“Pogba makes up for his mistake by getting sent off”, “A box to box striker” 😂😂 so glad JJ did this one. Absolute goldmine
True
Cavani 'box to box striker" 😂
This is comedy genius
To be fair, once he's off he can't make any more mistakes. It's a valid strategy.
Absolutely agree, JJ is just great
He forgot that Ronldo was playing as a Taekwondo rookie.
"that's too much work for a human, and it's definitely too much for fred and mctominay." Tifo ain't pulling any punches yo!
@@davidwalker5489 buying a CDM isn’t gonna solve the problem but it is going to improve a lot, United is simply too top heavy and not having a CDM is a problem
even makalele and kante will struggle in that setup
@@davidwalker5489 That is spot on from you, Even greenwood and rashford is one to blame because they didnt track back & help to defend. Modern football encourage you to have another atribute outside of your position, Fullback should have passing & crossing attributes going forward, Winger & striker should track back whenever necessary to press. Manchester united doesn't do that, they are playing traditional football.
@@venkatesheraser but that is the whole point, if they would have a good #6 they would not have to set up like they do now... Like Michael said, it would not solve all problems, but it would definitely help.
On the other side, the investments United has done, is old school. Buy football names, and not a team. Signing Sancho and Ronaldo in the same window is just abysmal from a sporting point of view. That is 2 players you needed the least, building on how the team played last season. Sancho is not a horrible purchase, but for that amount, and for as little defensive capabilities he has.
Something is still rotten at United and that has not only to do with the manager.
Also don’t forget that they played against two of the best front-3 combo at the moment. No dis respect against jota, but mané is better
"Pogba then makes up for his mistake by getting sent off" had me choking on water.
Love these guys!
I got caught on box to box striker XD
😂😂
I watched the tackle live it wasn't a bad tackle but you can clearly see frustration on pogpa part and ronaldo when he Jones

No striker have that amount of stamina to consistently go deep inside his own penalty box.
@@r3zaful i dont think any human could ever be a box to box striker ever, it would be like running a marathon and thats probably just in 1 half of the game lol
@@r3zaful especially since how quick football is nowadays
@@himum3429 No, Pique invented that.
slate Ole all you want but he's inventing new positions like Box-to-box striker and converting shaw to a centre back in a back 1
Not the innovations we needed nor deserved
The Innovations that *just* happened
Frikkin genius that man
😢😂😂😂
pretty sure he was the left centerback in a back 1
that is what Liverpool can do to you. That game they should have started with a good park the bus strategy. Considering their recent form, I was expecting at least a draw if Ole did that.
dun forget harry maguire who excels in the box-to-box centreback and playmaking centreback roles
Solskjaer has said himself that he told his team to play with a high press because ‘we’re Manchester United and we have to assert ourselves on the game’. Which just kind of highlights his tactical naivety, and played straight into Liverpool’s hand.
should've sat deep and use counterattack with Rashford and Greenwood's running on the wing and Ronaldo stay high up to receive ball inside the box.
unless they're as good as City (at the very least) in pressing, they shouldn't even try to challenge Liverpool in pressing.
Yeah "WHERE MAN UTD" doesn't work anymore like it used too...
You can't high press against Liverpool unless you are City or Bayern Munich who do it in an out every week
Pride comes before the fall ( or in this case came before the fall)
@@HenSt-gz7qj That's the heart of the problem. He said "we played pressure against liverpool like we did for the last two years". But that's not what you did u moron, you sat deep and counter attacked. It's like he has no idea how he won before against liverpool, it just happened by luck, his entire vision of what went right and wrong is just in a reality of it's own !
