Match Day Thread Manchester United FC v Sunderland AFC - Saturday 4th October 2025 - KO 15:00

I must have watched a different match. It was really comfortable for Man Utd. They ripped us apart in the first half and then took their foot off the pedal in the second half.

In fairness, some of their fans have said that’s possibly the best they’ve seen them under Amorim in that first half. We couldn’t get near them.

 

Always worried about Hume in the PL up against quality week in, week out. He’ll be benched soon…imo

 

We are rubbish away wrong players starting and bad defending

 

Was waiting for Monty’s words of wisdom

 

60 PL appearances in the last 2 seasons. He’s more ready than most we’ve got.

 

Was a bit of a sobering result yesterday, but there were also some positives to take from the game.
I don’t think our initial set up was right and RLB intimated as much after the game, however he did react to it but unfortunately the damage was done.
Thought the ref was fairly poor and got quite a few decisions wrong.
I did not think the penalty shouts were penalties but he second one was more of a shout than the first. The one which did annoy me was when Shaw pulls Wilson to the floor and VAR did not review, then spent 3 or 4 minutes reviewing a high boot call that pretty much everybody knew was not a penalty.
