    Dire, dire stuff. Win or lose, there is no way Ole should be in a job by the end of this game. Fecking amateurish.

    The longer he's here the more harm he's doing to his legendary reputation as a player. He's not a manager, he never was.

    I dont think hes that good at them to be honest. Its more than he's good at holding his ground and winning the ball in some fashion, than being good at accurately heading the ball with power
    He is incredibly good at winning headers... Not great at putting direction on the header once won

    I remember for England in world cup he would win the header from 2 or 3 corners a game.... be pure luck if one went towards the goal but I had never seen anyone win them so consistently

    With that Maguire miss we will keep seeing the Ole’s supporters argument “if we had scored those penalties, didn't missed that one Maguire chance and De Gea didnt made that mistake we would be in top 4, its not Ole its the players”

    Do you think Ashley Young realises that opposition teams deliberately let him have the ball as much as possible?

    Imagine Vidic getting that Maguire chance. Only cost 10 times less than Harry too.

    I do genuinely wonder what's wrong with Rashford.
    He always had hard work and constant running on his side. He seems to have lost that too. In that passage of play when the Newcastle defender header over his own bar, Rashford had so much time to get in the box to make something happen and he just jogged aimlessly towards the box.

    I’m honestly thinking we could end up in a relegation battle. I have been a fan since the 70’s and I’m struggling to remember a United squad so bad

    I’m sure it’s not that bad but it sure feels like it.

    I could cry at how far we have fallen
    If you can’t score goals then you’re in real trouble in the league.

    Martial and Pogba being fit makes a huge difference but that puts you on the level of lower mid-table team who have players that elevate them.

    The lack of options is insane at our club. It’s a dereliction of duty to sell Fellaini, lose Herrera, loan Sanchez and sell Lukaku without replacing them with senior proven footballers.

    The likes of Greenwood, Gomes, Chong and even James should have been trying to displace a first team player to get minutes.

    I think we should hire a manager who is good next time. Like city and Liverpool did. Why don’t we do that?

    This team does not like it is interested in winning. Most of them don't care what they do on the pitch.

    That Maguire chance shows how little confidence you have. Would have banged that in if he was playing for England/Leicester.
    Absolutly this.

    Rashford looks shot to pieces and he is our main striker. I honestly cannot see where the goals are going to come from.

    Blaming Rashford when our entire midfield doesn’t offer anything going forward. Has the ball even been played into him?

    Do you think open goal misses shouldn't be mentioned in analysis of games if it weakens a sack the manager argument ?
    the fact is, every team misses sitters, but better teams create more to cover for that while teams like us just sit and use that as an excuse for the team and the manager

    Been a fan since I remember, born in '77 so I remember the pre-SAF days. I've never seen a United team play like this - bereft of any redeeming features and making Newcastle look like Barcelona. Utter Dross. Makes me so so sad to see. :(
    I don't think we've been great but they aren't looking anything like Barcalona. We were ok in the last five minutes, and should have scored off a corner (!) towards the end.

    It's not been good for the most part, but that's where we are at the moment, a poor team bereft of any confidence.
