Should play 30 minute games with rolling ball system

Don’t even care about the point. An absolutely shocking result which sums up this spineless team.

Go now Jose, spent all this money and can’t get any tune out of them. City win tomorrow and the gaps what, 17 fecking points? Simply not good enough.

Lingard and Mata need to start every match for us. Only players in the team who consistently make off the ball runs.

Mourinho should accept blame for getting it completely wrong in the first half with the players and tactics.

We’d have won if we started the game like we did the second half.

Too reactive, not proactive

Terrible set pieces defending again. Atkinson terrible again. Passing terrible again.

Better than losing but still shite result.

Fair play to Lingard though. The only one who deserves any sort of credit.

Showed alot of heart but the maturity and technical/attacking proficiency just isnt there.

Two soft goals to concede.

Wish we would look to vary our play up a bit more instead of relying on poor crossing so much. Title race is over. Lets see if we can build on this and get second place.

Sick of this shit.

I can’t believe how much it’s cost to assemble this squad.

Logging off before I get myself banned.

Enjoy the inquest, gimps.

Ibra shouldn't be anywhere near the team. Shaw was decent. Rashford needs to start using his head. Pogba was anonymous.

Defence has to take the blame I'd say. Burnley are a well drilled side with a decent away record v top sides, scoring 2 against them is tricky in itself.

We should never have been 1-0 down in the first fecking 2 minutes, let alone 2-0 down.

Looking forward to the excuses. Absolute dross. Lukaku is out of his depth.

Not having an alternative to Lukaku is costing us big time.

With that being said, for £80m you shouldn't need an alternative.

Second in the league! 1 point ahead of Chelsea and superior GD.

Must improve a LOT.

Well in Jessie!

We need a left and right winger. Rashford touches the ball a lot and rarely anything of significance ever comes from it bar the occasional assist and goal

At least we got the draw. It was starting to look like it was going to be a loss.

Stressful time for the team and for Mourinho. Need to get out of this rut and start going on winning runs again to stay in contention for the 2nd spot.

Stupid Man City and their unbeatable form has made the league so boring. Whoever watches the league to see who gets 2, 3, 4 :-(

Every time we put a shit cross in and every time there goalkeeper would catch it and then fall to the ground to waste time. So annoying when keepers do that.

Draw better than nothing , but still a very poor performance overall.

The club just seems so aimless right now , it looks as if we are happy to be average. The response overall from the City game has been pathetic. The white flag has gone up far too easily.

Not a Lingard lover but thank goodness for him today. Still don’t think he is starting 11 but a super sub. Well done.

Pogba disappeared in the second half. Matic was boss.

Lukaku is 75m bust.
Ibra (love him) but needs to play in the U23 till he gets his rhythm back, miles off the pace.
Welcome back Luke.
Goodbye Miki.

Apart from the 51 crosses (yes, 51), I thought we were good going forward, good at keeping the tempo and good at controlling the game.

We lost by a lucky drop ball 3 yards from goal and a worldie of a FK you can't do anything about Yes the result is fecking hard to swallow but their 2 goals were lucky. It's shit like that you can't control in a game.

feck me Atkinson is a right cnut. How the feck do you not send off Barnes (he saw the fecking handball, it was deliberate, he even waved the advantage there) and then after scoring a fecking goal in the added time he adds fecking nothing to it?
