[LARulz]

we are set up too defensive.

Yep, and to keep the ball. Yet we can't do anything. Can't defend or keep the ball

 

[DevilRed]

Yep. Sad to see so many writing us off in here based on a few minutes of the first half. Utd bound to have a spell or 2 in the game. Some have said they're turning the telly off. I lolled.

Tall order to even get a point from this fixture if you consider our away form over the last season or two.

We were very lucky last year beating them on the counter. This year they have put us away early.

Some shocking defending and the team just looks fatigued from the midweek game. Playing wingers at fullbacks is always going to come back to bite you against quality teams.

 

[Reddevilboy]

We will be lucky to get anything out of this game.

 

[MadMike]

Also, after Wolfsburg, this is another very lethargic start to a game by us. I'm sure LVG will bring that to the player's attention.

 

[Zlaatan]

Exactly what we needed this, bring us back down to earth with a BANG.
Top 4 is going to be a real struggle and hopefully this ends all the title crap.

What? You think this is good?

 

[2 man midfield]

Just need to calm ourselves. If we get one they'll shit themselves.

 

[Callum93]

I couldn't get a decent river for this - they all keep buffering every 5 seconds. Only been 15 mins but maybe it's a blessing.

match day thread , I type what I feel at the time.
Hopefully we can get something, but that first 15 was maybe the worst I have ever seen.

 

[Born2Lose]

I don't really understand how Van Gaal goes on about match rhythm but a player like Carrick just walks straight back into the team

 

[Snow]

Ref so quick to blow the whistle. Martial didn't get the ball. No point whistling for offside.

 

[pseudo_canadian]

Baffles me how we end up with Young at LB when we have actual defenders on the bench. What is LVG on about?

 

[Adnandos]

Oh well

 

[Anustart89]

Another deft touch by Rooney and by deft, i mean shite

 

[Danny1982]

We will have a good spell in this game, but 2-0 is too deep a hole to overcome, especially away from home.

We'll also be open to counters, which Arsenal are good at.

 

[Smores]

Shame that we've ignored the tactics of how we usually beat Arsenal. Giggs should know all too well

 

[ottosec]

Meh, this is Arsenal, if we score one they'll start shitting themselves.

 

[kouroux]

This Utd team hasn't showed it is capable of overturning situations like these. Not under LVG.

 

[dannyrhinos89]

Lvg has his selection all wrong,

Smalling and Jones should be our CB

Blind should have gone to LB

Young should start in Mata place and Mata should be at 10

Rooney should go away

Schneiderlain should've started in place of either Basti or carrick

 

[Jazz]

Knew they were going to come at us but didn't expect us to be 2 down within 10 mins. Anyway, come on lads wake up!

 

[Winrar]

Meh, this is Arsenal, if we score one they'll start shitting themselves.

a big if there

 

[InfiniteBoredom]

Taking too long on the ball, must try to force the issue a bit.

 

[red_devil83]

Behold! A miracle! Rooney didn't lose the ball with his first touch

 

[Ainu]

We're far too static. Which was completely to be expected by the way, with that midfield. We need energy in there for games like this. Van Gaal fecked up big time here.

 

[saivet]

Bloody hell Darmian

 

[Lennon7]

I knew we'd miss Shaw

 

[Summit]

This Utd team hasn't showed it is capable of overturning situations like these. Not under LVG.

we come from behind last game

 

[crimsonife]

Arsenal needed a reaction. Sucks to concede twice but we need to get back into the game and hit them, their confidence will be gone

 

[MAME DIOUF 32]

The shorts are worse than the performance. Warrior-tier awfulness

 

[UnofficialDevil]

wtf cross from Darmian

 

[Shane88]

Darmian couldn't cross his legs, nevermind a ball.

 

[kouroux]

Darmian doesnt know how to cross.

 

[Reynoldo]

I'm just gonna pretend we weathered the first ten minutes and its nil all, game starts now

 

[sizzling sausages]

I don't really understand how Van Gaal goes on about match rhythm but a player like Carrick just walks straight back into the team

He wasn't out for a month, he played last weekend!

 

[Raoul]

Arsenal seem to have started like we did against LvG's Bayern in the CL at OT.

 

[Bojan11]

Much better.

 

[J-Stander]

Darmian has been a disgrace. Get him off ASAP.

 

[Sky1981]

We're losing our heads here

 

[Amadaeus]

Give it to feet to Martial, Mata and Memphis.

 

[pacifictheme]

might has well turn it off now, there is no coming back from this.

Thats the spirit.

 

[Traub]

Ozil with a goal and assist in a big game.
