    Nah. We've had players like Toby & Virgil, now we have some right cart-horses. We just need to set our sights lower. Much lower.

    You mean Utd?

    Because we are below 17th.

    Woke up to a text from a mate that we were up by 2! I replied that we cant hold a lead or win a game so it will be 3-2 by the end minimum. By the time I made a coffee and turned on the game its 2-2.

    Hughes is slated for not changing the team, then he's slated for changing the team. He's got snowflake players who can't handle pressure. Other teams score 2 goals and are guaranteed a win.

    I'd have Hoedt over Vestergaard all day. Is Bednarek injured?

    Just come out fighting in the second half. That's all I ask. Don't try and play for a draw, for ****s sake.

    Vesti missed the first tackle on the second goal and then walked back into the box and watched them score; why the **** is he on the pitch?

    When we take a lead, we have the worst record in the Premier League: 5 points in 5.

    When our opponents take a lead, we have the worst record in the Premier League: 0 points from 7.

    On the bright side, our record in matches where no one scores is perfectly average.

    I thought all four goals were good.
    Vestergaard caught out twice. Maybe we need to go four at the back with the fairly successful pairing, from two seasons ago, of Yoshida and Stephens.
    I think the thought of having two CBs behind you, when you get turned, leads to complacency in getting back, from the third CB.

    I think it also means Hojbjerg and Lemina are not always as quick to get back into their defensive shape

    Particularly for Man Utd's first goal, from their goal kick

    Do not disagree, but Maya should have won that ball with Rashford and if he could not have won it, should have brought him down. Vesti, well he's looked a liability since he arrived TBH.

    Lemina was so stupid in fouling Pogba and getting a card.

    Have a feeling that his presence, or lack thereof, will be immaterial next week.

    Hoedt is worse than Vestergaard
