United (A) | PL | Post Match Thread

if Doku stays down and gets treatment that yellow gets changed to red. You know VAR must have been told to be quick today so we needed to manufacture time for them to review in that case.
 
Awful performance from the team, I assume Khus was our only right footed centre half so had to play there which meant Rico had to play at right back but he was tortured by their pace. Was a red card in my view far too high to not be but they were much the better side. Hopefully it wakes some of the current passengers up
 
I can never understand how so many on here get giddy with pre-match predictions for us at the swamp. Those bastards always raise their game against us and we fall for it frequently.

I make no apologies for being one of those who voted for a defeat.
This I didn’t vote but said I wouldn’t be surprised if they beat us I keep going on about it they have nothing else all season bar the game against the red scousers they rose to the occasion got their reward a win,but beating City doesn’t guarantee you anything bar the 3 points,they had their day we were awful it can happen let’s move on a big game Tuesday early evening..
 
Not too surprising, our games have been open for the entire season. I don't think the team is good enough to win a CL either . I would take a League Cup or FA cup
 
2 goals, 3 offside goals, 2 off the post and 3 great saves. Absolutely dominant performance from United, since Van Gaal's 4-2 win. That ends the title race, but we can still compete in the other trophies.
Yep they should have had ten! Think we know a song about that don’t we! We were lucky as fuck today we didn’t get COMPLETELY humiliated!
 
Does anyone believe that if Pep started O'Reilly instead of Lewis, Cherki instead of Foden etc. that the result would have been different? Cos I don't.
Just look at the second goal again Lewis once again fast asleep at the far post, not even expecting a cross to come in. I get what you are saying because the entire team was poor but for me the game was lost by our slow start allowing them to dominate. They became confident and at any level that is always the difference.

As for Phil we buy the best counter attacking wide player in the division and have the best centre forward yet fail to pass to them early enough to go at Utd today. Our play with the starting 11 was boring and predictable and that is on Pep's decision and ultimately why we lost. Yes they didn't score in the first half but the die was cast for a truly awful performance.
 
As per my post on the pre match thread, we've got a huge defensive weakness behind our left flank.

Chelsea scored, Newcastle should have scored, and Diallo was always going to exploit Ake's lack of pace and O'Reilly's lack of a right foot
 
What have we been doing in training in prep for this game as we played like a side that had only just met each other. We didn’t look like a side that was trying to win the league whatsoever. Christ I wish we had Dave, Yaya and Vinny!. I never blame Pep but i’m struggling to defend him after this.
