RadioactiveWaste Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 It's annoying that both their goals have had a slice of luck, but they are clearly the better team so it's not unjust at all. Lets hope we get a few moments of our own second half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’d say Wolves and Sheff Utd have had a good season and they’re above them both. Our season has been the definition of average in a division below. We should be looking for a draw minimum then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our season has been the definition of average in a division below. I’d still prefer to play them over any of the bigger sides and expect an upset. If Cocu sent those players out with no belief they could win the game then I’d be very disappointed. I’m not moaning about the performance at all. I’m just saying that anything can happen in cup football and to say we couldn’t have expected a win is pretty sad. Why have 27k Derby fans turned up to expect a loss.

Alph Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 It has become a bit hit and hope and it was a period of contagious sloppiness that gave United the momentum. Lost the plot a bit and they punished us for that. I do wish he'd gone with Forsyth at LB and Clarke at CB. I really don't like Forsyth at CB. But I don't think it's been about team selection. It was a lack of concentration and composure that encouraged them onto is. Shaw being given so much space to drive into. If he is going to keep being allowed space to get a run going like that then he'll have the game of his life. United really good at overloading the flanks. Outnumber us over and over again. Wingers are going to have to improve massively. Knight has done some good stuff but he's going to have to do even more. Considering what we need from our wide players here I'm surprised he went with Whittaker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
i-Ram Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 Man U making their quality count. Their second string right back cost more than our starting 11 put together so no great surprise. Thought the lads have all done pretty well including Forsyth, Evans and Roos. Bird struggling tonight, but he will learn from the experience. Hopefully we will see a bit more from Knight and Sibley second half, and a good chance too for Whittaker to make an impression. No real complaints from me.

Mr Tibbs Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 2 minutes ago, Ramarena said: I think some people think we are playing Sheff Wed again. If you can’t see the difference in quality from the passing, to the midfield runners breaking through our lines, etc then I don’t know what to tell you! Nah, definitely United. A United side missing some key players too. Fully backed Cocu’s chopping and changing but this one has me scratching my head. Where has a Fozzy and Evans CB partnership come from? Why try all three young lads in a midfield against the toughest opposition we’ll play all year? Just a bit bemused. Love the FA cup and hate when we throw it. If you’re not arsed fair doo’s. Let’s hope they sit off and we can get back in the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Comrade 86 Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 Depressing how quickly some folk turn on the players and the manager. We could easily have had a goal first half and be right in this, against a very good side too, but hey, let's tear it all down instead ?♀️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Van der MoodHoover Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 Really we needed good fortune and it's not gone our way. Our form guy crocked, the bounce of the ball going their way, our best moments coming early and coming to nothing so they settled. Not our night, regardless of the difference in league position.

Ghost of Clough Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 McManaman’s frustrating me with his comments about us playing the kids instead of experienced players... I don’t think anyone would argue against the 5 youngsters we started. Very close from Waggy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
