  • According to Amorin, everyone who played today is ‘giving the maximum every day’, or else a 60 year old coach would be selected ahead of them. So I guess they must just be really shit
     
    I’ll take €40M for Garnacho right here and now, doesn’t matter what the going rate for ‘potential’ is. He’s not good enough and the deficiencies in his game aren’t things that could be fixed with experience.
    The only time we looked like a threat at any point today was when Garnacho had the ball.
     
    Feels as though opponents just need to be well organised, that’s all they need to get a result.

    The game plan for sides coming to Old Trafford seems to be that simple. Be organised and United will never break you down. Be organised and United are bound to give away chances.

    We’ve fallen so far that we rarely see sides come to Old Trafford and do something extraordinary. They keep it simple, keep it tight, work hard at the basics, and invariably come away with a point or three.

    Our home record this season is absolutely abhorrent. We must have lost more games than we've won?
     
    None of the subs have made a difference. Bad game all round. Crystal Palace executed their game plan perfectly. Not sure how Amorim will turn this squad around next season but I'm here for it.

    Whoever is turning up or not turning up in training, he still has to put a first 11 together plus subs, even if they're all shit. The only other option is to forfeit the games.
     
    My iron clad support of Amorim is starting to melt.

    We don't have to win but we should be seeing some progression by now. Instead, we are getting worse.
    Apparently, just 18 real competitive games isnt enough for him to get the tune of the squad. It seems, 8 pre season games would have done the trick instead (according to many here). Its never his fault.
     
    Losing to a team of fecking Matetas once again. It's becoming unbearable. Garbage match, and on top of that a potential career ending injury to Martinez. Grim.

    Yeah but did you see his performance agaisnt FCSB?

    He's Memphis 2.0
     
    Absolute rubbish.

    Really bad subs too. Ugarte for Eriksen was a mistake. Should have been collyer
     
    You look at the size and physicality of some of these Palace lads. We're nowhere close to them physically which would be okay if our players were far superior technincally but half of them struggle to do basic stuff. That is the state of our squad.
     
    Well I missed out on a nice Sunday dinner for this embarrassing display.

    People will say Palace played well but I think they just came across a really poor side.

    So many bad things to say it’s hard to even know where to start.

    Off to the pub to erase this from memory. We consistently look worse game by game. Not sure what this system is good for. We don’t score and we concede a lot.
     
    We did not look like we can score no matter how long we play. Ugarte and Martinez were good. The rest was somewhere between bad and very bad. Yoro had a mare. Zirkzee and Hojlund who? Look at Mateta thats how a physical "tank" looks like.
