We looked SO GOOD against Exeter.

Wonder why?

 

[wolviedinho]

Questions need asked from the top here.

Cant be allowing derby performance like this.

Awful.

No one escaped criticism for this shit.

 

[FogBlueInSanFran]

It’s depressing to see the energy and the fight the rags are displaying vs. what we are showing. Being outclassed is one thing, but being outworked is another.

 

[Blue-Ghana]

awful set piece after awful set piece after awful set piece

we don't care about corners and free-kicks , whereas arsenal score 1 goal each game from set-pieces

 

[DenisLawBackHeel74]

Ok pep 20 mins to turn this around…what are you going to do?…

 

[toutmaster]

Urgency 71 mins disgrace

 

[Tolmie scores]

Incredibly poor performance so far. Doesnt look like any of them even want to win.

we just look knackered...and against a team at home in a derby who have harried us all game.... also no CB's in a game like this..Ake playing well today but very limited..all in all we are getting what we deserve today... First half corners said it all when we couldn't beat the first man..all in all we need a good rest

 

[beakykippax]

have we had a shot? have we even had a fucking run at them???

 

[Mr HJ]

There is still time but this is what you get from giving them a first half where they gained confidence and we didn't stamp ourselves on the game.

Another thought - Erling being bullied by inferior centre backs for the 3rd game in a row. How can a forward make slap head look so good? They are winning every 50/50 now which is not good.

 

[YatesA]

Just more effort from utd

 

[sh249]

For me it's the lack of fight and passion. We've been way to soft for a derby

Everything mate. Outthought, outfought, outplayed.

 

[Bill Walker]

BBC will be creaming themselves

 

[jollylescott]

Get Haaland off for Reijnders... level of performance he's putting out wouldnt be tolerated if it were any other player

Yep. He should have come off at half time. He's done nothing

 

[Nas_City]

Khus should have trusted Silva on Fernandez.

 

[youngbob]

Doku has had an HOUR against Dalot on a yellow card and hasn't taken him on once. Disgraceful. All his good work from earlier in the season is being undone fast. Should not be ahead of Marmoush when Afcon is over.

 

[glyntowen]

Has to be one of the worst performances in 10 years
Nothing up front or from midfield, just slow side to side going nowhere

Games like this make me less worried about pep leaving as I start to think what we would be like with a different manager who doesn't pull games like this every now and then

 

[Bluemoonie92]

Once again, what's the point with all these attackers if we just pass around at the back all game. Boring once again. Out fought again.

 

[city5189]

Why are we so slow in anything,free kick then it took a minute to set up,funking get on with it ffs

 

[Doc_Testosterone]

O’Reilly has been a terrible substitution.

 

[BluestBlue]

This needs to be his final season

Can’t be arsed anymore man. Just win the domestic cups
