Match Thread Man Utd V Everton. Sun 3 Aug - 22:00 BST

[RomanReigns]

Utd fans on reddit saying they were second best for most of that half. Funny how perspectives work.

We hit the post and had a goal disallowed and they got a dodgy pen

If Ndiaye could pass, we may be up by 2. He can't be world class though or he wouldn't still be here. Just very very good

ManU is a bunch of weak dramatic floppers. Name recognition gives them the call. It’s pathetic to watch. Writhing in pain.

 

[Hinchcliffe's Corner]

We just need Barry to come good
We just need a proper right winger
We just need Charly to play central and be on it
We just need another centre mid

Yeh not a lot then.

Gana, Garner and Charly as our midfield three looks good to me, Ndaiye one wing and A.Nother.Urgently on the other wing. Beto worrying me this half but he can come good, and Barry we will wait and see. Depth is worrying but I do think we fix that winger position our balance will right itself.

It'll change in the second half when Man Utd make their changes and we can only make about three

I make it 4.

Aznou, Armstrong, McNeil and Barry.

However, 3 of them are entirely unproven for us.

Last 15 minutes we dominated that.

Pretty decent half from us. We actually look like we could score, before we did, But as ever seem to make a mess somewhere on the pitch every time we play these. We look like we could actually win

 

[Runub]

The soft underbelly worries me, in midfield mostly.

Almost sound Churchillian there

Not even sure Beto was offsides either. Was very close

The punditry is woeful.

 

[Woolverhampton_Blue]

Beto really needs to work on his hold up play, and midfield really need to work on playing him in behind the defence.

I don’t think he’s every going to be good at that side of things. Only way he’ll thrive here is if we sign midfielders capable of playing the balls he needs.

Far better performance Everton. COYB's

 

[Paul Rideout]

If Ndiaye could pass, we may be up by 2. He can't be world class though or he wouldn't still be here. Just very very good

In his defence the pitch is an effing horror show

 

[witchdoc187]

I didn't watch west ham but we were better team v Bournemouth first half and better team here. I don't think we need to worry about relegation but of course we need a bigger squad as everyone knows

I’m enjoying all the United fluffing because this happened last summer and it was all the sweeter when they crumbled.
