Valencia did us a favour in that match. If they were even half decent they would have beat us there.

Egypt.
We had to win this game. I don't know why Jose played both Matic and Fellaini till the end while we needed some speed at the midfield at least for the last half an hour!

Rashford, Lukaku and Sanchez are fecking shit.

Why bother post this then?

fecking atrocious performance. Can’t bin all the players so goodbye Jose! Terrible mix and now toxic.
Do you know what a silent protest is, as opposed to remaining silent?

Positives: clean sheet (but we almost fecked that up several times too, and if Valencia weren't as equally incompetent as us in attack we would've been beaten).

Negatives: everything else.

Winless at OT since September? So uninspiring and never ever felt like we'd score tonight.

Shambolic attacking performance again. Barely a chance created in 90 minutes with the best effort coming from a Rashford cross shot off a free kick.

I've defended Lukaku as well, but the fact he is undroppable is ridiculous.

That’s about as good as you can hope for from a team desperate to get the manager sacked.

Jesus Christ and I actually put some money on us winning this game, what an optimistic moron I am.

We were lucky Valencia were atrocious with their final third product.

It didn't look to me like the players weren't trying, at all. But most of them looked really poor. Matic is in bad form. How many times does Lukaku time his jumps right when fighting for a header? I know he's not a target man, despite his frame, but the misunderstanding of where the ball will drop is just beyond anything I've seen.

Shaw and Smalling were the most decent outfield players IMV.

Mourinho resorting to safety first again... Fellaini, Matic, Valencia.
No Fred, Pereira, Herrera when only using 1 sub.
0-0 was the best it could ever have been - but he will probably be perversely satisfied with that !
Get this clown out.

Lukaku has gone from being woeful in front of goal but at least he tries, to whatever the feck that was. Just awful.

People rag on Pogba, but he at least tried to make things happen. The thought of that team without him is truly scary.

Looks like there was a bit (only a bit) of effort tonight but that's because it was the CL, the only competition we still have a chance of winning. Shaw once again was great. Pogba was alright as was Bailly. Everyone else just didn't look bothered. Also can we please take Rashford off of corners.

A half decent side could've put 4 or 5 past Valencia tonight. This is getting desperate.

When we've played soo bad and that passes as a decent performance.

It's depressing.

Trump & Alt-right are a more entertaining right wing combo than Sanchez & Valencia

Why is Fellaini playing at home in Europe. There’s no aerial threat defensively, so unless we’re going to go long and use him upfront what is the point.

Slowest midfield ever. Matic and Fellaini are destroying souls. No wonder we don't even attempt pressing. We simply can't.
