expected goals is a load of nonsense at times. Maguire shot got a 0.10. Pereira 0.05. Only Dalot 0.35 was considered big.

Please can I frame this comment?

You’ve finally turned heel on the expected goals 🤠

Only saying it is a nonsense at times as the Pereira chance got similar to a long range shot.

How did we play lads

-----------------------------------------------

We were lacklustre.

It's highly unlikely but a game like that could be the difference in us finishing in the top 4 or not at the end of the season.

I thought when we were getting Ole, we were getting somebody who would at least live or die by attacking football.

Quality is a big problem of course it is, but it's not everything. It doesn't excuse the lack of urgency, risk and understanding in our play. We are directionless going forward when we can't counter-attack and new players won't solve these issues on their own.

I know we're hampered by injuries at the moment and I have sympathy with the manager but what we're seeing on the pitch now isn't just down to injuries because we played like this when we had Rashford, McTominay and Pogba available.

But if you're saying that xG doesn't do a good job of measuring how good chances are, how can you use it every week to show how good United are?

One thing that irks me so much is how slow ole is with making subs. Why both making two of your 3 changes in minute 87?! Sheer stupidity
