LVG has always been known for his weird subs and position changes but what the fuck was today?

Take off Rashford and replace him with Ashley Young who has just come back from a very long term injury and has only played up top ONCE in the U21s. Meanwhile Anthony Martial a striker is stood on the left side which is ironically the position that Young made his name in!!!!

Not only this but he continued with Mata in the right position for 70 MINUTES. Despite him not doing a single thing positive in that position!! And who has also played that position this season.. Ashley Young...

I'm so confused, If a game summed up our season it would be this one!! 81 Days till Mourinho guys.. 81 days...

It must just be an ongoing joke at this point.

He'll probably write up a 4chan greentext at the end of the season laughing at how he managed to get away with so much crazy shit without getting sacked

be me

be LVG

Surely I'll get found out soon, how am I still even allowed in this chair?

My notes are crossword puzzles ffs

Okay, need a win for Top 4

Putting too many people to sleep, need a sub

Young at striker, keep Tony on the wing. Wouldn't want to frighten my man Hugo

TFM is too horny, needs a replacement

We keep letting our players get away with murder.

Swapping the striker with a no.10/winger is NOT why we conceded 3 goals.

The gameplan was keeping Spurs pretty fucking quiet. The bumbling defending on that 1st goal was an individual mistake, not a tactical one.

The mentally crumbling after going 1-0 down was not a tactical mistake.

Fuck these players. I can deal with them being technically shit but I can't stand them being this mentally weak.

So mind the Ajax flair but United is my team away from home. I've been one of the biggest supporters of van Gaal throughout the whole of this season. One of the last fans still supporting him at this point. But today was just fucking insane and I am at a point where I don't give a flying fuck if he loses the job. You want to bring Ashley Young on at half? Good call! But don't fucking play him as a fucking striker. He has 0 ability to hold up the ball, is far slower and worse in the air than Rashford who he replaced. Take a chance to win the game and take off Jesse "always plays it safe" Lingard. The guy isn't bad, but he sure as fuck isn't good either. He isn't going to win you a game. Take a chance when you go one down and put Memphis on. Yeah, he's been inconsistent, but he does have the ability to make something happen on his own. Michael fucking Carrick. Look, I get he is important to the club, brings experience and what not, but he is so far over the hill. He doesn't even pass the ball well anymore and he is slower than my fucking grandmother who has been dead for over 5 years. LvG finally makes some positive changes after the game is long gone and United are 3 goals down. United needed to win. Make those fucking changes when it is tied at nil. Take a risk. If we gave up 3 playing an unbalanced, attacking game, then so be it. But this was fucking pathetic. I know it's late on but today was the straw that broke this camel's back.

Spot on, couldn't have said it better myself. People act as if we don't need to buy a number 10 because we have players like Lingard, Herrera and Mata (and some even include Peirera). Couldn't be more wrong. We need a De Bruyne, an Erikson, someone to fucking transfer the ball from midfield to attack without passing it sideways, backwards, or straight up losing the ball. Average team, average players (excluding Martial and De Gea), average performances. Oh, and a shit manager

[–]JamesakaNoah 7ポイント8ポイント  (0子コメント)

I was on your side as well for a long time. I admire him so much for his achievements with the Dutch, he was able to make players better than they were. That makes a big difference between good and awesome managers. Sadly, at this point he is making players play worse. It hurts me to see Memphis play and believe he is actually one of the people hurt most by LvG.

[–]ibaRRaVzLaJosé Mourinho 3ポイント4ポイント  (0子コメント)

Exactly my thoughts. What the fuck was Young doing as a striker while Martial was playing on the left? Mata was absolute shit as well. Van Gaal is fucking clueless.

[–]TheLannister_ 11ポイント12ポイント  (8子コメント)

The saddest thing is Ed may stick with Van Gaal next season. Van Gaal is the biggest culprit, but Ed Woodward is part of the guilty company too.

In the 'real world', Ed Woodward would have been sacked by now. The stock plunges, the performance of the team goes down the toilet. The fact that he did not sack this clown yet, is an indication of a weak -VERY WEAK- C.E.O.

[–]tamasuperstarDe Gea 2ポイント3ポイント  (4子コメント)

Yeah but lets not pretend that Ed Woodward isn't incredible at the other side of his job, the business side. Because that's the reason he's still here, whether you agree with that or not (I don't).

[–]bigumbrella 2ポイント3ポイント  (2子コメント)

Then we need a director of football. Because Ed Woodward the business genius soon won't be able to keep making money off this terrible team that Ed Woodward the football man is incapable of fixing.

