    BBC text…..

    Leeds are ripping Manchester United apart here. The pitch opens up and Wilfried Gnonto just can't find Jack Harrison with a return ball.

    I think we’re screwed.

    Well this week has just been going great...

    Leeds don't even have a new manager yet, and they're already getting the new manager bounce.

    Looks like Garnacho could be as seriously unlikeable as Fernandes, with the added bonus of having a daft hair cut and the dodgiest eyebrows I've ever seen.

    Yep. It will be pretty much all over bar the shouting if we don’t win this weekend. And we aren’t going to win

    The rest will just be a long drawn out torture session

    Leeds are playing like a team possessed.
    Good value for the 2 goal lead.

    Yeah barring a United comeback we have to win on Saturday, we had to anyway really, just other teams picking up points in games they shouldn’t is not ideal.

    On a bit of a side note someone told me a stat the other day which I have no idea if is true or not. The teams who finished in the top 6 last season in the PL played 168 games between them against the teams that finished 7th - 20th, how many of those 168 games did they lose?

    I take it you haven’t seen us play for the past year or so? Who exactly are we going to beat ? And do we have any chance of taking all three points against top sides like Everton and Leeds are now doing. We are getting cut adrift

    Lol, and another team who had the bottle to sack their manager improves. Sigh.

    So what? I'd rather have some hope rather than throw the ****ing towel in.

    I’m actually seriously considering taking a break from football, come back when it’s confirmed.

    I’ve been told it’s the hope, you see.

    In fairness we did have the bottle to sack our manager. We just got a worse one in and, shock horror, got worse

    In fairness, United are a completely different side without Casemeiro..

    Leeds facing them twice in a row without Casemeiro and no Marsch was pretty lucky timing.

    Still half an hour to go though..

    That actually isn’t an answer to my questions. And as alluded to by a poster above there is a well known phrase about hope

    We can’t even score goals. Let alone win games

    We haven't really seen what our new signings can do.
