United (H) Post Match Thread

Yates said:
Aw, it would be embarrassing for a lot of teams in this league if we had Messi man. United would have definitely been out of sight. Neymar is a no go so I just hope one of the young lads step up or we will have to splash a lot of cash to get someone in who can be relied upon in high leverage moments.

P.s Messi Hat-Trick

Outside of neymar and Messi (who are no go's) who do you think would be an upgrade on Sergio

Strange as it sounds weeks like this will be the making of our club, you learn a hell of a lot more from defeat than you do in a comfy 4-0 win.

The game against Liverpool was more disappointing than this one.

But they didn’t learn from Liverpool which was 3 days earlier. Didn’t learn a fucking thing with that capitulation.
 
Two capitulations in one week is enough. Pep should have shuffled the pack sooner but waited again to react! Excellent come back by United, and I say it with gritted teeth. We threw it away and showed the world how weak we are when the game is tough. Sorry pep you did shit today with your team line up and subs. Roll on Tuesday and just wish the gamble was worth it...

The only thing I thought Pep did wrong was in not making the changes at half time. It was obviously a tired side, and by the time the changes were made, the game was gone

I expected he would bring on one of Jesus or Aguero, and possibly KDB for Silva.

As it is we are absolutely miles ahead of Utd, and that showed today. Overall, we should be very happy with where we're heading as a football club

Let's get this title won and then enjoy the Summer and make next season even better. After Liverpool, I just really want this season to end now.

So at 2 nil and coasting at half time, where it should have been 5, you'd have 'made changes'

Right then.

Handball had to be a pen, would have been a tap in. Oh wait, wasn’t it Sterling? Correction, would have been a goal kick. Second correction - might have been a throw in.

Third it could have gone through is legs and the scum scored on the break. I’m annoyed with sterling but also want to give him a man hug

The handball has to be deliberate and their is a proviso that if the arm is in an unnatural position that can be classed as( such as making your arms wide anticipating a cross)

Slipping over and trying to head the ball but missing and it hitting your outstretched arm is a bloody huge grey area unless you can prove young slipped and in that fraction of a second he thought I will stretch my arm out just in case I miss it with my head.

Is an outstretched arm natural when you slip? That is the only question

It is if you move it to coincide with the travel of the ball!

Pep and the players let the fans down today ffs.

The players did mate. Yes we rested several players but we were 2 - 0 up. The players blew it and they owe Pep and the fans a big apology. Gundogan's Instagram post doesn't really reflect quite how much they fucked it up today.

That being said we were robbed of two of the most blatant penalties you'll ever see. If Kompany hadn't scored that should have been a penalty for shirt tugging.
 
Please will you all just fuck off with your excuses.We were dog shit in that second half and don`t lets get away from the fact that our Manager dropped a bollock in not playing KDB from the onset and as much as I love Sterling his finishing was fucking bobbins tonight ... another reason for our defeat.
Them twats were there for the taking and we fucking bottled it ... again.

ref mistakes are part of the vast majority of games...

every time we lose we get the same arguments- its the ref's fault....yes he made mistakes today but to say its sole down that stops us learning from the mistakes we made....Pep said as much in his post math presser...refused to blame the ref, said we weren't good enough in the boxes....what he wont say is that it was partly his team selection that led to that.

Nobody says its only the referee at fault or the team couldn't play better

But it's thin margins. When we are playing Liverpool and Manure, the two best teams behind us in the league, we aren't going to win 10-0

Against Liverpool a couple of wrong calls (offside, penalty) converted what was potentially a 2-1 to a 3-0

Today we played brilliantly but missed chances. Fine, but may well have been 3-0 at half time, and even if that handball was not given the penalty / red card against Young was nailed on. That would be 3-3 with ten minutes to go against ten men.

Well let’s hope we do. Because for me half our fans don’t give a fuck about the CL and don’t turn up for those games. Tuesday will be full of tourists. Today was full of people who have been going for 40 years plus and we fucked it up on our big day in the eyes of many!

Indeed.

Unfortunately you'll never grow into an international plc, because that's what it is, and manage to keep the majority of your supporters local.

Unfortunately this isn't 1995 anymore and many fans will be priced out. Some already have.

The champions league is big business for this football club.

The team line up saw us put in one of the best first halves of the season.

I'd like to know what was said at half time because they came out and played like it was done and going through the motions. Even at 2-2 with 30 minutes to go. Plenty of time to reassert ourselves. That's where the inquest should start.

But you don't understand mate. in the 75th minute we should have had a throw in that would have changed the whole result!!!! We woz robbed!

Cant be next week now.

Will a loss at spurs fuck anything up?
Click to expand...
Just done some maths. Today just delays it probably by 3 weeks. If we win at spurs it'll be ours if Utd lose which they wont. If we draw or lose it'll then not be swansea home as they will probably get 3 points at Bournemouth. So weekend after at West ham if we win we are champions.
