OneMoSalah 8,886 Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 3 minutes ago, Jase said: His wayward goal radar aside, you said it as if he doesn't contribute assists (okay there is none today but still) to the team. I shall say so no more for fear of getting an essay-length reply. 🤣 He does sometimes assist but your making out he did it every game or that he didnt have wee bursts where he got so many in a row then did nothing for ages last season. I don’t know how you can sit and act as if hes contributing to the team, theres not been any clear signs of progression with him in pre-season either and it’s worrying. I hope it changes with Lukaku playing but ultimately if it doesn’t he will find himself on the bench and soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do u actually watch the game of do u just watch who ever is on the ball? I suggest just watching werners movement and runs etc etc and just watch the space he creates and the players he pulls out of position.

Also we scored 8 against Palace last season. And also we started last season with 3 goals against Brighton (Zouma, James and Jorginho scored). We need more from attackers. This game did not look different in that department. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pizy 18,918 Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 Something that looked much better than many times last season was how crisp and quick our passing was. There wasn’t any of that annoying walking pace stuff that infuriated me so many times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, he did go through a barren run last season but do we just ignore the context of him losing confidence during that period before getting somewhat better after Tuchel came in? 4 minutes ago, OneMoSalah said: I don’t know how you can sit and act as if hes contributing to the team Did he not contribute to the team under Tuchel last season? Sure, the goals were lacking but the assists weren't. We'll see what happens this season. 6 minutes ago, OneMoSalah said: theres not been any clear signs of progression with him in pre-season either and it’s worrying. He only played 2 pre-season games and just 4 games overall. Are you really expecting progression so fast immediately after the summer break? Has anyone showed clear signs of progression so far this season, besides the goals? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He often moves the defence and is non stop. Today was not a good day. I dont ever remember his first touch being as bad as it was today. I hope he gets it together because he could really be good for Lukaku. Pulisic would be the one to put him on the bench if Puli plays better link up with Lukaku.

Blue Armour 4,442 Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 Beautiful start! A thumping win and a clean sheet to boot., and this without our main goal threat yet to start. Granted Palace were useless, but I thought Kovacic and Jorginho absolutely bossed it in the middle of the park. Mount looked sharp as usual, Timo hard working, Pulisic back to goal scoring. And Havertz had an electric cameo too. Should have added a 4th. But good that we scored 3, given Uniteds fantastic start. We could actually have multiple contenders this season and every goal could count. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nero 1,875 Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 - Alonso over Chilwell, Pulisic over Havertz (fans weren't too happy about that). - Chalobah starts. And ironically, all players scored. Tuchel know exactly what he's doing. DH1988 and Atomiswave 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If his presence keeps helping the team create moments of history like that then he can never score again for all i care. YorkshireBlue 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