This game felt like it personally offended JJ and it's perfectly understandable. Even live you could point out so many defensive errors
Yeah just watching Man united deteriorate over the years and continue with this manager is just so disappointing like I usually have a laugh when they lose especially at Old Trafford but jeez this was just sad
@@thisIsFunnyLolz well I don’t agree at all this was the best of the lot, it reminded me of ten years ago except it was Ferguson in charge that day and Utd were just destroyed by a much better side, here they just gifted the game to their opponents through the ineptitude of their players and managers, there was nothing inept about utd under Ferguson
Hahahahha agreed
@@GuinessOriginal did you watch the video?
Who is JJ?
I don’t think it should be called “creating an overload” if Salah is just standing by himself in his normal position.
Salah is that good 😎
one man is an overload for utd 🤣
The thing is Man u just overloaded themselves. Bissaka just ran into midfield and left his back line out numbered for the first goal
@@Lightwaverable The best defensive fullback that Wan-Bissaka
Likewise Trent just by running up the wing or Henderson moving beyond the centre-circle
there's something particularly withering about the disappointment in JJ's eyes
Nice to see Seb pop up at the end in his shiny new merch too
JJ wanted Ole in the job as long as humanly possible so he could watch United crumble.
I didn't see Seb on the merch. Where's he?
@@ma7eus97 He's in Hamburg so that probably made it hard to include him.
@@iwantgoals1566 qqqq we w
Let's be honest - Liverpool stopped scoring after the sending off as they were just riding out the game trying to avoid any more injuries. Especially after Pogba's challenge and Ronaldo's lash out at Jones. They were very casual in their passing around, slowed right down and it felt almost like they pitied United.
Can't get Ole sacked too soon!
Yep.. and they want Ole to stay and turn 2ndhalf as their training ground. Otherwise it will 8-0
Try to play Ronaldo onside a couple of times at least. Maybe 4:2 would've kept him at the wheel another season. Liverpool really fckd up here not allowing others to draw the water from the well.
"Man United are trying to press one of the best teams in the entire world at playing through a press, with players that cannot press and do not press" - wow, that's absolutely savage JJ.
Also I will be buying some Merch purely on the strength of that song. Bravo, Joe!
That blackout T is pure dope. Better hurry up before it's gone.
It was also 100% truth...
I honestly think Klopp was like, "boys, lets not do something stupid here and score more goals and get Ole fired...... just keep possession and practice ball retention"
Klopp was probably trying to save his players from further attempted assassinations like from Fernandes, Ronaldo on Curtis, or the successful assassination from Pogba on Keita.
@@besterich277 yes, its hardly just this game either, its becoming a pattern. our derby against everton derailed our whole season last year. seems like teams are realizing they cant beat us without cheating
Yes Klopp said it was more about controlling the game after 5 nil.
@@MattMajcan Yea Keita injury could be costly for the season.
Yep.
That song is pure art, beautiful stuff
😭😂😂😂 the look Alex shoots JJ
Yeah it was annoyingly beautiful 😂👍
what's the name of the song?
There was pure joy on JJ's face when he said well done Man United
The fact Salah alone accumulated more xG than us
Ronaldo had more kicks of Curtis Jones than shots in target
Superb. Your knowledge combined with your humour creats an incredible analysis. Loved it and thank you!!

How have you edited your comment and still misspelled *striker?
@@sopronunciareglignocchi7255 Yes, I'm human, but it's pretty obvious that it's striker.
Still, hope you find satisfaction in chasing strangers around the internet about oversights and typos. Best of luck with that kind of existence.
@@jcronin3155
Instead of writing a low IQ snarky comment, just correct the spelling and jog on.
Learn to take criticism like a champ, and grow up.
So either Ole's players don’t listen to him, in which case he should leave, or he is actually coaching them to do this, in which case he should leave. I’m not sure there are many other options.
I dont think its either. i think they simply arent being coached at all. you could see them all looking around yesterday on the pitch after a goal went in, because they want someone to tell them how to fix this, but they arent getting any instruction.
The other option would be to stay with him because he's cheap to keep around, at least until winter transfer window when they can offload half the starters and get better players, and a better coach on a discount maybe.
Dark days ahead for ManU
@@MattMajcan Maguire.......
