I am hoping the 6-0 beatings are coming soon starting against Spurs! I think you can apply it to more Villa managers than just Sherwood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villalad21 Posted January 13, 2019 Share Posted January 13, 2019 (edited) Ally, Son, Eriksen and Kane will have a field day against this dodgy United defence I'm guessing 4-2 Edited January 13, 2019 by villalad21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genie Posted January 13, 2019 Share Posted January 13, 2019 I didn’t watch the first half but really enjoyed the second. 2 attacking sides, quality all over the pitch. Thank god they moved Jose on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillaChris Posted January 13, 2019 Share Posted January 13, 2019 First hour they played really well I thought. Huge threat on the break and Pogba was excellent. Last half hour was a siege of course but then again Mourinho also had De Gea in goal for his half season. Man. United 7 points off Spurs now. 4 weeks ago it was 13 so they are closing the gap not just to Chelsea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulC Posted January 13, 2019 Share Posted January 13, 2019 Of course he deserves credit but sooner or later his luck will change. De gea made some fantastic saves but Spurs gave him the chance to make those saves. United could still make the top 4. Cant see them finishing above Spurs though.

Zatman Posted January 13, 2019 Share Posted January 13, 2019 Well Mourinho knocked confidence from De Gea among others. Solskjaer deserves a lot of credit for whats happened and no fluke players are playing for him 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genie Posted January 13, 2019 Share Posted January 13, 2019 7 wins in a row in the premier league is no easy feat. He’s added Spurs away to the list. Well done OGS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
penguin Posted January 13, 2019 Share Posted January 13, 2019 De Gea is the best shot stopper I’ve ever seen. United should just pay him what he wants and tie him down, once in a generation player. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villalad21 Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 Calling it an excellent defensive performance is laughable by the pundits. Aren't defenders supposed to stop the opposition from creating chances? Spurs created 7-8 clear cut chances in that 2nd half, the only good defensive performance of Man U were De Gea, you gotta say the defence had a shitty game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa89 Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 United did well but with comically bad back four of Lindelof, Jones, Young and Shaw they were always going to give up chances. They need 5 new defenders in the summer and need to throw the chequebook at De Gea to keep him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No matter how much people will squeel "luck, OGS had no part in that" etc. it still remains 7 wins in a row. He's now also beaten one of the hottest teams in the league away. What more does he have to do to at least get some credit from people who can't see past him taking on a club in Cardiff which was doomed to fail anyway?

Poch changed his system in the second half which resulted in Spurs completely dominating the entire half and Man U coaching staff failed to react. Any other keeper and Spurs would of won that pretty comfortable. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
