I don't agree it's exactly how France played him, not entirely.

That's why I said similar. He's being asked to play too deep IMO. At Juve he had more disciplined players around him which allowed him to push forward far more and influence the attack.

How Soon Is Now

Improved so far anyway hopefully we make the most of it.

50 quid says Rooney ****s up this free kick

Rossi IRL

why isnt the ref punishing the Watford players for blocking the quick free kicks from being taken.

They have done it atleast 5 times now

Because he is weak

Rossi IRL

Once again Fellaini playing very well

Thepoet85

Fu k off

Rossi IRL

That is poor poor defending

Adamocovic

Was a good goal but my god what a rough week it has been

Chris_Bradley

Out of the blue goal but well taken.

How Soon Is Now

Ah ffs!

Rossi IRL

Jaysus what sort of formation are we playing now.

adox

It's utterly shambolic.

Manutd_4life

This is really bad!!

super_furry

Tell you what, Wayne Rooney is absolutely finished as a player. He'll be an MLS player this time next year.

How Soon Is Now

When was last time Jose lost 3 games in a row?

Headshot

I just dont understand how Rooney still makes it to the first team. He doesnt even get subbed today

Its just crazy crazy stuff

rightyabe

Northampton in with a chance in the cup midweek...Milton Keynes part 2..

Chris_Bradley

Jose can't say anything about this.

Dreadful stuff all round.

sReq | uTeK

Pogba completely at fault for that goal. Sitting there pointing and not taking the runner

adox

Ha. Luke Shaw off!!

This is getting more bizzare.

The team and the manager deserve to lose this game(obviously I hope they don't)

Nope he will still be playing as our captain unfortunately.

His Porto days I heard said earlier.

Chris_Bradley

This isn't Rooney's fault - it's a collective from the team and manager.

Rayne Wooney

Rooney must have a ridiculous clause that guarantees him 90% of games

It's the only conclusion I can come up with

sky88

The hate for Rooney in here is really masking that the whole team is playing crap. Zlatan and pogba have been as bad as Rooney today.

Jose has a lot to sort out and his decisions in the last 2 matches has been terrible

You'll have a certain person in here telling us all how well he played and did his job to perfection.

Decuc500

As bad a performance as I knew was going to happen after the last two games. There just seems to be a weak mentality in the club now.

Just said it there on BT not since being at Porto.

Absolutely. He'll get blamed anyway though.

Or he is good friends with the English media so if he is dropped will have the media ridicule the manager

Cypher_sounds

Memphis was the last person i wanted to see coming on.

Bastian will be resurrected, i can sense it!!

Last season.

Send him off ref, its the only hope for is that he wont play.

J. Marston

Another season of praying for, and probably failing, to get top 4 beckons.

Lord TSC

Rooney and Zlatan had extremely poor games. Smalling has poor too, imo, this game and the last. Fellaini was ok. Shaw was ok. But overall, theres a lack of passion from a lot of players.

EDIT: Posted that too quick as Fel gives away a last second penalty....

Thepoet85

Bahaha. Where's the whiskey

Chris_Bradley

Time for a Vodka

deaddonkey15

An utter sh*tshow from Bailly there.

I think that's a bit pessimistic:)

Adamocovic

When Rooney does eventually get phased out of the team it will be interesting to see who some of the fans aim their anger or disappointment at.

Agree Rooney has been poor and surprised that he is still on the pitch but my word what a poor performance it has been by the whole team. Brutal stuff.

Absolutely boggling the turn that has happened since city. What an awful week it has been. Need to sort it out quick.

sReq | uTeK

Rooney sole input all game has been to argue with the ref.

FutureGuy

Yep. Keep defending Rooney. Yep. He is brilliant.

Superb close passing. Superb awareness of who is around him.

Killer balls.

In 5 years, if it's revealed that Rooney had a contract cause that meant he plays when he is fit, it would surprise me not a bit.

Schweinstiger must be laughing.

That's all I can do.

sjb25

Aw time to get drunk......

Mars Bar

This was just rubbish from top to bottom.

Sand

Should be a fun bus ride home.

Manutd_4life

Well done Watford

Poor team performance? Well it's not as if he is the captain or anything. Right?

Chris_Bradley

"Rooney only plays as a striker"

This loss lays at the feet of the manager.
