3 CLs in a row, 1 La Liga and other trophies. Focus on the negative but the positive far outweighs it, no matter how you look at it
By your ridiculous standards, who makes the cut ?That's the end of Martial.
Please come back to me when you've got a sensible answer.
How can Jose be responsible for Baillys performance??It is panic station at the back all the time. Derby County level defending achieved.
It was inevitable. Cue our pitiful crossing effortsSecond game in and we have half an hour to score three goals to keep pace with City. Wow.Bailly wtf
Careful, you'll have Martial FC down your throat any minuteFor the life of me I don’t think I’ve ever seen a United team defend this badly. Bailly is having an absolute horror show. Just abandoning Lindelof, going places he doesn’t need to go and worst of all missing the ball he’s traveled miles out of position to get.We have big problems.60 mins in and we haven't even forced their keeper to make a save. This Brighton team is nothing special eitherI expected much better from Bailly. This is the kind of performance that has to result in being dropped for a long time. Jones or Smalling, doesn’t matter.
Who signed him?If things couldn’t get any worse, fellaini is coming onMourinho's go-to change when things go wrong. Thing is, we're probably more likely to score with Fellaini than with whatever tactic we've been attempting so far.Loving the fight in Shaw
Jose wanted Sanchez. He hasn't been great (yet). What makes you think our new signing wouldn't go down the same way?We're just desperate now. Everything Mourinho is about is reactive. Just like Moyes.Yeah lump it to Fellani.Jose will be gone before Xmas.Stokechester United.Is it any wonder Martial wants to leave? We're 3-1 down and he gets taken off to be replaced by a fecking toilet brushTo be honest...with the shite show this has been I don't mind Fellaini coming on.....he's always a handful for defences, is aggressive and so need a bit of that.Shaw scores one goal then thinks it's worth a half volley from 25 yards3-1 down and Fellaini replaces Martial, I'm no big fan of the Frenchman but it's a bit embarrassing.Unimpressed, not that Sanchez has done better, but I will rather have a player who is trying his best that someone who was given a chance and had nothing to show for it. Maybe the whole team is to blame though I guess.Am I the only who actually saw a conscious effort to play with the ball on the floor? I was very encouraged by this approach. While we haven't created much I liked our simple short passing quite a bit.
Unfortunately we have not been good defensively, so I fear we will regress to hoofing it and defending in our box.61 min
Better from United, they push Brighton back into their box for once and Rashford's header nearly reaches Lukaku but the home side get it away.Only Shaw has some credit from me today. He is trying at leastShaw is trying at least.We're chasing a game...There are 62 minutes gone...We haven't created one chance.
There's no point talking to you apparently, you have a very clear agenda and can't recognize obvious points that prove you wrong. What happened last season is he won a third CL in a row. What's happened with Mourinho the last three fecking years?Shaw looks up for it.
Never been his biggest fan but I love this.I hate that bringing Fellaini actually works so well
Probably our best way of coming back into this.That defense. I think even i could score.
To be fair the toilet brush is about 7 times more likely to score than Martial is given his performance today, one good run in the first few minutes aside.
Ed WoodwardWhat Fellaini change this entire game for us on its head...or more appropriately...on his afro.
Nah i feel the same. Just watch dispassionately.- Status
