United went to Jose ball in the last 20 min

We attempted to defend a lead in the last 20 minutes and that was our downfall. Every other game since the restart we just try to score goals but this match was different. Soton played well! But for the first 20 minutes and the last 20 minutes we tried to play a game similar to that under LvG or Jose. All tactical, not much attacking play and so for that 40 minutes of the game we played wrong.

Best form of defence is to just keep attacking, keep putting pressure on the other team, we didn't do that in the last 20 minutes of the game

i see what op means but ole had 2 options stick to players that looked knackered or bring on players that were fully rested. When you bring on McT and fred you cannot them to continue to do what pogbba and fernandes were doing.

the fact we have tried so hard to not rotate speaks volume. Beyond the first 11 we seriously lack quality and I think even ole knows it now.

Our defence has been good. But it's top 6 good, not top 3 good.

Since the restart anytime we are under pressure we concede. We've controlled games but just like with City, the cracks appear when teams go all out attack on us and press us high up the pitch.

Maguire has cost us a few goals and Lindelof tried hard but lacks quality. What was he doing on the line there?

The Matic/Maguire/Lindeloff combo is so slow and cumbersome that it forces us to play deeper than we want.

Don't worry that should be doable in 5 max.

maguire is setting off as we speak, he should have turned in the right direction by midnight

I think the idea was to be tighter. Expecting Southampton to come forward and then to finish them off on the break. But the passing to set up the counter was consistently poor. Then once we went down to 10 we abandoned that completely and attempted to shut up shop.

I thinks that’s just how the game went. Southampton presses well, they’re a tough team to play against and they had nothing to lose.