🤣🤣🤣
@@gadget00 we need prooer triggers
As an lfc fan , I know liverpool's weakness .
Defensive organized teams that have all 11 players behind the ball , sit back and hit on the counter.
That is the only proven way I've seen to beat us or get a draw.
Manu are usually very good at that.
But Ole decides "Were going to press them. "
Hands us easiest 3 points at old Trafford ever.
I don't know why he decided to change what he normally does against Liverpool.
I was convinced it was going to be a draw but apparently we like to experiment against the top 6.
@@adainjarrio the fact you were convinced it was going to be a draw sums up United manager ,fans and recruitment department
Omg that’s exactly how Madrid won the UCL final by sitting deep on low block and hit Liverpool on a counter. Park the buss what a masterclass from The great Carlo Ancelotti. Took a page out of “The special one “book
Can’t wait for the eventual, “How Will Manchester United Adapt to the Conte 3-5-2?” videos from you guys and Football Meta! 🤣😂
Never going to happen OLE isn't getting sacked..
If they replace Ole with Conte they have learned nothing in the last decade. the only coach that can save United are not yet available. If anyone think Zidane and Conte have what it takes, you can basically throw away all the build ups Ole and United have done in the last 3 years.
@@AeonQuasar It was a joke mate! But no manager can fix the defensive woes caused by basically playing 4 strikers and none of them interested in playing defense which both channels pointed out today.
but why ? aren't we all want to see ole on the whell ? to give us joy and happiness. 😂
luke shaw, maguire, mctom as 3 back sounds pretty decent (varane is currently injured iirc)
Ole: "boys, we have to press them, we're man utd"
squad: "okay how do u press"
Ole: no idea mate just wing it on the day i guess"
“That is too much work for a human. It is definitely too much work for Fred and McTominay.”
bro the slight digs are hilarious, the consistent implications on how Greenwood was a passenger is jokes, so is united I guess
Liverpool winning 5-0 at old Trafford and Tifo merch, what a time to be alive
"i dont know why he does this" sums up OGS coaching in a nutshell
This game reminded me of playing Pro Clubs. 4 forwards played by players who all just want to score goals, and 6 AI defenders getting ripped apart by a better organised team.
wow thats perfect
Pretty apt. Crossed my mind too the minute he put the top 4 way up there on the board and left the huge gap in the middle :D
I remember feeling like Arteta wasn’t good enough after watching JJ’s analysis of a few Arsenal games. But this, this was like a million times worse. He tore Ole and ManU a new one
and arteta is finding form now too 😅
I mean arteta trying to implement man city tactics into average arsenal squad, he coached man city and beat arsenal as well.
was it the doughnut of despair or something?
"Pogba then makes up for his mistake by being sent off"
😭😭😭
Can we just appriciate how keita played yesterday. Man went back in forth from one end of the pitch to the other like it was training😂😂
I can't wait for FM23's addition of the Box-to-Box Striker role. It's going to be revolutionary.
"That is too much for a human, and it's definitely too much for fred and mctominay" Ngolo Kante on the other hand would have handled that with a smile on his face.
Prove it
@@captainmalone3217 ... It's a joke. Don't be a tool
@@ondank he already do that many times
Some great one liners in that. I would love to see a series "how would you do it" were you explain a counter tactic. Should you sit back and let Liverpool come onto you or is there a press that doesn't result in you getting torn to shreds?
Interesting.
I think, since none of Manchester's strikers really does anything remotely linked to pressing, playing a high press against Liverpool is basically harakiri no matter how you try to employ it.
A back three might be a good start. Lying deep, trying to win the ball somewhere between the middle line and your own penalty area, and then searching for quick counter attacks making the best use of your pacy sprinters.
@@lonestarr1490 I think so too. Three at the back would allow the defence to pivot without giving up space. certainly controlling the half spaces between the is vital, tho its then handling Liverpools wing play.
