    And yet another draw.
    3 draws in a row. And lets not forget we lost in the league cup, too.

    Either we are very tired or the morale is low. You would swear we were playing Bayern Munich. Jesus christ.

    Just not enough quality today.
    Dreadful game.
    Another poor Christmas!

    Mata Lingard Mykytarin hope all are shipped out as soon as possible and take Darmain Blind Rojo and Herrera with you fed up all this averageness. We are never going to be top dogs with these guys time to accept it and move on and rebuild. Doesn’t hurt anymore to any these guys.
    Once again I thought Lingard was one of very few players who gave his all.

    Well that was a poor second half. We really never looked like scoring, and it looks like we have no idea how to unlock a defence or come up with any sort of plan B.

    Drawing at home to a Southampton side that has been awful of late. Add that to two other draws and it has been a shambolic festive period for us. Not good enough.

    Anything positive about the start of our season has been destroyed by our recent form. Honestly think we'll drop out of the top 4 at this moment in time. We have zero threat and opponents look more confident against us than against any other top 6 side.

    Too many players happy to get the money. The vast majority don't give a shit about United or the fans.

    I don't care if we score in the 93 minute - I just want Mourinho and his "football" gone. After 18 months I still have NO clue what kind of football he wants us to play. He spends tons of Money and still can't make them even halfway look like a team. This is just not acceptable. Against Burnley and Leicester at least we deserved to win - against Southampton we don't even seem to care.
    This. I still don't understand what type of football we are trying to play. Under LvG we were trying to keep possession, it's becoming just like Moyes football, nobody knows what the feck is going on. All our attackers are not in their natural positions, it looks like 11 guys meeting on the pitch for the first time and trying to play football.

    I hate to do this but as a team we deserve a 2/10 as it is that bad from a team performance perspective. We played a poor team at home and looked really really bad.

    Wake up he’s a million miles off what we need as a starter. Fed up listening to this shite he’s this and that he’s stone average at best. Couldn’t care if he’s home grown he is guilty of being one of the average players we need to get better.

    To be fair, it was a day for the underdog today. With all the weird results flying in today, I just knew we were not going to get a result.

    I cannot recall to be absolutely honest with you mate.

    But I do know that this performance tonight has been diabolical in every sence of the word. Worst game of the season for me.
    Then it suggests our poor rum of form has been going on longer than post City.

    Matic and Pogba need another WC midfielder next to them allowing Pogba to move forward. Plus our transition from midfield is non existent when Pogba is so far deep. And the attack is totally dysfunctional, no idea how to build an attack or how to keep the ball in the final third. All we do is whip in crosses ffs, and we have 1-2 players in the box, and half the oppositions team is in the box ffs

    Jose is toast. He doesn't have any other mode at this point than meltdown. I just hoped he would have won the league before it came.

    We'll be out of top 4, knocked out of CL, and season over by February. Mou will be out on his arse winghing about City spending and off to PSG.

    Crap overall. As a team we are totally off form. Lack of good tactics is showing, but main reason is low team confidence at the moment. If Mourinho can't turn it around he needs to go. Should be given the season no doubt, but we are starting to see Mourinho meltdown signs at the moment. I am not sure he can deal with Pep running away with it and it is making him go mad.

    What's happening behind the scenes here? I've honestly never seen anything as bad as today. Maybe that away game vs olympiakos? But honestly it looks like at least 5 of those players don't want to be there. Also our management have no ideas.

    No I don't have. I don't even mind if we finish 5th or 6th, I just want to see some improvement since SAF left and there isn't any.
    Fair enough. I'm a self confressed Jose fanboy, but I see your point tbh.
    Ideally I want him to have more time / money to shape the squad, but I do understand he's had ample (of time and money) thus far!

    Mourinho meltdown I fear. 3-4 times before us we have seen things like this. A frustrated, angry and moody Mourinho behind the scenes sure don't bring up the confidence and he is not the best at turning himself around to lift the team with him.

    Hardly been on it the last few weeks.

    But we are truly dire though at the moment. As a new year resolution, I hope I worry less about football. There must be more to life than this.
    I spend more time reading the CE forum and Other sports than threads about the club. Well at least I have an excuse to drink.
