They ripped us to pieces. We absolutely robbed threw points from them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No idea who they left all 3 games with nothing! They are very good and Potter knows how to set up a team according to the opposition they are playing in order to exploit any weaknesses. That Man U game was a joke. They should have had about 5 goals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

useless Posted November 20, 2020 Report Share Posted November 20, 2020 We may well lose to Brighton we're capable of losing to anyone if we're not at our best, but they're one of these teams that has become overrated for some reason, they're not actually that good, finished 15th last season on 41 points, 17th the season before on 36 points, have taken around 40 points from their last 38 league games, and are struggling again this season, three of their last four games have been against Palace, Burnley and West Brom, so it's not as if they've had the most difficult fixtures. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think its a wise observation.....and I think Luiz and McGinn are central to us being at our best, the double pivot they pose ,is crucial to playing well or not......Jack is our talisman and Barkley too aids and abetts him, but they are the engine room in a 4-2-3-1 Trez is also raising his profile in an ever confident team, just needs to ensure, his work rate is maintained......becoming a regular danger at the back post, ghosting in.

I agree that we cannot be complacent but no reason why we shouldn't be confident. I am concerned about energy levels after the international games and just hope Dean will react decisively if any of the players are struggling.

He will be starting the first game. So you think he's starting ahead of Rashford and Sterling when they're back fit? Not to mention Greenwood who will be back in the squad I'm sure.

troon_villan Posted November 20, 2020 Report Share Posted November 20, 2020 Just seeing those two names together; Grealish and Barkley. Frightening on paper. Both have 9/10 games it's goodnight for most clubs in this league. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted November 20, 2020 Report Share Posted November 20, 2020 Mam utd fans are a right special breed "I think we can get him for £40m plus Phil Jones or Romero" You would have thought that after the sancho debacle they would have learned that he's worth whatever we say he's worth And just like sancho that number will be one they can't afford 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
