Sack Jose, sell De Gea

4-1 is disappointing, expected a 7-0 minimum after seeing that Basel won 5-0 vs Benfica

Felt like an exhibition game after the third. Was hoping we'd just see off the game with no injuries, so hopefully Martial coming off was just precautionary.
 
Happy with that. Thought it would be a tricky fixture for us....
 
Good display in a very tough away fixture. Our defending was quite poor though, for some reason we were scared to make tackles in and around the box which was frustrating. Otherwise great performance
 
The one gripe I have with Jose...

If you can't bring the young lads on as subs when we're 4-0 up, away from home in a CL group game and it's comfortable, then why bother bringing them at all?

Tuanzebe for Young. McTominay for Martial.
 
They were poor. We totally dominated them, really comfortable evening. Can't ask for much more than that.
 
That's it, I have to say it. United cannot keep the game interesting for 90 minutes. What bs is this? Score 3 goals early, add one more in the 60th minute and then leave the viewer exasperated for the remaining 30 odd minutes. What am I supposed to do in that time? Eat popcorn?

Other teams are considerate of their viewers and keep the scoreline close at touch and go. Not us, Mourinho can't help himself. He has to have his 4 goals as early as possible the greedy bas**rd. And then that's it. He can't have any more goals.

So he brings on Lingard and Darmian and what do they do? Try to score themselves. Greedy bas**rds. And as if Martial already didn't have enough assists apart from a goal off a penalty. He wants more assists.

And don't even let me start about Lukaku. 10 goals in 9 games. Who does he think he is? Coming from a mid-table side like Everton and trying to ruin records of our legends.

Thank God he didn't get a hat-trick. Else Pochettino would have said he is better than Kane who as per him is better than Ronaldo meaning Lukaku is better than Ronaldo.

Well at least I saw one great goal in the 80th minute.

But, I'm so done with trying to watch us play for 90 minutes. Mourinho out!
You dragged this joke out a little too long imo.

Sell Jose though
 
Would've been nice to keep the clean sheet but I suppose losing concentration is inevitable in a game like this. Game was effectively over within the first half hour.
Remember it is a lot later there. They are usually tucked up in bed at this time.
 
Easy win. could have been more than 4. But Mkhi and Martial's substitutions has me worried.

Why? Whats the obession of youth for youth sake. I couldnt care less.

If they are good enough they play, if not, they dont.
 
9 matches played, 28 goals scored, 4 conceded. It's not bad, is it?
 
Great performance. Martial, Romelu, Matic, Ross and Dave all exceptional but I can't really fault anyone to be honest.
 
Dunphy and Brady talking absolute nonsense here, even by their standards.

First Brady says we lack a Coutinho type player to win a Championship League, then Dunphy says Valencia is a winger not a fullback and you see he's not good enough when he comes up against real quality.

Brady also told us he didn't bother watching United at the weekend even though he was being paid to analyse them this evening.

I imagine he'll be looking to keep his first team players match fit. He doesn't want to be bringing these players back into the side when theyve played less than the youngsters.
 
What happened to Baily? His passing is all over the place tonigh, even Lingard gave him a go because he cleared it to the front instead playing it out from the back, even Smalling has more composure on the ball tonight
 
Should've scored 7, class performance. Not playing Martial should be a crime he is a fecking genius.
 
Good relationship developing between Martial (who was superb) and Lukaku.

Think that's 10 goals in 9 games for Lukaku. Some start.
 
Why do the Lukaku and Mkhitaryan goal captions say pen?

Anyway, yeah, good solid performance. Far far easier than I thought it would be!
 
I missed the game but looking at those goals, holy feck CSKA can't defend. That said, I think we're a real threat in Europe this year. Jose knows how to win.
 
Liverpool fans in Moscow yesterday: Why can't we score more than once? Another soft goal and a draw, so frustrating!
United fans in Moscow today: 4-1, could (should) have been more. Shame about the late goal we let in.

Shame about the clean sheet but it was over after 30 minutes. Martial tore them apart. Some wasteful finishing, could've easily had 7
 
when Martial plays like that it's hard to think of any premier league player better than him.
