I often have a dream that I have something to eat on my nighttable a snickers for example . I ' m always dissapointed when I remember this the next morning . <| sep |> uGnomegnerd was posted today as well as consolation prizes to runners up . I included a few stocking stuffers for your other kids as well so they won ' t feel too left out <| sep |> Really great post . Now get back to work . Mnkhitaryan is a really strange case . Like I just don ' t get what he must be doing wrong compared to the likes of Lingard . I think sometimes a risk needs to be taken and give them that match experience , and giving them a start in a derby when you ' re not fully fit is not the type of risk i ' m talking about . I hope he impresses tonight and if not has enough game time at the weekend , because he is not gonna go anywhere without game time . If Rooney can ' t drag himself back into form then rightfully he is on the bench . Right now the team up top is actually doing some decent stuff , the end product is just dire . For now Rooney should be able to build confidence in the cup competitions , but for the league unless there ' s injuries we ' ve got a good system right now and having him in it could ruin it . That said , quality sub to have if you want to get a bit more order on things from his influence . Not luck in any way . It ' s not luck that Zlatan has missed about 53 sitters and Pogba has sent about 130 balls into orbit . The quality of the end product is shocking , due to a mixture of complacency or i ' d even argue laziness in Zlatan ' s case . The 3 games you mentioned all had chances that several players completely bottled . The sort of chances you NEED to score . Proper chances and not half chances , yet they never finish them off and we drop points . The lack of composure for the past 3 seasons has been pathetic and it ' s carrying on here too . Not worried about Pogba . He just needs to have a midfield behind and around him that allow him to go forward more . For example Carrick dropping back and Herrera around him and dropping back if needed . Pogba against Arsenal had a case of a Di Maria , where sure every now and again a ball would go wayward but it ' s the fact he ' s making those risks and the majority of the time they pay off that is exciting to see . With better finishes up top these risks will pay off far more . But for now , i ' m content watching him grow . Once behind , we look beaten is the phrase that could probably sum up post Fergie United the best . I think the players still have the belief and desire , they just lack the mentality to remain composed under the pressure . For example against Burnley Rojo shooting from 40 yards or whatever it was instead of passing it and making something happen . Doing stupid shit like that will never get us a win or comeback . Performances depend entirely on context . Liverpool for example many agreed going defensive was the right move , and considering we had a very good chance that Zlatan wasted , on another day we ' d be talking about how the tactic was perfect and got us a win . That said , whilst I understand exactly what Mourinho was doing versus Arsenal , there was no reason to switch so defensively . They were doing fuck all simply because our game plan stopped them from playing properly themselves so then we give them pretty much full control of the ball and they score . If we began soaking up pressure then it makes sense to go that defensive , but why should we change a tactic which is working when they weren ' t changing there ' s ? A part of me thinks Mourinho wants this job so much that he ' s scared to just play the normal game and instead resulting in the ultra defensive stuff to try and guarantee a win that way . It also doesn ' t help that we simply do not have the quality of players right now to do that properly . We need Bailly and Smalling back .
