Why is no one shooting?!? (self.reddevils)

p0ppab0n3rRooney が 投稿

How close do they want to get? So many chances at the edge of the box. Mata, Fellaini, Carrick, etc. At some point the players need to realize that they need to fucking score so they should take chances and shoot the damn ball. Not every shot will be ideal or on target, but he'll, at least try. I just don't understand the mindset. Someone please give me some insight. Is this something that the players have been told specifically not to do by LVG, or is it something else? Honestly hate yelling "shoot" at the fucking television when they have an opening, only to see them lay the ball off to someone else.

Its been the same for 2 years, its clearly evident they have been coached out of it.

We obviously lose possession with each shot...

Because LVG will drop you if you shoot and miss, look at Memphis.

What was Van Gaal thinking, bringing Carrick on that early?

"Work in the box" in action. Should've changed tactics to "Shoot in sight."

Mata shot. Wide.

Lingard headed. Waist height, at Mignolet.

Rojo shot. Wide.

Fellaini headed. Low, at Mignolet.

Blind shot. High and wide.

Martial shot. Multiple times. Other than the penalty, all high or wide.

But still, this must be better than the alternative of not shooting/playing around too much and loosing possession. At least by shooting, you test the keeper. There's always the possibility of a keeper blunder, or simply one of the shots won't be complete shit.

Can you show me anywhere that I stated we shouldn't be shooting? I didn't say, nor do I think we shouldn't be shooting. We should have taken those shots, and we should have taken more. They just needed to not be shit.

In a game where we took 17 shots (https://www.whoscored.com/Matches/1058727/Live/Europe-UEFA-Europa-League-2015-2016-Man-Utd-Liverpool), plus more that were blocked and don't make it into that stat, you asking why is no-one shooting is completely and utterly missing the point. We did shoot, they were shooting, they were just utterly shit, disgraceful efforts at goal. Absolutely nothing to do with "philosophy". It was just shit. Mata's effort in particular, IMO.

Not saying you said we shouldn't be shooting. You're comment made it seem like all the shots we took were useless. I was just saying that even though they didn't go in, and some weren't even close., I'm glad they took the shots they did.

[–]ColourCrisisPaddy McFlair 19ポイント20ポイント  (1子コメント)

Because if they miss, LVG writes it in his filofax and reviews it with everyone the next day - which discourages players to shoot. I said it early in the season, got downvoted by this sub for it. Looks like I was right.

We don't always shoot, but when we do, we miss in embarrassing fashion

[–]lawanhawizy 3ポイント4ポイント  (0子コメント)

When we do take a shot, it's not like we're any good at them. We have to be the most off balanced out of control team when it comes to taking a shot. Arms flailing everywhere, leaning back, sliding for the shot. Shots end up dribbling pathetically wide, hitting the first defender or ending up high and wide.

Hard to shoot when you have two banks of four infront of you because you cannot penetrate a team.

[–]JamieD86 2ポイント3ポイント  (1子コメント)

They are afraid if they start scoring he'll put them on the wing? :P

Seriously though, it's incredibly frustrating and apparently very easy to contain us when we're this shy in front of goal. It's sorta like Arsenal trying to walk it in only much worse.

On night's like tonight, you appreciate the benefit of a Robin van Persie-type player. We just don't have one anymore. I don't really understand what Louis is trying to do at all.

I just keep thinking back to the days where Scholes would just fucking smash one from outside the box. Ronaldo and Rooney too. I just wish someone would just take a fucking risk once in a while. Everyone is just so afraid of fucking up that they end up fucking up.

Philosophy but don't worry, some of Van Cunt fans said we will win trebles in five years. Thanks to Van Cunt and his dinosaur philosophy.

We had plenty of chances. No one wanted to get it on frame. Rojo missed point blank, mata had one on the edge of the 6. We had plenty of chances to score today. No one beat the keeper or put it on frame. Fellaini and lingard had close range headers right at the keeper too.
