Manchester United 0:1 Crystal Palace

Post-match discussion


Sat, 30 September 2023

I think we actually played well.

Kept the pressure on Palace for around 70 minutes, but just didn't score.

Final thirds the issue, I think we miss Antony on the right. Need a run of good form for the forwards and goals will do that.

When Shaw is back and Amrabat is in the midfield a fully fit squad makes us one of the best in the league IMO just need another game or two but I think we're turning a corner.

Ignore the result today there were some good performances and we're not far off it.
 
Unacceptable performance! Absolute rubbish joke! Now we’re in a crisis
 
The money in the bank is dropping game by game for Erik.

We don't look coached or drilled more than anything, and that really worries me. What is going on?
 
Dont want Casemiro to start another game for us, sure he scores some headers but he cand defend and he gives the ball away every time he has it.

Rashford needs to be a last 10 minute sub as well, Garnacho is levels above him.

Be ready for the Rashford PR team to come at you for this post.

Garnacho did more in his spare minutes than Rashford did the entire game
 
with our defensive injuries, if this had been a wild high scoring game, it would be a little more understandable

better second half, but a lot of huff and puff amounting to nothing

Very worrying
 
As bad as anything under Moyes, LVG, Jose or Ole.

Insipid, listless, pathetic, slow, zero plan, zero execution.

We're fecked this season.

I don't care if nobody else would do any better with this shower of shite, it's no excuse to keep on carrying on as we are.
 
No injury excuses for this. We have almost a fully fit attack and barely got a sniff on goal
 
Losing 1-0 at home to a Crystal Palace team managed by Roy Hodgson in 2023 is disgraceful. There's zero positives to take from this. It was another disaster of a performance in a very, very underwhelming and overall poor season.

We can't score goals and don't want to score goals. Not sure where Hojlund's first goal is going to come from. Sick of these cnuts.
 
Pathetic. We are useless in all aspects of our game. Can't score, can't keep a clean sheet. I despair at this stage. Yes there are certain factors affecting us, like injuries and loss of form to certain players. But the results and performances have been unacceptable.
 
I’m off to work so this will be quick,

One of the main reasons we don’t create mis that we often rely of Dalot to create something around the area. Partly by design, but also teams are onto that and are willing to let him have possession. He isn’t a threat.

Not to point only him out obviously, but just an observation.

Says more about the state of our team in possession more than anything else.
 
We played far better when Rashford went off. Martial and Garnacho have better interlinking passing
 
May have been one of the worst officiating performances I have seen this season. And that's saying something.
 
Didn’t see the game but I feel like I’ve seen it a million times anyway.

Ten Hag has a mountain to climb if things don’t pick up.
 
Palace didn't even break a sweat. Got their goal and it was job done. Cruise control to an easy win at Old Trafford.
 
Awful. Putting VAR to one side, just generally awful.
 
Very bad. The issue is not one of individual performance but of general play with big issues in all phases of play. ETH needs to address this ASAP as it's on him.
 
I wish I could say I was surprised. Horrible really. Until Garnacho came on there was no real desire to get around the back of them and cross. The plan seemed to be to try and walk it in. Pouring with rain but we barely tested Johnstone to see if he might drop one. Poor really.
 
I really don't know what to make of that. There were bright passages of play, a lot of shitty braindead passages of play as well as chore-y stuff somewhere in between. Van Gaal-esque?
 
Dont want Casemiro to start another game for us, sure he scores some headers but he cand defend and he gives the ball away every time he has it.

Rashford needs to be a last 10 minute sub as well, Garnacho is levels above him.

Absolutely, rashford has done literally nothing to deserve a place in the starting 11
 
Gonna be a long season.

Palace parked the bus and United didn't have any composure in attack and got what they deserved.
 
Might as well enjoy Champions League this season because it won't be back in Old Trafford next season. Maybe we will get a lucky cup run. League season is over before it began.
 
Loud boo's ring around the stadium , and they are deserved . Not good enough form the players , manager and Club.

Another all too familiar day of failure.

We are boring to watch , ineffective and going backwards.
 
United is beyond shit.
So easy to defend against. Just kick Rashford and leave right flank to do whatever, they won't create jack shit from it
 
Absolute disaster. ETH is another false dawn. Don't see where we go from here.
 
This season is officially a writeoff.

Time for me to be a Manchester City fan this season in the hope that Liverpool doesn’t win the title.

Oh, they lost too.
 
I don't think we were that bad. There will be a lot of block back for ETH and the team because it's an awful result and we did lack some cutting edge against a deep, well drilled defence, but I don't think overall it was that bad as an individual performance. We had huge control over the game, we just couldn't find the killer blow. It happens in football but we're on a poor run so things will also be seen in light of that. Which is not totally unfair either, the results at the moment are very poor.
 
Less to do with intensity or any injuries - just mediocre coaching. Such a pedestrian, lower mid-table display anywhere near the opponent's box. Palace defence were feasting on being able to make easy blocks and cut out space. Awful sign, honestly, in terms of claims to making any on the pitch progress. Don't think Antony being back would have changed things either.
 
And the Glazers still value this club at £10b.
Disgusted with the players today.
This is an awful Palace side too.
 
The thing is, you could tell from very early on that our team looked utterly uncapable of creating a decent chance.

There is no creativity in this team whatsoever and against an average Palace side, to have created almost nothing of note playing at home,does not bode well at all.
 
Ten Hag is a worse manager than Ole.

This was painful to watch.
