Hull City
Man UnitedMonths worth of looking forward to the premier league starting and shot straight back down to earth, one of the worst United performances I have seen. Fair play to Hull, back in the premier league so always a game they’d be up for, we just played like it was still a friendly. Here are my takeaways: -We offered absolutely nothing going forward, crossing the ball in non stop to a forward line lacking height, made it so easy for the Hull centre backs to clear and regain their low block shape. -Hull dug in deep and have us very little breathing room to create. Scoring 2 set piece goals and defending really well. Deserving of their win. -Dorgu was shocking in that first half, looked like a giraffe on roller skates. At least Carrick has eyes and took him off at half time. Rashford offered basically nothing though but could keep control of a ball which is at least an improvement. -Tielemens was so wasteful with his passing, frustrating as he was supposed to be the midfielder we have brought in to offer us creativity from deep. -Mbuemo, Cunha and Bruno didn’t do anything. Mbuemo looked brightest as he had a few chances but still so wasteful. -We missed Seskos presence, Cunha is 10x better off the left. -Heaven was getting bullied at times, defence was shocking at set pieces where their 2 goals came from. -From a United point of view, shocking performance but 37 games to go so don’t want to overreact with anything. Have to beat Ipswich next, convincingly. -For Hull, well done. First game back and a huge 3 points on a bid for survival this season. Coventry next so could walk away with 6 points from their first 2 and they’ve shown grit which is needed for a team whose aim is to stay up.
