Not a surprised when you look at their backline is it? Full of inexperienced players at that level. Also an inexperienced manager at CL level really. 

What does this have to do with inexperience? This simply comes down to basic defending, basic organization in a corner kick situation. This shouldn't be happening at all at the highest level and certainly not in the 12th minute of a game!

Seriously, how can a club like Manchester United in the Champions League concede a goal from this in the 12th minute (not even the 92nd minute but 12th!)???

 

That's like our stupid moment against Arsenal last season but not in the 12th minute..always fun when it's not you! And in this competition wouldn't expect that from a team like that

They were doing well a few weeks ago!

Most shocking thing was when Maguire said to the Greek police ''Do you know who I am ?''

£80m  -Leicester must have been laughing all the way to the bank

He said that? What cuz he is a footballer ( a lousy one at that ) he thinks he is above others? What a mongrel.

I honestly thought when i first saw this it was at the 90+ minute mark. Shocking it was the 12th.

OLE IN!

True but you can see that these things can also happen due to naivety which stems from a lack of experience at that level.

Seriously, what has this gotta do with experience? It's just down to simple coaching and organization. If the opposing team leave 1 player upfront, then you have 2 players at the back - 1 to deal with that player and the other to cover. But in this case, the players who were supposed to stay back and defend for United just went AWOL - one of them was Matic (is he inexperienced!?). This shouldn't be happening in professional football, never mind the Champions League, and it was only in the 12th minute!

I fucking HATE Maguire on every level

I hate Kane, but respect the hell out of him as a player

Maguire is the most overrated CB on the planet, AND a cunt deluxe to boot

Its poor decision making sure and the coaching as with OGS is questionable but even then if Ba beats Matic if he has been goal side you’d be asking wheres the CBs or FBs? 

Has OGS said to his whole back 4 to stay up there? 

Or have some inexperienced CL players been naive thinking nothing will come of it and haven't made their way back when they should? Wan Bissaka, Tuanzebe and Maguire have barely played a lot of CL football (Maguire is a disaster anyway). Dean Henderson also made his first CL start. 

You could be a coaching genius but the fact nobody switched on, noticing Ba and that nobody tried getting back. Yes they could have said stay back but the fact they didnt try to get back in is even more embarrassing. 

Regardless. Poor decision making at any level. Embarrassing goal by all accounts.

Not really sure why OGS's recruitment gets raved about so highly. They're all decent players (Dan James aside) but apart from VDB and possibly Telles (huge doubts defensively but his stats going forward are mental) all have high flaws that will prevent them ever being in future title winning sides. AWB can't attack, Maguire's can't play up high, Bruno can't retain possession very well and Cavani is long done.
