    Ronaldo looked PISSED walking off for the half-time

    What would I not give to be a fly on the wall in the team room right now
     
    What a weird half.

    In control for most of the match, with at least three one on one chances which have to be goals, yet they score 2 incredibly easy goals and we have a mountain to climb in the second half.
     
    If we persist in not putting pressure on the ball carrier, even far into our own half, bad things will continue to happen.
     
    We're losing 2-0 but actually had few great chances. I guess it's only fair, we never deserved to beat Villarreal but did.

    Are the players downing tools? Ronaldo looked angry after the second goal but otherwise I’m getting skeptical

    They aren't intentionally downing tools like we saw under Moyes and Mourinho, but they have lost belief in Ole's process and their collective confidence is shot.
     
    People mad at Bruno?!
    He’s put two chances on a plate from nothings ffs!
    Sounds pretty toxic at OT.
     
    As poor and as disjointed United was they could or should be level, very wasteful with the scoring opportunities from Fred, Rashford especially.
     
    Atalanta aren’t even playing well :lol: Their defence is as bad as ours but we aren’t missing a whole back line.

    Maguire and Shaw are having awful seasons post Euros. Horrible.
     
    What a strange first half.

    Three absolutely glorious chances wasted,

    Two chances for Atalanta, two goals.

    Need to take the chances quickly in the second half, Atalanta are definitely there for the taking.
    Not over by a long shot this game.
     
    Played a lot better than Saturday but that back 5 is always liable to a cockup.

    At least without Pogba we look like we're playing with eleven men rather than ten and a half.

    If we were as clinical as Atlanta we’d be up 4-2 here

    It's crazy. They've had two good chances and taken both. Bruno has created 3 great chances on his own. All missed. Utter s-t..

    This is the most abject and saddest displays I've ever seen from us tbh. It's worse than anything I remember under Moyes.

    It's really bad but we should still be drawing if not winning with the gilt-edged chances we've missed. It goes to show this Atalanta team isn't great shakes and we are truly stinking the place out.
     
    WTF is actually wrong with Ole?? We are 2-0 down at half time and he is walking into the tunnel clapping?!?

    Does he have mental problems?
     
    I turned on from 36mins and we should have had 2 . Fred well say no more , Rashford looks on it. Bruno I'd take off been awful . Well I think. Olly got 45 mins to get these guys to save his job even for a bit. Bruce just left I'd have him .
     
    Most of our players have been decent oddly enough, except for McTominay. Our players don't know how to press, or how to defend in the box or how to create big chances.
     
    The laughable thing is right now we might not even qualify for the Europa League by finishing third
     
    We’re such a confidence side. If we’re 2-0 up both those chances go in. If we get one back I think we’ll do them 3-2. Such a weird team.
     
    Ronaldo keeps trying to play these cute little passes but because we don’t practise any attacking drills in training, players aren’t making runs. Do they just play headers and volleys and cuppies in training?

    Pundits and fans were saying he was the next CB in the league for the second half of last season.

    Aye, I wasn't. Never taken to him ( but I'm not being 'I was right'). He always look positionally suspect to me and the jokes about him being unable to turn aren't plucked out of arses. Maybe Greece affected him, but I wasn't thrilled before then, either.
