This pre season has been a massive waste of time. We’re 5 days away from our season opener and we don’t look ready. Who the fuck thought flying to Germany for this after a grueling US tour was a good idea?

Midfield has barely strung a pass together.

Love that. The second commentator thought he was off the air and just said "It's not been great has it..." as they were cutting to the adverts.

We are one more CB away from playing exciting attacking football

We are one more CB away from playing exciting attacking football The hope is that with an experienced world class central defender in there he's more likely to let them play more expansive football.
Not convinced myself though.

MUTV feels a lot less professional than Sky for these live matches. Reminds you how good Sky are at what they do (for the most part).

In fairness to Jose, it would make sense that the reason he has the handbrake on is because he doesn't trust the defence (and even then, we all know the stats about how many times DDG has saved us). If we had the best GK and best CB in the league... we probably won't be playing vintage Fergie stuff, but he may well let the attackers do more.

That's the kind of thing I'd hope for rather than expect with Jose.

I’d have accepted that cautious approach against the top teams but we have been served this shit on a far more regular basis. We are missing tons of players tonight but this is exactly the type of game I could enjoy even if we lost as long as we showed any sign of creative football.

Why have more RW when you can have more CB

Bailly crocked? Go on Ed, get both Maguire and Toby.
