Its sad that so many fans look this Utd team from the perspective of glory days. They are always disappointed because every win is expected and every loss is a catastrophe. I was really surprised that Sack Amorim is going around again when in my view Utd is getting better all the time.

I understand what you mean. It kind of depends on what is the definition of control. Maybe I should have said that Utd managed to stop the relentless pressure to the box for 15-20 minutes. :D

In my view this was quite good from Amorim. Utd surprised New in first half. Lost Mount and New figured them out. Amorim changed things and Utd got control back for 60-80 min. The end was always hard, but the team fought it out. When you look at the team and bench today it wasnt going to be pretty.

The squad composition is so bad that building a good starting eleven is really hard.

If he plays his best players in their best positions the formation is something like 4 DC, 1 RB, 1 DM, 4 AM and 1 ST. Of course if its like three best players then Bruno, Cunha and Mboumo play all on AM? Not sure if that works either.

Was thinking the same.

Was there something in the match that surprised you? Either tactically or playerwise.

Totally worth the wait! Thanks for the great analysis!

Can't wait!

Its quite hard not to get over excited and be realistic of what we can expect from the team. I'm also looking forward to all the different analysis from the first matches.
