Agreed.
Utd have players who can't pass a ball, nor receive a pass. Not sure how many times I saw a player in possession with no easy pass on for them. And, all it would have taken is a team mate to take 2 steps left or right to be in loads of space for a pass. Matic seemed to just hide behind opponents, making it impossible to get a pass. Utd players are just hiding, or making stupid runs, hoping for the Hollywood pass.
Only positive is bizarrely Jones had a good game. Unfortunate his header found a Wolves player outside the box, but always get frustrated when the opposition have players free just outside the box, with no Utd players near them

Tactically I don't think you can get any worse than what Rangnick has served up at Utd so far. He's managed to make Ole look like prime Pep. It makes no sense on any level in terms of formation, selections and subs. He's a busted flush, hence why he was at a third rate Russian club. Incredible Utd have managed to find someone even more clueless than Ole.
Credit to Phil Jones, ridiculed for years but put on the best individual defensive performance Utd have had all season.
Bruno getting too much hate, the difference he made when he came on was night and day. Quick passes, early crosses and unlucky not to score two goals.

The week after man utd re-signed Ronaldo I was at a BBQ and the host (a man utd fan) said to me that for the premier League this year he expected it to go close with city and United for the title, Chelsea to finish 3rd and Liverpool and arsenal to be "scrapping" for 4th.

Rangnick can absolutely do one upstairs quickly if at all,totally out of his depth.
Sancho is frozen in the headlights he’s just scared to go forward and express himself.
Just miles away from playing as a team and Greenwood shows that,just mindless at times.
Pleased for Jones as 2 years out is just mental torture.

I said at the time, the romantic in me was delighted to see him back, but I questioned the logic of his signing. I still question it.
For all his qualities and the goals he has scored, especially in Europe, Ronaldo is merely papering over the cracks and putting any progress on hold. And far from bringing on the younger players around him, his presence seems to be holding them back.
I can make no bigger criticism than saying United no longer excite me. Haven’t done for years. This season I struggle to think of a single game where I have reached the final whistle having enjoyed watching.
An average side, packed with average players, playing dull football.

To be fair, I always look forward to playing Leeds. Otherwise we are just shocking.

We've got to sell to buy apparently, I honestly think we're about 2 players short of really having a go at the top 6.
If we don't back the manager now we never will. If only Moutinho was 5 years younger.

Once more I don’t blame, Wrecking Ralph or Ole or one or two others. There must be someone behind the scenes who is stealing a living pretending they know what they are doing hiring these below par managers.
Thing is given the impossible level of expectation the United job is a poisoned chalice and I can't see any of the top managers around wanting to touch it with a barge pole. That leaves knee jerk appointments or those managers with lesser reputations or CV's and usually a very limited time frame to try and get it right.

Conte was sat there free as a bird just waiting to be picked up - Spurs went bold and got him when a number would looking around and by the time they finally pulled the trigger on the bus driver the options were very thin
Also I hear Shaw in his interview alluded to the Ronaldo just not being the right fit
You hold and pass the ball really nicely but you lack an edge up top. If you can get some level of ruthless upfront then you absolutely can push on. As you say, you are close ?

Playing 442 which is what Utd did today in 2022 is hilarious. Especially when both strikers have no pace and a combined age of 70. Add in a midfield pair of Matic and McTominay who are bottom half quality. Throw in making most of your attacks via AWB who is the worst attacking full back in the league by a million miles. No touch, awful receiving position, head down, can't cross....

I see absolutely nothing wrong with the way Manure are playing - but then I'm a Palace fan ???
