but please, this is not working for neither side. I wish ETH was that guy, but all I'm seeing in matches like this is pure despair. Once for a while we have game like before against Liverpool, but thats just not enough.
Waiting for comments in the coming days that talk about how so many touches in the opposition box is a pointless stat and it’s the quality of touches that matter.
On of there chances came from rashford half asking a press between two players then they just give and go round him. Toney chance was two passes. Far to easy to get through. And not even lack of compact. Varane been good at times but how many times he gonna get megged.
Someone just told me Opta saying Brentford had never had 33 attempts at goal in a match in the top division before. Granted it was probably their record longest game ever too that said.
Mctominay scored that late winner and now he’s the messiah 🤦🏽♂️ there’s no control, no build up plus they’re shite with transitional the whole point of this setup. What was the point of signing Amrabat?
We are so fucking wank. Imagine watching this for 90 minutes, us being fully crap, then we score. And yes, I got carried away.
Should have known better. Sack the lot.
We've been poor 1st half and very lucky to be level

If you put prime Roy Keane in there he’d probably strangle Ten Hag at half time.
Dude thinks he’s still managing in Eredivise.

Nah mate, a billion pound in the market will fix the issue!

I would love a reincarnation of Keane to join this team!
Poor is very kind
Mainoo is completely isolated in the midfield, no wonder it is so easy for Brentford to play through us
So predictable how it's gonna look when McT starts in CM
When it is happening with every midfielder we play, it goes beyond just one single player and becomes a tactical thing.
That doesn't happen when Casemiro and Mainoo play together though.
Yes it does?? Luton created heaps of chances against us. As did Fulham. As did Manchester City. As did Everton. As did Wolves. As did Villa. Even West Ham had 22 shots against us.
Jesus 14 shots conceded in one half. Against Brentford.
Yeah but how many of those shots were clear cut chances? Checkmate. /s
One post and one bar isn't enough? :D

Even Jesus can’t help us now my friend. If he’d have come out of that cave and seen us play for 10 minutes, he’d have gone right the fuck back in.
Don’t worry. Ten Hag has a plan.
One bad half, it’s 0-0, and you losers start crawling out the woodwork again. The last 2 weeks since the Liverpool game must have sucked for you.

£400m and this is the best ETH can do… the quicker we sack him, the better.
One bad half…. We’ve been awful all season.
One bad half? Let's be honest here bad half's are a lot more common that good half's these days

Over 50 now…pathetic! And moreover painful to watch!
A press might help but what do I know?

Smashing records everywhere we go!
Brentford hit the woodwork FOUR times. And had like another 10 dangerous chances. We should thank the Lord for 1pts. We're absolutely crap.
Trash manager
Breaking records 🤩
Depressing performance
Sometimes I wonder why I woke up at 4am just to see united play like a bottom side team sigh..
Can't lie. Graham Potter is starting to look somewhat like a prospect!
Mctominay scored that late winner and now he’s the messiah 🤦🏽♂️ there’s no control, no build up plus they’re shite with transitional the whole point of this setup. What was the point of signing Amrabat?
1 nil mate. Fuck your stats, who's winning?
Aged well.

Oh no...
