United (H) Post Match Thread

Gotta agree man. Complacency kicked in. Even i thought it was over. Atmosphere was fantastic in the first 45 mins though

Going by your Twitter posts at half time you sure did. I never had the feeling it was done. Too many scars for that.

I'm specifically talking about the 2nd half.

Crowd & players came out as if it was easy. That's not bottling it, it is arrogance.

I can accept that theory, alright.
We need a bit of fight, starting Tuesday. An early goal (or two) and pedal to the metal all the way to the end. You never know, we might just pull it off. At least, if we have a hop off of them, not only will we find out if it's possible to salvage something from the wreckage* but it would go some way to making yesterday's capitulation bearable.



*we've sifted through worse wreckage, to be fair.

Pep shouldn't get a pass for tinkering before the Liverpool game, firing up Pogba before the derby, dropping some of our best players for a title winning derby game and waiting until we were losing before making any changes.

Firing Pogba up - he was useless in the first half but our defence / midfield just stood and watched him stroll through twice. I suspect that fired him up far more than Pep.

Anyhow I am not suggesting Pep couldn't have done some things differently but I repeat he did not fuck things up: any errors Pep may have mind were small ones and the absolute fact is that no one knows what would have happened if he had done things differently.

We can do it on Tues. If we avoid letting in an early goal, any total is possible in 90 mins at the other end.

Are we actually moaning at them celebrating an away derby win, coming from 2-0 down against the best team in the league? Weird bunch us

I'm still laughing at utd going to their fans and punching the air and dancing and dabbing the night away at full time.
How the mighty have fallen.

They have fallen, but how amazing was them wins for us? The Munich derby and finally winning at OT? We’d cry that united would say it’s irrelavnt because they will win the league yet we act like rags when it’s us. They’ve won the battle and we will certainly win the war but that doesn’t make yesterday acceptable or a derby defeat easier to take.

Fair do's, we'd have done the same years ago when we were the crap underdogs.

I can understand them doing that,they have come from 2 down to win a derby and prevent us from winning the league against our local rivals or postponed it for a few weeks,the players need to look at themselves as well 2 up at halftime and come out as if it’s job done shocking complacency especially in defence,and that’s not excusing the cheating cnut of a ref either ..
