[Swearing Budgie]

Not the sum of their toilet parts.

 

[Siorac]

Why are we so much worse than last season? And don’t say “manager” because it’s the same bloody manager we had last season.

We aren't worse than last season. It's pretty similar.

 

[Giggsy9099]

Zizou...

 

[tomaldinho1]

We seem so different every 45mins. Thought we were doing ok, even started well, 1st half here in contrast to Villarreal. Then we just go and throw away two points. Sickening how regularly we gift teams goals.

 

[berbatrick]

opposite of the villareal game, they didn't create too much but took their chance. after the luck midweek, this was the flip side.
as usual, you can look at ole's early games with an awful squad, and most games this season, and you'd have no idea the squad is 100X better.

 

[#07]

Today's match probably tells us everything we need to know about our title credentials. We couldn't get the job done

 

[OnlyTwoDaSilvas]

Reasonable first half, but with worrying moments. Godawful second half.

How does this team and these players play so poorly? This is definitely a good squad, the best post-Fergie. I'm desperate for Ole to succeed here, but I don't see it happening.

 

[patch1]

One point from 2 home games .How long before the idiots in charge realise that the manager is not up to the job.

 

[Sylar]

Wait until we play the hard games

Wouldnt be surprised if we do better in those.

Im still astonished that we allowed a counter attack at 1-0 up, and with more players, not one player was smart enough to foul their player to stop the counter.

 

[Gary_Walsh_Nou_Camp_Hell]

Really disappointing.

Fred has to end that counter attack. Tackle him or foul him, you do what you have to do to stop that counter attack happening.

All over the pitch our player misplaced simple passes throughout the game. non of them have the commitment to go in to tackles and fight for the ball either

As Roy Keane said a long time ago now, you won't win the league with Fred and McTominay in central midfield.

 

[OneUnited24]

Says it all really doesn’t it. Our manager is a coward

Always bleeds on about how United are about taking risks and he never takes them. Actually sick of him now … and only recently did i start to be ole out

 

[koop]

Fred.

Literally every feckin game. Guy can barely pass, barely control the ball and cannot even defend. WHY IS HE BEING PLAYED
Sancho needs to start regularly for us, with game time he will become one of our best players.

 

[Becks-7-]

So what would have happened if they actually would play with their first eleven?

 

[georgieboiii]

Can't wait to see this lot go on twitter "We go again :muscle_emoji:". So pathetic.

 

[brian017]

Ole’s behaviour moments before the FT whistle was disgusting, not something I want from an United manager. I think it’s finally time to go

 

[suheilsworld]

I’m all aboard #oleout
Enough is enough. This is appalling.
With that squad and attacking prowess, our football should be much much better.
Get zidane please

 

[Krits]

There is a clear lack of structure in our play on and off the ball. There was a player who could have (I think it was Shaw) kept Townsend in check. We had the players to cover the other two Everton attackers. But everyone just got sucked to the ball. Very school boy defending that. It isn’t the only time that it’s happened. We actually looked good up until their goal. I thought it was going to be an easy win actually. After the goal we just lost the plot

I'm firmly Ole out but its difficult to directly blame him for today's result unless you want to talk about the starting lineup. In the end though, it all comes back to him not getting the most out of this squad.

Everton are a good side under Rafa and I see them taking a few more points off the top teams.

 

[RedGib]

Another goal against from our set play/corner…it’s so weak from us, 1-0 HT, get the defence and centre mids tight and let the abundance of attacking players work it out up front, no need to keep chucking players past the ball…clueless management at times….happens far too often.

 

[DomesticTadpole]

Not great but decent point in the end. Ole will get the right formula so no need to panic just yet.

Give over.

 

[Frosty]

I honestly thought buying Varane would mask some of the frailties at DM.

 

[prateik]

At what point do we stop caring?
I understand we cant play just 1 midfielder with Bruno and Pogba.. it doesnt work. It wont work.
Try Matic .. or VdB.. if they arent good enough, McFred will have to do.. there is no option.

its the front 4 I have an issue with.. Not doing anywhere near enough.

 

[croadyman]

Failure to defend a tight lead is going to kill us this season, you just knew that a single goal wasn't going to be enough against them. Bloody Villa scored three against them and took the game away which we should being too.

 

[Andre Kagawa]

Full strength I think we nick that.

You were shite too

 

[Denis79]

what if he's caught smiling minutes before the game ended?

He always smiles, I just don't want excuses.

 

[Ixion]

It's crazy to think we didn't deserve to win that Villarreal game they should have been out of sight and Everton's disallowed goal today we could have lost 4 in a row.

 

[Rightnr]

We know what must be done but we're not Chelsea...

 

[Dr. Dwayne]

Shaw abandoned his post for that goal. Such a crazy run to do without ever checking over his shoulder

Just saw the goal again. What was he thinking?

 

[Jibbs]

And the shite show continues... with no end in sight.

 

[Jazz]

It's our midfield that's the problem. I like Sancho but we should have instead invested that money in a DM. It was always the big issue for us. Anyway, we can't do anything about it now.

 

[Prodigy24]

As usual we’ll be out of the title race come November.

We are already out.

 

[ReallyUSA]

It’s time to go

 

[steffyr2]

What was our formation after Pogba came on? Seems like the defense fell apart (more than usual) and Greenwood disappeared.
Outside backs should consider their defensive duties more -- they're always running forward with the ball going backwards.
Also, why can't we do a corner kick that goes to where Ronaldo and Pogba are standing?
Pogba looked up for it -- beautiful pass, nice shot, close on the header.

 

[DomesticTadpole]

I'm firmly Ole out but its difficult to directly blame him for today's result unless you want to talk about the starting lineup. In the end though, it all comes back to him not getting the most out of this squad.

Everton are a good side under Rafa and I see them taking a few more points off the top teams.

Him bringing Pogba on was his fault. We needed to get a hold of the midfield, not pile everybody forward. We had enough attacking players on already.

 

[eire-red]

There's no possible way someone else couldn't get more out of this squad. Ole has nothing to hide behind now.

 

[Asger]

Once again AWB, McTom and Fred prove to use they are not more than just squad players. Terrible to have few passengers every match! They will most likely cost Ole his job.

 

[BuzzKillington]

Why are we so much worse than last season? And don’t say “manager” because it’s the same bloody manager we had last season.

Are we really worse? We had periods like this last season, the problem is we wanted less of that this year and that is the progression we wanted to see.

I’m sure we’ll find our feet again at some point soon, but if we keep putting in lengthy fallow periods like we’re in at the moment, we’ll end up no better than last year. With our current squad I really want to see more.

 

[VinzentFTW]

Old Trafford is up for graps for every team out there.

 

[leontas]

It’s clear that Ole doesn’t know how to use this squad properly and also didn’t push for the right reinforcements over the summer.

Fred with another terrible mistake that led to their goal. How did Ole not prioritise a defensive mid signing? It’s clear that’s our biggest weakness right now and will keep us from achieving anything this season. Teams can transition so quickly through our midfield into dangerous positions, it’s not even funny.

Ronaldo up top reduces our mobility and effectiveness against teams that sit back, why was he subbed on so early?

We looked so clueless in creating open spaces and chances in the second half, which given our attacking players, its inexcusable.
