Summary

#706 United lose at home to Fulham and despite many lows this season, this was one of the most dispiriting defeats. Has Erik ten Hag learned nothing from 15 defeats in all competitions this season? And with Ten Hag asking people to look at the big picture, does the Dutchman realise United's future may not include him should the season end without trophies and Champions League football. Ed & Dan ask the questions and then look ahead to Forest in the Cup.

And So, Okay, I'm with Daniel for the weekend, Pod. United 1, Fulham 2. What a nightmare Daniel. The hope was always with reservations I think that yes

0:39.2

it's better and that is good and we should be able to be a good team but should it take every

0:46.8

last player of your first and ever available for it to look even a bit like a football team and for it still to have massive problems even then

0:57.0

and the answer feels like fuck no. Yeah you're absolutely right it's two. It's the massive drop-off in quality with injured players, but also the same old tactical problems, I think.

1:09.0

And I don't know, I can't think of another manager of a leading club who changed their style so much

1:16.0

based on the players available to them.

1:18.7

Clop doesn't do it, Guadiola doesn't do it,

1:21.5

posse collo glue, maybe too chill at Bayon, but he's getting fired, so he's not a great example either, is he?

1:29.6

Ten hugs the standout in this respect.

1:31.6

He is, but there's a but

1:34.0

I'm happy to allow him the but how can you play the football he wants to play

1:39.0

when you're back for is McGuire, Lindeloff, Dallow and Varan.

1:46.0

Yeah, totally.

1:48.0

So I'm happy, I'm happy to without him that, except he didn't have to pick that back for, he chose to, and obviously he wasn't going to be good

1:55.6

whoever it was, but by putting him in to the left back, you're pretty much saying we're going to forget mainly

2:01.6

about the left-hand side, we're not going to try and build attacks

2:04.0

through down that side and I know that he didn't have many good choices he could have gone he could have

2:09.1

have on Tamborwala right back and then played Dallow at left back. I think what I probably would have done

2:16.1

the probably could have got Amreabout left back, Dallow right back and kept the

2:20.3

on the other way around. I mean yeah I would probably have gone Amrabout, right back to try and keep some width and then got down that left back probably that. But I definitely would not have gone Lindeloff at left back because we saw what we've seen what's happened

2:34.9

when that happens and and then if then when I saw the team I thought well obviously it'll be Forson down the middle because obviously he's

2:46.7

I mean I haven't seen anything from Forson that makes me think he's a United Player. I think he looks lovely on the ball
