Pathetic. Gutless. Prideless.

Good on him - and I wanted shut of him in the summer. He's worked and earned his place back in, he's probably been our best player over the last few months.In the midst of that massive turd of a performance, I do have to give Harry Maguire some credit. I had absolutely written him off and wanted him to be sold, but he has been one of our best players this season and even today was good - showed some passion too.
Incredibly disappointed that we didn't win even after us being the most in form team in the league before this game. We were also scoring a ton of goals before this. Difficult to imagine how this could happen. Maybe we were just unlucky? With so many injuries its difficult to put in a performance and I will give the manager a pass here. But honestly I thought we had turned a corner. Hopefully its just a blip and we get back to our best form like before.
Onwards and upwards!
If you watched the game and believed this, you need to get your eyes checked.I know they didn't perform well. However, I've always felt a bit for players in these instances. Newcastle had completely control and our players despite busting a lung at times, were not getting near them. Consistently busting a lung to commit to a tactical plan you don't beleive in and still getting blamed when it was clear it wasn't working. I actually think when the media blames players for lack of commitment, it inadvertently absolves the manager
nope, he defended well. He did not play football.Well, Maguire played great so at least there's that.
I agree with you,I have to get up at 4am to watch this dross and have done for many years because United are my team but I'm now out of patience with ETH's stubbornness with keep picking underperformers.I think at this point it has to be the end of the 'support them until they get going again' stage. That only works when the other party is also willing to put in the effort, and clearly that's not the case. It's not entirely new for either of them, it's happened before. We just need now to move on, hopefully ETH must surely see that now and have the fortitude to do it. Can imagine the club not being best pleased if the poster boy isn't playing, but it's for everyone's good right now. Time out, get the head straight and work out what the priorities are - if they aren't performing for the team then goodbye.
The teeny weeny flaw in all of that is that. Newcastle have an even worse injury list at the moment and the players they have injured are better than the players we have injured. Our problems are up front, where we don’t have injuries.We have injuries so we play bad. Once Martinez, Shaw, Malacia will be back, we will play excellent football. Injuries affect the way you play. Ignore Newcastle, they are irrelevant. If there were no injuries, we would have been fighting for the title and would have progresses easily to the next round of UCL.
Yeah swap Maguire for Lascelles our football would be loads better.nope, he defended well. He did not play football.
it was the type of game that suits Maguire the most. Deep defensive block, lot of players around him and in a box. He is good at blocking shots and using his big body to cover and bully attackers. Unfortunately it is a style how mediocre or worse teams use to play. Harry is not material for top team with high defensive lineGood on him - and I wanted shut of him in the summer. He's worked and earned his place back in, he's probably been our best player over the last few months.
Granted that's not saying much with the spineless bastards representing us at the moment, but I'm delighted for Maguire. Good lad.

Cant blame them. There are some posters here that genuinely believe the top red tripe i am posting lately.Surprised people aren’t seeing the satire in his posts
Sorry, but what season have you been watching? Can't have been this one, if we've been scoring a ton of goals. Or if yesterday's result was remotely surprising to you.Incredibly disappointed that we didn't win even after us being the most in form team in the league before this game.

He's taking the piss out of the happy clappers who keep making excuses and pretending it'll all be fineSorry, but what season have you been watching? Can't have been this one, if we've been scoring a ton of goals. Or if yesterday's result was remotely surprising to you.
Absolutely right.This.....it's one thing to be having a bad season but working your bollocks off, it's another to not even try.....and on 350 a week. ETH needs to grow a pair and bench him.
Yeah, because that's so immensely funny mate. Just what we need.Cant blame them. There are some posters here that genuinely believe the top red tripe i am posting lately.

Spot on. Especially priceless.Pathetic. Gutless. Prideless.
Not sure what football we can expect him to play surrounded by what he was.nope, he defended well. He did not play football.
Is this irony or you serious? AWB is AWOL all the time, so is Dalot. Shaw is a good left back but not a centre back. Maguire is not an elite CB. Worst post I have read.We have a world class defense bar Onana. How anyone can have a go at Wan B or any other defender is beyond me. Its like fighting 10 men on your own at some point you are going to get knocked out. It was Wan B vs Livramento and Gordon / Dalot vs Trippier and Almiron and Maguire + Shaw vs their whole midfield and CB's. Did the presenter say all the Newcastle players touched the ball in our box?
It was wave after wave after wave with no protection and they dealt with everything bar the goal but sht happens when you are fighting everyone. Add to the fact they have no commanding keeper behind them and sht themselves every time he comes for the ball.
Yeah, thanks, I will.Feel free to use the ignore button.
"new manager needs at least two seasons and a few transfer windows before we can judge him"Nothing left to do now but sit back and wait for the inevitable 3 losses in the next 3 and that will be it for another manager.
New guy will come in until the end of the season, there'll be zero improvement, he'll be gone, new guy in the summer, few panic buys, terrible start to the season, he'll be gone by Xmas, rinse and repeat.
Good point. Can't wait for the long transfer window and then the 4 panic buys on deadline day."new manager needs at least two seasons and a few transfer windows before we can judge him"
Hey it’s early December not April..We have a world class defense bar Onana. How anyone can have a go at Wan B or any other defender is beyond me.

You try defend against a whole team see how you do. They look AWOL but thats what it looks like when you are covering 2 men. I don't care if you had Baresi and Maldini in there they will be overrun. Should have been 5/6 nil at least. Same with Everton, Galatasaray and everyone else. The defense is holding back a fking tidal wave as much as they can.Hey it’s early December not April..
Exactly. The club wanted over £40 million for McTominay back in the summer so I’m sure they’d want well over £100 million for Rashford.I'm interested in who you think would be buying Rashford & paying him 300,000 a week.
What did Scholes say?Thanks God Scholes is absolutely laying into Rashford, that was pathetic. A 0 rating
good point. AWB played 1 vs 2 all game. Rashford didnt bother (bar 1 incidnet) to track back. Garnacho did his best but Trippier was MOTM imho. And then there is ETH with his stuborness to play 2 #8.

I've seen Bruno and Hojlund press countless times to no avail. Its easy coming out as fans and saying the players are lazy. But I can't believe for a second that United's players simply have a lower motor than other squads in Europe, as this has been a constant all season long. For me, I see a group of players chasing shadows having to carry the instructions of a manager who doesn't seem to know how to deliver them and is experimenting with an attacking plan and defensive structure he doesn't actually know how to carry out.If you watched the game and believed this, you need to get your eyes checked.
Any volunteers for a bit of backside kicking. Think there will be a long queue. How dare we drag them out on a cold snowy Saturday night to their jobs.
Calling them a team is a bit of a stretch.This Man Utd team loses away to this Newcastle team nine times out of ten. Not much to take from this game.
