Crazy, given how poor Ugarte was last game. Mainoo needs some playing time

I don't get it at all.
F my life
When you can't clear the ball that's going to happen.
And we can't clear the ball.
And we can't clear the ball.
We have been asking for this
Dalot with a stupid and lazy giveaway to give them the equalizer.
Missed most of the game. That was horrible control from Dalot.
Bruno just absolutely quit on the man marking as well.
And honestly, just sell Mainoo if you aren't going to use him. It's criminal that a player of his talent that came up through the youth system can't see the pitch.
Nice clothesline on Dorgu
Honestly it's been the same brainless stuff we have seen for 3 seasons.
Whatever style of play we had the first 20 minutes had been completely nonexistent since then.
Cunha having Hojlunditis early and not scoring when he should have didn't help. He hasn't touched the ball since then either.

Ugarte isn't even good at the things he's supposed to be good at.

He's really good at giving up unnecessary fouls
We're watching his regression to the mean in real time
Another braindead foul
Since we're not going to be finishing in top 4-5 no matter what, I'm very performance over results this season for at least the first 3-5 games of the season. I would say that the performance against Arsenal was a 6th place team's performance.
The 20 minutes I've seen of this game is a 13th place team's performance. At best. More disappointed at the away point this week than the home loss last week.

And since the goal was changed to a Muniz OG, we've still not officially scored this season.
Ties where you get outplayed for 70 minutes won't cut it.
That was so painful. Hopefully we don't get Stephen Warnock on commentary again for a while. He always makes me want to stab my brain even under good conditions.
Just showed replay of the equalizer and Bruno just stops and watches ESR (who he should be tracking) making his run into the box
Next 4 are Burnley, City, Chelsea and Brentford.
A 1-4-1 start would be ugly. That would start the discussion to make a change.

I'm done with Bruno. I used to love him. If there is an offer, take it.
I honestly don't blame him. He's not a central midfielder and at 30 years old, he's not going to suddenly start tracking all of those runs as a central mid. It's not a reasonable expectation.
Whether they realized it or not, that's the deal they made when they put 130m into Cunha and Mbeumo.

Remember two years ago the Hojlund, Garnacho, and Mainoo celebration where they were all sitting on the advertising boards after a goal? Became the image of the future of United?
Two have now been forced out of the club and one is about to be. For a club that prides itself on youth players coming through to the first team, that's pretty daming.

Add Rashford to that list.
Whether the club wants to admit it or not, there is something rotten here.

At least Rashford had a good spell with the club before he left...ala Beckham for example. But yeah, it seems that Amorim couldn't care less about that history and philosophy. Which is fine if you're winning and playing well but that's certainly not happening with any consistency either.
I'm trying not going to get worked up over one game, but it's worth remarking that if you think United are screwed now, they are extra screwed if Amorim doesn't turn it around this season. They've painted themselves firmly in the "Amorim or bust" corner. Which means they have to either commit to him to a massive degree...more than what might otherwise be prudent, or really disappear into the abyss if they get rid of him. They've gotten rid of a number of young players to serve his system. They've spent hundreds of millions on players to form a roster that better fits his system. If he goes, they will have a ton of players that they can't fit into the next manager's system.
Arsenal gets Victor G, we get some dude from Wolves see the difference?

Okay….
You can laugh just like you laughed about my takes on Onana. Which you well know, I was right. Guess what. People a lot more knowledgeable than me are saying the same thing. Bruno no longer fits in this squad.
And there it is...reports that Mainoo would consider a move before the end of the transfer window. Can't say I blame him.
Yea I saw that as well. Very disappointed with how he's been handled.

What happened with Mainoo? I thought he was pretty good last season?

Nice moving of the goalpost. From your done with him to him not fitting in the squad.
I really don't remember your Onana takes but I questioned from the beginning taking a keeper solely because he plays the ball well out of the back. Seems like we forgot the most important part of keeping.
