Hey I could have commented a few times in the last few weeks but I refrained from doing so. Its not been a good patch for United unfortunately.You know it's a poor run of form when Rich returns
Good to see ya fella even if it does signal a downwards turn for United.
Of course they should, they restrict what they do in training to compensate. I don't see how you cant expect them to play twice a week. They are prefessional athletes. If I can play once a week with zero training at their age, after a night out many times. They can do it twice.
That's kinda nonsense as well. Its not that long ago many were saying Ole didn't know his best 11 because he was rotating. Its a double edge sword for him.That's nonsense mate a professional footballer should not be expected to play every 3 days for what is now 6 months Utd have had almost no midweek gaps because we have progressed in all cups and dropped into this stupid Europa League. To many of our lads have played way to many games this season with no real breaks. AWB, Maguire, Bruno and Rashford seem to play every single game they must be absolutely shattered.
Part of that is down to the summer window where they didn't reinforce the attack but Ole has also been very reluctant to use players like James, Mata and Lingard in the first half of the season and it looks like as a result the normal starters are now shot.
From that last 10 games Utd are probably 10 points short of what you could and should expect from this team but the worry is when will this slump end?
We have 5 games across 3 competitions in 14 days before a 2 week international break.

...you seem to have made a 180.
Not so long ago you disagreed when l said players needed to be better protected. Especially at this time with no preseason to speak of and games coming thick and fast.
You got there in the end.

...tell me you’re joking.
You have changed your position on this now. Which is ok.
If you cannot recall us going back and forth on this early in the season, then that is very convenient
You can hunt down our conversation, the thread where it appeared. I wouldn’t know where to start... if l had the time.
Or you can accept your position has now changed...
