Geoff Shreeves asking those oh so important questions.

Didn't we scored 5 once under LVG?
We did. But it was against Midgetland. The equivalent of a league 2 side. In the PL we struggle too much against relegation fodder. I want us to show no mercy.
City aside, you can only win the league if you beat what’s put in front of you. 1-0, 5-0, 3 points is 3 points. One game at a time, beat the small clubs and show the f**k up against the big boys.
Don't expect us to outscore them or even the Scouse, but Mourinho can get results his way, we beat all 19 teams last year so we are clearly good enough to beat anyone on the day, needed width and defensive solidity to find that consistency.. I expect us to improve from last season but by how much, really depends on mourinho's ability to convince the team to fight for results each game. I also think we need to go in the market in January again.
To be fair, as a team that once lost out on the title due to goal difference, we should never under estimate the importance putting a lot of goals past the weaker teams.
I remember the commentator for the City 7-2 Stoke match last season being an absolute car crash.
"CITY's! FOOTBALL! IS! SPARKLING! WOW! JUST WOW!"
Redknapp and Souness in the studio, anyone would think they were commentating on a wake.
Still find it funny that people wanted him here.
Good luck with that, people will think till the end of time that issues is always with other team.
Reality crashing down on them
Brighton vs Man Utd
1-0 Brighton. How is Murray still scoring PL goals, he’s like 60 now isn’t he?
United look sh*t, could brighton nick a draw somehow today?
What the hell is going on here?
Incredible deft finish from Murray. 2-0 Brighton, WOW
Enjoy the season you say...
Cannot take the strain!
She cannae take the strain Captain
Spazzing out before the rest, yes.
Spazzing out already?
Weirdly I still think United will take at least a point. One goal would completely unsettle Brighton.
feck off Pogba
still think United will win this
If Smalling was in there we wouldn't be 2 down. Look at the second goal, Lindelof and Bailly have no aerial presence whatsoever
Come on!
Come on, lads!
2-2 before HT.
Boom!
Good post
Get in. Shaw’s been lively again.
Young’s corners have been shite. Floaty poop. Need to get someone else on em

Pogba there 
United’s full backs have been poor defensively.
Awful pen, very lucky to score
I’m taking De Gea out of my fantasy team.
Those laughs at our and Arsenal's defence yesterday looking a bit silly now eh
We need a documentary, ASAP!
Jesus, I've backed Mourinho on here a few times, but this is a horrible performance. Can see them coming back in the first half, but this has been awful.
Bailly and Lindelof have no understanding between them watching this.
Fred is the brazilian Tom Cleverley.
Highly unlikely that United will outperform their expected points to the extent they did last season. I think finishing outside the top 4 is a lot more likely than some people think.
