    This is on the board for fecking around all summer. Gross incompetence to not replace the CM. We are exactly where we should be with McFred.
     
    We have a team of talentless, boneless, heartless players. Never seen an United team as bad.
    Ten Hag is in deep sh*t.
    We should have started a season with a new midfield, a new striker and a new right back at least.
    But after the worst season in the premier league our team is worst…
     
    There's a reason I never really blamed Ronaldo for turning his nose up at the Europa league and another season long fight for 4th. He wants to win things, our owners want to count TV money
     
    I think this is the worst 45 minutes I have seen any team play at PL level.
     
    I think our players are terrified of OT. Why are we playing absolutely nothing like we did in pre season?
     
    Ten Hag will be gone by Christmas, even though it's clear that the Glazers, Arnold and Murtough should be out on their arses long before him. Fecking horror show.

    Get ready for another long and painful season lads.
     
    This is like the 4th or 5th coach to have mcfred as starters.. fecking cnuts never learn. Get fired, who cares anymore
     
    In Fred, McT and Bruno we have the 3 worst midfielders I have seen in the first week of games.
     
    Just watch Fred for that goal. Step 1: commits himself unnecessarily up the pitch, with no game awareness that the RB is ahead of him. Leaves the defenders with a 3 on 3.

    Step 2, those 3 defenders go with the 3 attackers, he comes back into the box. And he can see the Brighton runners ahead of him. What does he do? Stands marking nobody, allows the runner to score.

    He's simply too (footballing) dim to play in central midfield. Combine that with his 2 attempts to gift Brighton a goal and it's just mind-breaking.
     
    Bruh why is Eriksen playing false 9. Just get him deeper. What is this shitty tactic…
     
    It's not even being 2 nil down. Brighton have absolutely played us off the park.
     
    Hammered by Brighton in May, New manager and same old shit from these flaky players. Making Danny Welbeck look like prime Messi. It's going to be a long depressing season ahead.
     
    For me at the moment Ronaldo on for McT.

    Ronaldo isn't up to match fitness but at least he still has positioning and composure to bury chances. Have him up top, Bruno being the legs behind him, and Fred and Eriksen in midfield to try and get some sense of composure and to advance the ball.

    Then later bring on Garnarcho for Rashford. Rashford is doing nothing and at least Garnarcho is a wild card.

    Slim pickings but have to work with what we have right now.
     
    Can we give Maguire away? And McTominay? Championship level players.
     
    Not only are the players not good enough so many of them are simply and never will be capable of playing type of football manager wants. We’ll be ripped apart regularly playing like this with these players.
