Ratings & Reactions: LC3: Man Utd v Villa

[Made In Aston]

Generally very sloppy tonight, with to many loose passes and poor defending. 2 goals were completely avoidable as well.

I agree about Olsen being absolutely atrocious and McGinn and Chambers being marginally better.

Olsen needs to be replaced. Almost as bad as Nyland and Bunn!

I liked Bunn

I detest United, always have… losing to them frustrates me enough. Seeing some of those individual displays from us almost sent me over the edge. I don’t think we’re far off, I have every faith in Unai. Tonight was a good opportunity for him to see what trash we have amongst our ranks.

Emery’s been here 10 days now and it’s possible for the players to learn what he wants will take a few more days.

Would also be really nice if we could stop getting these rocket polishers in the third round of every **** cup in existence

The way our heads dropped when that 3rd goal went in is everything that is wrong with the majority of these players.

Strange game and one I think we could have got something out of, we must learn to control games and stop giving the ball away. I lost count how many times Augustinsson and McGinn gave the ball straight back to a united player. 

Olsen should never play for us again...

No-one mentioned the shithousery by Bailey to give Fernandez and kick in the leg in a revenge attack from the weekend , then celebrate it afterwards !

Not sure how some people seem annoyed at Emery.

Absolutely nothing more he probably could have

Maybe not played such an high line when we went ahead, especially the second time. Some of the substitutions were questionable.

Yes, we’re never the last minute equalisers or the turn a game on its head team. Ever. It’s annoying.

This...  I don't know how much more he could have done right...

• Rotated the squad out because we have 3 matches in 8 days
• Set us up brilliantly in the first half to disrupt Man United and patiently move forward
• Made good subs to keep the team fresh who will be playing Sunday

Blaming him for terrible individual performances isn't his fault.  It's his 2nd game, for fook's sake.  hahaha

4 days ago, it was the United players’ heads dropping when the third went in.

Especially with our slow defenders. He'll learn from that, I'm sure.

[Nigel]

Some really poor performances tonight especially from olsen and mcginn, but the fact we were well in the game till 85 minutes must be considered a positive. 

We just need to win a game from behind as you could see the heads drop as soon as we conceded that 3rd.

I'm glad emery got to see more of the squad tonight.

[Johnnyp]

I’ve certainly felt worse after Villa defeats. We didn’t play too bad. Hard to account for a keeper who can’t make a 5 yard pass and a worldie of a cross from Garnacho. Ah well, on to the next one.

That doesn't have any relevance to our issues whatsoever. I'm not saying we're the only team that have these issues, but our issues are the only one's that concern me.

How can anyone pick out Mings after witnessing that abomination of a performance from Chambers tonight?

Remind me how many goals we had conceded before he came on ?

Then their 2nd goal, the mings slip letting the player straight through.

The 3rd goal which was a mings og 

Or maybe the 4th goal where he lost his man who scored ?

 

Take your pick.

 

I don't slate players for the sake of it however if they play shit then they get called shit. I also don't blindly defend players when they have played shit, I find that very odd.

Never mind.........at least we can concentrate on just winning the League and FA cup double this year instead of the treble..........

Watch the second goal again. Chambers is clearly at fault. He’s so slow to get back that he relies on Ashley Young to cover for him. Got roasted for the first goal too. 

[Pinebro]

All I can say is.

Why oh why didn't Martinez play?

Spot on. The way our heads dropped in times of adversity is so, so frustrating. 

Hopefully, Emery can sort that out quickly, otherwise it's going to rear it's ugly head again and again.
