Oh McTom...
Watching us go down was worstUp to 7th then, but only just. Grim times.
We should have just won the game thereSure, it doesn't win you games by itself. But, we're the home team, so it should be expected that we see more of the ball. Going further than that, one would expect Manchester United to be dominating the ball against the vast majority of teams, maybe coming up short against the likes of Barcelona or teams of that ilk. Seeing a third of the ball at home is poor and is inexcusable. We have been far too open and have looked worse the further back you go through the team. Defensively, they've dominated us.
If you take possession out of the equation (which is silly as it robs you of important context - but ok), look at everything else. Look at chances, look at shots, look at the fact we've lost the lead twice. Look at the actual game and tell me that the 'plan' is working. This is just another overall poor performance. We've dropped points from a winning position. Twice.
Edit: It's the 91st minute and the team with the ball pushing into their opponents half looking for a winner is not us.

He's on the left because ETH is a moron, though.AWB is just such a limited player. Sticks out like a sore thumb against technically sound players
I think the premier league doesn’t do Eriksen any favoursRashford and Bruno have been frustrating this match. Outside of rashfords well taken goal of course. These high intensity matches also doesn’t do Eriksen any favours.