Its a tricky hypotheical too because Untied played so poorly and weren't well drilled for this. There are certain players doing things they just shouldn't do (they're not bad players, just poor choices for what was required)
@@lonestarr1490 if Bruno goal went in we win
@@lonestarr1490 you're on to something....if I recall, in 2019, when liverpool looked unstoppable in the league and at that point had only dropped 2 points, they were fortunate to walk out of old Trafford with a draw. I believe Ole did play with a 5 back set and looked he better team
Honestly could have been a lot more then 5-0. Liverpool went into injury prevention mode after Keita went off
So pogba was smart
Tifo Merch😂
I swear the musicals been killing me off late 🤣🤣🤣
This was the most easy to understand tactical analysis I've ever seen, just a flat out disaster on every level.
Been excited for this since the full time whistle!
Merch ad is gold, when is the album coming out, stuck inside a scattergram, merch song, ... keep em coming ;)
Ferguson lost 6-1 but he had titles to back him up and that was a one off.
Moyes got sacked because he took champions to Europa league
LVG was fired because he put everyone to sleep.
Mourniho was fired because the mood was sour and they didn't wanna back the manager over the players after not backing him in the transfer market.
Ole has been given a budget, time and resources.
Lost 3 semi finals.
Lost a Eurpoa league final.
Hasn't adapted tactically from the first caretaker stint.
But hey let's keep this guy.
Before you know if Utd will be celebrating beating Stoke in the Carling Cup.
I commented this in your video a few days ago criticising Ronaldo for not putting in defensive work. United to do not counterpress and do not know how to press. This is tactical as it predates Ronaldo's arrival.
I'm glad you made a video highlighting the tactical inadequacies of a manager who has been here for 3 years rather than pointing the finger at a new signing.
When do u recall this club ever being good at the press?🤔🤔🤔
@@1colinb when did I say that we were? Pressing is a tactical decision, I never said United have to press. But if a team is going to press then they need to do it with a system and structure so that it works and doesn't just open up space for the opposition like we saw against Liverpool.
Burnley don't press, Jose parks the bus, even Conte prefers a low block out of possession but whatever the tactic is the key thing is to do it with some structure and strategy.. that's what the manager and coaching staff are supposed to be for, hence why we see clueless individuals on the pitch every week.
@@mohammeddmalik u know that I never said u said. U r correct on the point about structure.
I was attempting to make a historical reference.
Under which former manager would we have seen the press deployed?
Berbatov wasn't appreciated by the fans because he wouldn't hustle the defenders hard enough.
Would they tolerate a front 4 today where hustling defenders is not part of their skill set?
@@1colinb then we are in agreement mate, I'm not saying we have to counterpress, it's just of style of play. Just like zonal marking or man to man marking, both are fine just so long as they are done well.
The problem at United is not the squad or players, it's clearly the lack of coaching and tactics. 3 years at the club and we still have no style of play other than moments of individual brilliance.
And to answer your question, Jose, LVG and Moyes are not known for counterpressing either so I agree with you. I think SAF probably would have deployed it by now though as he was always able to evolve with the game and the front press is a fairly recent addition to top tier football.
I love the way you insinuate Fred & Mctoninay are below the average ‘Human’ 🤣🤣🤣
Great video. Cherry on top was the merch song love that😂
Liverpool always sets trap for Pogba. They mark every other outlets so that the ball is passed to Pogba. Because he needs an extra second on the ball, they pounce on him from all angles and take the ball away. Mourinho knew this and after a couple of matches, stop starting Pogba against Liverpool.
Mourinho masterclass, 6-1 against BodøGlimt.
Answer: They literally put a PE teacher in charge of their team
the same PE teacher that Alex Stewart was saying is "fine" and shouldn't be sacked in his chat with Joe about two weeks ago. Clueless.
