Brighton & Hove Albion 3:2 Manchester United

sugar_kane · Aug 19, 2018

Starting Pereira and Fred in centre midfield was a big risk, considering how unfamiliar both are with the premier league.

Putting Bailly / Lindelof behind them flanked by Young and Shaw in retrospect looks like auicide.

People's thoughts on Martial?

Had a pretty good run in opening minutes, haven't got any service ever since.

Do we have a buyback option on Blind. Can we bring him back and just have he and Smalling as our CB’s

He's simply miles better than Lindelof.

Mister_Stubbs · Aug 19, 2018

Conceding 3 goals in the first half against this fecking Brighton team is nothing short of embarrassing. I blame the players as much as I do Jose. This place is going to become more and more toxic as the season goes on.

Bruno Marques · Aug 19, 2018

3 Bailly errors

Looks like Mourinho got a point, the center backs are poor under pressure.

So he's making them play it out of the back every single time? What a fecking genius. Can we give him a payrise and an 20 year contract?

RonaldoVII · Aug 19, 2018

So Bailly lasts 1 game before Smalling is back to being our best defender.

What’s the point? Looks at the shit defenders I made you buy?

hobbers · Aug 19, 2018

I have always been critical of Smalling and Jones, because they're both fairly shit and certainly not good enough to be part of a title winning side..

But this is proving once and for all that the £70m wasted on Bailly and Lindelof was just that, wasted. Hopefully never see the pair on the pitch again. Utter brainless garbage the pair of them.

LeftyBlaster · Aug 19, 2018

To all the folks who think buying more players is the answer to our problems. Go throw yourself in a well of common sense to get a dose of it. It’s obvious that our lack of progressive coaching is the problem.

Billy Blaggs · Aug 19, 2018

feck off !

VeevaVee · Aug 19, 2018

Not much to like about this lot.

Well, we lost to the same team last season with pretty much the same players. Maybe they aren't better than this? Maybe replacing a bunch of this sorry lot is exactly what we need to do to beat Brighton? I'm not suggesting that one £100m player would solve this, but maybe three-four £50m ones.

So you think replacing these bunch of expensive players with another bunch of expensive players is the key to beat Brighton?

Camy89 · Aug 19, 2018

-throws arms up-

Laughably shite.

Raw · Aug 19, 2018

Our defence is full of bellends.

But apparently we had a really good defensive record last season because De Gea saved shit loads of shots.

Irrational. · Aug 19, 2018

Brighton will never play this well for the rest of the season. Wankers.

space · Aug 19, 2018

feck Woodward, feck Young, feck Jose

iam_kramer · Aug 19, 2018

Joke of a half this. Really poor all over. Deservedly goals down.

Reiver · Aug 19, 2018

Can't believe I'm asking this against Brighton but what's the most number of goals we've conceded in a match whilst Mourinho's been in charge?

the hea · Aug 19, 2018

If I was the manager I´d take both Lindelöf and Bailley off at half time. Even Mata would make a better CB than any of these two clowns.

kiristao · Aug 19, 2018

For all of Mourinho's ability to supposed set up teams to be nice and compact, we are really poor defensively

Parry Gallister · Aug 19, 2018

So we're being over-run both in midfield and the right, and our cbs aren't doing great. Half needs to end asap.

Organic Potatoes · Aug 19, 2018

The closeup of some guy rubbing his thigh helps at least.

I disagree. He hasn't played well today but has been very good previously.

DRM · Aug 19, 2018

feck this, I'm not watching this anymore.

I hope shitdeloff and rashailly never play for us again. Why the feck dont we start with Smalling??

Shambolic team. Get ready for more city and now Liverpool dominance.

Mourinho needs to go. Get Zidane in

Owners not investing in the team. I can see significant protests this season. This is exactly what we predicted. How could the board not see this?

This is not just about transfers.

These weak ass servers can't handle the strain.

We are so bad :lol:

Three goals to Brighton in one half.

For someone that has more of a point to prove to the manager right now that anyone else out there....yes.

We're shit. Still think we'll get top four but we'll finish well behind City and Liverpool.

Of course we can blame him for showing zero effort.

There’s 9 players out there showing zero effort. Who’s fault is that

Huge, huge, huge investments needed for that team to compete again in the near future.

feck off Martial

feck off Utd

DevilRed · Aug 19, 2018

This is ridiculous. How bloody poor is Lindelof. Bailly obviously no better.

Young and Shaw were poor. Midfield not protecting them.

For me, Victor Lindelof is fast becoming a disappointment. The first and third goals are definately his fault, if not fully. Just the positioning and his reaction to let players run into the box.

Saying that, Mourinho is the one laughing. He was the one who said he wanted a new CB

We are playing the ones he bought. What makes you think another one would help?

Todd · Aug 19, 2018

We are a calamity

48 hours · Aug 19, 2018

Well the players are looking at receiving 2s and 3s for this performance so far. That will teach the bottling feckers

groovyalbert · Aug 19, 2018

This is going to be fecking miserable season.
