Watched the game on Man U tv, and they worked hard, but there was a big difference in skill and experience. We played 4-5-1 and in the 1st half and other than Thompson up front, didn't have much of an impact, but he caused a few problems to a really talented Man Utd defence.
In the 2nd half Latimer supported Thompson more and had one great strike which was well saved, but 4-0 was a fair reflection. Under great pressure thought our central defense did really well despite a couple of errors, Nardiello looked good at right back, Kudi did well in the 2nd half in a holding midfield role, and Thompson impressed the commentators throughout.
Did think we looked overawed in the 1st half, and played far too deep at first, but the level of Europeam talent in the Man Utd side, with players from all over Europe and beyond, it was always going to be tough.