Dont compare Ole to a PE teacher. The manager of Bodø was literally a PE teacher and he has done way better than Ole
@@lukashradecky5492 Arguable they have done the same (both winning the Norwegian league and doing decent in Europe), but Kjetil Knutsen have done it with minimal finances, while Ole got backed by rich sponsors just when every team in the league had financial problems.
Still as with Ole he needs more experience in the top flight, and I hope to see both Solskjaer and Knutsen getting a chance at a mid team in Europe. Solskjaer have been a success for United in terms of stability and build up, but lack the 10-20% to get them back at the top. And there are not many other managers that can do that anyway.
Jose Mourinho was also a P.E. teacher.
Cavani didn't stop the goals by coming on, Pogba did by getting sent off. Seriously, it was after the red card that Liverpool stopped trying.
The Cavani change was abysmal too. He had McFred and Cavani playing as this narrow 3 man midfield, but Liverpool just walked around the wings of it and the 3 never seemed to have any idea what they were doing. They didn't press properly, they didn't sit back in a tight block properly, they didn't maintain their structure across the 3 of them and Henderson and Jones just picked through them for the last half hour
Ole was dreadful in his tactics from start to finish.

Box to box striker! 😂 perfect analysis, JJ

OMG that is comedy GOLD
Loved it.. simple explanation... to the 👉.. box to box striker!!
I remember watching Fulham vs United last season and being impressed by utds pressing game with Cavani leading the line! Cavani is the guy for them, ronaldo is literally a baby who needs to be spoon fed passes
How a team can have Cavani and not play him is a complete disgrace
W€i£d i$nt it! I wonder why
In some teams, he can be spoon fed passes and it works but not for Man Utd. Man Utd aren't the old lady, it's a young, fast, and dynamic team and Ronaldo doesn't fit in.
@@ryanfinnerty6239 Utd also have Verane, de Beek & Sancho sitting around playing FIFA too.
It's not only Ronaldo, the youngest players don't press either, if Oe decided to get Ronaldo then he should have a plan for it.
this analysis was just beautiful. JJ's disappointment can be felt from several continents away
YESS been waiting for this ever since I saw the match
JJ Bull I love you, put my exact thought in video form. Thank you
I would love to hear the reactions of Carrick, McKenna, Phelan and Ole to this analysis. I think it would go over their heads.
This is one of the best summaries I have seen on the issues of Ole’s united. Just someone please show this to the Glazers and lets get a real coach in here.
you’re really good at this JJ. cheers boss.
The merch song was too much 😂.. great vid as always JJ 🙌🏼
I was talking to my brother, Thursday night, and saying this is how I'd set up for the game.
3-4-1-2.
Maguire, Lindelof and Wan-Bissaka in the back three. (Bissaka offers nothing going forward but can tackle, so may as well try him there.) That way you have enough back that if one inevitably fucks up, there should be cover.
Play Shaw as the more defensively minded wing-back on the left.
Play Sancho as a wing-back on the right with the idea being he can be a bit more attacking as Wan-Bissaka can be behind that area.
You play Fred and Van De Beek in the middle. Fred does work hard, and with 3 behind him is less likely to be exposed. Van De Beek can offer Pogba's passing range but, as we saw against West Ham, he's much better at getting stuck in and disrupting play as well. Basically, he's a slightly less technical Pogba with a much higher work-rate.
You play Bruno as a 10. Not a false 9 - where he's pretty much useless - but as an actual 10 who drops back sometimes and dictates things. He can do this, I've seen him do it at Portugal.
Then you have Ronaldo and Cavani up top. Ronaldo to cause enough threat to pin back Liverpool's defenders, and Cavani doing his 'run-around-like-a-matador' thing.
Not saying this team would win, but I doubt it would let in 5.
The midfield would still be be over run, don't understand why united have to insist on having a forward in midfield in Bruno.
@@bri1085 Possibly, yes. Perhaps Bruno is best-served missing out on these games. Thing is, he isn't a forward though, he's a 10. It's just that Ole insists on playing him so damn high he feels like a forward.
