Oh come on....we just played St Etienne....some of the players need a rest, Blackburn are second from bottom of the Championship, we have a cup final this coming weekend...sheesh....

A replay is not needed, half time bollocking is needed though.

Ah, the wrestling that is allowed when a ball is running out of play.

I hate that part of the game, defender makes no attempt whatsoever to play the ball, in some cases is a metre or so away from it and the commentators laud it as "great defending".

Peanut Butter · Feb 19, 2017

Why have you lot always got to have a scapegoat when we are not winning? The entire team isn't playing that well whilst Blackburn are playing above themselves.

We will win. Chill.

JeffBoomTetris · Feb 19, 2017

Such a boring half. We need 2 of Zlatan, Pogba and Mata in asap

Good night to all and if Lingard is still on in the 2nd half, good night to United.

Goodnight.

Things that are obvious to me but people here are blind to it-

Rashford is a championship level player right now
Lingard is a championship level player
Carrick slows our play down far too much. He is now playing like rooney played the role
Darmian aint good enough
Smalling needs selling
We only have two good midfielders in Herrera and Pogba

Calm down. I don't think he's been as involved as I like gim to be but you disagree obviously.

I am very calm, thank you.

This team should be comfortably beating Blackburn, it has quite a few first teamers in it.

Lingard has to step up and evolve now. He has reached this point . He did well to get into the team but to stay there he needs to evolve.

Is he a Pokemon?

Bit silly to criticism him for that i feel.

It's not some magical science that Young has been involved from RB...hmm, another former winger turned fullback is having an impact on a Jose side when the advanced right side player, this case Lingard, is pushing inside which I assume is allowing Young to be more involved up the pitch while on the opposite flank, Darmian is more conservative and not going forward as much?

Should get some of the big boys on. Need to avoid a replay.

You forgot your own humility in that list.

At least he makes up for it with his electric pace. Lingard's just like a pissed butterfly having drunk too much nectar.

Indeed, luckily he can bulk up (which he absolutely has to do, getting bullied is a huge flaw in his game right now) and yeah, Lingard's been very poor today.

Red Dreams · Feb 19, 2017

Zlatan, Pogba and Mata to replace Lingard, Carrick and Martial.

Switch Rashford to the left

Have a word with yourself.

Lingard chance

Man-United · Feb 19, 2017

Why have a go at Rashford? He scored our goal.

Hellboy · Feb 19, 2017

Mata/Pogba for Carrick and Mata at HT. Zlatan in later in the game if we're still drawing ...

Rashford's the weakest player we've ever had, I'm sure of it. And goodness me Lingard.

He like 19 years old. Better be skinny than to be overwheight like Rooney or Shaw. Ronaldo was skinny when he arrived but with the gym work he became a horse.

WyoManU · Feb 19, 2017

5 of our 10 outfield players are just not good enough. None of the back 4 and Lingard.

Adisa · Feb 19, 2017

Everything has come down our right.

Rashford should be taken off not Martial.

Weakened side? These players should be doing so much better!

Can see this ending in a draw which is probably the last thing we need.

No point in Lingard staying wide on the right. He can't dribble anyway from the wing. But he should offer more support to Young.

Marvin Emnes is the king

Wait... no white text?!

I only agree with point 4.

ElQuesoGrande · Feb 19, 2017

Think the Lingard chance was quite tricky, but think he's been poor in general

Concerning Lingard's position, he's doing exactly for Young what Mata does for Valencia, to drift centrally and open up the wing for the full-back to roam.

Could someone open a thread on whether FA Cup matches should be held midweek or not?

I'm tired of the FA taking up weekends (which should be for league matches only) with the FA Cup.
