" Last season United would have sat deep against a side like Liverpool. They would have packed the midfield and looked to strike on the break. But this season they cannot do that because of Cristiano Ronaldo. He has to play, because he is Cristiano Ronaldo. He offers almost nothing in the defensive phase because he is Cristiano Ronaldo. He is not mobile enough to play as Solskjær often previously had his forwards play against high-level opposition in a sort of 4-4-2 diamond with two wide strikers because he is 36. His goals, as they did against Atalanta last Wednesday, may bring United results, but he is like some gorgeous wallpaper from an Edgar Allan Poe short story, hiding the cracks while simultaneously causing the wall to crumble."
Hey Ole if you’re on the forums ignore my previous post. I think the 4-2-4 is magical and you just gotta let the ballers ball. Keep it up. You’re doing great!
I think if they are only considering sacking him now they really aren’t going get any closer.
I expected he would get the fixtures up to the break.
This would be Man Utd all over mind, as for Zidane, I can’t see that to be honest. Might as well offer the job to Ronaldo he won’t be happy with anyone else.
Shocking on both fronts, but nothing that the odd bead wouldn’t sort. Me and Shaw could be long lost brothers. That’s a huge marketing opportunity right there. That brother thing worked for them before. Clothing brands aren’t really my thing though, but I reckon I could manage a nice little line in Asda.
