    Leading 3 times, 3 draws, this is dreadful. SJR & particularly SDB are fecking spoofers of the highest order. They are the reason for this. The wanker SDB is supposed to be in charge of the team, tonight says everything about his leg shaving methods. Gobshite. Feck off and take some of these wankers with you.
     
    So I've just rewound and times just under 3 mins to get Antony off. That deffo didn't get added on
     
    Thought we were poor. A chance to build some momentum after winning at the weekend and I don’t think the selection did us any favours.

    It seemed like the midfield would pick itself and yet we saw something completely different and failed to really have any control.
     
    Even if we had an extra half hour we wouldn’t have scored. Don’t even know how we scored the first goal.

    How did we not score when Dalot (I think) squared it? Basically a 3-on-1. You can’t miss those kinds of chances while goals are so hard to come by.
     
    Another two hours of my life wasted.
    I know exactly how you feel pal, if this dross continues, fans will start to get restless and ETH is close to being heckled at old Trafford, something we’ve never done but this drab boring football us the worst the club has played in i55 years?
     
    We're a one trick pony in giving it to Garnacho and hoping for the best when searching for a goal.

    Zirkzee looks a waste of money, Antony levels of bad for the majority of the game.

    Another game we should've got beat but individual heroics saved us, this time from Onana and Ugarte.
     
    I wonder if Pogba and Lingard will join the boys with a wee dance in the dressing room after that performance. Maybe pose for some pictures on Insta and Tik Tok.
     
    Man of the match?
    The Ref.
    Had a good game and didn’t buy any crap.
    None of the players from either side should get it.
    Maybe Onana for the double save?
     
    I feel really sorry for any Utd fan under the age of 23. I'm glad I've checked out and lived my life in those days that will never come again in your life time.

    Good night and god bless!
     
    This is officially the level we belong at. We've become such an average team, no better or worse than Fenerbahce, who coincidentally have two cast offs in their midfield.

    We probably played better under McGuinness and O’Farrell. Genuinely the worst football we’ve played since George V was king.

    Honestly, the maddest situation ever not to score.

    I didn't think it would get any worse than LvG, I don't look forward to our games anymore and I generally hate watching us.

    I think I would take their two cast offs instead of our starting midfield. ETH is looking for the payoff so in that case I would take a working manager ie Jose.
    I think you are wrong. They are shite but above us cos at least they work
     
    You’d think that the ping pong nature of our matches makes for entertaining viewing, but somehow I find myself constantly sighing, wether we’re in attack or defence… how can we be so bad at both, and also have no midfield?
     
    Well, that was not pretty. Fly back to Stanstead tomorrow to spend some prep time for West Ham to avoid extra travel. Fixture list not helping.
     
    Every single bastard match, as soon as the whistle blows, I find myself saying “Just feck off Ten Hag”.

    Dear god, make it end. Soon
     
    I actually think that’s about how good we are these days under this manager. On par with fenerbache, a team of Premier League has beens playing in a poor league.
     
    Rangers have doubled the points. Spurs treble our points.
    Especially after last season CL performance, he finished 8th in the PL, last in an easy CL group and is currently 12th in the PL and 21st in Europa League, it’s baffling this muppet is still here.

    If we keep this Muppet to Xmas, the season will be over, Knocked out of carabo by Leicester, probably 24-27 points maximum from 19 PL games with a minus 8 goal difference and 7 points from 6 games in Europa League.

    He simply must be removed asap, we’ve now played 13 games including Community Shield, we’ve won 4 games including a 7-0 win against a league 1 side Take that result out and we’ve won 3 games from 12 in all competitions, that’s a 25% win rate, for a man united manager that’s an instant sack.

    The fact we are barely scoring 1 goal a game and look like conceding 2 every game, he must be removed from this club asap so we can salvage the season while there is still a potential 40-50 games to play.
     
    We are not a British club anymore, only Rashford is British, the rest of the starting 11 are not British, what do they know about Man United, what do they know about Munich, Bobby Charlton, Best, law, Robson, Cantona?

    We need to change our culture and start looking for a strong young British spine that are playing in the EPL, we spent £40m on Zirkzee but Morgan Roger’s is twice the place Zirkzee will ever be?

