United defenders 'chasing shadows & clueless in transition'

United defenders 'chasing shadows & clueless in transition'

United fans, we asked for your views on Saturday's 3-0 defeat to Falkirk.

Here's what some of you had to say:

Garry: I feel for the guy but we need to take the goalkeeper out of the team and give Dave Richards a shot. He is not filling anyone with confidence and I'm pretty sure that defence is not helping his confidence levels either.

Jim: Unfathomable that the manager should be using the same tactics employed against Hearts at Tynecastle, against Falkirk at Tannadice! Too much worrying about our opponents rather than have them worry about us. Furthermore, the defence has been leaking goals all season - coaching obviously isn't making any difference, so why hasn't there been changes to the personnel? Our young Scottish player, Sam Cleall-Harding, must get his chance alongside Ross Graham.

Scott: Poor all over from United, players and management. Yevhen Kucherenko must be dropped now, costing us too many points. As much as United were a shambles, Falkirk and their supporters were absolutely brilliant from start to finish. A credit to the league.

Niall: United's back three were awful. Out of position, chasing shadows and clueless in the transition. Ivan Dolcek needs to re-prove himself. He made far too many poor passes in midfield and was deservedly pulled.

Jamie: The Jim Goodwin out sentiment is building. He doesn't know how to set out a team unless it's against a squad who are superior to us and will dominate the ball. Has no clue how to take the game to teams without being exposed at the back on the counter. Superb from Falkirk, nine Scots in their starting team unless I'm mistaken. Very impressive.

Shaun: Goodwin talks a good game but I think he's a certain level of manager because any proper manager, at home, with some of the players we have would attack against teams like Falkirk, Kilmarnock and Livingston, yet they all coming to Tannadice and totally outplaying us. Really worried for us now because we are really bad.
