That was our last friendly and we look so under prepared.
Our season is in Woodward's hands.

That's fine. None of us are saying it will be chalk and cheese and we'll win 4-0, but this really didn't matter tonight. If we're shit against Leicester and beyond then moan away.Can’t wait to play like this next Friday only for those of you who say “pre season doesn’t matter” to wake up and realise how much shit we are in with this man in charge.

You know its possible to play football With mediocre players - but you need a system, they need to know what to do. And after 2 years, Mourinho still hasn't been able to get that into the club. Under Ferguson, you could put more or less any player in any given position and they would do ok. With Mourinho its the opposite.We have too many poor and mediocre players in our line up to play decent football. We really need to learn how to replace non performing players in due time rather than stick with them because they have nice personalities off the pitch.
True. We will be playing free flowing and exciting attacking football the moment the season starts. We are just bluffing right now.Again, it's pre-season.
I'm on about your name calling you silly child. Shouldn't you be in bed by now or has mommy let you stay up late. By the way we were shit second half as well
Yet we've been hitting it long for 2 seasonsThey’re exactly the wrong players to be hitting long.
Yeah?Mitchell’s shite, just runs straight to the man on the ball and doesn’t bother to check any threats in the space he just left.
feck me, what is this? When did I sign up to MSN messenger again.I'm on about your name calling you silly child. Shouldn't you be in bed by now or has mommy let you stay up late. By the way we were shit second half as well
When your boy and big Rom are back we are better equipped for Mourinho’s brand.Yet we've been hitting it long for 2 seasons
Aye I will troll through pages of wank for you. You just hold on I will be right back!
Agree. Completely.You can tell what the plan is with United but the players just don't look like they can pull it off. I remember when we went to Stamford Bridge under Van Gaal when Jose was their manager, we had 70% of the ball but Hazard needed just one chance and it was over. Yeah we attacked but they didn't ever really look out of control. United have had a handful of games like that, the FA cup semi last year, the Liverpool home game, the Europa League final, but its not really consistent. We've got a good shape when defending but when pressed we're very panicky and we don't counter with any kind of menace much of the time. Tonight was another testament to that.
Different with moyes he got 28 million on fellaini and paid the priceYeah he was brilliant in pre-season, worked wonders for us in real fixtures.
Exactly. Mourinho is really looking outdatedThey’re exactly the wrong players to be hitting long.
And suddenly we are linked to a defender even worse than the other 3 we have previously been linked With.Tweet

Very credible source.
We were under the cosh so naturally fell deeper. I doubt it was a direct instruction.I don't get why all 3 midfielders were sat right infront of the back 4. The gap between midfield and attack was too much for us to create anything substantial.
I won't, i will just handsomely what until the next manager.we could always go support someone else?
Okay PMS whatever you say love!
Have you heard of a thing called the search function?
Right, the real reason you won't find it is because you made it up. No one is claiming we'll finish midtable.
Age jokes. That never.turns well.feck me, what is this? When did I sign up to MSN messenger again.
Maybe we are just bringing him back as a Souvenir from Munich?Please no-.-
We just had 3-4 games in US tour. How many more games you need to get this "match fit" before you can go into a game showing your actual worth?Fit enough to play 90 minutes of competitive football.
I hope he will get the full backs and right winger he wants in time.I won't, i will just handsomely what until the next manager.
Woodys fault for not buying him Arnotovic.Exactly. Mourinho is really looking outdated
Shocker, you making things up again. If you're gonna claim something, at least have the balls to back it up.Okay PMS whatever you say love!
Doesn’t help having so many average players and young overrate players as well. If we can get top 4 with this squad it’s achievement.Can’t wait to play like this next Friday only for those of you who say “pre season doesn’t matter” to wake up and realise how much shit we are in with this man in charge.
Because its a friendly, remember those? You really want them busting their balls with PL game in 5 days?We just had 3-4 games in US tour. How many more games you need to get this "match fit" before you can go into a game showing your actual worth?
You can't account for how fecking clueless we look even in simple plays. Those players couldn't hold possession if their lives counted on it. No excuse for that.We're playing away to Bayern Munich in a meaningless pre-season friendly for fitness with a lot of our first team missing. No we couldn't get one shot on target with Rashford and Sanchez. It's not the end of the world, it's a friendly with unfit/missing players.
Don’t think even one poster on here has seriously said we’d finish mid table tbh mateAye I will troll through pages of wank for you. You just hold on I will be right back!
We were under the cosh because we didn't press them enough when they had the ball, when we did the player was too far away and then they could pass between the lines. When they pressed us we surrendered the ball way too easily also.We were under the cosh so naturally fell deeper. I doubt it was a direct instruction.
Tough night for a giflord.In 120min of play we didn't have a single shot on target
