United (A) | Post Match Thread

In hindsight all the players should have turned and held their hands up for offside and walked.. as I think it would have been blown there and then as he was so far off and Bruno wasn’t in the picture.

We were actually punished for playing to the whisle. Absolute joke.
 
In a way, today was a result of how City as a football club deal with their responsibilities. Look at the debacle of away fans being allowed to pelt stuff at our fans then consider it’s reported our fans were kettled today and not even allowed to go for a piss. Consider the whole legacy fan treatment with the ESL debacle. Then consider the club is run from far away with those pulling the strings in Manchester having little connection to the local area outside it’s a job. Consider our players getting kicked to fuck each game, then look at Pep being hounded by the media. Maybe the decision makers at City are pleased we aren’t running away with it, it’s their product as much as the rags and dippers. When we get slandered who does the club put up to shoot it down? No one. Who at the club manages our relationship with PiGMOL? I assume it’s all “welcome Mr Atwell, Oliver, etc etc would you like a nice cup of tea?” instead of ” you better not pull any shit today or we’ll have you!”. What I’m getting at is, if the club don’t give a fuck, don’t support us as fans, allow our manager and players to get shit on, why should we bother our arses?

Totally mate! I love our club but I can only be honest about what I see on the pitch and how I feel about it….Better that imo than being deluded and getting upset with everyone with something negative to say! Being honest I’ve only seen a few times this season where we have played at anywhere near our usual level. Hopefully Thursday will be the turning point and not another false dawn.

Weirdly, it's a foul, as the law clearly states it occurs before the offside even if the offside player was intending to play the ball

I'd say you couldn't make it up but whenever created the latest laws obviously did!

The linesman gave the offside before any foul could be attempted.

This isnt a situation that has happened over night,our football has become increasingly boring and predictable over a period of some time.

Officiating could have been very different today,but ultimately we were shite......and that was the issue,despite your need to find an excuse.

so,how long do we leave it in your blue blinkered world?

100% agree, I posted last week & got a few on my back but not arsed

Our football from October has been average at best only the big fellow has kept us at the top end

When he doesn't score we don't win

Hes been a passenger in games pre & post Christmas only Leeds away have we been ok maybe 1st half v Chelsea in the cup.

We have had to manny big players sulking, not happy or not bothering

To many out of form & a few just want out imo

Big decisions to make going fwd, Phil is miles off being 1st choice imo & Cancelo although better today has also been shite

We couldn't pass 10 yards v Southampton & 1st half today our passing in the last 3rd was terrible

Why the fuck Alvarez wasn't used is mental

Eddy great save after nearly throwing it away

We need to get back on it or its curtains
 
I would like the club to publicly ask the FA for an explanation as to why it was given and also why the referee changed his mind?

It won’t change the result, but being in the public eye, means it could put a lid on manufacturing results for a few months at least.
 
It's been five hours and I'm still fuming with that shite performance.

I'm not going to pretend I know the answers but I couldn't give a shit if I don't see any of them for the next few weeks. Fuck them all off.

The baby can fuck right off with the bath water, as far as I'm concerned.
 
Thought we had it in bag after greelish scored,was a horrible place to be old trafford when that 2nd went in ,i think united wernt good they just did shitbag tactics all defended and offfd it to left wing to rashford ,simlar to when ole was in charge,9 times out of 10 they wont get away with it,was worst decision ive seen this season that today in such a big game,still furious bout it now,it was blatently offside an play shud not be allowed to go on and certainly not fuckin score are they aving a fuckin laugh,what i dont understand is,why are we not doing or even attempting thru balls,they were on at least 3 times today for haaland,even just play it in and haaland will get about them and put them under it,instead was so slow,but we didnt attempt once in whole game to play thru,we did enough today and controled the game,that horrendos error gifted them the game,it was so fuckin poor,but theres not a thing we can do about it,teams have sussed us out a bit its blatent to see,if they sit in enough we will go forward an they can counter,it is painfull tho,if anything i actually feel sorry for haaland as were literally not givin him the service,something i never thought idd say as we normally create shitloads,think were just in a shit moment and its going to take a while

The worrying thing for me is what feels like the lack of proper leaders in this team. I miss Kompany, yaya and silva. I like you don't think we'll win league and will be fighting for top four. It feels like a 2015/16/17 type season.
 
Any blue who fucking thinks that we 'deserved" what we got needs to give their heads a wobble.

Without that scandalous decision we win the game. Fucking comfortable then comes the shit show from the officials.

Even the rags next to us in E230 didn't go up for the goal.

Fucking robbed, absolutely fucking shafted.

Up the fucking Blues.

We got royally shafted.

Okay let’s say we did, it’s 1-1. Now what’s the mentality, angry, that the goal was given against you? If so you go again and win the game. Lack of mentality, you feel sorry for yourself and lose the game. Game management you play for the draw. Not withstanding the decision you have the mentality to play the game out. No leaders and mentality cost us this game.

Nail on head! We need Dias back on the pitch as he has those leadership qualities…. I know he’s not been great this season but he is a natural leader!
 
Still fuming tbh we were in complete control till the equaliser. Yes we've not been at our best but away to an in form team who basically defended and hit it long (so much for the utd way) it was always gonna be tight. Have to admit it was like playing with 10 men with Haarland today. Very frustrating when I remember pep saying Sergio wasn't doing enough when he first came. Alverez should have come on. Don't forget how far we've come though. Rough patch atm but if you don't trust in Pep your a fool imo.

I agree we need the players to step up but we did win the league 2 seasons in a row with pretty much the same players. They can’t go from champions to chumps in that space of time. The fans have got spoiled winning consistently under Pep. Time to batten down the hatches until we return to form.

Nothing wrong with them apart from a collective drop in mental form. No one is to blame if anything they are a product of having so much success.
