some of the reactions to this show there are people on here who have no business being united fans.
that said, this must be the game the coin drops for van gaal that there are simply footballers in this squad who are not good enough.
de gea didn't have a hope. no blame there.
vermijl, keane, james, janko, powell are youngsters coming to terms with a new system. i'm not going to vilify them.
evans, welbeck and januzaj were poor but are allowed an off night as all 3 are good more often than bad.
wilson and pereira were fine and did the best they could all things considered.
anderson, kagawa and particularly hernandez were awful and along with young, valencia, fellaini and cleverley are awful on a regular basis. i feel kagawa has the ability but not the confidence and can only be given so many chances.
a lot of people have spoken about the mental weakness in the squad. i think that stems from the culture that grows when poor players are given the shirt over and over and over again.
when united were mentally strong, you knew you had to perform or someone would have your shirt. if you didn't perform, you would be shown the door no matter what your name was or how much you cost.
those 7 should be told they can leave this week. if they can't find clubs then they should be training together and separately from the first team and reserve squads so they cannot continue to drag them down.
our youngsters and first team need to learn that mediocrity is not acceptable at manchester united.
