    This is the most boring game I've watched all season

    What about Aston Villa at home, or City at home, or Stoke away or Crystal Palace away or West Brom away or Southampton at home...?

    We've had one or two entertaining games all season.

    Those who aren't good enough for the first XI: Rooney, Memphis, Lingard, Carrick, Rojo, Valencia and, reluctantly, Mata.

    The only players who are definitely good enough: De Gea, Martial, Blind and Smalling.

    The rest I'd be willing to give another year.

    i stil think rooney has something to offer, otherwise with you. ALso Carrick is worth one more yewar to come off the bench

    We are not even trying are we? Well at least I hope that is the reason. We cannot be that shit at football.

    Single striker up front who's past it, average/poor attackers in Lingard and Memphis, a slow midfield in Mata, Herrera and Carrick and full backs that can't attack. We ARE that shit.
     


    I wouldn't get your hopes up for the second half.
     
    I know the players have been poor but you can't have this many players playing so poorly and not blame the manager

    When I see these players and how pathetic they are it makes me less angry if we don't finish top 4. When you have players like memphis, rojo and linagrd among many other shite, we should be grateful we are 5th. I'm just gonna officially take a step back now. There is no reason to ruin my whole week over these lot.

    I think we all need to do that, watching United is such an easy way to ruin your day and to find yourself in an angry and frustrated mode.

    When you consider we got rid of Nani and replaced with this shite it beggars belief.

    Then the manager comes out and states he has done the best with what is available not even considering he got rid of what was available.

    I'd take Rooney or Carrick off for Januzaj, put Memphis up front and play Lingard and Adnan on the wings and Mata in the hole.

    Rooney is doing a Yaya Tourist impersonation up there. Either make him run around in midfield or park is arse on the bench.

    If we take Carrick off we'd need Schneiderlin
     
    What is it that people see with Carrick?

    This calming influence that dominates the midfield from all the back on the edge of his own penalty box?

    He's a fecking limited footballer that can only play to his best when we are on top of other teams. His lack of movement and mobilty is as bad as Rooney. His passing abilities doesn't make up for it. I hate him.
     
    A horror first half, but one has to wonder whether the heat has something to do with the lack of energy on display by both sides. When you feel the mid 70s for the first time after 8 months it can feel like the mid 90s.
     
    We are shite! We are shite! We are shite! And they want Mourinho to wait another year while we put up with this crap??? :eek:

    The sad but unbelievable part is that van Gaal actually thinks he's doing ok??

    THIS.
    It's still 0-0 you fecking morons. You have the ball, just run with it at goal and try to score! Attack, ffs, instead of being cowards and passing it around in your half, waiting for the whistle to blow so that you can take a 15 minute break before coming back and passing it around again.

    Nobody wants to take the responsibility to start the attacks, and the only man who can do that is up front and isolated.

    This so much. I don't see any sense of responsibility from any of these players. None of them seem to understand what it means to wear the United shirt, and the blame for that should rest on the shoulders of the manager, but also the senior players. The lack of urgency and desire is sickening.

    Yes.. I suppose that's why Norwich have opened us up like a can of sardines at every opportunity. Saved only by the shiteness of Jerome.

    Based on today, I would ship out everyone on the pitch barring DDG. The players are a joke led by a fecking clown.

    I never create threads on here, but actually feel like going on a massive rant. We are absolutely pathetic, I'd feck most of these players out like you would a hostile drunk out of a pub if I was manager.
     
    No Martial, no party... and no Rashford to work the spaces in the final third.

    Two players who were given the task to circulate the ball in the attacking half and draw opponents, Lingard and Memphis, don't give a rat's arse about the movement around them but always try to find a good angle for a shot or a final pass...

    Two midfielders, Carrick and Herrera, who are instructed to play forward passes towards the two most light minimum weight players in the league, Rooney and Mata, while the opponent plays with 10 men behind the ball...

    It hasn't worked for two seasons and it probably never will. Glad we're not behind yet in this one.
     
    Van Gaal would have loved that.

    Loads of possession and control. Norwich didn't have a shot after the 5th minute, he'll be rubbing his hands in glee.
     
    We have failed to score in the first half of 20 of our 36 games this season.
