    I think Cresswell is carrying an injury, he has elected to not cross several times & he is also off corner duty as Fornals is taking the side he normally takes

    Fornals tends to take them from that side when the keeper is bad with high crosses. I think maybe they’ve identified a weakness in Martinez and are putting it on him.

    I don’t normally comment until the 90 minutes has played out but this ref deserves a special mention- he’s awful. Stopping play because someone get a ball in the mush? Nah, not having that.
  • stevesteve
    We do seem to have become toothless

    Very even at half time…
    Benrahma a decent first 10-15 mins but faded after that, Fornals continues with his not so great form and Johnson struggling when going forward, all IMO..
    COYI ⚒️

    Also, why does Dawson keep letting the ball bounce

    Johnson does need to offer far more as an attacking outlet on the right

    I’d switch Lanzini & Benrahma, Benrahma as No.10 & a Lanzini from the left

    Antonio down with his hamstrings
  • alderzalderz
    Antonio going off would be a nightmare
  • alderzalderz
    He’s going back on, which is also worrying

    He's come back on, but surely only because we've no alternative. Risky imo.
  • buffybegoodbuffybegood
    And he's down again.

    Frustrating

    Nice stuff between both boxes but toothless in the area that counts, which has been the case since the window closed to be fair

    I try to stay a bit more measured about this, but I really struggle. Just no Plan B whatsoever in this squad. Again, it sounds like the front two or three are struggling to do anything productive but unless Moyes defies his usual pragmatism, Okoflex and Perkins won't be given an opportunity to try something different.

    Yarmo coming on.
  • LukerzLukerz
    Well we all knew it would happen, supposed it’s taken until March, ironic it’s the week before Sevilla second leg

    And there we go. Out of form, out of match practice but still gets the nod over the U23s who have been playing with confidence and are match sharp.
  • buffybegoodbuffybegood
    Dreadful from Benrahma again.
  • buffybegoodbuffybegood
    Poor from Lanzini in the box, not sure what he was trying to do.
  • Expat_HammerExpat_Hammer
    Benrahma is a waste of space
  • buffybegoodbuffybegood
    Cresswell down now.
  • LukerzLukerz
    Told you he was carrying a knock
  • PrestonHammerPrestonHammer
    Don't worry, Dave knows what he's doing.
  • PrestonHammerPrestonHammer
    Even though it might not look like it hahaha
  • buffybegoodbuffybegood
    Fredericks coming on by the looks of it.

    He was holding his groin in the Sevilla game. Same injury this time?

    Transfer policy really showing us up now.
  • WHU_Champo_league_in_7_yearsWHU_Champo_league_in_7_years
    And like that....seems our season is about to fall apart, Cresswell now down and coming off

    Shocking that Yarmolenko was chosen over Perkins

    Once again, Moyes needs to take responsibility here for his squad building

    Looked like the ball was a little behind him which maybe is why he didn’t take on the shot.
  • buffybegoodbuffybegood
    Phew, very close, great save by Fab, onto the post and then caught the rebound.
  • alderzalderz
    Fredericks ahead of Masuaku is mad, IMO
  • buffybegoodbuffybegood

    Fredericks on for Cresswell, Johnson switched to LB.
  • LukerzLukerz
    Why not Masuaku?
