What a shite half.

Shark · Oct 28, 2015

Pretty shit half of football from us. Martial will probably save us.

Ludens the Red · Oct 28, 2015

Most predictable shit performance of the season.

FreakyJim · Oct 28, 2015

This is Simpsons football. We've achieved it.

Rossi19 · Oct 28, 2015

Terrible first half, Memphis is having another mare.

UnitedinRed · Oct 28, 2015

Sky are regretting their decision to show the scouse match I bet. Missed out on the Boro fans showing us they have uodtated their phones so the flashlights in the drop down menu now.

Highlight of the first half.

Jazz · Oct 28, 2015

That was a nice move towards the end there... should really be winning here honestly. Let's put this to bed in the 2nd half for fecks sakes.

JinnerJamie · Oct 28, 2015

Nothing short of shit.

Sylar · Oct 28, 2015

IMO, Pereira and Lingard been the brightest players.

Its tooo slow from the rest, no tempo, too many touches, running straight into defenders when not needed, and letting the opposition get into defensive organisation.

Our best two chances came from quick passing down the middle.

Even though I'm watching this illegal stream for nothing .... I want my money back

Well... that was certainly a half.

Absolutely, of football no less.

"Middlesborough have been able to carve out the better half. Manchester United have not created a great deal. They've had all of the ball but not created a great deal with it."

Hed Zitin · Oct 28, 2015

Like having sex with a floppy cock. Dreary.

Bring on Young to beat a man and Martial to create and do something please.

Fellaini's touch is bang on the money today. Get the ball into him early.

Kag · Oct 28, 2015

Carrick and Fellaini are having a fecking laugh, right?

Jokers, the pair of them. They've completely abandoned the centre halves and left it to a 20 year old to try and control the game.

People will whine on about Memphis, understandably so, but when two of your most experienced pros are putting in performances like tonight then I know who I'll be pointing the finger at first. Pathetic, both of them.

3KDré · Oct 28, 2015

Pereira and Lingard have been our best I think. But seriously, how can we not create more than 2 good chances against a Championship side? There's always so much space in the middle that no one can be arsed to exploit. What's the point of having so much feking possession and not even moving around the use the ball in dangerous areas?

Worst half I've seen this season. We are shockingly bad.

Did you watch the arsenal game?

Mutter Merkel · Oct 28, 2015

Good:
Blind,
Fellaini

Average:
Romero,
Smalling,

Everyone else has been rubbish. No creativity whatsoever. Plenty of passing and absolutely no final product from our forwards. None of these is United quality, sorry.

Devil may care · Oct 28, 2015

That was tumescent stuff, was really hoping one of the 4 up top would step up but so far they've not done much of anything.

Godfather · Oct 28, 2015

Not only one of the worst halves of football I've seen from US this season, but in general. And I've watched a lot of Austrian football so that says a lot. What tripe...

LuisNaniencia · Oct 28, 2015

We should be sponsored by Nightol.

Trizy · Oct 28, 2015

Memphis is shite.. after all the hype I let myself believe

YouOnlyLiveTwice · Oct 28, 2015

Do i see a bit of Thiago in Pereira?

Very tidy player.

And people will still claim that it's all on the players and nothing to do with Van Gaal...

Its sort of a combination of the two. He's given them a chance, he will now sell 9 of them as nobody is taking it.

That means a riot in the crowd in the second half?

Would be more interesting than the match. (As long as no one gets hurt)

Mystry · Oct 28, 2015

God we can be so boring.

Crumpsall Red · Oct 28, 2015

Pereira, Smalling, Blind, Lnigard have been OK, the rest shit ..... and as for Memphis, he's the most brainless footballer I think I've ever seen

The United Irishman · Oct 28, 2015

No one can excuse that performance from Memphis..Absolutely shite

Di Maria's angel · Oct 28, 2015

Really enjoyable tactical battle by these two giants.

ChaddyP · Oct 28, 2015

Pereira's first touch has been great but his final pass has been lacking. Memphis... Sigh.... Lingard has been safe, Wilson needs better service. Fellaini looks ok. Darmian showing me how good valencias first touch actually is. Blind and Rojo been decent, Carrick aswel

Sylar · Oct 28, 2015

Leroy The Red said:
Yeah but hes really really bad, like really bad

I know, I honestly think we did damage too him. It reminds me of Januzaj, came in with confidence, then played him too much, then dropped off (I think we relied on him so much early parts that when he was exhausted, it sapped his confidence).

kouroux · Oct 28, 2015

The Stain said:
Yeah. It's up to him to show that, though. I wasn't expecting fireworks from day one but at least track back to try and intercept the ball, press your man in attack and don't pass it back all the time. Just play simple football. When you do that you gain the confidence necessary to try harder things. He just tries the hard things all the time then sulks when it doesn't pan out. When he understands these things i'm sure we'll see a different Memphis.

Edit: Let's be happy that Pereira and Lingard are looking good!

That's something so basic that every footballer who hasn't been given a special license to do feck all defensively, should always perform at a decent level. I can understand being low in form and confidence but having minimal effort in defensive duties cannot be explained.

wilson is miles off the first team. Even Rooney would be better

He's had a number of fast passes that he's controlled. His passing isn't terrible. Some of the hopeful long passes meant for him are a joke. If Rooney was chasing them, they'd be hysterical.

No, he's not been as bad as Rooney. And this is collectively a pretty diabolical team performance so far.

Shady · Oct 28, 2015

Who has been our best player? Tough to pick, so poor. Maybe Lingard, but he could have been sent off.

You're having a laugh, leaving out Pereira and Lingard who are looking to create something?

An Irish Red · Oct 28, 2015

If we could settle this tie with a coin toss I'd be all for it.
