We'll be fine when we get those better fitting kits.

A terribly coached team filled to the brim with has-beens and never-will-bes performs as expected. Worse, actually. In other news, the sky is blue.

That will be 400 million, thank you very much.

Undeniable trash.

Every single fan voting to keep this useless excuse of a manager deserve this and every subsequent loss we endure under his god forsaken abysmal tenure.

It's impossible to watch this team these days.

11 people on the pitch and it looks like they never ever met each other. How is that possible ??

ETH's signings will be a major part of his downfall. It's all on him. Really wanted him to succeed here.

10 years of bad decisions fully showing their results now. No obvious way to stop the slide. Need to start thinking about getting to 40 points.

Its really not. He worked as a head coach at Ajax under a Sporting Director and an experienced CEO.

United should have hired him with a specific style of play, knowing what players we wanted to bring in to execute that. Not just leave it to the manager. If its true that Ten Hag demanded control of transfers, and that's been contracted in Der Telegraaf, he shouldn't have been appointed.

The club should have put a proper structure in place, to realise an actual vision of football. It didn't because it doesn't have a vision of football beyond bland platitudes. All we're seeing is the logic endpoint of a club without any real direction.

The midfield just doesn't work.

I genuinely think it will be quite even xG, we just cannot shoot to save our lives

Not specific to this match, but unless the player is on a free transfer, let’s not sign any players from Real Madrid anymore. The current iteration of Madrid know exactly when to get rid of a player.

When I saw Newcastle's lineup, i had a gut feeling it wasn't the cup Eddie Howe was overlooking.

Newcastle celebrating like they just won a cup.

ETH should make the players stand out on the pitch and watch that. The shameless bunch of underperforming lazy gowls.

Or Chelsea, or Ajax

To show how pathetic things are, we brought on our 'big guns' it made not a single difference. I actually had to check the lineups again to see if Rashford and Hojlund came on.

ETH is fecking terrible.

Predictable defeat in a completely pointless competition. More free evenings in the future, that's a good thing. For us, I mean, not for the team. It doesn't really matter for the team.

Out of cup. Fewer games to play. Fewer games to watch. Fewer games to agonise over.
