Surely, you can see how easy United’s midfield is bypassed?

Yes, that has nothing to do with the goal after 11 seconds OR Phil Jones OG … surely YOU can see that?

JPRouve · Jan 31, 2018

I have to defend Matic honor. Lads, the rest of the team is as shit as he is.

Please don't pick up a red before the half.

We'd still be playing Martial on the right in that set-up, which is pointless.

The main change we need to make is to get Martial back on the left.

Martial on the right has still been our best player here

Redlyn · Jan 31, 2018

By passing our midfield. Need Fellaini imo.

How to fix it; Sanchez central, Martial back to left and Lingard out right.

Lingard off.

Can Jose set up a team to play well against decent opposition?

He pretty much picked the team we all wanted. Not his fault all the players chose today to shit the bed.

Minimalist · Jan 31, 2018

Becoming pretty common fare under Mourinho these clashes. Could have Messi in the team, wouldn't matter - performances in big games are almost always wank.

Really disappointing. Doesn't bother me Spurs scored - the manner they did does and the fact we don't look like scoring despite having some chances.

Freak · Jan 31, 2018

Absolutely no midfield whatsoever

conceding a goal after 11 seconds changes everything

We have more than the necessary talent available to turn this around.

crossy1686 · Jan 31, 2018

Half time: Martial off - Herrera on please.

Crustanoid · Jan 31, 2018

Total gutless, disinterested, overpaid, cowardly, idiots

VP89 · Jan 31, 2018

The entire team is shit today.

IrishRedDevil · Jan 31, 2018

Wrong formation. Should be 3 in midfield. Great that a lot of people got 11/11 in the stupid formation game but the formation is wrong!

Martial should not be shifted to the right as he is half the player out there. Pissed of that he has been shunted out there the first time him and Sanchez start.

Oscie · Jan 31, 2018

Valencia and Young, can look good at times. Very good at times. Sword of Damocles that always hovers over them is that regardless of how capable they are, neither are specialists in their own positions. Late adoptees/make-shift/make-do full backs and the risk is always they'll be exposed when up against a decent opposition.

How the feck are we losing all the physical battles? Every single one.

I'm wondering the same. We're a team full of supposedly big and strong players, yet we get bullied.

BringNaniBack · Jan 31, 2018

Is Jose going to do the obvious thing and put Martial back on the left?

littlepeasoup · Jan 31, 2018

This has been utter dross. It’s unfortunate how anonymous Pogba has been.

Sigma · Jan 31, 2018

Valencia

Sassy Colin · Jan 31, 2018

Has he got a hurty hand?

tomaldinho1 · Jan 31, 2018

Everyone on here knows Pog doesn't work in a 2 so why are we playing it against one of the best teams in the league.

Move Martial up top, Rom comes off. Sanchez left and Lingard right with Herrera making a midfield 3

walkinhop · Jan 31, 2018

Pogba, Matic, and Mourinho having a mare today

Beachryan · Jan 31, 2018

I'm not sure this idea of a midfield 1 is going to catch on.

Best attacking options available according to Jose...

bleedred · Jan 31, 2018

Lukakau has done absolutely nothing. Rashford at half time and a fluid front three of rashford, sanchez and martial.

Lukakau offers nothing in big games.

crackers0seven · Jan 31, 2018

Rojo and Shaw on please

ash_86 · Jan 31, 2018

Big games , 3 in the midfield. How difficult is that to follow?

pseudo_canadian · Jan 31, 2018

Jones, Smalling, and Young looking absolutely clueless.

Is it? I rate Martial as much as anyone but we have options now and with Sanchez's arrival and in a big game we need to be looking beyond just getting all of our best attacking players in and look as to whether it's the best thing for the team in whole. I may be proven wrong but starting 4 attacking players in this game with Pogba and Matic as a two in midfield shows a little naivety imo

As I said naive playing all our attacking players, feck you all you idiots who disagreed with me

No? No need to go gung ho after losing a goal after 10 seconds. Midfield was shit before second goal

That was risky because we barely got Sanchez. Should have benched either Martial or Lingard and add Herrera in midfield

Absolutely. I had my reservations with that lineup and rightly so. How could Jose field such an unbalanced side?

arthurka · Jan 31, 2018

What a performance.... This is why I really doubt Jose as our manager... Nothing of a setup like every game vs top 6.. Terrible performance.

Maradona10 · Jan 31, 2018

The start has fecked us, we have played well but are just out of luck. Defense is having a shit day.

What did the feck are these idiots doing?!

Our defenders look like they've perhaps been boozing all night and day, before turning up to the game.

Nope. Lingard is not a central midfielder. End of story.

Robbie Boy · Jan 31, 2018

Lucky we're only 3 down. Shocking stuff all round.

GloryHunter07 · Jan 31, 2018

Open game, two jammy goals from Spurs. We can still get something here.

Manny · Jan 31, 2018

Herrera for Martial please...

Classical Mechanic · Jan 31, 2018

What's the point in playing completely open and then punting it over the top to attack anyway?

He has made shit tactics though.

Young is getting eaten ylup isolated while Martial is out of position.

That's not necessarily a positive though.