Portugal used him in a 3 when behind against Belgium. While they didn't quite come back, they did take control of the game and possession for the last 20 minutes and Bruno was a big part of that.
But sure, if you really wanted to, you could drop Bruno for Matic. Problem then is the team can't get out to attack.
@@pinealdreams1064 I mean you could probably drop Fabinho for Salah at Liverpool, and he'd fine for the most part, but you're losing his best assets. Bruno is a forward for all intents and purposes that's where his best assets lie, not in the middle third but the final third
@@bri1085 We'll have to agree to disagree. I've seen him played further up for Portugal and be absolute useless, then dropped back into an 8/6 role and them gain control of the game.
@@pinealdreams1064 and united we've seen him be useless and great in both roles
Ole just isn't used to the new match engine
That is quite an explanation…
It IS in beta...
I’m a BIG fan of the occasional themed songs you guys come up with
finally a great JJ video were the jokes are focused, go with and are about the analysis! I'm watching it a second time
That merchandise promo was ELITE 🔥😂
if you've got a team that isn't used to pressing you can't just flick a switch and expect them to go out and press. the teams that press well drill that stuff in preseason & in training. that, as best as I can figure, is what ole tried to do.
He most likely believed in using the fact it was a Derby and they were at home to be brave.
Hansi Flick joke of the week
Ole has had 3 years with this team why can't they press, he's spend hundreds of millions on the best talent, why can't they press?
@@zac5572 spending a lot of money on players without regard for the style you want them to play (or not even having a clear idea of what style you want them to play in the first place) is a good recipe for having a lot of underperforming players
Great analysis, great humour! I died on "Box to box striker" 🤣
Joe put more heart into this tune than ever before. I shed tears.
Manchester United are lucky, Liverpool aren't ruthless like Bayern else it would have been 10+.
Liverpool stepped off the gas after 5.
You dont get extra points for goals. And manchester’s frustration had already injured keita. The damage, both in terms of scoreline, and mentally, had already been done. No sense risking good players against an average side you are easily beating when you have Brighton coming up.
On the contrary, Salah mentioned in an interview that at halftime they decided they wanted to make history and to keep scoring as many goals as possible in the 2nd half. and they started out doing that too with salah scoring right after halftime. But after keitas injury they changed their mind
Yes, “thank-you Man Utd”, for thinking a team that bearly got a win vs an Atalanta side missing 6 of their 1st choice players could handle 1 of the top 5 sides in the world. Hubris!
Top 3*
I think they could have if they played differently. I don't know why they went out and tried to press though.
and man how they made it look as if it was such a big deal. Bloody clowns.
@@nurcirino maybe 2-3 years ago

"Too much for a human [...] Definitely too much for Fred and McTominay" casually implying that McFred are less than human.
Wrong. Casually implying that McFred are just human.
Giving this a like just for the wonderful choreography and angelic singing in the merch ad.
That song at the end by joe 😭😂 God I love this channel
I was so excited when Varane was first announced, envisioned United finally being able to condense the pitch and pressuring teams in their own half, a-la City and Liverpool. Then along came Ronaldo....brilliant player, but in complete contrast to the style of play we've been building towards for 3 years.
with just the addition of Varane??? this isn't Football manager
What style of play?
@@gambit0913 World class centre half with excellent recovery pace, in theory completes the back 4 that's been in assembly the past 2 years and allows them to play a higher line. Midfield obviously still an issue but yeah, I thought he'd make a big difference, I think most people did.
