    been expecting the bubble to burst. offered nothing at Liverpool, very little at Benfica who have been thumped in early CL games and now this. very poor but I've been saying for months, we are still one possibly two world-class of attacking midfielders short. And we haven't had a decent winger for about a decade. I notice Bournemouth manged to do what we couldn't: win at Stoke. This has been coming

    Why was no time added to the four minutes for the sub? Joke.

    We wouldn't have scores though. Smalling was the chance.

    Just lost to the Dog and Duck team. Huddersfield are a team of well drilled, but pub players. They had negative GD in the Championship. Boy did we make that hard work. No intelligence out there whatsoever.

    feck this shit. Our midfield is in bits and without pogba and fellaini. People say fellaini is shit but this just shows he job he does. Mkhitaryan, Herrera and Lindelof truley are in dire form

    Has he.. Just gets in the way
    I saw him running around. Whether there was any real purpose to any of that I dunno.

    Another player who seems to be liked more for what he did before coming to United than what he actually does.

    Says it all really by the effort from huddersfield and their fans reaction that this game was played like a cup final for them.

    Lee Mason was their 12th man, but ultimately we didn't deserve to win.

    They'll lose next week after going back to normal.

    thats because for 99% they were in a different league to us. Talk about BS fecking stats
    Yes they were, why because United were better. And now we have lost to the same shite team who just came up to the premier league and had not even 1/4th of the funds United had. Wake the feck up.

    Some woeful performances. Lindelof looks like a competition winner. Mata and Mkhi again...
    Miki has had about three good games since signing. no idea why people love him and Mata is either a match-winner or nothing at all

    Game stops exactly on 94 mins even though they made a sub.

    Start of the season City had like 5 mins extra when the other team time wasted.

    No consistency!
    Read that in Trump's voice :lol:

    Crooked #fakerefs give City extra time but don't add on time for United. Sad!

    Tbf if a plater with lindeoff experience can have his confidence shattered. .. I can see why tunazebe is treated with kid glove
    Tuanzebe has played last season and shown more than Lindeof has done.

    If he was not playing in the Portuguese League I doubt we would have bought him.

    Not into locations = will not dwell
    So it was Mourinho that was responsible for professional footballs making school boys errors?
    Probably not directly but Jose isn't showing much confidence in prompting our players to attack and as a result we've been setting up too defensively. It looks to be having negative repercussions, especially comparing our past three games to those earlier on in the season.

    The one thing that plagued this team since Fergie is absolutely no fecking creativity or any sort of attacking prowess.

    Really poor that. Our lacklusterness continues in front of goal, I am very afraid that this is not title winning form.

    Joke performance from these joser(jokers). There can only either Herrera or Matic, never together. Both are defensive minded and can't create. Lindalof will probably not play another until he is mentally ready. Lingard should never set. Young?? Why is he still in Utd?

    absolute shit feast of a game , far to many of our players are just not good enough, the other did not want to know, was it the wind or the rain , who knows.
    Mikhi , Lingard , Lindelof and Mata just not good enough.

    What I hate the most about these games now is that during Ferguson days we would have been all over them in the second half and these days we don't even try.
    This has always been one of my biggest problems with Jose and his teams, no backbone when things don't go Well, which is what leads him to want to play like we did at Liverpool and what leads to the dramatic collapses after a few years imo. Let's just hope he isn't bringing the collapse forward a season.

    In the scheme of things not important but "minimum" of 4 minutes added time. Sub in stoppage time. Freekicks, ball went out of play a number of times.

    93:59

    Ref: "FULL TIME!"

    Again not the story right now but this happens so often.

    There's no doubt they've slowed the pace in the second half mate. They couldn't sustain the intensity of the first 45, the game's definitely been more stretched.
    It has at times, but they generally had enough players staying back. There were 3 defenders around Rashford when he scored.

    Nothing positive to say about Lindelof's United career so far at all. Anytime he's actually been tested he's failed. Lingard, Mata Young's last season at United I think, not just because of today either although it certainly didn't help their cause.

    We wouldn't have scored regardless. Out attacking football has been atrocious of late. Mkhitariyan and Lingard are two absolute tools who should be shipped off asap.

    THB I've never seen a performance like this before for the last few games, they all look like they finally waking up to a reality that they need to step up. Hardly lose balls and dominate in possessing. Mihki, Lingard, Matic and Rashford trying to create a chance for them to score. Huddersfield were outplayed in the second half. I've enjoyed this game, for now. Congrats for Huddersfield winning this game

    Never, never, never play Mata again in this type of games. Sell him ASAP. He is liability in the EPL. He has no balls against the brute, tough and robust players. So obvious and no United coaching or management team is aware of this. He cost United the game. Lingard should have his pay deducted as he is lazy and does not chase back. He has let his head outgrown his brain.

    I remember Herrera was too attack minded, now he can't even string a attacking play together. Ligaard is just rubbish and I don't know how he gets 100k beyond me.
