Surely it's safer to go for a second than sit on this lone goal lead?

Was in joses bottle water or whiskey?
Looked like Panda Cola by the reaction.Yeah, this lot aren't going to be fun to play against away.
They barely had a player in our half most of the game, they'v got several now. Hardly rocket science to see why the game has changed.Zlatan is just not suited when we need effort. He's barely moving and I love the guy.United are at the back foot against Brighton at OT. The next 3 fixture are going to be a nightmare if this is a sign of things to come.
We did in that first Premier League defeat of the season, Stoke away, don't you remember that wonderful 4-3-3?
So his masterplan has worked? We are all convinced now?
Very difficult freak conditions today.
He hasnt got Martial's close control but his awareness of the space is very good and he is very effective with his dribbling. He was handing nutmegs for fun 2 years ago.We're not very good.
he isn't close to match fit. should be saving him for new yearUtter dross.Nothing changed after we scored, really poor performance, hope it ends like that.defending a 1-0 lead against Brighton
We're gonna get a proper twatting in one of the upcoming fixtures.
4th is our level, we'll soon go down in the pecking order as the season progresses.Hate this situation now. Defending 1.0 and waiting for long balls.Whatever happens, this has been a terrible performance all round. Not good enough in any department.Did Matic not get a yellow for that?
They've squeezed up somewhat and are now playing 2 up top. Definitely trying for the equalizer.
There are two ways to sit on an one goal lead. Just maintain possession but don't open yourself up too much and the other one is to concede possession and hope our defenders keep them out. For reason's I don't understand Mourinho prefers the second way.
That argument have feck all to do with todays gameWinning when not playing well. I'd say we're doing ok.This has been dreadful. The manager and players need to take a good hard look at themselves.
He has been better than Martial IMO.Just feck off Henrikh.
They haven't scored yet so we seem to be coping fine at present.How is that not a red card? Scumbag ref.MkhitaryanShould be red ffsHow is that not a red?!!?!?!?!?! HOW?!Mkhi is dog shitMhki fecked that upThe game has been zzzzzzzzz fest, for 88 min or so.Cnut tackleCnut trying to injure Zlatan.Miki is just terrible. I mean really really bad.That's a redWtf - should be red thereFeck off Duffy- Status
