Leeds/Man U

Usually a bit tasty this fixture.
Pity they can't both lose...

Great chance for DL in the 3rd min.

Leeds defeat all day long. Be hilarious to see them relegated

Leeds defeat for me as well.

Most one sided rivalry in football.

Good chance for Fernandez then should have done better.

What a poor match. 30 minutes in and they are both shocking.
Weghorst had two passes to feet. They mustn’t like the guy.

HiThere · Post by **HiThere** » Sun Feb 12, 2023 2:39 pm

Leeds have 30% possession and a pass completion rate of 71%. Very poor.

Man Utd look awful.
They can't carry the ball, can't beat a man, can't put a cross in, can't play the simplest of passes.
They make us look brilliant. Different levels I know, but they just have to be capable of better than this.

HiThere · Post by **HiThere** » Sun Feb 12, 2023 2:43 pm

Man U will improve again once they take Weggy off.

ElectroClaret · Post by **ElectroClaret** » Sun Feb 12, 2023 2:47 pm

Great chance wasted for Man U.

CombatClaret · Post by **CombatClaret** » Sun Feb 12, 2023 2:49 pm

United fans on Twitter saying problem the with Weghost is the service, the system and his team mates.
How has he convinced the world he is an amazing footballer, it's everything around him that lets him down.

Yep, slowly finding out he's a fraudster.

Neither of today’s premier league games on Peacock in the USA. And yet they have an exclusive, are supposed to show all games, and are not showing either. It’s not as if it clashes with Superbowl, which is eight hours from now

I’ll have to watch England vs Italy instead

Stupid question. Why are they playing each other twice in a week?

1st game was rearranged due to the Queen's death, it does seem bizarre for them to meet twice in the space of a few days though, but I guess particularly given Man Utd's heavy schedule there wasn't many spare dates to squeeze the games into.

Don't get the fraudster thing. What has he done that is fraudulent? Isn't he just trying to play football to the best of his ability?

We got back to the local (Maypole Inn) last evening after the game ... A couple staying at the pub (Manure Fan and wife) asking if we could "please recall Weggy

cos he is **** " ...

Needless to say we said we hope Man U buy him because we don't want him

Man Utd are trying to play out the back like we do but the are just so slow! Watching McGuire on the ball is painful

De Gea is really poor on the ball for it. Wouldn’t surprise me to see a new keeper there in the summer.

It’s hard to exaggerate just how bad Maguire has been on the ball today.

Rileybobs · Post by **Rileybobs** » Sun Feb 12, 2023 3:33 pm

Even his simple passes that reach a team mate are placed between their feet and at an awkward pace. Looks like he’s forgotten how to play football.

Slows the game down to a snail's pace too. Fine if you're winning...

Yeah he’s been the biggest culprit for Man Utd not being able to cross the half way line.

Leeds fans cheering because Rashford has a goal ruled out for offside - you're already 2-0 down you dipshits!

Weggy has the ball in the net but ruled out.

Yet spent 35.5m on a new striker in Jan who scored 2 in 15 this season.

HiThere · Post by **HiThere** » Sun Feb 12, 2023 4:02 pm

Looking at their next lot of fixtures. Everton away and then Southampton at home.
But they then have Fulham, Chelsea, Brighton, Wolves, Arsenal, Palace, Liverpool, Fulham.

You could well be right, they don't often keep clean sheets either which adds to the pressure on their forwards to bag.

I actually don’t think you are far off TT. I’ve watched all their games with Weggy featuring and the number of times he is “chosen” as the player to receive a pass is few at best. He feeds off second balls. I actually think they don’t like him, or at least don’t trust him
