We will be back on Sunday :)
Martial 3 Sheffield United 0..
So the whistle blow and everything that happened against Newcastle is behind us.
First 5 mins we keep the ball well, some great movement and things are looking like the blades we have come to know so well over the last 4 years.
Man Utd did also cause us some trouble down the right side, its as if they had planned to attack. This side knowing Jack wasn’t playing. Any way eventually even though we had about 4 chances to stop the Man Utd move we failed every time and in the end Martial was quicker than bashem and hammers it into the back of the net.
After that the next 15 minutes Sheff Utd look like they had given up, This is what bash said about that time..
Man Utd was literally all over us and the next it looked a little bit like an Man Utd exhibition match.
There were some lovely touches from Fernandz, he actually looked worth every penny of the 50 million Man Utd paid for him in January. His vision of the game is like a flipping spider, those bulging eyes he's got really work well for him
In 15 minutes they had about another 3 good Chances at our goal and one disallowed goal from Maguire. It seriously was looking like we had already given up.
But..!!
Then we had the water break, and after that, we back looking good,
I think Chris must have taken this opportunity to remind the players about the first 5 minutes and whatever he said it really worked..
we were keeping the ball better in midfield and we playing like ourselves again, Robinson was getting forward on the left, and the trio on the right was moving the ball quite well.. we won I think 3 corners and it looked a bit like a bit of magic was needed and we could pinch a goal.
To be honest, the corners were disappointing, maybe the heat was making the ball carry further,
that’s the best excuse I can come up with to help you out Ollie.. I am trying..
Also, Lunny and Norwood both had half chances with the space we had made from some play.
If we could have gone in at half time 1-0 down maybe things would have been different but at 43 minutes Martial once again got goal side of Basham and slammed another home.
2-0 down Sir chis makes changes, well he’s kind of forced to take Mousett off as it looked like he picked up a knock, he put on McBurnie, and then for the first time berg took the defensive midfield position and. Off come Oli Norwood. From where I was watching Ollie was having quite an impact and was looking to attack and get the get the ball forward. Berge, on the other hand, looked like he never broke a sweat. It would be interesting to compare the data from the two players.. Im guessing ollie will start again on Sunday that’s for sure..
For the first 5 minutes of the second half we were in the game again, bash delivered a great ball in to McBurnie but he mistimed his header.. after that it was to me like watching the Liverpool match again.. we were outclassed in every part of the pitch.. Manchester United were on top form and their 200 million pound midfield just controlled the game.
74 minutes and martial took his third goal like taking candy from a kid.
So to sum it up..
We had some moments and in those moments there was some decent play, but the overall and Ok performance against a very good Manchester United was nowhere near good enough.
I do think, we will see a different game at home on Sunday, let hope so eh…
