    Error prone low quality half of football. Man United lucky they didn't concede a goal or two from some shocking poor defending. Bruno has to score that gift of chance!

    Big improvement required 2nd half or more points will be dropped against an average Leeds team who's main objective is to injure players...
     
    Frustrating half. We defended well apart from individual brainfarts. But man our midfield is struggling to move the ball forward, we really miss Eriksen. The last thing we need is for Bruno to be rubbish which he is so far.

    WW does nothing and whatever he's giving the team I'm pretty sure any other squad player can do. He needs to come off.
     
    I don’t think these c***s are half as scary as we’re making them look but when you’re trying to attack by making quick decisions and sharp passes, Maguire and Weghorst are complete useless

    Despite all his heroics, still struggle to warm to Bruno.

    Of all our players, he’s probably the easiest to dislike. Constantly whinging at others, dives a lot, makes so many brain dead calls in dangerous positions etc.

    I am soo sick of Dalot and his back passes, every pass is back to Maguire, not a single time, he has attempted to play it forward or try to get away from his player.

    I can not believe I am missing AWB here. He needs to be brought on second half.

    It's like Dalot and AWB have done Face/Off since the World Cup.
     
    We miss McTominay's physicality in midfield.

    They will tire in second half. Garnacho will tear Ailing a new one.

    We got this.
     
    We are killing tempo. Let the ball go faster. Let us play forward. Shaw and rest of defenders are just choking that ball.
     
    Too many placeholders in this team currently. De Gea, Sabitzer, Fred and Weghorst are all extremely weak on the ball and it's telling. Leeds are getting far too much of the ball and we've barely created anything.
     
    Thank god we only have one more game without Casemiro.

    Awful half but this is what happens when you don’t have a midfield, which was a massive reason why we were so shit last year. Missing both Eriksen and Casemiro because neither Fred and Sabitzer will drop deep and get in the ball. They’re both forward thinking press monsters.

    Good job Leeds are shite so far.
     
    It was a half I was expecting, Leeds are chasing anything like a fecking dog after a stick, and we have not got the composure in CM and final 3rd.

    60 mins or before or even at half time Wout is off Rashford through middle, Garnacho on. Bruno great chance. And is there a UTD plater Leeds haven't kicked yet?..

    Bruno also needs to sort himself out

    Yep he's been all over the place, will probably calm down once he gets booked. Terrible shot when he was through on the keeper. Ten Hag needs to remind the players to play football and not to try release their inner Ayling.
     
    There was barely any football in that half, most of it was fouls and the ref grinding the game to a painful halt.

    These Leeds scum seem like their game plan is to actually injure some of our players if the opportunity presents itself.

    Our midfield is terrible so we can't progress up the pitch enough and Weghorst just might be the shitest striker we have. I think I should place a bet on him not scoring again this sesson.
     
    I don’t know why EtH continues to trust WW he seriously brings nothing. Get Rashford up top as he has improved a lot in the box. Garnacho on left and Sancho right and just hit them with some pace and guile. Get Martinez or Lindelof in the middle also.
     
    Looks we’ve gone into slumber mode on the eve of our crunch match with Barcelona, it’s a worry. Really hope we can grind a result out soon because there seems to be a goal drought since the game against Palace at Selhurst Pk.

    How many time did you doubt SAF ?
    Click to expand...

    Very rarely. I once watched him beat Aresnal with Fabio playing centre mid. Very rarely did our teams look this clueless under SAF. We literally look like we don't know how to play football. For a Dutch coach that is embarrassing. Also I simply said its the first time I've doubted him.
     
    So many punchable faces in that Leeds team. Bamford, Ayling, both their Americans ...
     
    If you didn’t know anything about football or these teams/players, and this was the first time you watched a game and your mate told you it was a league one game, the 3rd tier of English football… would you question it?
     
    I guess Maguire is playing to maintain his value somehow. Thing is he seems to do nothing other than play in a way that lowers his value.

    We look like we did under Ole so far.

    What would you expect?

    It's pretty much the same players.

    It was Ole's fault they said, a better manager will get more out of these players.

    A bettter manager came in a dropped most of them straight away.

    As soon as he has to play them again it falls to shit.
     
    That wasn't exactly vintage was it. Noone to control it in midfield and too sloppy in the final third.

    Realitivly solid in defence other than a couple of moments.

    It's got 0-0 or a scrappy 1-0 win for someone written all over it.
     
    Remember the geese said:
    Could Rashford not have thrown himself at the one that trickled past the post?

    I think it's one of those where it ricochets so much, it looks like he could have got there but it was a complete pinball in the box.
     
    Worryingly shit. Still think we can nick a goal but why are we so bad against a team that is absolutely nothing special
     
    Fernandes, wout and Maguire have average to poor, Fernandes will always have his moments but don't think we can be consistent title contenders with him as a first team starter.

    One positive is we are 0-0 whilst being pretty poor all round and ten hag has the chance to change things at the start of the second half

    Luke Ayling is the typical League One player. Dirty too.
     
    Is there a gif about that claim of handball from Bruno after he took a shot? VAR didn't even look so there was probably nothing in it but I'm curious.

    Their best chance and our best chance came from a defensive mistake. It probably sums up this half.
     
    The shitter of two shit teams. As dull as dishwater. No one on this pitch is playing well.
     
    Played into Leeds hand there and let them make the game scrappy, doesn't help having Maguire, De Gea and Fred on at the same time in a game like this as they all have zero composure.

    Hopefully Gnoto stays quiet. Ayling has made both Sancho and Rashford look crap. Weghorst is useless, he was as bad as Ronaldo ever was this season, and unlike Ronaldo doesn't look like he can score out of nothing.

    Second half we need to start playing football and let them do the scrapping.
     
    We were immediately better after Weghorst went off in the week. I'd be surprised if the same doesn't happen again. It's like playing with 10 men.

    The ball is spending a lot of time at the feet of our centre backs, but unfortunately one of them isn't Martinez, who is our only CB who can play forwarded passes with any kind of regularity.
