Match Thread Manchester United v Everton - Waffle, Match Report & MotM Poll

[Dwight K Schrute]

Wrong they should be near the relegation zone because they’re awful who are the decent ones? Branthwaite and Onana are good but not top top players and I’m not convinced Onana ever will be either, decent players tarks and maybe garner beyond that the rest of the squad is atrocious got 3 fit RB’s and not one can get a game a leggy Ashley young coming on Lewis Dobbin who struggled at derby, a LB fit for the championship 2 strikers who are useless who we haven’t even paid for yet and another one who couldn’t score in a brothel with all his millions but ye we shouldn’t be around the relegation places

You keep believing that my friend. A good coach would have this lot away from the relegation zone with ease.

23 shots and about 2 where the keeper had to do anything.

We're clearly playing for xG here lads.

tbh, neither keeper had much to do, without the penalties, they weren't scoring either.

They are shabite doing my head in we missed a chance today.target practice ffs

Not strictly apples Vs apples but go on the BBC and look at the list of past Watford coaches.
There have been some 'decent ones'

Yet no consistent 'decent tune'

It's not like they're just getting near the box and lashing a shot off to stack up the numbers though mate.

When the RS or City clock in 20+ shots a game but "the keeper doesn't have to make a save" it usually means there's a sustained threat that's being well defended.

Those team end up scoring... because they have the quality on the back of it.

As mentioned...42 shots across the home and away game against United. 0 goals.

The flip side is what...not having shots or getting in good positions?

I mean it kinda is though? How many of those 42 shots did you watch thinking “maybe a goal here”

I'm not being flippant here (it's a genuine pondering) but is that a genuine bias because of how dire our front line is? The confidence that they'll score is so low.

I think back to yesterday, and there were at least a handful of chances that on reflection probably could or should have been goals.

If we had a competent and confidence fuelled forward or wide player, I think we would have won yesterday 1-0 or 2-0, however we do not.

You can see that their self-belief is so low when the opportunity to shoot opens up and, for whatever reason, we over play it. We dawdle on the ball and lose it.

Ian Wright made a decent point on MOTD. Twice players shot in the first half when a simple through ball would have given Beto a much better chance. They need to work on composure and decision making on the edge of the box.

Yes, and i think Linekar was right when he mentioned calmness. I suspect that our players get over excited when they think that they have a chance of scoring and that rush of blood to the head causes them to make the wrong choices/snatch at the chance. This could (should) be addressed in coaching (just like not turning your back when someone hits a hard shot at you).

To many players that don't offer anything, sick of seeing Harrison in the starting line up.
