We have played more games than anyone in Europe this season and have at least 12 games to go in the next 6 weeks or so, what the feck is that guy on about?

I think putting it here was the best choice - kind of shows that beyond the results and game on the pitch, how much we have done work behind the scenes this season, compared to the mess we were under previous managerial teams for a while and how all backroom messages were basically hinted towards us being behind the modern football clubs.

That's really good to hear/read as there's been so much talk of us being left behind, as you said. Carrington still needs a revamp but this is quite positive, and coming straight from a player it has more value.

That’s class. Especially after hearing so much shit from players about their arrival to United in past years.

I find it weird how much hate ETH is getting from fans of other teams. He pretty much just gets on with the job and the only thing he’s been outspoken about is the fixtures. Any excuse to hate on United.

Our fans tend to be quite obnoxious when it comes to the manager. A bit like Arsenal fans are to whatever young player they have coming through.

It was the same with Ole, but only that time the joke was on us so they loved him.

Don't we have a club chef ? make him some food and give it to him to take home so he doesn't need to do it himself.

People argued about how 2-0 was so dangerous to take out your key players to rest them/whatever etc.

Then, this happened.

Those subs on the 60th minute killed any chance of a third goal. He's been crap lately, let's be honest. We seem to have a bottling nature about us under him.

Brutal in game decisions today. 1/4 final of EL and in 60th minute you sub your first attacking line with Elanga-Wout-Pellistri.

If someone says Ten Hag is at fault for Martinez injury, that should be ban worthy ffs.

Did not rest our main players in January and February, and as a result, we are missing too many players now.

A complete and utter idiot for subbing off Bruno at 60 mins. He's fecking suspended for the second leg, keep him on and kill them on counter ffs.

I still can’t grasp that triple sub though. Bruno is suspended for next leg so why not keep him on at least?

And there’s never reason to bring Weghorst on. He’s more of a hindrance than anything else.

He’s still got some absolute shite to work with, paper thin quality outside the regular 11. Give him the cash, he will cook up something potent.

His subs were terrible. Samcho I agree as hes just hopeless but As soon as bruno goes off our intensity dies.

He's Partly to blame for this result.

He needed more and better players in the winter. The season will take its toll in April and May, as predicted. He's done great so far, just get us CL now, any way possible

Criticised for not resting players, criticised for subbing players when 2-0 up.

There's talk of a clear out in the summer I hope top of that list is Antony, complete waste of time not created a single assist all season and just 1 goal since Christmas, you know that every time he gets the ball it will come to nothing.

Not the game to trust your stupid squad players. You don’t trust the likes of Maguire Elanga Wout

Not a fan of these triple substitutions. I said as much when he made them.

He's fecked up today. Can understand bringing off Martial but no reason to bring off Sancho, Bruno so early on. 2-0 with 30 mins to go against a team that was slowly creeping back in the game. On him today.

Made subs tonight for subs sake. Elanga and Weghorst aren’t anywhere near the standard required and weakened us massively when they come on. Really poor game management.

very poor subs today.

Particular why sub of Bruno? He had a yellow, but I thought he played well in the first half.

I understand with Martial due to fitness and Sancho due to not playing well.Antony could have stayed on too.
