I pretty much look at our games as an evaluation of who we have that's worth keeping around and who we can have hope for going forward for when we eventually sack Ten Hag, because there's no use in looking at any team/system dynamics with him in charge.

From that perspective, Garnacho even when he has an off day, still keeps going and can come up with a very good assist. Nice to see. Amad looked very good as well, and made some very good decisions to go with his obvious technique. And beat his man to take a shot quickly like a normal winger should do. So positive points there!

Shite manager and shite players. EtH needs the sack, and squad needs a massive overhaul. That's it, no "players vs manager", it's both and neither are good enough.

ETH really needs to go and we need to conduct a lot of business in the window.

Niether will happen, and we'll be well on our way to a 10th place finish.

Another false dawn. Should have known better than to expect anything today.

Too many players who have not got the desire for it. No desire to rough it up and fight for the badge. When the chips are down, everyone acts like a prima donna.

We've turned the corner so many times we're going in circles.

Lisandro, casemiro, Shaw, Maguire, lindleof, malacia, mount, Amrabat, martial, hojlund, all out.

10 different centre back pairings alone in 20 games.

Why do people expect we are going look cohesive?

Woeful, brutal, dire. We deserved nothing from that. Well done to Forest, they played well, but once again we were rank rotten. This can’t continue; we are losing half of our league games. Hard to believe.

11 lazy idiots on the pitch and a bald idiot on the sidelines. Could see this coming a mile off. They are incapable to putting in 2 good performances in a row.

Remove this clown and his coaching staff. Take half the team with you.

Rotten.

Very mixed bag of performances. Some started well and faded badly. Others were poor throughout.
Its a competitive league, cant carry players who aren't up for it.

If Antony starts another game ETH must be sacked.

DDG saves the second goal
Evans at 35 is one of our best players
Eriksen is a pussy and doesn’t get into any challenges
Glad Garnacho passed and Rashford finished
McT is terrible at stepping up and defending

Zero desire or urgency until we finally go a goal down. Taking Mainoo of is a head scratcher, the gaps suddenly opened up with McT inability to play at 6, he cant track runners, doesnt make the correct decisions in closing down.
ETH has to give up on Anthony, he offers zero threat on the right. The only positive is Amad looked tidy.

The excuse that 'there is no one else to replace him' is probably the worse reason I've heard to justify not sacking him. It's like saying the ship is sinking but there's no point jumping into the sea as you can't see any land!

We are officially the worst attacking team in the league and if that alone isn't worthy of sacking having spent £410m I'm not sure what is...maybe living 10 games in a row as losing 9 games in 19 isn't also!

Not having any options at centre forward going into this half of the season was unreal naive.

everyone knows we should have bumped martial out and signed an older forward to help when hojlund is out/needs rested.

I swear the comments after the Villa game were "with Eriksen we finally play good football" or "he's the link between midfield and attack" and now suddenly we have "a gigantic hole when Eriksen is playing" :lol:

Also, this is on Ten hag who replaced Mainoo with McT at half time. Like wtf? I could understand if he brings him around the 80th minute and we need to score one (even though he wouldn't do shite), but replacing our only DM with him was the game changer. Anyway this was a poor performance.

What is it with this club and not being able to close down runners at the edge of the box? It happened today and it’s happened consistently across managerial regimes post SAF? So frustrating.

I hate this team. For various reasons.

Too old.
Too petulant.
Too lazy.
Not good enough.
No heart.

Some players guilty of one of the above. Whilst others guilty of more

that just about covers Reguilon, Lindelof, Evans, Dalot, AWB, Varane, McT, McT (yeah twice cos he’s that shit) Bruno, Antony, Martial, Rashford, Donny, Eriksen

and it’s embarassing that there’s so much shit at our club. Just feck them off. And send ETH with them.

a new manager please. One that isn’t a dumb feck that persists with the same shit. One that can actually coach

We exist for the amusement of others. Nothing more.

How many times have we been made to endure opposition fans taking the piss?
