If he had added "and sometimes they are shite" he'd have been spot on.

Tonight, we were world class. Against Chelsea, we were average. So, I'm not going to disagree with him.

We've got it in us to be better, but consistency is a problem. I wonder what he's feeling after the game. Average teams don't win games like we did tonight. :lol:

I see no lies, you can see it in opponents during games; if we start well many succumb but when we labour early their confidence grows.

We've actually been very good and consistent since the restart. Not many sides are world class in this environment anyway.

That bits kind of a fair assessment. It''s missing the best part of his quote though

"What I've seen from Manchester United so far: sometimes they're world class, sometimes they're average. We don't have to hide"

Bet they're wishing they had now :lol:

Tbf, if that came earlier in the season when we were playing poorly then it's a slightly more diplomatic thing to say, because at that point everyone is very aware of the "average" part.

Plus it's absolutely true.

Doesn't this apply for most teams? Actually a bit flattering as most don't reach world class

Our last week has perfectly exemplified this.

Great. A bit shit. Great.
Today you were a lot shit, a bit shit, very good, kinda shit and great all in 90 minutes.

Hassenhuttl said something similar. It’s what happens when you have some very good players, some pretty poor players, and a not very good manager.

I didn't see great unless you meant greatly shit.
I thought you were very good last 10-15 minutes, pushed right up and kind of laid on a siege. I know some of that was Leipzig doing a Leipzig but I though you were good after the peno.

We were. Which makes it all the more galling that we set up so negatively to begin with.

Sometimes Manchester United have good moments... Bruno sometimes does something world class but Manchester United usually is quite shit...
