is enough for me to know ETH has no clue.

70 million for Antony is enough for me to know ETH has no clue.

Making Bruno captain is enough for me to know ETH has no clue.

Feel free to add your own.

Happy new years!

For tactical reasons as well.. this manager hasn't got a clue.

He’d better be injured is all I’ll say. If not he genuinely wants sectioning.

Changed the game. No way that it was tactical. Even ETH is not that stupid. Mainoo is injured for sure.

If it’s true mainoo wasn’t injured, he should be sacked on the spot.

Just shows how poor in-game management is, as if we did need more proof that is.

It shouldn’t be a surprise. He makes baffling subs all the time

Yes it was odd, but let's just put a bit of perspective here. United are playing a shite team who have won 1 out of like 9 games, and we're pointing to the game changing moment the substitution of an 18 year old midfielder for a midfielder than has played like 200 games for United.

We are an absolute shambles. Owners, manager, coaches, players, the lot. Need to hit restart on the lot.

Mainoo was pretty quiet to be truthful but it should have been for Eriksen.

I'd give benefit of doubts. But if Mainoo wasn't injured, ETH should be sacked right away for this. No more fecking excuse.

One of the worst in-game substitutions of all time. Truly colossally moronic.

Then she sucks on my balls
Even if mainoo was injured wtf is that sub ? surely hannibal comes on for him as a defensive minded player if anything eriksen hinders us more than mainoo against pressing teams ten hag is clueless.

Hannibal as a defensive mid? I'm not sure that's his game somehow.

He's an idiot whos decisions cannot be trusted

Anymore money spent towards making a team that resembles his ideas is money wasted

Crazy decision, Mainoo was giving his standard performance, which is very good. Almost first name on teamsheet for me.

Managerial masterclass isnt it.

It's not even like we have a busy schedule so need to protect Mainoo.

Pure unfiltered idiocy in game management. Shooting yourself in the foot face for no possibility of improving the team.

Big mistake.

He has taken McT out of the team for Mainoo. So he knows it. Surprised to see him make the same mistake. Will see if he does it again.

People are barking at the wrong tree.
Not a fan of McT at all but he had much better numbers in terms of passing, interceptions, and tackles won.

He got caught sleeping for the 1st goal but so did the rest of the team

Have we conceded a pull back with Kobbie in the team? No surprise both goals come from the area he occupies quite well.

Take off the player who is most likely to be in the area where both goals are scored, rather than make a change to help him and get someone in alongside him.

Maybe take off our worst player in the first half instead Antony, who slows down everything we do and offer nothing in an attacking sense creatively.
