Should easily have 2 more goals. Zirkzee has to be more decisive.


I feel like he's putting himself in good positions and eventually he'll start executing. He has to.

His passing and vision from his hold play has been good today

Came to give Onana props after shitting on him. Game might look entirely different if he doesn’t save that pen.

Looks like they gave Antony a pity PK to get on the score sheet.

I'm excited to see if this form carries over to the weekend. We need Rashford and Garnacho scoring.

I like Zirkzee as a player, and he is a very good forward, but he is not a Striker.

He wants to drop back too often to get on the ball instead of being on the end of final passes.

Played some beautiful football in the first half. Disappointed to drop points once again.

1st half was probably our best half of EPL football all season. We seemed to forget having any link-up play involving the wingers in the 2nd, but it wasn't a terrible half.

Agreed, over all good game played and a bad result.

This is exactly who they said he'd be. He's even a self-proclaimed 9.5.

I realize all that. My comment was more around the tactics. By dropping into the same space that Bruno or KM are also occupying it invites an overload in the midfield.

By not stretching vertically thru the middle we rely entirely on our wing play immediately after transition to provide progression.

Definitely the best first half we’ve played in over a year. Bruno had a terrible second half.

Nothing like drawing FC Twente at Home. Nothing changes.

They just have no class inside the box. It all goes to shite and you have to pray for a nice deflection.
