You can always tell the people who have never kicked a ball in their life

Agree.

 

[Heinzesight]

Confident we will win at home. All things considered a draw today isn't too bad.

We will. Sociedad are poor and even we will finish them off.

 

[redzombie]

You can tell that this lot miss the toilet bowl every time they go for a piss.

this lot sit to pee

 

[Dannn411]

If he kept Garnacho on, we would have won this game. That substitution was the signal of surrender.

 

[pocco]

I think the players are gassed, we badly need some numbers back. We seem to be fading later on in games, but it’s understandable given the situation.

 

[Superunknown]

this lot sit to pee

And still miss.

 

[VP89]

We're very weak mentally - you just knew that would break them. I do think the bigger issue was taking off Garnacho as we lost all attacking thrust.

I thought garnacho was pretty shit anyway.

 

[C3Pique]

There is absolutely zero redeeming qualities about this team, manager included. Bullied by Spanish dross, brainfarts and self destruction. No quality, no effort, no fecking fight.

Shite shite shite.

 

[Devil81]

Threw that away really. We should be talking about a decent 2 or 3 nil advantage but now we face them with Zubemendi back.

I'm expecting a difficult night next week.

 

[Glorio]

I thought garnacho was pretty shit anyway.

He was, but he's the only player with pace

 

[criticalanalysis]

He was, but he's the only player with pace

He doesn't though. He can only run in open space on the break, hence the goal. One good (routine) pass aside, he messed up 3-5 good shoot opportunities, dribbled into trouble nearly every time and wasn't getting goal side when defending.

Keeping him on is basically gambling with a turnover machine in the latter stages of the game for the sake of 'attacking/pace' and asking to be punished.

 

[giggslover]

Positives(?):

-No yellow card for Casemiro, he was in danger I think
-Collyer back, got some time, will help him get back to game speed
-Didn't get blown out, chance for 1 or 2 players to come back in time for next week
-Spurs lost
-No apparent injuries
-One of our forwards actually scored
-STILL undefeated in this competition

 

[VP89]

He was, but he's the only player with pace

He has pace but it means nothing when he's making the wrong decision 80% of the time. There was a good argument to put someone stable on the ball on when Sociedad were pushing with momentum.

I think Dorgu, casemiro and Bruno were super careless after the penalty.

 

[NZT-One]

@ Mods, shouldn't somebody turn off the livegame and open the post-game "phase"?

 

[Big Andy]

Everyone buzzing with a draw but I think that was a shocking performance again. Very little going forward, light in midfield, poor passing, no penetration and could’ve lost it at the end.

 

[klayton88]

Please open the performance threads so I can slate the lot of them.

 

[KrasHammerhand]

We faced a little pressure after the penalty, we could have easily lost this 3-1. Overall poor performance,

this lot sit to pee

I live in a house with women. It's easier to just sit and pee than risk the wrath of the toilet seat police.

 

[DRJosh]

I felt this game needed a resurgent Antony back to add a bit more zest to our attacking play but chances of us getting that are slim

 

[Handsome Devil]

Thought you lived on a ledge.

 

[Houdini]

Why the feck are they defending Dalot being an idiot? Højlund is actually a good finisher.

Nope. He’s gone backwards.

Not sure if thats irony

 

[Houdini]

Confident we will win at home. All things considered a draw today isn't too bad.

Because Old Trafford is a fortress this season.

 

[Unam333]

Because Old Trafford is a fortress this season.

I've seen enough of Real Sociedad. They are utter awful. We will win.

 

[thisisnottaken1]

Not sure if thats irony

Nope. It’s a fact.

 

[NewGlory]

Said it since te beginning of the season, we are destroying his confidence, and probably his career.

With all due respect, I've heard this "destroying confidence" crap too many times about United players and at this point I am convinced you can only destroy confidence of somebody who didn't have much to begin with.

He is a millionaire pro athlete, not a kindergarten kid, for crying out loud. So sick and tired of treating these man children with baby gloves.

How exactly is Amorim destroying his confidence? Same Amorim who built a win-it-all team at Sporting, with a lot of young players? Nothing is good enough for the spoiled brats we have recruited at United

 

[NLunited]

We could have won that: the bs penalty gave them momentum.

I‘m pleased with the performance: we looked better. It is good to see them getting the ball forward faster.

Much better from Zirkzee as well. And Højlund, he needs better service (I‘m looking at you Diogo).

We should win this at home; if the pressure isn‘t too much for our young players. This game will give them confidence.

 

[Nobby style]

2nd season finished 2nd place nine points off Liverpool, 3rd season finished 11th and 4th season finished 13th but won the FA Cup which set the ball rolling for future success.

Could you imagine the drama queen explosion over a manager in his 4th year finishing 13th?????

 

[SuperiorXI]

@ Mods, shouldn't somebody turn off the livegame and open the post-game "phase"?

Grass

 

[always_hoping]

Could you imagine the drama queen explosion over a manager in his 4th year finishing 13th?????

Yeah with so called supporters nowadays who are so social media influenced turning on the manager refusing to see or give time to the rebuilding job they are undertaking.

 

[NZT-One]

Grass

What does that mean?

 

[Cathy Ferguson]

Could you imagine the drama queen explosion over a manager in his 4th year finishing 13th?????

A manager who at Aberdeen beat Real Madrid in a European final.

 

[Nobby style]

A manager who at Aberdeen beat Real Madrid in a European final.

Amorim throttled an arguably better Man City side with an arguably worse Sporting side, and the drama queens are already out for blood in his first few months. Just imagine four years down the line and a 13th place finish. Mebbe if Ruben had his Mark Robbins to save him . . .
