Simply put... No.Is Burnley’s squad better than United’s squad?
Is Burnley’s squad better than United’s squad?
Mostly yes, their squad is better than our starting XI today. Our players who are better are probably limited to DeGea, AWB, Williams, and Martial. Some of our players are in the same level as Burnley players, and some are worse.Is Burnley’s squad better than United’s squad?
How long before people realise he's not good enough. He's streaky and that's all I can say for him really.How long before we just drop Martial?

Me too. Plenty of talent, zero consistency. And for the most part he disappears.Something we’re in agreement with. I’ve long said it.
Trust kids to tell it how it is! But I think right now it would take a miracle. We were so toothless last night it was untrue.Its come's to sumet when your 10 year old says we need jesus in our team,him from city I said?no gods son because we need a mirical to get us into the top four
It's the worst performance I've seen first hand looks like some of them don't like a cold misty night in ManchesterTrust kids to tell it how it is! But I think right now it would take a miracle. We were so toothless last night it was untrue.
And a CB and a RW. Probably a LW too. Oh and another midfielder.we desperately need a Matic replacement, a Fernandes type player and a striker.
that's what I would be looking at this window.
Not a truer word said, well said fellow red !Burnley players on pure ability wouldn't last 10 seconds at a club where they are exposed to playing 1 vs 1 like you are at Utd Burnley setup in a way that makes them hard to break down it's 4-4-2 the two lads up top play off the long ball the rest of the team basically sit deep and stay tight together. They are very well drilled at it because they've been doing it for years and they bring in players who thrive in those conditions they know that over a season this tactic will get them enough points to stay up but it won't get them enough points to challenge for Europe basically they have a clear plan and they stick to it rigidly and everyone owners, manager, players, fans all buy in to it.
Last night Ole set the team up well in my opinion maybe could have been braver and started Greenwood but we don't know if he's struggling physically in some way. His starting XI created 3 really good chances that at this level you need to be taking certainly challenging the keeper. We go behind to more sloppy defending but also a set piece that is hard to defend because Burnley are really good at set pieces if you lose that first header the Wood is a real handful on the second ball. The second goal is just an absolute worldy that caught out the keeper who obviously isn't expecting that.
These results will continue to happen because the players are not good enough some will improve because they are young and still learning some won't because they just haven't got what it takes. This summer Utd have got to make big change I'm not buying into this slow and steady crap this summer needs to be 5 or 6 players in this needs sorting we've given the youngsters a go this season we know which ones can step up and which ones can't so it hasn't been a total waste but it's time to plug the gaps the academy can't fill.
If the board aren't prepared to make that sort of move in one summer in terms of changing the playing squad then changing the manager won't make much difference. Obviously considering our average spend for a player these days must be close to £50m Utd need to find smart moves in the market because to do what needs to be done you are talking £250-300m spent in one window. They've had all year to plan this they should already have the list of targets and backup targets and a good idea of which ones will happen and which ones wont.
As for the manager they need to be making this plan with or without Ole next season I do think their needs to be fair criticism of what he's doing with the players he has but he can only do so much with them he's on track to deliver less points than we did last season is that really acceptable?
The big problem remains the structure it should not be the Ole plan or the Mourinho plan or the LVG plan it should be the Utd plan you set a plan for 5 years and you bring in the right people to suit that plan a manager like a player has to be a piece of the puzzle that can be changed if it isn't working. Our club just don't want to operate like that which means every time we get it wrong we almost end up having to start again.
. I’ve long been calling for Pope as De Gea’s replacement when he leaves for ages. T
On the Burnely first goal, wtf was Jones doing? giving that free kick away
Jesus would only help us keep clean sheets, as Jesus Saves, he doesn't Score Goals.Its come's to sumet when your 10 year old says we need jesus in our team,him from city I said?no gods son because we need a mirical to get us into the top four
