    Job done even when we made it look so difficult. Needed the win but the performance doesn’t bode well when we are going to be approaching a tough run of fixtures. Those teams must be rubbing their hands at the prospect of facing this lot.
     
    This is a silly post - there's plenty to criticise with Maguire recently, but not taking chances against a much faster attacker with the ball a few yards from going out isn't really one of them.
    In other words, Maguire is vastly overrated and may in fact be totally shit. A basic, BASIC, fecking technique of defending and Maguire can't do it. Instead, he puts us under pressure by giving them the fecking ball.
     
    Abysmal first half, and a better 2nd half, first 10 mins of the 2nd better, sending off was the difference the result is what matters in the end . Should have been more goals, Pogba, needs to start. Bigger game on the weekend. Take the points, that's it. Another painful watch on Sunday . Ha ha night night lads
     
    Very good second half. Keep this up and we’ll snatch 3rd IMO

    Give me some of whatever you're on.

    They had 10 men but it felt like we had 10 men.

    Snatch 3rd? No chance, that was a truly terrible performance and we haven't even played one of the top teams under Rangnick yet.

    We aren't going to get destroyed by someone soon.
     
    Three points. If it wasn’t for a stroke of luck (for a change) that would have been a draw. Papering over the cracks and a top team would destroy us. If Fred is picked again, Rangnick needs to be sacked.

    Who do you think gets the nod at Elland Road on Sunday and against Atletico

    I'm more and more convinced that people are clueless.

    Plenty of things that we did well and plenty more that we didn't do so well. Just the knee-jerk opinions one way or the other .. at the very least anyone commenting we were shit should just be on the ignore list.

    Yeah there were some good parts but can't afford that first half against any of the top 3 or will get battered good and proper
     
    Hearing that Bruno's goal's just been cancelled by VAR and Brighton have scored a quick equaliser before the final whistle :(

    We were dominated before the red card mate home against Brighton. We are a mess, and today didnt change anything.

    10-man Brighton had as much possession, and nearly drew/won it there at the death. Brighton. 10 men. We were shitting our pants against 10-man Brighton. No, you're right, we were fecking brilliant.

    Saving energy by ineffective or non-existent pressing, instead of vainly chasing shadows, and luring Brighton into a sloppy defending worked a treat. Saving energy by playing deep knowing that Brighton can't shoot for toffee and catching them on the counter worked a treat as well.
