Hopefully he's not going to become our Alberto Aquilani..................but I find it strange at 4-0 up whey he wasn't given a trot against Fenerbahce. Liverpool and Chelsea I can understand - away games, high stakes, but 4-0 against a piss poor team that has no chance of getting back in the game?

He wasn't in the squad, Jose said he's not match fit.
 
He's been a severely disappointing signing so far. Not his fault for the most part but still.
 
The journos really need to press Jose more on this, we've established its not an injury or fitness issue so something must have happened behind the scenes.
 
HdM- Henri de Mkhitaryan.

Said after the signing that he´s a very sensible guy, who needs to feel loved and have the 100% trust from the coach. This might not work out.
 
Almost forgot this guy existed

Does anyone believe the recent stories that he ain't settling well?

Sounds similar to his time under Klopp at Dortmund
 
What the feck is Mourinho playing at with Mkhitaryan? He looked sharp in pre-season and very good against Hull.

Even if he isn't fully fit (which I don't buy), surely he can't be worse than Young and the like as an option off the bench. It's really baffling.
 
hysterical caf as always, do really think it would be wise to play him after injury in one of the biggest games this season and risk that he will fail to impress or pick another injury trying too hard. It's sensible to play other players who are in better form and game practice than him, it's sensible to start him next home game against Burnley. People stop panicking:)

Lingard for hattrick today

What about Fenerbache?

Jose said he's fit after the injury just before the game, no way he's match fit. Burnley is a good target for him and if he doesn't get on the pitch even on Burnley, than we should start asking questions. I am sure he will at least make the bench but it wouldn't be fair to start him over Lingard who picked a great form recently, Mata's been great too and also sidelined because of the tactical reasons and Fellaini plays instead.. Martial/Rashford still make it to the side before him on the left. It's not like we have Robben here but he's quality but he needs to get into is slowly...
 
In times like these I wouldn't mind having Bundesligas best player last year on the bench instead of Ashley Young. And yes, he is fit.
 
Just a thought Jose, we could have bought another centre half instead of Miki.

Give the guy at least a chance FFS
 
Why Mkhi? Let's start the ineffective Lingard against top opposition and fail yet again. This is getting ridiculous now.

shut it already, I think we can be glad that Micky doesnt play today, this game would absolutely ruined him, it's definitely not about lingard today, the shitty tactics and depending on fellaini needed to be changed. MickyT without match practice would certainly not have helped it, more so it would knock his confidence down if he didn't perform and it's tough conditions today for sure..

Yeah, Lingard is performing really well...
 
He has plenty of excuses to bench our attacking players so he's not obviously criticised when he plays the hard workers.
Even Luke Shaw falls victim to this
 
I'm getting a bit of a feeling he's one of those lets keep the agent happy signings. I just didn't understand why, if fit, he didn't get some minutes against the Turks on Thursday.

I'd understand if he was a shite player and we signed him to keep Raiola happy, but he's arguably better than some of the players who get in the squad ahead of him.

Not a chance. He was the best player in the Bundesliga last year, he's not fcuking Bebe.

He's arguably one of the best wingers/#10's in the league at his best so it would be incredibly weird if he was being wasted.
 
This defeat basically forces Mourinho to give Mikhitaryan a chance soon. Hopefully he takes it.
