If other way they would be justifying why Dean sent him off and praising him for being brave. Although it was a harsh red.

Thought the same. Would have claimed good decision if other way round. Even my scouse mate said he can see why its a red.

Lingard is so so shit. Need to sell him.I call him Shitgard. He is just in there because he is from academy. He would not get in any top 4 side of any of top 5 leagues.

I'mm sure Mou isn't playing him just because he came through the academy, he has a squad and plays it how he sees fit.

MyOnlySolskjaer · Jan 2, 2017

Young for Darmian, Martial for Lingard.

DevilRed · Jan 2, 2017

I wish someone could put in a decent cross/ball into the box. Its literally all we need to do to keep west ham under pressure. Yet the likes of Darmian/Lingard/Herrera play this mindless sideways/backwards passes even when in good positions.

As others have said..a bit hysterical in here.
WH away is tough and not helped with the red.

We're playing the slowest football we've played in a good while against a team there for the taking. Tired legs and all that but we're playing at walking pace.

Players look absolutely tired. I feel sorry for some of the guys out there like zlatan Pogba ander. Playing 90 mins non stop

That's not an excuse. You have pro tennis players playing 3-4 hours back to back. This should not be an excuse having in mind WHU are in the same position.

Amar__ · Jan 2, 2017

Mata for Carrick and Martial for Lingard please.

RetroStu · Jan 2, 2017

Its like an attitude thing with us. Like instead of thinking "they are down to 10 men, lets turn the screw, lets do this!", we are like "phew they are down to 10 men, we can relax a bit now guys".

Is the right way. Darmian on a yellow and a bit useless in attack. Lingard shits himself when the heat is on.

dichinero · Jan 2, 2017

Absolute bottle job stuff. The whole team seems good of ideas BUT those calling for Fellaini should be careful for what they wish for

When was the last time he crossed the half way line let alone delivered a cross?

EyeInTheSky · Jan 2, 2017

We have to hit them fast and hard from the get go we can't let them galvanise and gain confidence in trying to nick it.

This is the perfect game for Martial and Mata as it stands. The pace and the nous to unlock them.

And I watched it.

You are supposed to not watch us anymore.

Jed I. Knight · Jan 2, 2017

Mourinho has a job to do during the break. We've looked bad since the sending off, and it seems as if we collectively treat the red card as if it means we've already been gifted the three points.

We need to up our game seriously, and you know Dean will be looking to redeem himself as well, so I fully expect West Ham to get a serious gift from him in the second half as well.

Not feeling very confident at the moment...

squidoo · Jan 2, 2017

I must be watching a different game...in games like this you aint going to improve your pass rate completion percentage.
You have to try tougher passes to open up the game...more chance of them failing..
For me Herrera has been fine just unlucky.

Not sure why the red is such a big talking point (in the sense that commentators and posters here are going on about it as if it's one of the worst decisions they've seen). There have been plenty worse decisions this season (many against us). On live viewing I thought it was borderline red and could easily be given. Sure, on replays you can see it shouldn't be, but the ref doesn't get the benefit of replays.

The commentators, Neville in particular, are really annoying me with their focus on it. The way Neville is going on about the ref losing control and not knowing what to do has been a joke. I have seen others say he's been fairly poor commentating this season, so is this just usual for him these days?

Give me a break. If we were on the receiving end of that, we'd be livid, and rightly so. It's just another shit decision from possibly the worst ref in the EPL (and that's saying something.)

Macern · Jan 2, 2017

I fear it'll end 0-0

Not that bad of a half. We kept control, should be in the lead if not those incredible misses.

I only counted one incredible miss, and that was from Valencia's off side position. I only counted one chance actually and that wasn't a good one.

Wow, did you get help to come up with that?

carlosp · Jan 2, 2017

We only need three at the back. Play like we did against Middlesbrough. Mata/Rashford, Martial on for Darmian and Lingard.

Sky pulling no punches on Dean. Say he wants to be the centre of the attention and it was disgraceful refereeing.

Mike Dean being slaughtered by Niall Quinn and Alan Smith, and rightfully so.

Does anyone think their outrage would have been tempered slightly had the sending off been a United player?

Yep, our left wing really isn't offering much today.

RedSky · Jan 2, 2017

Martial or Rashford in and go for them from the sides

Yeah but we're not, so why are we livid anyways.

Kag · Jan 2, 2017

Young for Darmian is definitely the sub we need to make. We need width and Young can fill in in full back and actually offer something going forward.

Lord Zlatan · Jan 2, 2017

We will win this.

Offside · Jan 2, 2017

Quinn is bang on. It's the arrogance of the referees that is terrible. The way they never come out and explain these decisions and just serve up the same shite a week later.

Still, at least something went for us after the other referee horror show in our match 2 days ago.

charlenefan · Jan 2, 2017

Please tell me Lingard is coming off

Quinn the ex Arsenal,City and Sunderland man? Not sure why he'd be objective

I wouldn't want him to be objective.

I mean, football is about rivalries. I want to hear as much partiality as possible. For one thing, I'm intelligent enough to make up my own mind. For another, I'm not precious about people who have different opinions to me. It's a part of why I love football and enjoy going to matches to sit opposite rival fans.

Red Dreams · Jan 2, 2017

The red was correct. They also should have had another yellow for that foul on Darmain.

VivaObertan · Jan 2, 2017

Funny that we've been victim to bad refereeing all season but now it's happened for United against a media darling it's the main talking point and a disgrace.

Mata set to come on
First change of the day about to happen.

Mata's out early with one of the coaches. Seems set to come on. #mufc
