    United make the game of football look more difficult than any other team I watch. Rooney and Young are appalling players and our formation should be set to get the best out of our best players but it never is. I predicted a draw at best in derby and a loss at Feyenoord and loss today. The team is not very good and I'm sure pep would be struggling if he were in charge. Fact is until we have a manger who has the balls to drop Rooney and realize shite like Ashley Young and Fellaini are not good enough we will start to improve. It is very concerning and if someone says knee jerk get your Fecking glasses on. Same shit every week.
     
    Our midfield is just not good enough, Fellaini and Rooney not good enough. Fellaini is good at his job but is so limited, he can't pick a good pass or spray it wide. Rooney is not a midfield player end of so why is he playing there? I thought Jose made it clear he won't play in that position. If Rooney or Fellaini both can't create chances then who is our playmaker?

    Rashford and Martial not really firing.
     
    Jose needs to quit on this system as it clearly does not work. Every game so far the wide forward players have been poor and ineffectual and the midfield composition doesn't work.

    Also, Rooney is crap at set pieces.
     
    As long as we play with Zlatan - we will score some goals but we have ZERO chance of scoring from throughballs and Quick attacks. He is just too slow
     
    Well this is dire again. We are simply not very good at playing football.
     
    Wank aren't we. Let's hope like the other games this season that we wake up in the second half.
     
    Zero composure, Rooney in the 6/8 role that Mou himself didn't like him in, with Carrick & Blind on the bench.

    Mind boggling.
     
    It's not like we've not had the chances today. Ibra should've scored at least 1 by now, Pogba hit the bar, Shaw was in a great position. Rooney could've hit the target with a couple decent opportunities if he wasn't so wank, feck knows what Young was doing when the keeper was 15 yards off his line. Rashford could've done better at the end there.
     
    Don't think it's like LVG being in charge. We wouldn't had any of our half opportunities if that was the case. We're still very shit, but with a bit more entertainment.
     
    Rooney in midfield just a few weeks after saying he'd never play in midfield. Can we have a manager who doesn't shoehorn him into every team please.
     
    We are shockingly shit.

    We have no pattern to our play, it's just kick and run football. We all look lost. And out of ideas. God knows what they do in training all day long as it's nothing more than a league 1 team will serve up.

    Add to the fact we have no fight and
    No desire we are going to be well off the pace. Not happy at all.
     
    That Rooney Fellaini and Pogba midfield is working wonders isn't it. Need Carrick or Herrera there to support him. Mourinho needs to give Pogba complete freedom and let the other two do the defending.
     
    He's been far from our worst player today, but of course he'll get all the blame because it's fashionable. Why not blame Rashford, who has been hot garbage? Or Smalling, who has reverted back to his old self and looks utterly clueless? Or Ibra, who offers nothing except the ability to finish chances and can't even't do that half-functionally today making him worse than useless?

    But no, it's all Rooney's fault.

    I didn't say it was all Rooney's fault so wipe away your tears.

    I said he's utter fecking shit which he has been.
     
    This United team is very rigid. There is almost no off the ball movement. It seems like it's Watford against Watford, same kind of football.
     
    Our midfield is just not good enough, Fellaini and Rooney not good enough. Fellaini is good at his job but is so limited, he can't pick a good pass or spray it wide. Rooney is not a midfield player end of so why is he playing there? I thought Jose made it clear he won't play in that position. If Rooney or Fellaini both can't create chances then who is our playmaker?

    Rashford and Martial not really firing.
    I said when the window closed we still didn't have a midfield to match City's or that of Chelsea three years ago
     
    We're crying out for Michael Carrick. Mourinho needs to see it.
     
    We have some of the worst crossers of the ball I've ever seen, yet our game revolves around them.

    Can we at least have them defence splitting passes? Is that so much to ask?
     
    Rooney has been non existent. He's not the only one but he's consistently a huge problem. It's like playing with ten players.
     
    It's hard to truly to criticize individual players when bar de Gea, everybody has been underwhelming, which appears to be more of a result of the team as a unit playing poorly than just individual players playing poorly.
     
    All the optimism for Utd will be gone if we lose today, and look likely to.

    Spend so fecking much $$ and still same shit over and over again
