Poor poor first half, only bonus is we’re still drawing. Dave already fumbled a 6mph shot, Pogba and Matic either dispossessed or passing loose in our own half, front 3 done next to nothing.

Why does Ole never look pissed? somebody could take a shit on his lap during a game and he'd still be delighted.100% going to feck this up.We're yet to show up it seems...its pretty amazing how bad AWB looks going forward in comparison to how solid he is defensively
I do worry about the space behind the 3 in midfield. Once Leicester get the ball and push it through the lines we look wide open. Need to tighten the spaces between Matic, Pogba and Bruno.Greenwood and Pogba look good today. If only Martial/Rashford/Bruno would turn up.Got to bring ighalo for rashford. Lei are here for taking. Defensively they are weak. We just need to put a man in the middle...Ole is going to bottle this as usual by waiting till too lateWe have to score ASAP otherwise this team is going to wilt. I don’t think they have the mental strength to see out a 0-0.A win would just be such a confidence booster, after all that we have done to give us a chance, it'll be gut wrenching to finish 5th.
Last few minutes was better and I thought we looked good the first 5 minutes or so.
In between that we were fecking awfulLeicester will throw the kitchen sink at us in the second half. Now I'm very nervous.Wolves aren't getting anything so we need a goal to settle ourselves
Would take off Bruno for Fred and push Pogba up, we have a goal in us if he goes further up. I fear that we have a late feck up in us so we need to score to get anything from this game.
We are missing Shaw, but Williams looks to be having a good game.
Rashford should have scored, had a shot saved, Bruno's had a couple of opportunities, Martial had a shot deflected just wide. Nothing clear cut other than the one Rashford miss but Leicester's best effort has been to roll the ball slowly towards De Gea and wait for the feck up.Pogba growing into the game. Had that hairy moment losing possession to vardy in the middle, but we look like the team to score. Leicester are looking to take this late, we need a goal desperatelyThink we're going to bottle this
Agreed, get Ole off the xboxRashford in the last 5 games has played like he isn’t worried about anyone on the bench taking his spot. He’s right. He’s piss average and I’ve said it all year. I counted 6 out of 8 possessions for him in the first 10 minutes were him completely failing a basic skill. He’s not naturally talented folks. He’s just a kid with a ridiculous shot and fast pace. Does he really give any more than James?
Your name with this post made me laugh.Someone tell Williams he is allowed to move forward with the ball and use his left foot now and then. Where did his confidence go?
Rashford needs to get on his toes, second to almost everything.
Hello to the Leicester fans quoting this on their forums in a hour or so.Leicester are very limited but they have success against our very slow midfield. Quite lucky to get away with the shooting chances we have afforded them in tons of space. Utd clearly have the better players,a bit more aggression and urgency needed.
Not surprised they(both teams really) are playing with some nerves.Attacking improved toward the end of the half, but everything positive that’s happened for them has come from lack of composure and focus on our part, which is a huge concern. If this is the manager that will lead us to contending for the league/CL, he needs to do something about it.
I'm not sure that's in Ole's hands. If the difference in energy levels is as big as I think it is we'll get pinned back in the second half regardless of what Ole wants.I feel about 20 years older after watching that 1st half. Gary Neville and Martin Tyler doing my head in had to mute them. I'll be over the moon if this game finishes in a draw but it's very much squeaky bum time!
They've been our most effective bits of play.
It was pretty grim from the whole team until you turned it on tbh
EDIT: don't you dare turn it off
he is so useless in the buildup. he cant trap a ball and he cant pass. Only time he is useful is when we have already progressed in their half and he has space. Just have to hope.Bring on Ighalo and move Martial to the left. Looks like it's not Rashford's day.
Lets be positive my
I will.say it again like I did before the match. He bottled the line up. Time we need to start talking about a new manager.We've neither set up to look solid nor offering much in attack. Another nervy performance with another host of no shows from our star men. We'll need to be a lot better in the 2nd half.I don’t think this squad is great under pressure. Chelsea just getting it done on the pitch like they are in the transfer market.
I think we did. First 30 was the best we’ve had to give.
What? Pogba has created our best two chances
You chose the 8 minutes well.
Playing for a draw in the 2nd half & conceding a late goal due to a DDG error would sum up our season. We’ve been allergic to top 4 all season.Leicester are there for the taking, we just need to improve in the final third. Defo need a goal though we look dodgy as feck at the back. Also missing Shaw badly, Williams and AWB are terrible going forward.- Status
