Pogba as well, Carrick as well. The options we have a dwindling with every game. I am as annoyed as anyone with how we are playing. I think they thought it would be relatively simple, as they do not score goals, we have gifted them two and are now not thinking straight. They have rattled us.Everytime Mason refs our games there are some shocking decisions. Stonewall pen, freekick against Lingard despite him getting pushed three times then 20 mins later exactly the same thing but in our favour...except its a drop ball wtf?
For me it's Mata off and Rashford on in the second, Mata just hasn't been at the races at all today. With Rashford on there is enough there for us.
Lindeloff is absolutely terrible, has looked shakey in every single game he's played for us.
Still doesn't absolve him of blame.
He picks the team ultimately and after that wonderful "speech" claiming a heroic point at anfield like we won the PL i'm not surprised at the state of the team. Players have now been too complacent and taking things for granted.
There are times where praises are due and last week wasn't one of them.
No way are we winning this. Hudders will shut up shop now and be twice as hard to break down.Shameful and clueless performance against one (maybe the) weakest sides in the league with two horrendous individual mistakes costing us.
Even De Gea can't save as many clear chances as the amount of sh** our players have been producing for weeks. We were very lucky having him saving our a**** week in week out since Pogba got injured - however today we pay for our declining form.
Matic and Herrera has to be the worst midfield two in the entire league. Since we are forced to play this we don't have any control, no ideas playing forward - just nothing!
I'm out simply can't watch a squad expensive like this acting like they play their first ever match of football. Congrats to Huddersfield!Have some sympathy for United here. Horrible conditions, team niggling away, ref having a shocker and three away games in a week.
But we've still got a load of ruibbish in the squad. Lingard isn't good enough for an elite club and you could say the same for Smalling, Mata and Young (although the latter hasn't had a bad game in fairness). Herrera's way off form and Martial showed why Mourinho prefers Rashford for the big games - his off-the-ball runs are poor.
Reckon the only change we can really make is Rashford for Lingard. It isn't Mkhi's kind of game and he'll probably be as ineffective as Mata's been.
Whatever about the defensive mistakes, this sums us up since the IN break.Also how was the Herrera foul not a PK? Anywhere else on the field that's a foul.
I normally always say with centre halves give them time. But he’s utter crap and he’s not going to get any faster.
Or football eitherHard to believe we were scoring bags of goals just a few weeks ago. Doubt we'll even get one back in the 2nd half.Lindelof vs Kane next week guys
Just to clarify I don't mean at half time.
It'll be maybe one right now (Mata), then the other later on. It's possible Lingard plays the 90 and Martial comes off due to the booking, but he shouldn't have too much defending to do in the second half if we get our act together a bit more. Points dropped here will be a big blow.
theres this thing called injuries but still we should be beating the likes of these.
Bailly will be ok.
Bailly may be back.
We miss him, but still the football we play is terrible today.
Had hoped we would step up a bit today, but no very poor again away from home.
It is really something we need to improve very soon if we want to stay and fight for the title. Look like City may run away with it sadly
.This 2nd half will tell us a lot about this current crop.
But I’m not holding my breath, we’ve looked poor since the international break.
I am not sure that was all about Jose.
What has that rubbish play by guys who are supposed to be professional footballers got to do with the manager in that half? Pogba out, Fellaini out, he puts in the boys on the bench and they play rubbish. Mata can't control a simple ball in the midfield. Goal. Lindelof can't clear an aerial ball. Goal.
The boys need to be slapped. Absolutely pathetic display.
Because Ashley young is playing lb.Glad us lot aren't in the London Stadium, we would either be having a group hug or a punch up.
Why it has to be LindelofClattenburg saying its not a penalty because Herrera moved the ball away from the penalty area, and because he moved the ball away it was an accidental impact from the defender.
Clattenburg can do one, honestly he can go back to the middle east and really, really do one.
what makes you think he will start ?I don't understand we are losing 2 Nil yet we play like its nil - nil.
No pace in our passing - to many touches on the ball.
The results in recent games have been papering over cracks. At the beginning of the season we were rotating and everything was fine. You could see this coming for a while.this was coming.We'll win this.
We just need to calm down and play football.
They have got to go in themselves a bit and stop caving in and making easy mistakes. It's disappointing.
Did jose give the ball away at centre circle? Lindelof chickened out in the instance mata lost the ball and went back rather than going for the ball and making a challenge. Second was another feck up. The only thing jose did wrong was buy lindelof, but i am sure he dint injure jones and for the time he was on, we looked solid.
yep just ignore the first line of my post, great stuff.Mechanical directionless passing.
There is no clue of what we are trying to achieve.
Must dribble the ball in the box and sheild it. They'll concede a penalty.
Under Fergie yes, under Jose nope.Have to go all out in the second half. Get Rashford on and ditch the defence.Have to agree..this has been comingWe look like headless chicken out there. Martial having a horrendous half and Lindelof is not a defender at all.Seriously, I can never see us competing with the best with Mata in the team. The guy is just weak.
Basically conceded the goal he should have last week vs Liverpool. He got lucky on the rebound vs Liverpool no such luck today as it had to run out some point.We have a massive gap between our midfield and attack. It's by far our biggest problem and it's why we aren't creating anything.
If we fix it we might have a chance today but it's unlikely now.Have to blame Mata. If he had controlled the ball, it could be totally different.- Status
