Souness

He was so funny there !!

This is nothing more than an end of season friendly , people need to calm down about the performance. The season is all but over , we've just got to go through the motions. This was never going to be a game with intensity .

Surely if Lingard keeps up these performances then there's no way he starts the FA Cup final? He's been in shit form for ages.

Agree he's been off for a while but been played out of position, might rather see Rashford on the left and Sanchez on the right for once!

No he will start. He’s been crap for months but everyone just remembers the purple patch he had. I honestly don’t get it, every attack ends with him and even the passes he completes are either too far in front or behind the recipient.

Lingard needs to feck off.

His fanny football and end product is getting beyond embarassing now.

Yes it's truly embarrassing that he's our second top scorer this season with the second best goals to minutes ratio.

Such a dead game. If this works anyone up then you need to get out more.

AndyMUFC · Apr 29, 2018

It's been a controlled performance. Got a bit of a testimonial feel about it so it's certainly not flashy but the lack of intensity and tempo to the game suits us more than it suits them and we've kept them quiet.

Mancity Liverpool or Tottenham can do that all year and they have nothing to play for, why can't we? and bore us to death?

He worked hard and got himself in to some really promising positions, but the end product was non-existent.

His movement and all round football intelligence is exceptional, he just lacks that technical ability to bring all together.

We have a right side?

There's always acres of space on the right whenever we get the ball to Valencia but he somehow usually manages to do nothing with it.

That is why teams give him acres of space, they know he is no threat.

Being in the minority ALWAYS means you're wrong right? All I see here is a lot of moaning about the game being boring, lacking intensity and about United not linking up well in the final third, not much about being defensive.

We’re defensive in our own manner, and nope it doesn’t equal being right or wrong but you pretty much said I’m the only one watching different game.

That was a fantastic gesture by SAF and our fans for Wenger. Proud of the club.

Peanut Butter · Apr 29, 2018

Can we ban new members from the match day thread please? Lots of these noobs sign up pretending to be Utd fans to simply slag off the club and manager in here.

Sad buggers.

SqueakyWeasel · Apr 29, 2018

What the feck is the problem everyone seems to have on here with Lingard?

GiddyUp · Apr 29, 2018

Everybody needs to relax in here. Some are just looking for a bit of invention in our play and to up the tempo and others are just satisfied with the result. Let's get our noses out of the air on other opinions.

Who do you play instead? Mata was awful against West Brom. Martial and Rashford are better on the left.

I know, blimey you wouldn't think we were leading reading half of the stuff in here.
Solid if unspectacular performance from United.If we attack with some pace we'll get another couple easy.

This team is crying out for 2 proper fullbacks.We'll challenge for the title if we get out summer transfers right.

Been so evident in this game, Valencia and Young doing alright as always (great squad players and servants) but imagine two full backs that can go and attack and defend at pace and not look like they are conserving their energy.

Don’t understand all the negativity in here. It’s been a good controlled performance.

Jut a normal day at the Caf office! Hasn't been the worst half of football this season and we could've/should've been 2 or 3 nil up.

I'm surprised the Liverpool fans weren't calling for Klopp to be sacked yesterday after drawing a blank against Stoke!

Care to make that point?

There is a lack of intensty in the game due to both sets of players treating it as a glorified friendly.

Well who else is saying we're being overly defensive? Like I said ive seen platitudes of complaints about intensity and lack of excitement. Anywho, we should win this comfortably.

We’re not winning 4-0 at half time. Someone needs to be blamed, today the idiots blame Lingard.

12OunceEpilogue · Apr 29, 2018

Lingard's movement is good, as ever, but his balls into Lukaku have been very wayward. He'll be off after an hour or so anyway but he needs to improve his end product. Come on Jesse, you can do better.

Handsome Devil · Apr 29, 2018

I'm actually enjoying match today and I don't have to worry about my blood pressure for once.
Also, we have shown we are a club with class.

What was Souness saying at half time?
Did he take his anger out of Xhaka for letting Pogba score

Yeah mate, it just frustrating knowing we’re definitely capable of much more than we’re showing right now as we have seen quite a few times this season.

Wonder what Sanchez was saying to Pogba there.

SqueakyWeasel · Apr 29, 2018

Even now when I go to Gladbach matches the Xhaka shirt is the one the fans wear most … they idolised that bloke. He really hasn't made it in the PL … I'm sure BMGB will bite their arm off to get him back!

Imagine a RB that could cross in the space that Valencia has been getting. Gary Neville would love this amount of space.

Honestly think both Rashford and martial are better on the right compared to Lingard. But Sanchez can go on the right as he did in the Fa cup semi when Rashford came on. Or go 4312 with Sanchez in the hole and 2 up top.

They wouldn't give that space to somebody who was decent.

Oppo managers can see he is not effective there so let him roam.
