Why are people in the matchday thread upset? City will win this trophy anyway, it’s better not to play a lot of needless games and get knocked out early rather than in the semifinals:wenger:

Obertans #1 fan.
Thought there were some promising performances there.

also think some United players are really struggling now. Mara and Telles are surely going to struggle for game time with their performances.

Moss is a giant waste of space, seconded only by Martial.

In general thought we played alright though, all broke down when Martial touched the ball.

Not goo enough and embarassing lose. With ronaldo we win thag with tht performance. Martial really is bad upfront. Either way we shouldve won that.

Meh, not too fussed. Played alright, they were lucky, should've had a pen. Thought Sancho played well. Feels like 0 of the almost 30 shots we had were on target though. :lol:

We were far the better team. Not going to loose any sleep going out this cup

Started poorly and deservedly went behind. Then we absolutely hammered them and should’ve won comfortably.

Sancho and VDB looked good. Martial was dreadful. Bruno tried too hard when he came on. Ah well, if we had to pick a tournament to go out of early, we’d have all picked this. City win it anyway

No excuses. Started off poorly then laboured to create chances. It’s not good enough and Ole should be under pressure

We played ok up until the final third. Then it turned to shit for the most part.

If Sancho and VdB can't impress in pointless competition in front of home crowd, how the heck they are ever gonna play in big games? They sucked both big time. Martial... I gave up on him so not gonna waste energy.

We are still so slow, we have no plan. Defending against us is so freaking easy. We never put them today on a back foot... We are like slow motion team.

Conclusion of this match: Martial, Telles need to go. Mata should never start for us, unless he is literally the last available person not injured. Matic is too old.

That was embarrassing. I cannot understand how people are happy with displays like this. We were playing at home against a mediocre team and we never looked like scoring.

Not too bothered actually. Might mean a little bit more rest for the players. Martial needs to be shipped out asap though.

Worst thing about this is we needed this competition for the squad players.

I think we saw why Ole is reluctant to go to the bench. Not much there to pick from. And Martial was just a shadow on the pitch. A total waste of oxygen.

Other than confirming that Martial is utterly useless, not going to lose any sleep at being out of this cup

Good game from west ham...

Have a feeling Ole is going the klopp way?

Maybe wants to concentrate on the major trophies.
