Stick bruno / rash on and hope for the best. Ole-ball.

AWB is our MOTM so far because he did one good thing.

That's the barometer of our team

Lindelof's move forward to create offside, when Martial shitted his pants saved us from a clear goal. I thought Lindelof should get full credit for that one.

How is Pogba getting the blame here ? He’s been the only decent player.

That has to the most emberrassing first half i've actually seen under Ole. We have had enough subpar games, but this is just completely shocking. West Ham looks like prime 09 Barcelona, and that is only possible against garbage opponents, and today they have had that.

This is worse than anything we saw under Moyes.

A major plus side is that it's only 1-0 and we can definitely come back and still win this, with the right mentality, tactics and aggression.

However, I'm so tired of watching well below average performances like this. We are not improving as a footballing side and the quality of our play is abysmal. Our average, typical, weekly performance is nowhere near to what it should be.

I don't care abt results. Genuinely. Just play football for God's sake.

Classic Pogba shot. Weak and straight at the keeper (or blasted wide)

He must score 1 in every 40 shots from long range. It’s nearly as bad as Fred’s conversion rate. I don’t know why he even bothers shooting.

Siorac · Dec 5, 2020

I'm trying to figure out what sport we're attempting to play out there. It sure doesn't look like football.

Sultan · Dec 5, 2020

Pogba is not fit, and VDB, Martial, Greenwood all look lost. Shambolic from the defence.

pascell · Dec 5, 2020

Wan Bisakka giving Fornals (whos probably the shortest player on the pitch) the free header in our box after being unaware of where he was, sums up that half for me. Absolutely embarrassing.

After losing to PSG I thought we'd see a reaction, how wrong was I. The demeanour of our players before the goal only suggested to me that they were down and out.

manunited1919 · Dec 5, 2020

It's time to sack Ole. He can go back to being a legend for us.

Is he is not fit, no need to force him and make him unavailable for the CL game.

Godfather · Dec 5, 2020

Bowen absolutely fisted us

Exactly at this point people just hate the guy there's absolutely no logic. Not saying much but he's easily been the only functioning midfielder.

I Am Zlatan · Dec 5, 2020

I see everyone saying Pogba, but not only him, Maguire, Scott, Martial, haven’t seen much from VDB and Cavani. AWB is the best player for us currently, Bruno and Rashford for pogba and mason and we’ll get a point or 3 from this game, I just have a feeling.

DrRodo · Dec 5, 2020

we have a tendency of getting better in second halves. get in!

Can I assume that most posters here were also players at one point in their lives?
So I ask: if you were out on the pitch and your teammates played like Pogba, would you not bite his head off at HT? Or confront him on the pitch? If Pogba was my teammate, I would’ve come to blows with him months ago! Disgraceful!
Am I wrong? Would any of you accept that performance from a teammate?

He's not the worst out there. Martial, Greenwood and DVB are doing feck all. There isn't much he can do

Switch the positions of VDB and Pogba and we won't look as disjointed. But Ole can't see this, can he?

No, or he wouldn't have put them in those positions in the first place.

Laughable, but not funny.

Don’t remember a half of football that bad for a long time.

First half against Southampton last weekend?

I thought Ole learnt his lesson to never play pogba as a DM again.

Away to West Ham vs Rice and that giant and with no DM. Insanity!

Is Fred injured ? He can’t play Tuesday so why isn’t he playing? With no Bruno it’s the perfect chance to play Pogba in the 10.

I'm so tired of seeing this team playing without any sort of urgency. We're late to loose balls, no ones making any runs, we look half-assed and complacent when receiving the ball even though the West Ham players are close to us. No one in our team is making that run on the back post they scored from, we're simply not gambling on where the ball might end up (maybe bar Cavani but he's been starved of service).

Thing is you cannot play with Urgency against a David Moyes team. Awful Awful football. Kick, pump it up the field, frustrate, knock ons, close the space and lines.

I’d say spurs at home was more embarsssing. But this is up there. Absolutely woeful performance.

redom · Dec 5, 2020

Seems like in the last 15 they realised how much success they could have if they upped the intensity and tested our defence. From then on it was one way traffic and we're lucky to still be in this game.

No question.

Ranchero · Dec 5, 2020

Pogba plays like he is in a training match. Sauntering around laziness, slopping passing, lack of desire.

Still ill · Dec 5, 2020

I'd leave Wan Bissaka on. Does 10 subs seem too much? Have we been first to a single 50 50?

Solius · Dec 5, 2020

If you convinced West Ham they were playing Utd every week they’d win the lot.

No, we need to show that we’re not a one man team.

We have to go behind as well.

Dansk · Dec 5, 2020

This is the point of no return for Ole and Pogba, in my book. Both need to be gone before the start of next season. Nothing for it, they simply aren't living up to any kind of expectations. Ole was at his level at Molde and Cardiff, and Pogba can feck off to PSG or wherever. No more of this pathetic shit.

VDB and Pogba should switch positions.

VP89 · Dec 5, 2020

Evra is so annoying with a narrative on the HT show. He has it in again VDB even when him and Pogba are equally shit, he wants to go out and say Rice is dominating VDB and glosses over Pogba completely.

horsechoker · Dec 5, 2020

Put the Bruno signal in the sky, tell him to fire up the Brunomobile.

VorZakone · Dec 5, 2020

Why is the team so static though? It's quite remarkable.

SCJY · Dec 5, 2020

That midfield is useless. WH are super energetic and McTom and Pogba simply aren't a good pairing and McT should never be starting.

Bobcat · Dec 5, 2020

My god that was shite.

I am no fan of Pogba, but he was far from the worst one out there, so the people slating him either need new glasses or they need to throw their biases away. He was fine

Wing Attack Plan R · Dec 5, 2020

That was our worst first half performance yet. Nothing is working, no one knows their role, the fullbacks are stymied, they’ve got Telles completely sussed, Martial is channeling Lukaku’s hilarious first touch, every ball is into feet, etc.

How much do we rely on Bruno? This garbage show is Exhibit A.

We are a hot mess and lucky to not be 3 or 4 in the hole.

always_hoping · Dec 5, 2020

How many goals is that conceded now from corners and United deciding to do zonal marking.

I hate this fixture away to West Ham too many bad memories over the years. All to do now to prevent yet another bad day.

Bullshit

carvajal · Dec 5, 2020

Maguire is annoying, constantly pointing out obvious things to his teammates when it comes to positioning and defending.
There was one occasion when the West Ham striker was left alone and fell where Pogba didn't bother to come down to defend.
That coupled with the fact that he has failed very easy passes ... wouldn't he be more productive if he played closer to the area?
That or move Van de Beek, who seems lost.
