    This is so bad that it's hard to pinpoint exactly what is wrong. Attitude, quality, everything is dreadful.

    Just hope we can make 11 points this season. Big ask but just got to keep pushing.

    No one was good. Another poor half. Deserve nothing.

    Martial, Antony and maybe Eriksen need to come on.. we need width.. we need the creativity.. and Martial just to change things up because Rashford/Hojlund arent working so far.

    Big 45 min coming. We will see if ETH still have the team
    Really feel he has to make a statement and drop a couple of the big names. It’s getting to the point where it’s him or them, the fans will rally behind the manager if we make subs and come out with fight in us.

    Its no longer even surprising. Start okay, some bright spots, make a defensive howler, opposition scores with their first real attack. Toil. Seen this enough to expect it now. Team's in a bit of a spiral. We concede goals nobody else does.

    The problem is not with the manager. All eleven players are as good as shit. Get the Qataris in. We need 11 new players.

    Because Bruno is worse in the middle. Zero composure. Take off Case, Rashford and Bruno at HT and watch this team level instantly go up.
    Bruno is much better in his natural position than he is forced out wide. He's completely ineffective.

    Don’t worry lads, Ten Hag just needs patience and it’s all going to magically turn around! We mustn’t forget there aren’t any alternative managers in all of Europe for the first time in history.

    Madness is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. Its the SAME players underperforming every single time and none of them are getting dropped. What is the point of amanager if he can't make big decisions?

    Take Casemiro and Onana off at half time. It's not acceptable at all.

    Untenable situation for Onana now. He's completely lost the plot and immediate substitution is required.

    It's unfortunate and no one wants ETH to fail but if we don't win this he should be gone during the international break.

    It's shit but it is what it is
    I'm ETH in, but he cannot just carry on picking underperforming players, who are constantly... underperforming and losing us games.

    If he cannot show flexibility, the claims of bias from the squad players who never get their go will be valid.

    He's going down with his ship at the moment and not even trying to bail the water out.

    I agree but at the same time you figure some of these games, Galatasaray, Brentford, those are games that should be comfortable wins and confidence builders. But here we are.
    Entire team has been out of sorts since January and Im never confident of the win atm, even if we do it’ll be hard fought, frustrating and likely undeserved. Out of a 50/60 game season, how many games are a “gimme” for United these days? That’s the problem, no team fear us and why should they

    Players and manager have to take the blame, but end of the day they can’t sack a team (as much as we all want it to happen)

    These players look like they are playing for the manager?
