Since our wide play is basically gone, and no one is playing in their natural position, and we lose physical battles.
Time for something narrower, more on the ball controlling, no slow points to stand up defenders, just pass and move.
Can we see something radical Maresca?
Today is the end of Donnarumma as the starting GK.
Guehi and Gvardiol as the left side.
Nunes and Doku who are living on myth alone.
Cherki playing deep.
And worst of the lot Enzo Fernandez the football bandit, no more.
Or we've lost the season. Maresca it's in your hands.
Nunes watching as Delap stoles past him and smashes past Donna.
If we lose the ball we concede, so why bother with a back 4, we made 2 Defensive subs at the half... Marsellca that's on you, we still poor at the back.
Doku, Cherki, Enzo and Ndiaye all wasteful in possession...
How does Enzo stay on the pitch he does nothing.
Doku's 2nd touch is by a Forest player.
Cherki should never play deep.
I blocked one of Ndiaye crosses from my couch.
Left side of defense is a joke.
Total Shambles.
O'Reilly, Foden, Kovacic, Bouaddi, Rulli needed at the half.
City's weakness used to be counter attacks.
Now it's;
Shots at Donnarummer.
Corners.
Crosses.
VAR.
Any team that work and run to press.
Wasting our own chances.
Any team with any physicality.
Long throws.
Our own passing errors.
Donnarumma.
Guehi.
And still counter attacks.
Forests best player is our defense.
We couldn't stop a 5 year old on a breakaway.
Guehi, Gvardiol, never again.
Donna cannot start again.
Enzo, never ever again.
Cherki cannot give the ball away fast enough.
Title race over by November this season, we are a lightweight mess.
Guehi with a poor pass option into Gvardiol, who dordles and loses the ball to a stiff breeze, and then Guehi decides to let the CB compose himself dribble at the GK and slot a shot away instead of maybe... closing him down.
Guehi has had time, and been found wanting too often.
Ugly win, Napoli and Lens wins required next.
Maresca.
Time for Rulli to get games, & stop playing 3+ lightweight light workers behind Haaland.
Play Bouaddi, Anderson, 2 of the creators ahead of them (NOT Enzo) and one winger.
Then 3CBs and an attacking FB opposite the winger.
Well played VAR today.
3 handballs and a foul, plus an obvious backpass penalty ignored.
Can't beat us in court so beat us at Stockley Park, 4 mins not 12 this week as well.
Wasted opportunities again. Enzo and Doku both hopeless, Bouaddi taken off for no reason, poor finish.
An offside goal against, a yellow cars for winning the ball, Kovacic saves the ref further blushes for the penalty we were not getting for the defenders save.
Academy & B team minutes, pens scored.
On we go, big sides out already, looking healthy for another Carabao Cup run.
Maresca.
Bouaddi plays the end.
Reiss is ready.
Guehi is out of sorts.
Foden is back.
Cherki can finish teams off or be a late spark, too much lightweightness and flair when the game is not over.
A GK who can pass makes a difference.
Please adjust for the game this weekend.
Back to back High Energy Brighton will tell us alot this season.
Win both, we turn a corner stablide the lineup and progress.
Lose both we show our fatal weakness to all, and they will be watching.
Mixed and the negatives will be remembered more than the positives.
Big Test
Next time out it's time for a different feeling.
Ball playing FBs, more control in midfield with them folding in.
Luxury players and academy from the bench, use 5 subs to make the most for he squad and fresh energy all game.
Take the mistake arista out of the light for a bit.
Maresca.
Stop playing Enzo because you overpaid for him. Get use out of O'Reilly, Bouaddi, dare i say it Kovacic.
Eventually Anderson and Haaland need to not play 90mins every game.
Foden is better than Cherki, and in form use him.
Drop Donnarumma or stop him playing ball.
63% ball, countless chances, too wasteful as ever, first loss but it was avoidable.
Enzo, Cherki, Doku is too lightweight in the middle, bigger more hardworking body needed.
Donnarumma is a mess with the ball, if Trafford had stayed he'd be #1 before now.
Guehi too error prone
Please can the UTD board give Carrick more time, therival dunking entertainment has never been so good.
Signed,
Everyone
5 goals, Foden back with a statement. Lewis output, Anderson goal, academy time creativity high just what we needed.
Lower stadium attendance for a presumed autowin, with stars rested, with the price of football and expectations to go deep in all comps, not a big issue tonight.
Wasted chances left a door open again, but we cannot allow games to be close enough for VAR to interfere any more.
Cheap pen and then 12 mins, is the league trying to stop us on the pitch now, extra uncessary time and Haaland injured from it.
7/7 is a hell of a start.

Team needed the wake up call, but chances created and not taken Vs taken chances. Could have been 5-5 today.
Either way, we need a proper RB, Nunes isn't it and Khusanov hasn't adapted well enough take the slot.
But Cherki, Doku & Semenyo is too many passengers vs good opponent
