Managing to score so late and then concede such a simple goal was truly pathetic.

We didn't even deserve the point though, so can't even really feel angry about it

Would rather see a youngster get given playing time over seeing AWB play again.

Glad they won't make the CL - because I don't want them to be utterly embarrassed again the group stages to show the world how they're even more shite than some tiny club who was a champ in a small European country.

Total & utter embarrassment of a performance from what's supposed to be a United team, fecking laughing stock.

On the one hand, a win would have been about as deserved as a Nobel Peace prize for Putin. Or ISIS.

On the other hand... how many times this season did we concede right after scoring? It feels like every second week. Dropping points after taking the lead in the 96th minute is fecking amateurish.
 

Irrational.

Absolutely disgusting. We are beyond a laughing stock and are lucky to get the draw. 3 or 4-1 to Brentford would’ve flattered us.

Might be an all-timer that performance. Genuinely can't remember being embarrassed to come away with a point this much before

I felt embarrassed when we got the late winner. I felt pissed off when we conceded immediately after it.
I was literally just laughing. It's something out of a comedy play at this point.

Worst manager and group of players we've had in the last decade by far.

Disappointing result.

Embarrassing performance.

But at least we didn't get hammered, so that's progress I suppose.

Any faint hope of CL football next season pretty much gone now.

That must be the most undeserving point any PL team has collected for about 15 years or so. Feck me that was dreadful..

We look like a championship side that has been recently promoted to Premier League.

Brentford equalising was less annoying to me than watching Ten Hag celebrating when we took the lead.

From cut-back goals to conceding shots for fun, it was a full house in United bingo tonight.

Should have been 5/6-1 to Brentford, abysmal performance, abysmal set up.

Get rid.

I’d of hated to be there tonight. Feel for our fans. Watched us get dominated then when we do finally have something to celebrate we concede straight after

How Rashford, Bruno and McTominay continue to get a pass with this manager is baffling.

Red Card for Casemiro!
I think every one of us who watched that game would completely agree that Brentford deserved much more than a point. I actually feel bad for them.

We were comprehensively outplayed for 100 minutes. The sheer number of shots they had, the number of times they hit the post, the way they dominated us in our third. We had nothing.

How can we be this bad? Like, i get it if you have the odd bad performance, but we manage to make a relegation fighting Brentford look like prime Barcelona. And this is not even overexaggerating, it's just incredibly bad. Injuries might have been really bad this season, but it's not an excuse for such performances. I hope SJR realizes and doesn't have Southgate as answer.

Wow. Players clearly don't care. Embarrassing performance from the whole team.

I don't know who replaces him but this season has been so woeful that ETH has to go. Playing well once Vs Liverpool is not enough for him to stay, I'm not even overly confident of another fa cup final.

Someone who can organise a mf.
Just so awful

Disgusted with that. The ease at which Brentford played out and were suddenly attacking our box was shameful. And we had the classic shit the bed once we score, classic Rashy and Fernandes and his decision making was horrendous. Brentford battered us. How many times did Onana launch it to Hojlund only to be outmuscled…you’d think after the 8th time of trying we might attempt another option. Braindead all over the pitch and the looks on the faces of the players and bench and staff was just glum throughout.

We're such a bad joke. How can these players train together for months and come out looking this disjointed.

I don't even really feel bad about missing out on Champions League, even if it was a slim hope to begin with. We don't belong there anyway, so what's the point?

Shocking

I know Bruno likes to play in the edge and regularly goes for the killer ball but feck me that was absolutely pathetic

I generally feel that has to be one of the biggest turnovers of possession from a single player in PL history id love to see the stats I reckon he lost it at least 20 times
