    Personally I don’t think it’s just that, he’s made a few mistakes lately and Pogba today was another one.

    He's been making mistakes since he turned up. Signing Mkhitaryan was his first, lost count of the amount of times we sat on 1-0 and blew it, the guy's a ****** and way out of his depth here.

    I thought we'd sold them our stewards as well for a minute.

    Perfect game for Liverpool before a CL fixture. Was like a training session...so so easy.

    Good day with Utd losing too.

    If that's the case Shergar, then you're a **** tbh... And I'm inclined to believe them to be fair <ok>

    Chelsea next up for United in the league. I wonder if Jose is gonna expect Pogba to man-mark Hazard or will he maybe drop Lingard to bring in a proper DM and play Pogba in his best position.

    Polar opposites for both teams today. Liverpool couldn't have asked for a better set of results while we got royally ****ed with ours.

    He's clueless mate. He's going down the same road as Wenger.

    Must be so frustrating. Pogba clearly wasn't right but he leaves it up to Pogba to decide whether to stay on or not - bizarre.

    Then has the front to tell everyone post match Pogba was fine <laugh>

    @The Liebherr Legacy what you reckon pal you lot gonna avoid the drop?

    I had Newcastle nailed on before today but they had a proper go and that sort of thing will keep a team up.

    Stoke, WBA and Swansea would be my choice given the plausible options.

    As for the game... ****ing meh.

    Thought we actually played pretty well first half and waa frustrating to give away such a poor goal so early. Shows the difference in quality though regarding taking chances.

    Second half was incredibly poor from us and worrying how much it seemed we gave up, was like a training session tbh.

    Bad weekend for us with Swans, Hudders and Newcastle all winning. Ultimately though it wont be these games that decide our fate, our next 5 read:

    Burnley - A
    Stoke - H
    Newcastle - A
    Swansea - A
    West Ham - A

    Absolute minimum of 7/8 points required there, and seeing as it seems we won't be changing the manager if we're in the bottom 3 still at the end of those fixtures then we'll go down imo.

    He's ****. Suitable for small club mentality like Chelsea who will make him a hero, here he gets exposed every week.

    How he's managed to destroy Herrera after the season he had last season, I've got no idea.

    Then he has a go at the fans, the week we are honouring the Munich victims. <doh>

    Tel see my post following that <laugh>

    Still convinced our squad is better than most down there but that's balanced out by having the worst manager in the league.

    Gonna be touch and go.

    First half wasn't too bad.

    **** defending for the first goal though. The second showed the gulf in class.
