Martial fan boys take note of this performance.

Why are you just picking out Martial though? you seen the state of Pogba etc as well? The lot of them are wank.

 

[R.N7]

Pleased for Brighton tbh.

 

[Canagel]

Cross the ball someone.

 

[TMDaines]

Its not all luck, that's a ridiculous statement to make.

Not all luck, no. We’re the fourth or fifth best team in the country though. We’re very good in a sense. But with the performance we have been putting in, you cannot continue to keep expect winning trophies and we will not pick up points in the league at the rate we have.

 

[Vanya]

Lack of movement. The spacing between the players is all wrong. all of them get in each others way and make the spaces smaller. This is all down to Mourinho and no one else. He needs to take a good hard look at himself and his methods.

 

[FerociousCorgis]

According to them Martial was the best player today...no reasoning with them.

well i mean technically he kind of has been the best outfield player...but not saying much today. His first half was much better than second though. Maybe a 4.5 overall rating but if everyone else is a 4 or lower technically a winner. Have not liked his play in second half though. He looks uninterested for sure in this half vs being lively in the first.

 

[redIndianDevil]

One of the worst games I saw ever this is
Lack of desire is absolute disgrace

No no no no it's not a lack of desire or drive. Its down to our poor pathetic and awful technique and coaching.

 

[Freak]

Losing to Brighton. Wtf.

 

[Sassy Colin]

What a load of shit

 

[lysglimt]

I just want Mourinho gone...this isn't even football.

 

[J-Stander]

Good performance lads.

 

[Antisocial]

Pleased for Brighton tbh.

Well deserved, no question the better team tonight.

 

[breakout67]

Minus Dave and Smalling, pretty much everyone else.
I watch games like this and I get why players like Likaku and Sanchez always play.

Lukaku is a donkey and Sanchez is preventing Martial from being a world class player though...

 

[Irrational.]

We are limping to second place (and we could even feck that up), but the gulf between second and first is astronomical.

 

[Wilt]

So at least we know Martial and Rashford will be bench warmers at the cup final.

 

[JohnLocke]

Absolutely you can, especially the latter. We look devoid of any overarching strategy, let alone specific tactical ploys. Who is supposed to moving where? Who is supposed to be exploiting that space?

I wanted Mourinho. I still think Mourinho should be here next season. But I also think we look undercoached as a team, as a cohesive unit, and I’m starting to struggle to reconcile that. If we win the FA Cup, we are going to be very fortunate to have won thre trophies. If we finish second, we are going to be very lucky to have done so. The performances aren’t there.

You think he just says "right lads, just go out there and doss about, don't be sharp and everyone stand still" .Nonsense.

He can pick the wrong players or the wrong formation, or whatever, but a performance this bad lands squarely at the feet of the players imo.

I don't know. I've always felt that a team's passion and intensity comes from the manager.

Partly true, but they're grown men. Team really lacks leaders out there as well though .

 

[automaticflare]

There's only so many times we can blame the players before Mourinho must start shouldering the blame. The best managers have patterned and choreographed attacks. The players know what space they're running to and where their teammates will be. We have none of that.

The plates have to pass the ball

How many times did we Give it away

Shows how good lukaku is today

 

[groovyalbert]

We have no brand of football.

 

[Andersons Dietician]

According to them Martial was the best player today...no reasoning with them.

@Murder on Zidane's Floor on a serious note what game were you guys watching? Agreed by no means has he been spectacular but first half he was clearly our best player. 2nd half he is really the only one that has been threatening but that isn’t saying much.

 

[Summit]

That one game must have been 6 months ago.

Probably his last game for us

 

[Barnslig]

94th minute and we’re passing it backwards looking for a long ball

 

[Toad]

meh.

 

[Amar__]

Have you watched this game? Rashford deserves to be nowhere near this team.

I am not watching the game tonight unfortunately, I am judging mostly by how shite Sanchez was for us so far except for two or three games.

 

[Zexstream]

This team will be lucky to win the FA Cup,

No chance of the league next year.

 

[redIndianDevil]

well i mean technically he kind of has been the best outfield player...but not saying much today. His first half was much better than second though.

When your teammates refuse to put you clear on goal there isn't much to be done.

 

[ken11]

What has Pogba done to deserve his fat paycheck this week?

 

[Mister_Stubbs]

I hate this fecking club.

 

[pseudo_canadian]

Absolutely fecking pathetic.

 

[Raw]

Dock their wages.

 

[Witchking]

Martial fan boys take note of this performance.

Yes benching a player when he was on good form and then expect to turn up when there's nothing to play for and then bench him again.

 

[Mister_Stubbs]

What has Pogba done to deserve his fat paycheck this week?

Got a new haircut.

 

[SqueakyWeasel]

Why are you just picking out Martial though? you seen the state of Pogba etc as well? The lot of them are wank.

Probably because of the screaming to start him every week

 

[peridigm]

Worst performance of season. Diabolical.

 

[Whatsername]

Another shambolic performance

 

[dwd]

I hate this fecking club.

It's not that bad!

 

[Sayros]

According to them Martial was the best player today...no reasoning with them.

And according to some of you he's been the worse, which is even more ridiculous...no reasoning with you lot either.

 

[Minimalist]

One of the worst performances of the season without a doubt.

 

[buckooo1978]

well done Brighton

much better than us

 

[Moriarty]

Pathetic. Dock the bastards a week's pay for that performance. Worse than WBA.

 

[GifLord]

They did a Double on us. fecking Brighton

 

[FootyGirl88]

The only player I feel for is De Gea

 

[McGrathsipan]

Congrats Brighton

 

[Castia]

Absolute shit show.

Happening all too often.
