Unreal Second Half, Garnacho is amazing

-


Amazing attacking intent from the team as we come from behind to win the game. Garnacho was simply brilliant, Bruno was the key, Martial is back with a bang and Rashford continues his form. Ten Hag got plenty to learn from this game. Bruno can only play well when he's played in the attacking midfielder position, which I mentioned in my last blog. Donny Van de Beek ghosted his game once again. It's time he gets dropped, it's not working out and be sold in January. Garnacho came off the bench and got himself 2 assists, his cross for the 4th goal was brilliant. Fred was ineffective as the only creator left, with VDB having another bad game and Bruno in the right wing in the first half. I think he can only play well when he's asked to play a highly aggressive game. 



Defensively, it was a disaster, with Lindelof and Maguire back as a defensive partnership for this league cup game. Maguire was sleeping for the Watkins goal and second goal, we were unlucky with the Dalot deflection, but we were still sloppy. McTominay took his goal well, but he should stop getting dumb yellow cards every time he plays. He should use his aggression as his strength and not make it his weakness.

I have become a Garnacho fanboy at this point. He is simple amazing and plays for the batch. Get him that pro contract as soon as possible. Sancho is done and dusted if he doesn't improve, and Garnacho continues to show this level. 


Next up, Fulham on Sunday. GGMU

The game I love.

It's been almost 11 years. I can't believe it's been so long since I started following football casually. Been a supporter of the club Manchester United ever since the summer of 2013 I believe. How have I started supporting this club? You'll laugh when you find out why I even started supporting football.  The summer of 2013, I was 9 years old. Every kid loves summer break after school, and so did I. I was excited to go to my grandparents' house in my father's hometown like always. I used to enjoy playing board games with my cousins over there. Uno, Chess, Ludo what not.  As always, during one of our play "sessions", one of my aunts brought us some stationary things as a gift. One of them was a stationary pouch, red in colour, with a giant logo in the centre. A club logo with a devil facing forward holds a trident with both hands. And my 9-year-old self couldn't think of a logo cooler than that. I had no idea about football; up until that point, I o

Nobody did it like Beckham

Nobody did it like Beckham Today marks 30 years since David Beckham made his professional debut for Manchester United. On this occasion, I decided to give a tribute to a great player and one of my idols. Who is Beckham? Well, for starters, he is one of the most popular people in the world. He's known worldwide and a household name, even for non-football fans. Why? His looks, obviously. But for me and any sane football fan, the word Beckham reminds us of a person who was one of the best footballers of his generation. Known for his pinpoint passes, crossing ability and the sexy free-kicks, work rate and his dribbling as a right-midfielder, winger, centre midfielder. He could play anywhere! Early Life David Robert Joseph Beckham was born in London, England. He was given the middle name Robert in honour of Bobby Charlton, his father's favourite player. If you don't know who Bobby is, consider reading my previous blog. His parents were die-hard United fans who frequently travell

Inevitable Rashford

We win 2-0. Rashford of course scores again and Garnacho shuts the critics. This was our worst performance since the World Cup. But, WHO CARES? We won.  The starting line-up today was questionable, with neither Varane nor Martinez starting, but I understand the decision as we prepare for Barcelona on Thursday. Martinez is suspended for the first leg, so Shaw will be playing the left centre back, which leads me to think Ten Hag started Shaw as LCB to get more used to the position he has been playing lately, like against City.  Maguire is, let's be honest, not good enough. Defensively he was solid, apart from the one moment which led to a Leeds chance which he did recover from, but his passing let the team down, slowing our tempo. Bringing on Martinez changed our game for the better. Fred had an amazing game and deserved the man of the match. We missed Casemiro a lot in the game. Sancho was our main threat in the first half, I raised my eyebrow when he was taken off instead of Weghor
