    I can't believe our main and only striker is so low on confidence that he chose to play for a penalty rather then bury his chance. This is fecking frustrating!!!!!

    Perfectly said. He's so slow and ponderous trying to get a shot off. It's happened many times already this season. Quite terrible.
     
    Now that's what you do Rooney in order to play for a foul. You put your body between the ball and the player, stop moving your legs. You don't fecking open up your body like 'here's the ball, take it!"

    One word for LVG would be - Rigid

    Not a progressive manager like SAF, making a team around some brain dead and rigid play, with players too afraid to take other players on

    Ironically, one word for our play would be - flaccid.
     
    These footballers really know how to control them self. I would actually give the ref a push if I was on the pitch.

    Edit: Rooney does not classify as a Footballer.
     
    Swansea deserve it. Hit the post before we scored too... they defended better than we attacked, they attacked better than we defended.
    Its a bit sad.. but we are toothless.
     
    So bad! Should be ashamed to play for us.

    I'm not ever arsed, Van Gaal out for someone who knows how to attack
     
    Give me a younger attack minded manager with balls to sit Rooney and Ill sit here and take the losses.....losing like this is bollocks.
     
    One match to save his career now LvG - losing against Liverpool and he needs to go. I don't Believe in his process - his process is certainly not taking us in the right direction
     
    Bringing on Carrick, Young and Fellaini when you need a goal or two really sums up how light we are in attack.
     
    Rooney and Depay should have been taken off at the 60 minute.
    Young and Felliani should have come on earlier.
    LVG must buy some strikers now.
    What a stubborn old man?
     
    The days when we would lay siege on the opponents goal in the final 10 minutes are long gone.
     
    frankly, if they shot depay with a bazooka, atkinson would wave play on...
     
    We need a striker.
     
    I have never turned it off before the final whistle but I cannot accept this hoofball. Not that it matters or anybody cares but I cannot support LVG if he wants to play like this.
     
    Smalling and Darmian are solid on the right side, Blind and Shaw are a weakness, not so much Shaw as he has alot to do offensively, but Blind is not a true CB
     
    As predicted all our weaknesses in the goalkeeper, defense, flanks and forward line will be exposed the day we meet a decent team
     
    Atkinson giving us nothing and Swansea everything.
     
    I would prefer this team (if we played the ball on the deck) except for mata or Herrera on for Rooney.
