It was obvious they fancied something today and were vindicated with how much running our team did today. Doesn't that perfectly illustrate how our management can make better, more informed decisions than us? It isn't here for reasoned debate. Just laugh and move on. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCJonah Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 I love the fact that we lost Jack, spent £100 and yet only started one new player to beat man U at old Trafford. We're still arguably not at full strength. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People ignore the fact we were looking poor before Jack got injured too. Those blaming Smith for lack of rotation seem to forget we had no one to rotate with. The squad was very weak and now it’s been strengthened. 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post samjp26 Posted September 25, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted September 25, 2021 When asked what this win will do for team confidence, Hause said that’s all down to the gaffer. He tells them they’re just as good as anybody in the league and they believe in what he says. Think that summarises how good Deano is tbf. 20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest av1 Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 5mins to go, away at Old Trafford and we bring on a young Striker. Performances and results will go up down, that’s sport. Trying to win every game under this manager will never change. That’s why I was proud after Chelsea even though the result went against us. So so proud this evening. Love you gaffer.

Delphinho123 Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 Deano doing the business yet again. I wonder if the Grealish transfer has somehow helped him a little too. He can play different formations and play different systems where everything doesn’t have to go through Jack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villarule123 Posted September 25, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted September 25, 2021 I really, really hope he keeps progressing us and he can be here for the next decade. Having one of our own leading us forward rocks and there's no one else I'd rather see end our trophyless spell. How anyone can be negative towards him is beyond me. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There’s no ego’s now either. Jack was a class act but remember his reaction to being subbed off against Newcastle. No player should have a divine right to play every minute, don’t care who they are. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah there was a very bizarre overreaction to it from some quarters. Brentford are no mugs and we were decimated injury-wise. Maybe it was because it was ridiculously seen as our last "winnable" game because after all, how could we possibly get any points at all from Everton, Chelsea and Man United?

ferguson1 Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 We really do belong in this league now and are competitive against anybody, including the elite. Deano’s confidence is feeding the players and they clearly believe in him. When this squad is fully fit and integrated, we’re going to give a couple of teams a damn good thrashing. I also love the fact that nobody including opposition managers know what team and formation we’re going to pick. Last season was consistently 433 with not much left on the bench to change a game. Now our bench is full of quality and options. It’s great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillanousOne Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 I was massively unsure of the back three and wing backs approach, I didn't understand why we have so many wingers that we aren't using, but so far the decision looks genius as we are playing on the front foot against the big boys and can unleash more attackers later in a game if it's not working. We are playing well as a team and some of our players haven't even got out of second gear yet that is all credit to Dean. Also on a random note, does it wind anyone else up as it does me that when we beat one of the big boys their managers blame everyone but themselves for the loss and refuse to give us single bit of credit. Ole crying like a little girl. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny watching those Manure pods they are melting down, nearly as bad as the Arsenal ones when we turned them over last season, hilarious. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said something similar recently. Dean was stuck as he had to play his star player in his best position really. That meant predominantly going 4-3-3. For example, Smith would never have gone 3-5-2 today had Jack stayed. Now we have no stand out players (relatively) and more squad depth (as a result of the Grealish sale) he can rotate with confidence.
