It wasnt a great performance by any means, but we are keeping the momentum going and thats important. Players are coming back from injuries as well, which makes me exicited for the remaining games.

Darmian LB, Fosu-Mensah RB

[–]soma40Carrick 5ポイント6ポイント  (0子コメント)

Darmian is okay at LB. Would prefer CBJ or Rojo there.

I dont care how we pick up 3 points now. Hope we win all of our remaining matches.

[–]Djjihad 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

Agree. Is too late in to the season to start expecting fireworks or a different approach, just get the points.

I thought we were in for another 0-0 after a lackluster first half for both sides, but the subs made a key difference. Rojo in particular looked a step behind, so I expect he won't get the start on Sunday. It was a joy seeing Rashford, TFM, and Martial hook up for that goal though. Hopefully, we maintain our momentum and continue grinding out necessary results.

A somewhat realistic scenario would be drawing this weekend with Tottenham and hoping City do the same against West Brom. Then we can make up the one point different when we host Villa while City go to Stamford Bridge the following matchday.

People are taking our performance way out of context and exaggerating how good we were. Everton played dire football, hoisting balls over to Lukaku, who had no support, the rest of the time they just parked the bus.

I'm sure if they actually attacked and pressed Carrick, we'd have seen a much different game. We may have won this match, but the war is far from over, Spurs are going to bring the game to us and then we will see how well we can deal with pressure.

Lukaku had a poor game tbh and we didn't acpitalise one of the weakest defences in the league

Interestingly I think we will fair better against spurs, we seem to play better against sides who leave spaces open.

We have a definite tendency to sit back and let the opponent control the game once we're 1 goal up. We did it against Chelsea, then against City and Everton, luckily for us it didn't bite us in the ass the last two times. But it's very worrying, because we've witnessed countless times this season that we are not able to get a last minute goal and push for a result, so if the opponent gets a late equalizer we're pretty much done for.

Do you think it's because of the players' mentality or if LVG specifically asked for that? And if so why?

I think it's pretty interesting how we kept attacking in the Midtjylland game and in return we scored the most goals in one game this season. So why don't we do that in the league?

Despite his game against us, I think Lukaku could be the perfect fit for next seasons team.

Was at the game and the first half was awful. The crowd started off in good voice in the stretford end but the football saps the energy from the stadium. Everton were poor from start to finish and we were slightly less poor than them in the 2nd half. 3 points is always good but when Arsenal and City are both winning 4-0 we need to be winning more convincingly. I'm struggling to see where Rojo fits into the team because he certainly isn't up to playing LB and Blind and Smalling compliment each other's game.

On the note of Blind I think he is a top centre half to play along side smalling who has the physicality needed (but needs to watch his shirt pulling) whilst Blind has excellent distribution, some of the best from a centre half in the PL.

Was Rojo taken off because we needed to neutralize Everton's right wing? or was he injured?

[–]refweyrar 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

Yeah, deulofeu was running him off the pitch

I am torn on LVG. 1-0 wins when you're not playing well win you the league… in seasons where you've battered teams 5-0 and 7-1 when you're on form. We've only won three league games on the bounce once his season.

But having said that, if you'd told me 3rd or 4th and FA Cup final at the start of the season, I'd have taken it. We lost one of only two world class players this summer (ADM) and didn't strengthen as we should have.

[–]ThadderfulRooney 0ポイント1ポイント  (5子コメント)

Bit presumptuous about the final haha

I would take 3rd and win the FA cup but tbh that still isn't enough

[–]mufcirclejerk 0ポイント1ポイント  (1子コメント)

Why wouldn't it be enough? It's progress. Moyes took us to 7th. LVG first season takes us to 4th. His second season takes us to 3rd and FA Cup final?

What would you take? 2nd in the league?

[–]ThadderfulRooney 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

Its definitely progress and tbh I would take it, still ideally 2nd in the league would be better - tbh just a sustained challenge.

Even would take 3rd and no cup as long as we showed a clear progression in terms of our play...

[–]House_Of_LannisterLVG 0ポイント1ポイント  (2子コメント)

Your expectations are ridiculous. Why don't you get down from that high-horse... 3rd and winning FA cup isn't enough... seriously laughing out loud.

[–]ThadderfulRooney 0ポイント1ポイント  (1子コメント)

What high horse?

For the second largest club in the world our fans don't really seem to expect anything nearly in line with the money we earn. The Glazers must be laughing their socks off whilst simultaneously praying we don't realise how sweet the deal they have is.

This season, yeah I would have taken 3rd and winning the FA cup before it started. Having seen Chelsea, City and Arsenal all fuck themselves I don't really think scrapping for 4th (arguably 5th) is good enough in hindsight.

LVG has had two years year and has arguably regressed - certainly not progressed.

To summarise, before the season I would have taken it, now I still don't think its ideal. It certainly should not be what we aim to achieve year on year.

[–]House_Of_LannisterLVG 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

Every team except Leicester and Spurs have regressed so there's that.

There's the countless for and against arguments for the state of our season but ultimately it has to come down to team chemistry. Sometimes you can grab a bunch of players, young, unproven in the countries league and all under new management and style of play and it will work. But the probability is that it is not going to work for a while - meaning, years. The outcome; the result of the hard work in the past 2 years will (hopefully) show in the future.

For the second largest club in the world our fans don't really seem to expect anything nearly in line with the money we earn.

That is because RM, Bayern and FCB all have bought the world class talent. They have also been tactical with their upbringing of youth. It's all taken years (not really the case for RM), and the famous words "it is a process" fit the bill here.

Winning the FA cup and finishing 3rd is a great achievement and whether we are huge in the money terms, as a club, we should be extremely grateful to even have the chance or the right to propose such levels of achievement. Teams lower in the table, mediocre clubs, dare I say the scum would/could only dream of having our problems.
