6 shots, 1 on target. Great stuff.

Think it's getting clearer and clearer the setup and training/strategy is part of the problem, rather than players.

Dogshit football from United. Fingers crossed we can scrape a result in the home leg and qualify for another 180 mins of dogshit.

I don’t understand why we can’t just pick our best 11 players each week in a formation that suits their strengths.

Bored as feck, when can we play good attacking football?

Lucky we played a shite team. Only positive is that we didn't get beat.

Fecking dogshit performance

Didn't understand the BT commentary purring over us at all, absolutely wretched stuff

That abomination has convinced me to play my Sunday league game instead of watching United vs Chelsea.

Disgraceful performance,

How can anyone say controlled?

We got dicked for 90 minutes against a shite team. They should be embarrassed that we have to even play like that.

It was torture to watch. Not getting an away goal is stupid

Pathetic. Once again we look like a league 2 team.

Not the worst result but no the best either. We need the first goal at OT.

Matic was good. Good discipline at the back. Sick and tired of the poor passing and decision making in the final third though. Another poor performance overall but at least some professionalism which has been missing in recent weeks.

Genuinely think we are the worst English team in the UCL at the moment.

We've made our bed rightly or wrongly with Mourinho. Can't expect more than that.

A non-existant attacking game.

Full backs let the ball come in far too much.

De Gea and Lindelof class. Smalling decent. The rest were 5/10 or less.

That was dreadful. I'm all for being careful in an CL away game and I expect us to beat them at home but that was crap.

0:0 isn't even that good of a result. If they score at OT we're in trouble.

People are deluding themselves if they think that’s a good result. They were poor and if we had had any kind of quality on display we would have scored and probably won.

The lack of cohesion and direction in this team is very depressing. The players are completely winging it out there and I really don’t think that’s acceptable in 2018 for a coaching set up paid millions a year.

Standard Mourinho away performance in a European knock out.

Only De Gea and McTominay played well today. Jose gave up the chance to get an away goal. It's on him if the 2nd leg doesn't work out.

Jose just seems to trust his tactics in these kind of situations. More often than not they work, but it’s hard to watch a lot of the time.

I’ll take that tonight I suppose.

Not a bad result. What a terrible game to watch though.

Something isn't right. Even our defense isn't solid anymore.

Sucks we couldn't get the win but everyone knows this Sevilla team has no chance at Old Trafford.