Earlier video on Mctominay was insightful and as a Liverpool supporter, I would have also exploited it as a manager of any team as well. Uncertainty of his role and where he pivots …
I like the explantion, nit the ending dance is hilarious😅👍👍
Another thing to think about is perhaps Bruno's pass to Pogba was sloppy (something Bruno is infamous for) and that meant Pogba had to lunge for the ball to prevent Keita from intercepting and unleashing a quick counter from another Man Utd corner (Utd are infamous for that too)...you've made some valid points about Pogba in both situations, I'm just offering a different perspective. 👍🏾
JJ‘s sass convinces me that he‘s a United fan💀
As a Liverpool fan I watched this video like I watched the match once we went 3-0 up: with the biggest grin on my face! (and hoping Klopp stays with us forever, because I've never seen a more cohesive and talented Liverpool team in my life)
Honestly though, this is another great analysis from Tifo, you guys are the best football tactics channel there is!
Having a "box-to-box" striker is brilliant. I'm so proud of Solksjaer, he's still learning on the job.
This is very interesting.
He pointed it out clearly , you have Ronaldo , Bruno and Greenwood who dont backtrack at all.
Leaving Fred ,Mctominay with way too much to do.
As an lfc fan this made a ton of sense as Jota , salah ,firmino all press and track back.
2. Henderson, fabinho and Milner almost never go upfield and usually patrol the mid.
imagine conte comes and made them do 3-4-3 formation 😅😅 would be amazing
Oli should be glued to the wheel!
Ole is actually a good manager.. he invented a new position.. the "Box to box Striker"
Really interesting. Cheers.
Manchester United's '2' in the 4-2-3-1 formation can be mathematically rounded down to zero.
And the 4 can be rounded out to 1, the goalkeeper.
I think ole will probably sack himself if he was asked to understand the tactical blunders shown in this video.
Gotta love the Box to box striker
I can’t believe how funny JJ bull and the rest of the tifo team are. And they all have such different humour.
Can you do a tactical video about Xavi’s al sadd? I am really questioning Laporta’s descision on not sacking Koeman and bringing in Xavi as a coach, I’m sure it will also be interesting for the other watchers
Too late in the season to do that now at such a unstable club as Barcelona.
Ah yes, he dominates a Qatar one team league so he will dominate La Liga.
@@Iksvomid I fully understand your point that the Quatar whatever league isn't a pretigious competition, but it is certainly not a one-team league. From literally 5 seconds of goggling, you will see that it actually has a variety of winners and from simply looking at the number of titles, what Xavi did seems pretty impressive. Now does that mean Xavi is good? I don't know as I don't watch Al Sadd, but I think there are definitely enough reasons, as well as viewers' interest to justify a video about Xavi.
@@HieuNguyen0602 Only one team has 10+ titles in their league. Besides, Xavi is completely inexperienced. Look at what is happening at United with Ole, what happened with Lampard at Chelsea, they didn't know how to handle a big team, you can't just get a coach based on how good he was as a player and hope for the best.
@@Iksvomid High risk high reward, look at Pep for example, did he have any experience? He didn't and he still won us the treble and the sextuple
Man utds starting 11 against Liverpool:
£22.5 mil
£50 mil/ £80 mil/ £30 mil/ £34 mil
£50 mil/ free
Free/ £57 mil/ Free
£25 mil
In that squad you still have pogba varane Sancho and van de beek
Alright, now do the same with Liverpoolˋs. Wonˋt get much cheaper. But I see your point
@@NN-vg1oc Man Utd has spent £75.8 M per season over the last 5 years, second in the prem and has a net spend of £378.9 M. Liverpool has only spent £18.5 M per season with a net spend of £92.4 M, which is absolutely mad, big difference.
@@NN-vg1oc 75 mill, free, 15?, 75, 6, free, 57, 12? (been a while on Hendo), 25, 29, 28...something close to those numbers anyway. Actually those two starting 11 cost fairly similar numbers, toss in the benches though and ManU have flushed a lot more down the drain...
WHAT A VIDEO !!!! HILARIOUS......MADE MY DAY !
"box to box striker!!! you haven't seen it before but you have now"!!! OMFG I died laughing!!!!! JJ rules
The funniest thing about yesterday is that Ole will actually keep his job.😂
Honestly id haveJJ manage United and get the tactics right over Ole who clearly is tactically inept