[–]LDN2016 26ポイント27ポイント  (18子コメント)

Mata was pathetic on attack. Young's sub was crazy but may have even worked if someone was threading through balls.

Meanwhile right now Kagawa is running the show in the derby, asbolutely dominating vs Schalke and just scored this goal: https://streamable.com/9yz7

Kagawa is now on 16 goals + assists from 21 starts (4 subs) this season.

[–]Saf94 2ポイント3ポイント  (2子コメント)

For all LVG's faults I don't really think this loss was his fault. I highly doubt if Rashford had stayed on we'd have scored when we were creating nothing (bar that Martial run) or we wouldn't have crumbled after the goal. The truth is there's fundamental problems with this squad, no creativity and no world class players/matchwinners and no leaders at the back

[–]TheLannister_ 3ポイント4ポイント  (0子コメント)

If Leicester doesn't teach you anything than nothing will ever will. They certainly do not have a world class player. We have a few of creative players, it's how you deploy and use them.

The fundamental problem is the manager, his so called philosophies and his inability to respond to his opponent's tactic.

He should and could have brought in Herrera, patch the midfield because we were outrun by the end of the first half as they started to exploit our right area. Fosu Mensah was directed to bombard just like he did at Everton with Mata staying back to cover <-- if this tactic doesn not sound wrong, I don't know what is.

All 3 goals came from the right side too. Not a coincidence at all.

[–]MuppetxLVG 2ポイント3ポイント  (0子コメント)

2 of their goals came from crosses on the their left side (not counting the free-kick). Fosu-Mensah was blocking Rose and Eriksen's crosses all day.

[–]mykalbMata 2ポイント3ポイント  (2子コメント)

Darmian was useless. He watched errikson walk past. He fouled for the second and then lost Rose for the third.

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

Mate Rojo was more at fault than Darmian.

Rojo doesn't cover after Smalling and Blind do their comical collision and so Alli is completely free in the centre for Eriksen's early cross. What was Darmin supposed to do? Go tight on Eriksen? That just leaves a massive gap in the centre that Eriksen can run into.

Second goal - he gives away a free-kick but come on man, it was poor marking by Rojo on Alderweireld.

Third goal - comes from his side but Rojo loses Lamela completely.

LVG: "Hey Young. You're a midfielder who has been a make shift defender during my entire tenure. You've been out for a few months with groin surgery. Let me sub you on for one of our only bright sparks this season after a competitive first half. Oh and before you get on. You're going to play up front on your own against two of the best central defenders in the league."

[–]jjkennethRooney 4ポイント5ポイント  (1子コメント)

I'm generally ok with his experiment nature, even though I'm very much pro-Mourinho, but fucking hell, what in the ever loving fuck was that? Not to mention Lingard and Mata playing in swapped roles made worse by the fact Mata was clearly instructed to play back and cover for/with TFM, something he isn't known for and that Lingard is actually quite capable of. The front four today was fucking retarded.

[–]youreviltwinbrotherNobody fucks with The Peaky Woodwards 64ポイント65ポイント  (6子コメント)

TFM was excellent, even if his task did mean Mata had no threat in attack.

Young, a left wing specialist, upfront when we have an excellent striker on the left sums up LVG's substitutions.

The fact we fell apart so easily is the worst though, no fight from anyone, and LVG persists sitting down on the bench believing that the players know the plan for every situation. That is not modern management and it's not what this club is about. This club fights all the way to the end. For Van Gaal, it is the end.

[–]Tinkyxwinky 7ポイント8ポイント  (2子コメント)

Just 90 ? looking up match lineups, watching news of possible LVG sacking/resigning every few hours on the subreddit. I think the worst thing this regime has done is to make me numb to the results. I'm not shocked by the result and the manner in which it came about and I bet nobody is, there have been numerous games this season already where we could've gone out to much worse teams with similar results if not for De Gea.

[–]rinilkvMata 43ポイント44ポイント  (1子コメント)

Masterstroke Substitution from LVG to take Rashford off for young when we need a winger and then play him as a Striker!

[–]PenPaperShotgun 20ポイント21ポイント  (5子コメント)

Martial who is our best striker is playing on the left wing.

Mata our natural no.10 once again is playing on the right wing.

Lingard (Cristiano Lingard) supposedly a right wing is playing number 10.

And Ashley Young who can play RW/LW is now our striker.

Take nothing away from Spurs - they've been by far the better side both today and this season. And I'd argue that they are stronger at every position.

