Disappointing result. Just like Liverpool, you felt they were there to be had. Our attack is struggling massively, if that's not an understatement. Really bad timing to start firing blanks.
Has Fred ever been able to pass, does anyone know.They looked tired today i thought.
Plus Fred needs to sort his passing out. So many games he is just so sloppy on the ball
We’ve rotated quite a lot this season and we lost one sub due to injury in Scott, bringing martial in which took a sub option away from the strikersthis is possibly even worse than the last game. we used to come back strong from defeats, but now it's 'okay it safe and try not to lose'. but let's be honest, we've been dreadful for a while now.
We're looking now and more like the back end of last season when we were tired and scraping through games until we weren't.
Just like then, there's no rotation, no subs no changes and no ideas. we're trying the same stuff with the same people and running players into the ground.
at some point, Ole needs to give others a run out - even if we don't win, we're not winning at the moment, and giving Rashford, Fernandes etc a couple of games off might give us a long term boost.
I am. But I guess this makes me a fan with low ambitions as if my ambitions are related to United‘s success.Can’t be arsed reading the inevitable hysteria but is anyone else ok with that result?
Arsenal have finally hit some form and got some decent results. Think they’re technically most in form team in the league? I think we just about shaded the game and generally played fairly well. Which was good to see after dire midweek display. Not a bad point at the end of the day. I’ll take it.
You could include the City Carabao loss too. 0-2.Arsenal x2, City, Chelsea and Liverpool: we scored zero goals.
Zero goals in 5 games.
In the second, arse brought on William to target our right side channel. Pogba just simply wasn’t able to match their work rate, and wasn’t good in positioning as well. We should feel fortunate to get a point. Really hope Ole can realize Pogba can’t play there in some certain games. McT is a huge loss today.If Ole wants to imitate Sir Alex then he should be gambling a lot more for wins with more progressive and attacking line-ups.
Anyway, most of us would have taken this league position at the start of the season.
Definitely agree with your points about the contrast between the first and second half. We were in the right areas in that first half but too many moves broke down in the final third or we didn't make the most of the opportunities. Second was terrible. First half performance wasn't a classic from us at all and it was very slow and sloppy at times, but at least we looked like something could happen.I thought we played pretty well first half to be honest - they didn't really have any chances and we controlled the game and had the moments to score, just not clinical enough.
2nd half was absoutely shite.
Not the worst result, Arsenal were the form team coming in.
Leicester can, but pool can’t yetLiverpool will go ahead of us again now. Pathetic.
I don't think they can either and never did. Yet they should have been able to win this. They look terrified in front of goal.I don't think they believe that they can actually win the league but neither do we to be fair.
That too. In fact, other than our FA win over Liverpool and the draw with LC, we haven't shown much against these teams (not to mention the loss to Tottenham).You could include the City Carabao loss too. 0-2.
Zero goals in 6 games.
1. never said one point is good enough - only said we should have won, were the better team and had the better chances.Taken in islotion, 1 point isn't too bad a result.
But when you consider that we have scored 1 point from 6, in our last 2 league games. And also I heard the commentator say that we have won only 1 game in the last 4 league games (since hitting top spot).
We also know that MCFC are hitting top gear, now.
LCFC could win against Leeds tomorrow and if they do, they'll overtake us in the league.
Take all of this into account and you can see how bad it's looking for us.
Scored twice against Leicester whom are one of the top teams and will finish the season ahead of Arsenal. West Ham and Everton may finish the season ahead of Arsenal and United scored 6 goals against those teams this season.I think the bigger question is, will we ever score against a top team in the league ever again?
Clearly many need this drilled into their heads because pinning our hopes for the future on Grealish is not going to work. We need a right winger in the summer that should be without a question.The team is desperately lacking balance without a right-sided attacker. It's just an assumption from my side but I reckon the team is scared of losing more than going all out for a win.
The result in itself wasn't bad but after the SU game peoples frustrations are just being carried over. I actually thought todays game was pretty entertaining even if the quality wasn't there. Seen a lot worse 0-0s from us.Can’t be arsed reading the inevitable hysteria but is anyone else ok with that result?

Fernandes is jaded. Without his massive contribution, the team is not that much different - personnel or ability wise - than the one we've seen until January 2020.We're jaded. Pure and simple.
I'll take it just because Arsenal are our bogey team and its better than the defeat I expected. It predictably went the same way every recent game has against them.Can’t be arsed reading the inevitable hysteria but is anyone else ok with that result?

No, top 4 worry me now. We have to regroup to not lose ground.Not gonna win the title are we?
