United (a) post-match thread

[Sleeping_Easy]

There's no doubting the ability of these players but mentally I think they must all be shattered. The cup games is all that seems to be getting performances out of them at the minute.

If the city of last year would play the city of this year they'd hammer this bunch.

A lap of honour I heard after beating us. Strange.

Not forgetting Fernandes went over to Pep and put his finger to his lips to tell him to shut up , class. Hope Fernandes enjoys his europa game in the backwaters of Austria next week , and his fight for 4th place in the league , we will concentrate on Real Madrid and enjoy champs league qualification at Easter.
Would be nice if we drew the Rags in the FA Cup semi-final again , we know what happens in derby games when there is silverware at stake........we win.

The morning after the night before, and that was dire, too many sloppy passes, too slow and in decisive, players off their game, if we were still playing now we wouldn't of scored, can't believe that red shite have beat us 3 times this season.

 

[Dirty Harry]

Possibly the players and maybe Pep saw this game differently to the supporters.
Just wondering if Pep could let us know which games he is up for so that the loyal City supporters can decide if they can be bothered as well.

And save some of them their hard earned income at the same time.

Is it safe to come out now?

I think pep is addicted to loosing - he's just not very good at it.

Another frustration with yesterday was the attitude of our players, United were playing a derby game and we were acting like it was Derby County.

Some players need to wake up big time Newcastle may not have our talent on the pitch but they will have intensity.

Pep should have been made to watch it

 

[Jocks Y-Fronts]

Was almost speechless after that. The keepers mistakes are bad enough but the lack of effort and basics from some players is the big concern.

Zincs is nowhere near good enough - either at full back or midfield - Sterlings form is depressing, the constant passing sideways and backwards is boring and non productive and generally we are in a bad way. Watch the number of times we are 20m from goal, centre field, and pass 25m to the wings. Allowes the opposition defence the time to get 10 men behind the ball.

Whoever KDB's long term replacement will be needs to be identified now and blended into the team. Without him we have almost no forward momentum and don't create any chances.

From what Cancelo has given us this year it’s hard not to see it as 60 million thrown away, not a pop at him more at those who signed him. He clearly isn’t good enough in Peps eyes

The thread needed hours to get bigger than the thread about the game in Madrid.

Tells you a lot about the power of negativity that reigns on such forums.

This team can still win a treble this season but the moaners are in their element because a game that was less significant than SW in the FA Cup was lost against a team that has won fuck all recently and is 5th.
