    It's because we play 4 2 3 1.

    Instead of 4 3 3 .

    Obvious, to all but Ten hag (and every previous manager since Jose)

    So much space for Bournemouth

    They should be 3 or 4 up by now

    With Rashford wandering about, we've only got ten players out there.

    Utd look half decent going forward though.

    It's when you don't have the ball you look unbelievably vulnerable

    Haven't Utd got the most shots against any team this season ?

    Edit : Pont blank save there, preventing another goal.

    Always looks like Fernandes and the wide players aren’t arsed about defending so the two in midfield struggle (unless they’re playing one of the big clubs). Chief or whoever may disagree and he sees them far more than I do but I’d **** Fernandes off to whoever will take him for a start. Bloke does more harm than good.

    He's probably their most dangerous player though

    At least Fernandes will try and dig Utd out of a hole though. Ozil was just a passenger in games that didn't go our way. Brilliant on his day when the team were flowing, but when we we're up against it, he was useless.

    I don't know why we play Casemiro, quite clear his legs have gone and he just cba anymore. So easy to play around him and through the midfield bcos of him.

    I hope they fluke a few more wins so that Ten Haag stays.

    Ask United to fund half the wages and they probably take it.