That said, it's embarrassing for us to be so reliant on an 18 year-old academy product with 1 previous PL start to his name. He goes off and 8 minutes later we've conceded 3 goals, all from the flank he was on. I love that this club promotes youth and gives fair chances to youth players, but to be so consistently reliant on players like Rashford, Martial, Lingard, and today, Fosu-Mensah, just shows how much wrong LVG has got in his tenure. We should not capitulate when a virtually untested 18 year-old goes off injured.

[–]cookie1254Rafael 15ポイント16ポイント  (3子コメント)

The same old shite yet again. Utterly, utterly pathetic. We had a chance of getting within one point of City but you'd think we were in mid table with nothing to play for after that complete joke of a performance. We created one chance the entire game and that was completely down to Martial's individual brilliance. Defensively we were abysmal.

I'm so fucking sick of LVG's fetish of playing players out of position. Ashley Young up front when you have Martial in the team is a laughable decision. As is playing Mata out wide when you have Lingard in the team. It's basically trying to fit square pegs into round holes when you have round pegs right next to you. I doubt it would have made a difference in the result today but there's just no logic to it.

Fosu-mensah was the one positive of the game. He showed more in that game than Darmian has all season as far as I'm concerned. The positivity that all the players coming from the youth system have makes me wonder why the whole team can't play like that.

It's a fucking embarrasment that the best case scenario for this season now is 4th with no trophies and even that's looking very unlikely now. Pochettino will be telling his players 'Lads it's United' next season if we something major doesn't change in this football club.

[–]whydoyouonlylie 2ポイント3ポイント  (2子コメント)

The positivity that all the players coming from the youth system have makes me wonder why the whole team can't play like that.

My theory on this is that they haven't been corrupted by Van Gaal's philosophy when they break into the team so they play a completely different style of football than what he has ingrained into the senior players. When did Martial/Rashford play their best football for United? In their first 3 or 4 games when they were only being introduced to training with the senior team. After Van Gaal took them under his wing their performances dropped.

Don't get me wrong, they're still good players but they are nowhere near the level they were when they broke into the first team. And I believe that's all down to Van Gaal's training and tactics destroying talented players.

[–]Pedantic_PatFan Favourite David De Gea 26ポイント27ポイント  (3子コメント)

Just watch him blame the traffic.

Bringing on Young instead of Memphis was just laughable. Ashley Young up front? Fuck off. We're giving Memphis all the opportunities to fuck up his talent.

At this stage, the Jose announcement can't come soon enough. If we're waiting for top 4 to be impossible like with Moyes to save some money, think about every player we're going to try to sign this summer and what they're thinking. A proper plan needs to be laid out.

The good:

  1. Fosu Mensah again impressive
  2. Lingard, Martial, and Rashford showed some good interplay in the first half
  3. I didn't travel to the game
  4. The myth of Blind being a worthy first choice centre back should finally be dispelled
  5. We didn't lose 5-0, which we easily could have
  6. We probably won't finish fourth now and I'm ~80% confident that LVG will be sacked if we don't
  7. Our fans turned up on time
  8. A plane did not crash into the stadium and kill any of the players, fans, or staff of either club
  9. We are 90 minutes closer to winning a trophy at some point over the next quarter of a century

The bad:

  1. Blind will still be a first choice centre back for the rest of this season
  2. Fosu Mensah injured
  3. Rashford injured
  4. Rojo plays first team football for Manchester United and nobody seems to question it
  5. We brought on Ashley Young to play as centre forward in a must-win game
  6. Another game totally passed Carrick by
  7. LVG will be our manager until the end of the season because it's still mathematically possible that we can get fourth
  8. LVG might not be sacked if we finish fifth and win the FA Cup
  9. Depay looked bobbins when he came on (again)

Cant wait for this fraud to leave. Absolute fuck all team. Talks so much about balance but plays an attacking midfielder as almost a wingback, a featherweight winger as striker, a youngster who is a much better striker is left on the wing and an extremely poor Lingard in a free role.

Absolute shocking display. We were in a good position at half time and then for the life of me I cannot figure out the substitutions LVG makes. Ashley Young substitution was fucking awful. Not bringing on Herrera was also a mistake for sure, Mata was useless. Then after the goal furry he brings on Memphis for an absolutely useless 15 minutes. The poor lad had to watch Ashely Young be subbed on before him after Young hasn't played in a long time. In my opinion this was our worst display of the season. Other than a couple great runs by our youngsters we had nothing going forward and could not keep up any sort of sustained pressure. I know he won't be sacked after this game, by fuck me if this doesn't further solidify his departure this summer.

Rojo was woeful today

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

I don't even know why the fuck we play Rojo. He's a shit left back. He's a center back and that's it. Literally every game that Borthwick-Jackson has played this year at left back he's played better than Rojo does. He's just as solid defending and provides much more threat in attack.

