Post-match discussion


Sat, 26 September 2020

Can't take anything away from that game other than good result and a serious improvement required.
 
We've used up a massive slice of whatever good fortune we were due this season.
 
One of the biggest injustice that I've ever seen in football. If there was any doubt that Solskjaer isn't leading us to the top...

Top 4 trophy chase, here we go again.
MOTM: Between luck, VAR and the goal post, tough to decide
 
Feck yes. We just need to get through this period.
6 goals in 2 games, hope it kicks us into gear
 
It's funny we won but it's only so many times we can pull such an escape off.
 
Better side lost, but move on and quickly.

We need to get fit, Ole needs to make a call on the midfield because it’s not working and we need more options in the final 3rd.
 
Terrible performance. A lot of those players need to sort themselves out. Pogba needs to be dropped next game. Bruno, Martial and AWB were all crap. AWB in particular was constantly out of position. Typical United win though.
 
Brilliant result given we were the worse team for about 85 minutes of those 97.

Maupay the hero turned villain - shouldn't have displayed that arrogance which lit the fuse for our leveller.

Matic MOTM out of a bad bunch, but Ole...I don't know what to say. Looks beaten.
 
Brighton hit the post 5 times. We were so lucky today, and Ole is lucky to still be the manager.
 
3 points (somehow) but outplayed for a second weekend in a row by a team hoping to finish 10th-15th.
 
VAR is a load of shite. So now you can go back in time and re-do stuff? So can they be sitting in the changing room and the VAR team see an incident and then they all return to the field? I'm exaggerating of course but VAR - even when it benefits United - is a pile of shite.
 
I don't know what to say. One of the most undeserved wins I've ever seen. Farcical defending from start to finish, the most predictable equaliser imaginable and a winning penalty after the final whistle - although the pen itself was correct. There's no hiding from the fact that our defence is completely worthless, but surely a large part of that is down to our coaching. This club is going nowhere with the current board and manager.
 
That’s got to be one of the luckiest wins in PL history. They hit the woodwork 5 times and we scored the only chances we created all game and needed a last second penalty!

The performance was awful, just like last week. In the first half Matic and Shaw were decent. In the second half I don’t think anyone deserves a shout out. Individually poor and collectively poor.

We were destroyed down the Brighton left all day and no one on or off the pitch did anything to address the problem. So much to digest!
 
Christ on a barnacle, I’m about 15 years older than I was before kick off.

Solly March was free so many times, why did nobody change the shape? Wan Bissaka out of position so many times and Greenwood not helping out defensively. Very poor.

Glad we won though.
 
Who the hell coach defending on this team? Where are the managers decisions when the other team is constantly alone on the right? Horrible coaching.
 
Love it! We are struggling but a win is good for the confidence. We needed the 3 points. We need to work real hard but right now I don't care. Loved loved the drama:drool:
 
I’m officially Ole out because he doesn’t have a clue what to do with his System. But my god what an undeserved Win. I’ll take it though.
 
Bruno was average today. But yet, set up first goal with his superb free kick, assited second with superb through ball and then converted a pen. I will take that.
 
Can see why Mourinho played every game with 8 men in defence. About as sturdy as wet toilet paper
