So the answer is, super sub against relegation sides?There have been plenty of performances this year to make one ask this question. This wasn’t one of him. He was good today.
I don’t know. Suppose it depends on the question…So the answer is, super sub against relegation sides?
Well since Eriksen is going to be out for awhle, hopefully he shows us soonI don’t know. Suppose it depends on the question…
At this point in the season, it's hard to be too far away. Even the 16th placed team is "just" 12 points away.For all the negativity, we are surprisingly close to top 4. Going by media reports you'd think we were 18th
Yeah but we’ve been 10 points off at this stage before. I think when Jose was sacked we were 12.At this point in the season, it's hard to be too far away.
Yeah, we really need him to give us something in the midfield consistently. He’s been off to a poor start this season. Hopefully this game is a first step in a better direction.Well since Eriksen is going to be out for awhle, hopefully he shows us soon
What was the Luton vibe on today? Played ok and happy enough I assume? Didn't really deserve a point but at the same time if you got one Utd could not have complained.Well done guys and good luck for the rest of the season.
Right back at you… stay up, help send Burnley, Liverpool and Sheffield United downWell done guys and good luck for the rest of the season.
Way better than deservedly beaten time and again against everyone including ourselves.Don’t get why we can’t beat teams more than 1-0!
Thanks for not deceiving us. I wish you well in your quest for a likeable side. I like this United. Like them a lot. New owner (sort of) next week. Delighted for Victor. Well done all, climbing steadily out of a deep hole.I’ll just be honest and say it, I don’t like this team at all. Happy we got the three points and that’s it really.
Well the prevailing attitude here seems to be that winning by a goal is basically the same thing as losing so you're in good company.Just read that Luton haven't lost by more than one goal since August so maybe today wasn't as bad as I was moaning about earlier.
Seriously? Pretty feckin grim...12 games in.
That’s effectively a third of the season gone already.
Only 13 league goals scored.
Defenders have given us the winning goal in 3 scrappy wins.
Our forwards have scored just 1 goal between them in 12 games and that was over 2 months ago (Rashford’s solitary goal in the loss at Arsenal).
Let that sink in….. 1 goal from a forward in 12 league games.
.
Absolutely nothing except for Rashford's cross to Hojlund which should have been a goal and Antony's cut inside and pass to a wide open Rashford, which also should have been a goal. Oh, and the goal that came from a deflected ball to the middle of the box after a cross from the right.Bruno, Maguire & Garnacho (1st half) got us over the line, the rest didn't show up. absolutely nothing down the right again for the whole 90
I know mate. My issue earlier wasn't us winning by a goal, it was us regularly failing to score more than one. We're scraping through too many games at the moment and our attacking threat is relying on a 20 year old who should be an understudy, who is meant to be getting service from wingers who are more focused on making attempts from themselves.Well the prevailing attitude here seems to be that winning by a goal is basically the same thing as losing so you're in good company.
Yeah, the thing is that wasn't our problem in this match. Hojlund, Rashford and Garnacho fluffed their lines on great chances to score, but Rashford, Hojlund and Antony set those three chances up in the first place.I know mate.

Yeah I think most realistic fans know a draw would have been a great result. We've lost plenty games by a close margin, hopefully can turn it around at home against palace next. Stay up or go down, it's been really fun so far.What was the Luton vibe on today? Played ok and happy enough I assume?

Villa beat them 3-1 few weeks ago.Just read that Luton haven't lost by more than one goal since August so maybe today wasn't as bad as I was moaning about earlier.
No easy matches in the premier league especially for this United with a 2nd choice back four and aren't clinical with the chances they create.Wolves, Forest, Burnley, Palace, Brentford, Fulham and now Luton.
If your life depended on a narrow unconvincing win v a lower quality team … we‘re your team!
Ah, bum.Villa beat them 3-1 few weeks ago.
I feel like we are owed. Especially after Wednesdays let down.For Luton?
Which fecking team have you been watching this season? Because its not this United team.
If you want to be a miserable bastard why not make it none?There might be some comfort that we're only 5 points behind Spurs and 6 points behind Arsenal, but it's only false comfort.
Our next league fixtures up to Christmas..
A - Everton - who are starting to get their act together after a dismal start.
A - Newcastle - Tough match. We can't score and they don't concede much. They score lots of goals....
H - Chelsea - Won't be an easy game either and they're starting to get their act together. Another tight defence.
H - Bournemouth
A - Liverpool - !!!
A - West Ham - I can see us struggling after the above fixtures and having been turfed out of the CL by then.
Could we be looking at a possible 1 win out those 6 games ?

EtH is gone if we only win 1 in 6 and are on 24 points by Christmas. We need a minimum of 10 points, ideally 13-14.There might be some comfort that we're only 5 points behind Spurs and 6 points behind Arsenal, but it's only false comfort.

. All our wins have come against mediocre opposition (except Brentford) and all by thin margins. Anyone decent we’ve played has beaten us by 2 goals or more.A little strange:
United have scored 13 goals and have 16 goals against us. We are number 6.
N. Forest have scored 12 goals and have 15 goals against them. They are number 15.