It should be BJ and FM as our full backs instead of Rojo and Darmian.

What the fuck kind of substitution was that? A winger who has been injured for MONTHS being subbed in as our lone striker. Why? Why? Why? Why? It makes zero fucking sense in the first place and it makes zero fucking sense the fact that Martial was already playing and could be easily pushed into ST role. What the fuck dude...

TFM was the bright spot but he went off injured.

I've been advocating for LVG out since December so this has not really changed my stance. I've become numb to this mediocrity.

I really want to like LvG, I really do. He has genuinely done some positive things for the club and some bright ideas - the problem is he's made twice as many atrocious decisions as well. Blind has been a great step-in defender (though yes today he made some bad mistakes, but remember how good he was last game), Martial has been fantastic, though the young-uns were forced in they've been managed very well, a lot of the dead wood has gone (though i'd have kept 1 or 2 until we had proven players in their position...).

However, the team selection has been absolutely atrocious at times. Today has been ridiculous. Mata and Lingard are in the wrong position. The Rashford/Martial combo worked quite well when we didn't have a decent winger, so we had to use Martial - but with Young and Valencia back there is no excuse. TFM at RB over Darmian did appear to work well this game, but it was a big gamble with so much at stake. Rojo is in a poor run of form and should have been dropped. Then the stupid out-of-place substitutions ... what is going on?

I'm still not convinced Mourinho is the best manager for the club, as i'm worried he'll burn us out like he did Chelski .. but LvG HAS to go and Mou is the best manager available.

LVG has made some strange calls in his time, but playing a winger in centre forward, a centre forward on the wing, a winger in number 10, a number 10 on the wing... None of it makes sense!

Have to give it to TFM today... He was a class act. Really fell apart down that side, 2 goals from open play when he came off.

I really cannot wait to see the back of LVG

Aside from losing, the most frustrating thing to me is that it seems like LVG is still messing around with positions.

WTF with the changes at the half? Was Fosu-Mensah really that integral prior to the injury? After Darmian came on, it was as if Spurs said, "hey, we can exploit that back line now..."

I would like to thank Manchester United for improving my patience immensely, learn how to deal with disappointment and anger in an efficient manner, and practise my creative thinking by trying to understand wtf LVG is trying to do with his subs and tactics.

I don't even know what is worse, feeling bad for some of our fans that had hope about today, or feeling sorry for some that still believe in LVG like /u/theAwakened

At the end of the day, this is a very predictable result. I made a thread about how we tend to have bad results every 2-3 games. If we don't get knocked out by West Ham, which is highly plausible, then our next third game is against Leicester. Expect us to look impressive against Villa and have a dour win against CP.

We should accept that we have failed as a club. LVG has spent money woefully and the team is weaker than last season. Ironically the story of the game is how Spurs dodged a huge bullet in not signing LVG as their manager. Pochettino has come in with limited funds and built a team that plays like a team and has the right balance of experience and youth. I said to someone on this sub that Dele Alli has had a more impressive season than Martial and will probably win the young PFA award over Martial. As usual was downvoted.

We can't feign ignorance over this loss. We faced MK Dons in LVG's first season and Dele Alli destroyed us. Yet we did nothing. We faced Leicester in LVG's first season and Vardy and Mahrez destroyed us. Yet LVG did nothing. Not saying that we shouldn't have gone for Martial, but there is talent that we just ignore and waste millions on buying players to be moulded into diff positions.

LVG has actually tarnished the image of the club. Only mercenaries will consider coming here. Every player has regressed under LVG with the exception of Blind, Smalling and De Gea. It's a bit of a shame but most fans on here wanted this end result so this is what it means when you downvote folks that disagree with you, you end up being confused and saddened that champions league is out of our hands.

While TFM was on the pitch we were practically playing with a back 5, with mata at rb and TFM at rcb. In terms of attacking we were absolutely no threat, aside Martial's brilliance. LVG's plan coming into this match was horrible. A) Mata at RM B) Young as ST C) Lingard as 10 D) Not taking anything away from TFM's performance, TFM at RB (he was brilliant but he's could be so much more effective as cdm or cb even). Main point, players need to play in their favored positions!

Apart from the first few games of the season Darmian has been bang average and at times fucking dreadful, he's way too passive and gets caught out of position so many times it's unbelievable, he's also useless going forward.

Hopefully it's something to do with Van Gaal and Mourinho can get him performing at a decent level because at the moment TFM and Valencia should start ahead of him.
