Genuine question

How is a forward supposed to function in our team due to our playing style?

Our plan is to sit back and hit on the break. Which has suited Marcus and he has the figures to show how good he has been with that style.

Apart from that we hardly put anything in to the box. We keep ball in the opposition's half and pass it back and forth till we lose it and put mf can't cope with the break.

Antony cuts in and shoots, Marcus runs and runs and runs and shoots or losses it.

Bruno can play a brilliant ball from our half but shoots at every opportunity when in the opposition's.

Even case and Fred and Sabitzer will take a shot.

No one passes to a striker. Martial makes runs initially then disappears. Weggy is always trying to make a rum but nada.

So it's a case of are our strikers chit so no one passes, or no one passes so our strikers are chit?

Even Greenwood had to make his own goals. Where's kane like for Son and vice versa, all of city look for haaland etc

I'd prefer Weggy to be tending bar attempting to make a rum than attempting to play football tbf

West Ham have lost their last 3. Watch them play like 70’s Brazil tonight.

We need Rashford to step up tonight.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

We need the others to step up. This isn't Rashford FC. There's no excuse for the others. They are international footballers playing at one of the biggest clubs in the world.

Nowhere to hide. They have to start delivering.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I agree however this is not me having a go at Rashford but goals are his main offering. Antony and Bruno offer other things. Weghorst isn’t good enough.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Antony doesn't offer anything really. He's been a huge disappointment so far and a big reason we don't score a lot of goals as he doesn't make anything happen for the striker. His final ball has been an absolute joke all season.

We need him to start living up to the hype and quickly though. If he flops then this could end by being ETH's Maguire. You can't spend that amount of money on one player and get nothing back.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I wouldn’t say he offers nothing but he does need to improve his play in the final 3rd. If he still hasn’t improved this time next year it will be a big worry.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

What does he offer?

Genuinely don't think we'd have been any worse off had Pellestri been given a run of games. Even when he's frozen out and gets the off cameo he makes things happen. He actually got an assist before Antony did too despite hardly ever playing for us which says it all.

Antony is no Mason Greenwood that's for sure. We haven't upgraded with him.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Balance, work rate, decent ball retention when he uses his brain.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Being incredibly kind there to him. He's an 84m winger. He's meant to score and make goals and get us off our seats.

He needs to massively improve.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
100%. Been wasteful in front of goal in recent weeks.

Process is singling out Rashford because he has the highest chance of performing, not to have a go at him.

Picking Sancho for example would just be a waste of time.

They had a nice day off against City

Can we put two good performances in today? One in each half?

We dont seem to do that in any game. We often fall apart in the second half.

------------------------------------------

What about our other attackers?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
They’ve shown they aren’t capable of scoring consistently. Rashford has.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Fack me. Really?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Yes. Antony doesn’t have a great strike rate. Neither does Bruno from play.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Well maybe they are the ones that need to step up? Take some of the burden of Rashford?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
But they offer things Rashford doesn’t. I’d say Bruno and Antony while not being brilliant have been better than Rashford in the last month or so.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

And Rashford offers things thay they don't. That doesn't alter the fact they have both been pretty terrible in front of goal this season. And wasteful in possession. But lets ignore that and heap more pressure on the on the one attacking player that has produced most consistently this season.

I'm not sure if we'll have the legs tbh. My hope is that with a week off after this, there will be no thoughts of conserving energy and we may perform for a little longer.

Wolves at Home will be the first time we've had a week to prepare for a game since October 21st. 😂

I genuinely can't despite this being a long running joke. It's been a grueling season to follow as a fan let alone a player.

Just hope it ends with at minimum CL football and an FA cup trophy would be the cherry on top.

Process is singling out Rashford because he has the highest chance of performing, not to have a go at him.

Picking Sancho for example would just be a waste of time.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Makes sense. You don’t hear Spurs fans hoping Lucas Moura steps up do you?
----------------------------------------------------------------------

I'm sure you don't hear them hoping their most productive player steps up either compared to others.

They may well do if their most productive player hasn’t been that productive for a while.

That's the exact reason you need those that haven't really produced all season to step up.

Maybe but Bruno has produced lately in terms of chance creation, Antony works hard and has had a few good games lately. Rashford has offered very little compared to a couple of months ago.
