Every fecking long hoof is eating away at my soulFellaini has been our best player. And yet people call him toilet brush because he looks awkward. The others can do one.Fellaini has been our best player
Because we have no wingers on the pitch and two wholly inadequate fullbacks.
Nobody can cross. Not a single player.
It's just Fred and Pogba and the defence hoofing it to Fellaini and it's only a testament to his grit that we're even having any possession in their half at all.Please get rid of the virusSo casual just like pre season.going to be a very long season.We aren't winning anything worth a damn this season. The league is between City and Liverpool and Champions League, you're having a laugh. May as well write this season off.

Loads of deadwood etc. etc.
Perhaps some of these "deadwood" are only so because the manager can't get them performing.
We could be managed via a series of Facebook polls and I doubt you'd see much of a difference.
He is crap with his snail like decision making and cat like relexes to get him most of the time out of the crapper.
Not really. We are all mouth and no substance now.
The reason why they are like that is because clearly they have no structure in our play. Absolutely no game plan. So players take longer on the ball, make mistakes etcFellaini is feckin useless. Did he even touch the ball yet?Honestly one of the worst performances I’ve ever seen. Absolutely nothing to be positive about. It’s like they’ve never played together before. £130M on our two midfielders and they are dog Shit.
Better players, playing worse. Go figure.
Feel I've been MUGA'd off watching this.Brighton chanting: "Your city is blue, your city is blue. Just like Brighton, your city is blue"
Most of Brighton's team looks like plasterersThat was heartbreaking.How many will Liverpool beat these feckers by next week?
Yep he’s actually been alright today, hardly wasted a ball compared to the others.
They're simply not scared to play against us now. Look at Huddersfield v City, completely frightened to get out of their own box.
Let be honest, it doesn’t say much about our defence if we are debating who is better out of Bailly and Lindelof
Not seeing a legitimate United game for months makes you forget watching this week in week out and you suddenly get excited to see United play again.
Pre-Season is always whatever, never take anything from it. Incredible teams have had shocking pre-seasons, shit teams have had incredible pre-seasons - they mean nothing so I don't take anything indicative from them.
Alas here we are two games in.
No one's even had a passable or average game. Everyone has been somewhere between shit and utter shit.
Exactly. No point in making any conclusions already.
Good. Surely this Apathy fella can't do a worse job than Moyes, LvG and Mou.
And fittingly, ours look plastered.
And N'Golo too.As i said at the start of the season, I can see Mou resigning and there being protrspr against the owners this season. It's clear that Mou isn't doing well. But he's the least of our problems. Young and Shaw are actually worse than Brighton players. As is Mata. We needed investment and now we're going backwards .Fellaini looks like the only player who knows his role, which suggests a lot about the current coaching setup. We know Plan B, but not Plan A.Its only now I realise after supporting United for 30years is just how much we’ve lost our identity and character so much since SAF left.
Not one player on that pitch today other than maybe Shaw are putting in the required effort what you would associate with a Manchester United player.
Sad times ahead!After 2 years - I still have no clue what kind of football Mourinho is playing. And what is worse, clearly the players dont understand eitherBarely made any clear cut chances all game, Brighton don’t even have to work hard to keep us quiet.
Or is it that some people can actually watch and understand football slightly better than the usual '''manager out' brigade??89 min
Substitution for Brighton & Hove Albion
Kayal for Gross. you are on a roll today. Thanks a lotDisheartening to see your rivals improve year after year while you're stuck watching this rubbish.
Mate, he's played 2 games ...89 min
Last minute of normal time. It's not going to happen is it. There hasn't been a sniff of a comeback in this second-half.- Status
