Un-used sub v Liverpool.

Ouch. That one will hurt the brand in the morning.
 
I wonder if less people buy into Mourinho’s nonsense that somehow we’re a better team without him after that. We could barely pass the ball.
If Pogba played I can bet you that one easy chance would had been made for Rashford and Lukaku.
 
Jose is the most toxic callus man in football. He is a disgrace to Manchester United.

He clearly had no intention of bringing on Pogba. He put him on the bench to embarrass him. Simple as.

Each day Jose is here is harder to support the team because I hate that ''virus'' of a man more about as much as you can hate anybody.

I'll bet that not. He's done nothing lately to make me think that. He's no better or worse then the rest of the lot.
 
Disgusting how this lad has been scapegoated, their midfield had gaps galore second half when they went for it yet he was sitting on the bench. Absolute joke, hang in there Paul, it'll be over soon and you'll be enjoying your football again soon.
 
Pogba fans really have no shame, use any bad result to push their delusional agenda of "Pogba is the best CM in the world and is just a victim of the evil Mourinho's tactics"

Yep. Hi's reason behind bringing putting Pogba in the squad was purely to embarrass him. He clearly had no intention of playing him.

There were opportunities to bring him with us losing the game needed any sort of creative and forward thinking skills and the man left him to rot on the bench and humiliated him.
 
He has our most chances created.....

We've had chances? Must have missed those games. It's the worst midfield we've had since I started supporting the club. The amount of lost possession by our midfield must be at the top of the PL, Pogba is a part of that problem like the rest of them.

Jose is the only relevant problem. The rest cannot be taken in context until we have an actual manager.

Defensively he's part of the problem, but isnt that also due to how we've deployed him? If he isnt doing enough defensively, which he isnt, move him further forward

He has our most shots on target this season, most chances created and statistically our best player.

You take all of that out of the team completely and what are you expecting?
 
I agree Mourinho has to go and quickly but the players are not without blame.
Of course, but again the players that are most to blame e.g Lukaku and Matic are Jose favourites and his signings. Hell young is another favourite of his.

It is his fault he plays and signs the players that aren't good enough.

I expect him to keep possession with simple passes at times, not try pointless tricks that does the opposite, I expect him to dig in and put in some work. He clearly wants to do so much and prove a point but he's doing the opposite atm. I've seen to many games from him where he shows no interest in playing for us at all.

I'm not sure any good attacking player would show interest in playing for us at all
 
Don’t get what we are doing with Pogba. Still got him as our second highest rated player, behind Smalling of all people, this season. He just seems to be held to a different standard to everyone else by Mourinho. Don’t think he would have made the difference today, but we’re not stronger without him in the long term.

So you think he isn't one of the best CM's in the world and what he is showing is as good as he's gonna be? Who's talking delusional rubbish again?

Totally agree, without a proper manager we cannot judge the real potential of the squad. Week in, week out i keep thinking that we still got in our strongest XI some real quality but with Jose we ain't got no strongest XI either
 
Then they need to go out the door with Mourinho.

They won't go out the door since they won't even get in the door. Even players that have a genuine interest in Man Utd would hesitate in this toxic environnement. You can recruit players from Championship if you want though, they'll be interested. This ego of some supporters saying "players that don't want deeply to wear this jersey should feck off" is just ridiculous.
 
I will be absolutely furious if we lose this guy because the soon to be sacked Mourinho needed a figure to focus blame on.

We don't want robots. Liverpool players lost some balls today but it doesn't matter because they keep pressing and probing. And dominating. Take the pressure off our players and we will see a lot more.

So Giroud must be one of the best striker in the league, like Pogba he has won World Cup.

He is not one of the best CMs in the world, never was.
Only time people believed that is when he was playing in a team that has 0 competition in their league and still he was nowhere near being their best player or midfielder.

He is a good player who has a lot of flaws, not a world class one like Modric or Kroos.

Putting all the weight of his failures on Mourinho's back is delusion at It's finest, what excuses will you come up with when he still fails to perform when a new manager comes in?
 
I don't think it's as simple as having a bad attitude, he's always been immensely popular with team-mates and former coaches, I maybe wrong but didn't even Fergie say he never had an issue with the boy it was just his agent.

I think the problem is being a ball playing midfielder under Mourinho's Utd is a near impossible task as there seems to be nobody to make a pass forward too, as our wide forwards are seeming instructed to track opposition full backs all the way to our own box as Zabelta alluded too, leaving only Romelu La-Statute to aim for, your obvious going to get caught on the ball waiting for the non existent movement.

Read the whole conversation before judging. We were discussing Pogba showing lack of interest in which a poster replied that he would have a hard time seeing any attacking player showing interest. My reply was that Pogba could leave with Mourinho if he has no interest in playing for us. What is ridiculous about that? Me wanting a player that has no interest in playing for us to leave?

Who does and doesn't want to join us in the future I have no knowledge about but when they are here I would atleast expect them to show some interest on the pitch.

Its not really, since none of the players are performing, the buck stops with Jose. I don't think Pogba is world class, but he is a world class talent and he is a lot better than we see at United in most cases.

BTW both Modric and Kroos have been shocking this season.
