Comeon we shouldnt be relying on them to win a struggling championship sideYeah. If you leave out the quality we lack quality.
In a freak season where Leicester won the league. We didnt relied on youths today but on seasoned players who should be making the difference. For that salary and hype they should trash this struggling championship sideWell they got 5th and won the fa cup without both last season, so it was to be expected that those two should be the extra difference
Exactly.You can't expect to win tournaments without playing good teams. Excited for the draw. Let's see where we are. Cup game, could go either way.
Have you ever watched a domestic cup match before? It's never that simple, and that's hardly unique to this match, this team or our club.In a freak season where Leicester won the league.

He was being talked up a couple of years ago as a potential talent, I was surprised to see him still there to be honest.That Mahony kid is classy. Is he linked with bigger clubs?
Young, Darmian, rojo, carrick, romero, herrera, smalling....should i go on?Who are you talking about?
There should have been enough quality to beat blackburn. Theres a reason why we havent been competing for quite some time. We are not good enoughHave you ever watched a domestic cup match before? It's never that simple, and that's hardly unique to this match, this team or our club.
Sometime i wonder why we have so many internationals if they cant beat these minions without the help of the most expensive player in the world and our 36 year old strikerWe sometimes play as of we're trying to unlock Athletico Madrid rather than Blackburn.
I said at half time we should just go more direct like we did for the first goal. It took Pogba to drop a ball in behind the defenders though.
What do any of them have to do with "hype and salary"?Young, Darmian, rojo, carrick, romero, herrera, smalling....should i go on?
The midfield is the main reason for me. Without Pogba is just lacks any drive and magic. Carrick and Herrera can keep the ball, useful against a good team. Against a team that doesn't want the ball, that just needs breaking down, I don't think those two are a threat.Sometime i wonder why we have so many internationals if they cant beat these minions without the help of the most expensive player in the world and our 36 year old striker
Dont you think that this team should be able to pluck Blackburn without the need of pogba and ibra? Whats the point in paying them the money we are paying them if they need the likes of ibra to bail them out against a struggling championship side?What do any of them have to do with "hype and salary"?
I think the biggest issue is the dm role. We dont have one, shich lets the defense vilnerable and the midfield without structureThe midfield is the main reason for me.

Then if a couple of the younger players have an off game like Martial did you end up with a pretty toothless team.
So much unnecessary passing today.
I think most of them are good enough to be United squad players(probably not Darmian or Lingard), we just lack a variety of player in the middle. Maybe Pereira can mix that up next season.I think the biggest issue is the dm role. We dont have one, shich lets the defense vilnerable and the midfield without structure
We also lack quality strength in depth. Most of the players we played today are simply not MUQ
It was a rebound off keeper when the(two) player was already offside.Can someone explain why their last goal was offside? It clearly came off our player last. I thought it had to be touched by a team mate to be offside.
Take Costa & Hazard out of Chelsea and you could say the same.Its evident that we lack quality. This team is just Ibra/Pogba dependent
I can't tell you how tired I get of 'we' at certain occlusions of the moon.There should have been enough quality to beat blackburn. Theres a reason why we havent been competing for quite some time. We are not good enough
Pardon?That'll be the end of our defense of the cup.
Ha!Its evident that we lack quality. This team is just Ibra/Pogba dependent
Is the season over?Add Miki and Bailly and you have wonder why we are not where we thought we would be.
it was built like that by Mou, so no surprise. But it's good Mou understands this dependence won't let us fight for something serious. Otherwise like in many cup matches there were 2 teams with different motivations.This team is just Ibra/Pogba dependent
FFS no white text?If there's any team who can knock Chelsea's confidence, it's us. Beating them at Stamford Bridge 4-0 would definitely have an impact on them. We can do it
We fielded a side filled with players whose got experience with both club and country. Man United have, in fact, the second highest salary bill in the EPL. Do you think that we should have been able to beat Blackburn without the need of Pogba and Ibra?Take Costa & Hazard out of Chelsea and you could say the same.
