First time I really get to watch Mbappé and he’s not disappointing, how good he would look on our right wing...
Yeah his one Billion euro fee might stop a transfer attempt.

Hes a quality player all the same but he's never coming to United

Whose the main culprit?
Alderweireld. He's straight trash now, and has been since his injuries more than a year and a half ago. He's supposed to be the organizer and anchor of the back 4 and he's objectively one of the worst center halves in the entire league. United would have done us a HUGE HUGE HUGE favour by paying his buyout in the summer.

Honorary mention to the fullbacks, who are ... bad. It's the worst group of fullbacks of any "top" English team.

Still plenty of time for Spurs. Expect them to turn it around now with the greatest manager of all time on the sideline.

Yikes, sounds like a new backline is needed.

If your current gaffer had his way, we would have done you that favour.

How much does Son look like Ryan Mark from Apprentice? You can't unsee it. Sorry Spurs fans. Best to sell him to Liverpool now with that eye opener.

Clearly you haven't seen United's fullbacks (young, Shaw).

Oh wait, you said top team :(

Yes. Alderweireld breaking down by the time he was 30 and turning from one of the best CB's in the world to one of the worst has really hurt Spurs. Sanchez and Foyth were bought with the expectation there would be time for them to mature behind Toby + Vertonghen, but that luxury is gone.

The fullbacks have to be replaced, but everyone has known that for 2 seasons now. Rose is a ghost of what he used to be, and Walker was never replaced.

We have Wan-Bissaka though, they have issues at LB and RB.

Wretched performance from Paris. Even by United's current standards that would be deemed dire.

Been rubbish for a good while now.

Well you had Trippier, but oddly sold him and maybe thought Walker Peters would step up or Aurier would improve?

4 goals conceded by Spurs already under Mou against C level opposition too. Any hope of him not playing a tedious low block with Spurs is evaporating.
With our center halves and Dier at DM, I'm not sure how that helps. They just make so many killer mistakes in and around the box, regardless of how players are around them.
