Nah calling it as I have seen, we have been terrible but he has had a hand in all the good things we've conjured up in that nightmarish half. Would be just behind Valencia as the best player in red, the rest seem to be massively drugged or frozen by the occasion.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) was joined by comedian Ali Woods to look back at the best and worst moments of a rollercoaster season with the annual United Hour Awards.
Has Ten Hag been sacked yet? We're not sure and we hope not, but it's looking more likely as the days pass.
Who should replace him and why is it taking so long to make a decision?

Wonderful provider.
But of course, no-one has an agenda against Rooney.
So we playing him on the right wing.
Why is it an agenda to comment on his he isn't a good player anymore? Tell me how he's good?But of course, no-one has an agenda against Rooney.
It's complete bias when you can't acknowledge any of the good things he does. Like that cross.
Just saw the bolded part, ffs
From now on whenever he touches the ball during the attack in which we scored it will be called an assist.
As one of his biggest critics, have to admit he's been our best attacker this half, Zlatan has been poor despite the goal, Mikhi and Lingard have been hopeless. If we take him off we'll be screwed I reckon
So who did get the assist then?Just saw the bolded part, ffs

No one got the assist. It was blunder by their 'keeper.
The cross that should've bee driven in so someone could actually get on it? We got lucky (and then a fantastic finish) and I've no problem with that, but that wasn't or shouldn't be the intention.
If you say so, but your determination to deny him any credit speaks volumes.
Which was caused by Rooney's cross. It depends how you define an assist I suppose. Some systems do use the last player from the scoring team to touch the ball before the goal.
So you think every goal scored no matter how counts as an assist for someone?
I'm quite prepared to if I see him do something good.
Under some systems, yes.
No you aren't, as you've just shown.
Wish he played like this every game - wouldn't get half the criticism.
No, it's not. It counts in some situations like Rooney's "assist" in the community shield, but in this situation City's player was the last one who touched the ball, he actually intercepted it and gave it to Ibra. The fact that you already counted it as an assist describes how much of a fanboy you are. Only you and maybe that guy shamans would say this is an assist.
Much better with a bit more space on the right
And that you deny the pass to Lingard was an assist - when it 100% was, under any system - shows how stupid you're prepared to look to try and do him down.
System
Not sure what's so amusing about the word 'system'. But I guess posting an emoji is easier than formulating an actual argument.System
Arguably part of the problem; he's perfectly fine when given time and space but looks much more ineffective if the opposition even begin to close him down.
Yeah, that's part of what I meant. He's just not agile enough in the middle.
fwiw I've thought he's been better this half with it being a bit more open in city's half. You'll probably just think I'm saying that for your benefit though because you actually have an agenda about people having an agenda
Hes absolutely fecked, get him off.
If you can't admit he did some good things in the first half though, then you're biased.
Undroppable
I give up.
I give up.
Ok then
This guy sucks, I don't care that he wasn't the worse player today(as if that's now a barometer of success). He can't play as a number 10 because he brings nothing to the table a number 10 should bring. It's obvious Mourninho saw that hence why he shoved him on the wing today. His inclusion also means Pogba plays in a role he's not going to be effective in.
Sick and tired of moaning about the same shit, he's protected in this country, somehow it took about 20 fouls from him to get booked, despite numerous fouls and he should try and play to the whistle instead of hysterically claiming for a penalty every time the ball hits an opposition player in the box.
As long as he plays every minute every game, we're not coming close to the title, it's as simple as that. We dont have a good enough team to carry such a passenger of a player.

Regardless of how poor he can be throughout games, he does have the odd moment of old Rooney with a pass or set up. For me he can't last 90 min anymore, nor should he. He's slowed down so much his pace is a hinderence to the team.
Above all I think his managers as well as he himself are confused about where he should play on the field or what role he should have. He doesn't fit the role of a number 9 or 10 for me, not properly anyway. So is always a bit weak when played there.
He's no wide player either.
He's not a free kick specialist
He doesn't take our pens at the moment
I think time has come for him to be a bench impact sub to give every ounce of energy for say 30 min or so.

The fact that Mourinho moved him wide in every game so far shows that Mourinho was quite clearly unhappy with his performances as a number ten. Why he avoids to sub him off is still big question though.
The fact that he plays him every game suggests he rates him as a player.
At this point he will never get dropped so we might as well just lie down and accept it. Hopefully he gets bored and fecks off when he's 65 or something.
Good ball to Fellaini.
He doesn't want to sub the captain?
He was great in this match. His supply of balls into the box was first class. He hounded on defense.
When the Mkkitaryan's and Lingard's and even Pogba's go missing, Rooney stood up and was counted.

Moved to the right because he's shite yet still not substituted. It's boring.
He was easily among our better players if not the best. Easily the best among the 4 attackers that started
