    Stayed up til 3am to watch us be bossed by City's B team. Mourinho is a joke and our defenders are frauds.
     
    Jesus christ play football! Fecking millions of dollars running on the pitch doing nothing!
     
    Sterling has great dribbling and he's very quick, but I always feel that any cross or shot has a 50/50 chance of either being great or terrible. I don't think he'll last there if they continue at this level.
     
    Really hard to watch the team you love playing so poorly.It's hard to find anything positive to cling on to.We won't lose second place today but we look a million miles away from City.
     
    Some of the most beautiful football from pep. Cannot relate us doing what city is doing now . Fernandinho is new ronaldinho in front of us.

    And who will take his place exactly? Other options are not exactly any better. There were also games when he was our best CB by far.
    The main point is Jose's outdated style of play and preparation. That's a third City goal conceded from set piece while United have not had a proper chance from set pieces against top team in ages.

    There has to be better defenders out there than him. There simply has to be. Jose has nothing to do with Smallings consistent inability to defend a corner.
     
    Dutch people here loving it. We are wverything they hate. Anti football getting destroyed in their opinion.
     
    You lot are brave to even watch this. The sooner Jose goes and get a manager with balls in, th easier it will be to watch us play. City have just shat on us with the runs this year' last few years has been similar
     
    Jose deplores attacking so this is the result. No one wants him to go mad and leave us crazy open, but surely we have to do better in the final third of the pitch to at least get us on the front foot?
     
    First goal: Sanchez just falls over for no apparent reason and gives the ball away.

    Second goal: De Gea, without pressure, just plays it straight into the feet of a City player inside our own half.

    It’s hard to win football matches against decent teams if you’re just giving the ball away for no apparent reason. Perhaps if Mourinho made plans for what to do when we have the ball, and worked on it in training, we’d be better off. Just speculation, of course.
     
    Its amazing how poor we are on the ball once we get pressured. No composure and other teammates just ball watching rather than moving into space.
     
    We have not dominated any teams this season as much as City is dominating us.
     
    Remember when Sanchez was supposed to fix the attack?

    No players can fix poorly trained attacking units.
     
    Frankly look how city player attacking and pressing for the ball compared to us
     
    I've had it with pogba. does nothing, gives away possession, doesn't chase back when he loses it (which is pretty much always). Not a single outfield player or pours would make it into their XI today let alone their best side
     
    We have no width whatsoever. We’re playing so narrow and keep running into traffic and turning the ball over
     
    Well Jose hasn't parked the bus, on the plus side.
     
    Doesn't say much for the players mentality when they all go to s**t when they concede one goal never mind two. Can barely string a pass together now.
     
    I've turned it off, I have no confidence in these wet blankets. City have made us their bitch for years now and it looks like it will continue for the foreseeable future.
     
    Why is this B team? They are using Bernardo and Danilo, the rest are all starters.

    Goals haven't even come from us "trying" to play football.

    Valencia kicks it out for a corner for absolutely no reason.

    De Gea fecks up an easy pass and then poor marking. It's schoolboy errors.
     
    If City are just going to foul every time we try and pass the ball, can we not do the same?

    It's ridiculous that they get away with it, but if you can't beat em...
