I don’t know where it’s coming from. United have brought their A game

downthewing.com•52 days ago

It's completely unsurprising. I don't know why people didn't think this was going to happen. They had absolutely ZERO to lose. They put it all out on the table.

Gotta stop only looking at previous performances and table position. Look big picture. This is obviously where they were going to show up.

theanfieldanthem.bsky.social•52 days ago

Fair point. But to see such a disjointed performance from most of the team is still shocking. Only players who can hold their heads high are VVD, Gakpo, Salah and Mac Allister

Trent clearly in Madrid in his head - had Bradley not immediately come back from injury I think he’d have been on earlier.

downthewing.com•52 days ago

I don’t think there “clearly” is anything in his head or we would have been seeing this all season.

alipan.bsky.social•52 days ago

I disagree. His defending hasn’t been particularly good since he came back from injury.

ireniicus.bsky.social•52 days ago

I think Bradley would have come on earlier if it was not his first appearance since being injured. M

downthewing.com•52 days ago

Probably correct

jinpa.bsky.social•52 days ago

waay too long
I wanted him off at the 1/2

martinmeany.goosed.ie•52 days ago

This is absolutely the take. I’d love a press question to be “do you have headlines around contracts in your mind when leaving him on”

aidenw.bsky.social•52 days ago

I'd leave him out for a couple of games, give Bradley a run

downthewing.com•52 days ago

Bradley is just back, so I don’t think that’ll happen.

But I think Trent might be sick or something. He just didn’t seem right.

aidenw.bsky.social•52 days ago

You're prob right. Maybe they get half the league cup game each. Happy for you or me to play RB in the FA cup!

downthewing.com•52 days ago

Hahaha if people thought Trent was bad, I’d be abysmal 😂😂

scousenotenglish.bsky.social•52 days ago

He ain't sick, his head is already on the plane. Disgusting performance don't care who ya are if ya fwds n mids are trackin back ahead of him whilst he jogs/walks around tha is unforgivable.

downthewing.com•52 days ago

Okay, well, it still feels unlike him, so that’s why I feel like something was wrong.

scousenotenglish.bsky.social•52 days ago

It is v.v unlike him, he has a bad game maybe 1 in 10/20 every now n then. Today wasn't tha. It was a sheer lack of effort. Bags of talent we all know. No excuse fo whatever tha was today

lfccinti.bsky.social•52 days ago

I think if Bradley had more time in training he comes on earlier. Unfortunately it was a match where Trent had an absolute stinker.

rewerbyor.bsky.social•52 days ago

Yep, Trent should have been off at half time. Everyone is allowed a stinker (and, wow…that performance stunk) but he should have been brought off, he looked jaded. It’s irrelevant now but if Bradley replaced him at h/t we win that game. As it turned out we were very lucky to get a point!

parishlfc.bsky.social•52 days ago

Yeah definitely agree with that

dsl1968.bsky.social•52 days ago

Yep, 80 minutes too late.

downthewing.com•52 days ago

I'm honestly surprised he didn't take him out earlier, especially as the game progressed into the second half and there was no more given.

mansivc7.bsky.social•52 days ago

Think all these talks and questions about Trent played into it? When he said he will play definitely for us, I feel he felt that taking him out too early will mean something more than just putting in fresh legs

bornagaingamer.bsky.social•52 days ago

Robertson not having a great night either

downthewing.com•52 days ago

Robbo's night hasn't been nearly as pitiful. But he definitely wasn't in top shape.
