In hindsight LvG and Mou werent as moronic as some of us might have assumed. Them playing to cover for the weaknesses of the team had some merit, rather than pretending like we've got a better group of players. I'd take dull now.

It IS dull.

Happy to see AWB back.

Off in a minute or two. Second yellow

Don't mind losing this since it means one less pointless competition to play in. Rather just focus on the PL top4 even though it's near impossible with our idiot players.

Think we're in serious danger of finishing outside the top 10 mate.

Would be nice if we looked at least a bit more dangerous this half.

Banana Republic · Nov 1, 2023

So, instead of bolstering the midfield and taking Hannibal off as a precaution, ETH has taken Casemiro off instead.
Has he any clue that this weak midfield, with an isolated CDM, is a recipe for failure.

You could argue we're resting 75% of our team as well though. Martinez, Varane, Shaw, Wan Bissaka, Eriksen, Bruno, Rashford, and Hojlund are all probably in our best 11. That's just under 75%.

We'll cling to that. Although 2 of them are injured, and Wan Bissaka is first game back.

mitchmouse · Nov 1, 2023

commentator says we have to score the next goal... we can barely score any goal

saik · Nov 1, 2023

Yep, AWB and Amrabat gonna help us win this game. Believe!

It’s amazing how confident Willock was to make such a stupid tackle. Assumed the ref would let them get away with it again

Will be interesting to see whether Martial can be bothered to pull off a single sprint this half

You already know the answer.

After the McTom / Eriksen combo v City, nothing can ever look as open again.

No sure how the heck Hannibal has stayed on.

Is ETH the issue or is the structure of the club systematically the issue?

He is responsible for the football at show. He is the manager. He bought a lot of that crap out there

Ignominious humiliation, the very worst kind.

It may be even better, but I thought it better to understate, if anything.

It's the lack of subs. This barely shakes things up

X2 defensively minded subs at 0-2 down, the modern day United!

AWB is good news - if he really is 100% fit. But in a game, where we need 2 goals, I am a little surprised.

Well if we leave Dalot on we are going to need at least 4 goals so there is that.

Fergies Gum · Nov 1, 2023

Was that a member of our coaching staff there who was laughing his head off?

Nope, he repeats the same mistake over and over.

I just thought to myself - this is the worst United team I’ve seen in the post Fergie era.

Moyes - we at least had some of the players we had fond memories of - Rooney, Rio etc. it was 100% the manager that was the issue.

LVG - galacticos! Di Maria, Falcao, the Schmidfield! It wasn’t pretty but it had its highlights and the FA Cup win.

Mourinho - the most successful post Fergie! Pogba, Zlatan Sanchez at the piano….

Ole - 5 months of utter brilliance. Paris, we’re back! Finished second. Sancho, Ronaldo back, Varane from Madrid!

The first season from Ten Hag was the most promising I’ve seen since I think Mourinho’s second season but wow this year……I look at who’s here and honestly there’s not a single player, other than maybe Rasmus Hojland as an “up and coming talent” that would get in the team of most of our competition. I’m also including our two “stars” Rashford and Bruno based on what they’re currently doing. It’s disgraceful.

Attack wise we’ve never had such little firepower. Even Liverpool under Kenny had a better attack. Need to somehow scrape some more 2-1s then but in Jan. won’t happen though.

Member 123428 · Nov 1, 2023

Martial’s touch was decent for the first 15 mins but now can barely control it

Crimson King · Nov 1, 2023

How has it gotten so bad? Even with the injuries, the drop off has been insane.

Not so sure despite Gary Neville's agenda on him he hasn't put a foot wrong since his second tackle

King Eric 7 · Nov 1, 2023

Bright start to the second half

He wasn't considered shit at Ajax was he? Or last season? Now the players have got sick of him and decided they dont like him they are throwing him under the bus like they have every other manager. I'm not saying he's blameless, there are things he could have done/be doing better but this is largely on the players imo.

He was shit for large parts of last season but people didn’t want to hear it. We were only good up until beating Barcelona then we’ve progressively got worse. Whatever happened at Ajax involved him having no involvement in transfers. Maybe they wouldn’t be throwing him under the bus if he wasn’t setting them up to fail every game, you think 20 players can all collectively regress to be as bad as Luton in the space of 6 months?

cj_sparky · Nov 1, 2023

Better start

Matt851 · Nov 1, 2023

How hard is it for eth to work out the midfield setup is all wrong and has been the whole season. He sometimes changes the personnel but never the setup
