Do we need creativity? Yes. But that's not the reason we're losing tonight. We've undone Burnley's defence on a few occasions, leading to good goalscoring opportunities, and simply haven't put the ball in the back of the net. Burnley get one chance and fecking score.

At least we in the game still folks! Lots of positives! Mountains are there to BE climbed. We Manchester United, we know what we want.
Any other nice meaningless cliches to add, please do.80 fecking millions für Harry Maguire. Must be the biggest joke ever. But hey British core and all that.We should only buy if the price is right. Better if it is on sales.
That's what my mom would say when she shops at the supermarket.
If only we had spent 130m on the defence in the summer.4 clean sheets in 35 league games
It's really hard to keep faith that more signings will solve the other problems in the squad.
Fully deserved imo.
We’ve been patient long enough. About time the crowd let Ole and his stooges on the coaching bench exactly what they thinkWith all the shots Pereira managed, I feel pretty confident Greenwood would’ve done a lot better.
Huh? We had about 3 clear clear chances.we have dominated them. What is ole supposed to do?This isn’t an Ole out post but does anyone else have the feeling off the axe getting ready to be swung if we lose, it just can’t go on..
Yeah. Good tbh.
We showed great character to only be 1 nil down at half time. Good first half from the boys.In the spirit of all the small time United fans on here who celebrate and are proud of the character shown by only losing 2-0 to Liverpool, I think holding out for a draw and gaining a point would be a fantastic result for us. Progress.
The United way.
According to the Ole supporters, we are building towards something and that for the first time since Fergie, they can see the start of something big.
Even if we got relegated, they'll probably say that Ole needed to get us relegated, so that we can come back strong.
That's exactly the kind of thing they were saying in the Liverpool post match thread, after losing 2-0.Put Greenwood central and Martial on the left. Who cares if Greenwood gets bullied a bit centrally, they're so shit that we're bound to get some chances inside their area (as we did in the first half). Worth having an extra body who can actually finish.At least with Moyes there was hopeThe attack and Jones have been utter shite so far. The rest were alright, though De Gea was a bit suspect for the goal.
because our fullback can't cross for shit, Williams always cuts inside or goes back, why the feck do we have a right footed left backBurnley are stacked in the middle, and what do we keep doing? Attacking through the middle
Hold on. I’ve been at Nando’s.
We’re losing
But of course there’s a plan so it’s fine. In Ole we trust
We really need a player like you Adnan.How are we this shit at defending set pieces.By the law of averages, if someone were to do the same task 100 times, the chances are, they’d get it right eventually. Yet every ducking time, Pereira makes the wrong choice. Every. Ducking. Time!
I truly hate this team.We haven't played badly (or well) but feck me can't our coaches sort us out defensively, it's Moyes like back there.We should be 3-0 up here.We’ve seen these toothless displays so many times over the last few years. The lack of creativity is just so bloody obvious and yet nothing is done about it.According to the United app, out of 11 players, Mata, AWB and Williams is our only influencers, the rest of the influencers on the pitch is Burnley players. At home. To Burnley. feck me.
lots of empty seats as it is, which tells a story
We had three good chances playing wide.Burnley are stacked in the middle, and what do we keep doing? Attacking through the middle
Haven't watched the goal when I wrote this. Was just guessing. Turned out my anger should have been on Maguire instead. Sorry Phill. Pereira is awful. How many times has he passed to a Burnley player?
Always thought Maguire was called Slabhead due to his slab like, solid head...little did I know it was because he’s plays without a brain at times.21:05

United 0-1 Burnley
Possession: 69 | 31
Shots: 11 | 3
Corners: 3 | 1
Fouls: 6 | 2Whatever ole tried to do to set up the team is working, wan bissaka has been excellent in attack and should have had a couple of assists. It's terrible finishing from the front three and Harry getting done for the goal.I mean I would act surprised but..It wasn’t great but we should really have been in front. Greenwood to rescue us again?
The sound isn’t on in the pub where I’m at. Any discontent from the crowd towards the Glazers m?
Encouraged, rather than excited, by the fact that we created a tonne of good chances in the first half, only to be let down by our finishing once again. We don't deserve to be losing, you must admit that.
But he is not at fault for the way the current game is going. We only needed to convert one of those chances and we would have routed them.Hope he proves me wrong in the second but I just don’t have faith in Martial to lead the team as a star man.Glad I'm not watching that crap. Far better things to do with my time
agree. Pereira is finding himself in decent areas having done what nobody else does...run around a bit. How is the No10 left so isolated!! His striker is nowhere to be seen. He’s twice (at least) been forced to shoot because there’s zero options. And I’d rather him be taking a chance than turning it back to MaticGarbage! Absolutely clueless in attack, final ball is terrible all the while Ed Woodward’s fecking about over a few million for Fernandes?Watching replay of that goal. Maguire did everything wrong there. Kept him onside but didn't mark him close enough.- Status
