    The problems there are way deeper than the coach.

    Amad must fancy an escape, surely?

    This could be a cricket score if the mags want it to be. Good side unfortunately. Man Utd though are appalling, i'm not sure how many of their players get into the mags side.

    I reckon he knows exactly what he's doing. He's sending a message upstairs to basically say 'this is the **** I've got to work with'

    I don't think he realised how bad they were when he took the job.

    They need a major overhaul, virtually a full new team. Issue is they will be limited with what they can do in the market and need to sell first.

    Once they are mathematically safe (which sounds ridiculous) I'd be playing some of the kids to see how they are.

    I'd back our midfield 3 to dominate this Man Utd midfield of Eriksen and Casemiro. Both so far past it.

    I had no idea they were this bad. The early goal has took any confidence out and this should be 4 or 5 already.

    Subbed off in the first half to cheers at Old Trafford. Not sure he recovers from this.

    The issue is they've signed players to play a different system and style of play - then gone for a manager who plays a total different system and style of play

    CMs are so important in a 343 formation and it's by far Uniteds worst position, so don't think they have any natural wingbacks either

    He's been no worse than the other players to be fair, formation with this selection is weird

    Never hated Man Utd but despise a footballer being booed (sarcasticly applauded) off by own fans. He's been ****e but so is their whole squad.

    Interesting to see what Man U do in January. I’d expect huge changes next summer but they’re desperate for reinforcements now

    I don't think the CBs fit either. De Ligt is one of the most overhyped players in recent times, he's so stiff and don't get me started on Martinez. An aerially poor centre back in the PL is asking for trouble.

    Ten Hags recruitment has done irreversible damage to that club

    He'll probably make another 2 subs at HT and put Antony on just to show how **** he is as well.

    I’d love Man U to get dragged into a relegation battle <laugh>