    The club is falling massively and needs to become far more ambitious in the transfer market, this club needs to go buy 3 or 4 top young English players like ; Jared Branthwaite, Adam Wharton, Tyler Dibbling, Morgan Roger’s, we need to change from continental mercenaries to a British core, United has never had teams that have one British player starting, it’s wrong and it’s killing our club?

    It’s nothing to do with not having a British spine.

    It’s everything to do with having a clueless manager who is tactically inept and who has confused and who is ruining the confidence of quality players.

    I find this such a weird take.

    Why do you need to be British to be aware of the history of the club and how much passion it has about it’s own lore?

    Players like Cantona, Evra and Keane have huge passion for the club and recognise its history and they’re not British…

    Feels a bit Brexity.

    Even City and Arsenal have a British core that understand the club they are playing for, do you really believe Sir Alex would have so many players that were not tested in the EPL before he recruited them, he made a few mistakes with Bebe and others but generally he chose British men that understood what it meant to play for this club.

    We are currently a bunch of misfit continental players that don’t gel, because they just want to pick up their wages, go home and Play FIFA on PlayStation and then moan to their agent because they are not getting enough minutes.

    They want to be social media stars when most of them won’t have more than five or six games with ratings over 7 in any match, the coach is deluded beyond reality and the club is showing themselves to be full of so called ‘Best in Class’ chiefs but none of them have the ability to make a decision to sack the coach who currently has a 30% win rate this season and 10% in his last two years of European football.
     
    Yet people constantly made excuses for why he wasn't playing much last spring.

    Seems obvious ETH hates him. If he's not even going to keep developing the youngsters he's genuinely a fecking pointless manager because god knows the results and performances are terrible.
    And he blocked him going out on loan too I believe.

    I think it's downright disgusting to claim our players don't give a shite simply because of their passport. That's some xenophobic nonsense. Such a shame we let go of those British mentality monsters like Sancho and Lingard....

    Roy Keane is from the British isles, he’s not from Great Britain no but Southern Irish is also considered from the British isles, it’s nothing to do with Brexit FC, it’s to do with culture, the British, Irish and Scandinavian players are used to the weather, the climate, the banter, the Irish especially have a huge affinity with Manchester United as do a lot of Scandinavians, they will walk through walls for the right manager, a lot of players who are the current manager’s favourites are more likely to defend our inept coach than actually step up for another coach who is tactically superior to ETH.

    Players like Jaap Stam, RVN, Evra, Vidic, Cantona were the best of the best in Europe, they were not Antony, Zirkzee, Malacia, and Weghorst!

    I’m starting to feel that supporting United under ETH is like being part of a cult that you know is wrong on every level but you keep turning up for his completely dysfunctional meetings hoping that it was really just a bad dream!

    Absolutely this
     
    the British, Irish and Scandinavian players
    Ok, so let's have a look at the players you mention
    Players like Jaap Stam, RVN, Evra, Vidic, Cantona were the best of the best in Europe, they were not Antony, Zirkzee, Malacia, and Weghorst!
    Literally not a single one of them was British, Irish or Scandinavian :lol:
     
    Hopefully Yoro will buck the trend and know what a Yorkshire pudding is and that he grew up on a tv diet of “Bullseye” and “Saint and Greavsie”.

    Both those players never played in a united side that had a 10% win rate in Europe and currently have a 30% wining rate 4 wins from 13 games this season.

    Lingard scored an Fa Cup Winner, Sancho played in a CL final when he left this squad mainly because the coach has the man management skills of Ant, he’ll be far more successful at Chelsea who have a solid English core of L Colwil, R James, C Palmer, K dewsbury Hall, Noni Madweuke,
    T Aderbioyou, C Chukwemeka that’s 8 players qualified to play for England and 3 or 4 start every game, United currently without Shaw, Maguire, Mainoo have just Rashford, we need to have a British recruitment drive and not because I’m xenophobic but because the club has always been successful in previous incarnations based on a very strong British and Irish Core, our most successful periods in the 50’s and 60’s plus 90’s and Naughties were based on a strong British core with elite European players like
    J Stam, RVN, E Cantona, P Evra, Ronaldo, RVP, C Teves, D Yorke.

    Right now we have very few experienced British players and a whole bunch of mediocre European players. You can’t expect to be the coach of Man United, with a win percentage of 30% after the first 13 games of a new season after finishing 8th the previous season and being bottom of a CL group.

    Time To Go!

    PS Prime Lingard under Jose and Ole would walk into this team, that’s how bad we currently are?
