This is where our season collapses isn't it ...

How Soon Is Now

Lol could tell he was ****e in pre season and he's still ****e.

bangkok

crap against liverpool, crap against benfica, crap again today.

AidoEirE

Herrera always looking for a foul, looks so soft and can we not cross a fkin ball or what

Minderbinder

I think we’ll win this yet.

How Soon Is Now

Could done with those 3 points last weekend in game we weren't interested in playing in ffs.

5 behind city if stays like this.

Thepoet85

If anything, this last few weeks shows how much we miss Pogba.

Have nothing to offer going forward at the moment.

Quandary

A 2nd yellow for Martial would be the icing on the sh1t cake.

J. Marston

€35 fúcking million for him. He wasn't even needed! Bailly, Smalling, Blind, Jones and then if you're forced you go into the youth at that stage.

One of Mourinho's worst ever signings.

ElChe32

Think we'll see Rashford at half time. Mata having a nightmare

Adamocovic

Absolutley awful first half. Gifting Huddersfield this.

Losing Jones is big but still can't excuse the shocking mistakes and lack of creativity out there.

Quandary

This has been our worst half of football so far this season. So many players underperforming,individual errors, conceding possession easily, sloppy passing - it's been shocking.

JaMarcusHustle

Lindelof in danger of becoming this generation's Taibi/Prunier/Djemba-Djemba/Bebe etc.

wanderer100

Valencia and Bailly are our only world class defenders .

Wouldn't mind seeing any others given the boot

Valencia isnt near world class and Bailly may get there but not yet.

No way is Valencia world class, would you stop!

Bailly is good but not world class either when you compare him to the world's best.

Did I miss anyone?

Mata
Mkhi
Martial
Rashford
Lukaku
Pogba

Now I have compared... yeah I disagree. Not much in it at all"


we are miles apart

RobbingBandit

Jose gone down the tunnel to put old yeller out of his misery. How does he fix this mess.

Quandary

Massive 45 mins needed to turn that abhorrent showing around.

Ok I might take back Bailly on that comment but I do personally think Valencia is up there .

Agree to disagree. I couldn't give a s*it right now. Ever since that Pool game, we have been a shambles

Jayop

Joke stuff. We've been awful.

Also that linesman on the nearside shouldn't be allowed another game. Should have had a pen for the foul on Herrera too.

Jesus Christ, you go to some lengths

sky88

Aside from the defensive mistakes the attackers have just offered nothing today

Rayne Wooney

To be fair Lingard, Mata, Martial just aren’t good enough. Our only option off the bench is an 18 year old or a brutal Mkhitaryan.

The cracks are appearing fast

TheDoc

This needs to be a victory, cannot be dropping points here.

Attack has looked so disjointed, Pogba injury the longer it goes on could cost this team a shot at the title. There is nothing being generated from midfield to attack off.

Lindeloff with another stinker. Surely Blind should be coming on as reserve CB until such time Lindeloff proves himself in cup games. Big test of this guys character to turn this wretched start at the club around

Feeling the officiating has been very poor as well.

How Soon Is Now

We haven't been playing great for last couple games especially last two. We got away with it both times so only natural if continued someone catch us out.

Poxy Huddersfield though ffs.

kona

Need to start going long into lukaku here, midfield is useless.

Are we still banging on about this?

What makes you think those 3 points were a given had we just gone for it given we are struggling to get a point at Huddersfield.

Maybe we're just not that good.

We didn't even bother our hole to attack benfica was the same we got lucky there.

It's not good enough sitting back against these teams it's ****ing crazy and ya have to blame mourinho in some way cause he's known for doing it.

We don't have a 3rd midfielder and our 10s are either out of form or not good enough so persisting with this set up is killing us. Two up top against teams like this is needed until Pogba gets back.

RobbingBandit

Really missing Fellaini a monster presence in the midfield needed for scrappy matches like this Mata muscled off the ball for first goal Iceman melting for the second, Lukaku everywhere and nowhere on the pitch too, he needs to keep his position hopefully the wind with us this half now will guide one if the off target shots into the roof of the net.

bangkok

get rashford on a go 2 up top ffs. giving teams way to much respect. should never have held the players back against liverpool. knock on effect is clear for all to see

adox

Wow glad I'm not able to see this. Sounds like we are brutal out there.

How Soon Is Now

Lindelof can piss off he's done absolutely nothing not one thing positive since he joined club.

I know player needs to settle in but there's been not one sign of him being able for this level.

Better off taking him back off bring on someone with experience who won't ****ing choke again.

wanderer100

That team out there looks no where near a team worthy of winning the title.

We need Pogba, Bailly, Fellaini, Jones, maybe even Rojo & Ibra all back to toughen this squad up. We're being bulldozed here and it's bloody hard to watch

secman

Truth is ,we still have a lot of ordinary players in the squad. We are not as strong a squad as city.
What did Mourinho ever see in Lindalof,

Another cup season I'd wager

PhlegmyMoses

Right choice from Jose.

Quandary

Given the way we have played recently I just cannot see us getting anything out of this game.

Hococop

Again fellaini and pogba need to come back soon

Obviously it is good enough as he's won a shedload of leagues and cups doing it.

Hiring a manager that's know for it and then complaining about it is pointless.

As much as I was disappointed in how he setup against liverpool also it's how he is.

Today has nothing to do with Jose.

Cantona's Collars

Mata and Martial off. No harm,they offered nothing offensively.

Exactly there's been total lack of trying to play attacking football last few games. It's clearly a tactical thing cause we looked different before even without Pogba.

HONKEY TONK

Fuck it

I put €20 on United to win 4-2 at 20/1

Sometimes just need to go out and play. The money put into the squad if we can't go out and try beat these teams where not even gonna come close this year.

It works with a team that is perfectly together and set up where nothing likr that yet.

We have the players to go out and give these teams a game and you should be well able beat why not go for it?

He doesn't need to play this way with the likes of Benfica and Huddersfield never mind Liverpool.
