    Man Utd still trying to intimidate the officials. Nice to see them getting disciplined for it.
    I wonder what Mourinho's going to say in the post-match interview?

    Penalty! <laugh>

    3 defeats on the bounce. Taxi for Mourinho?

    Very good first half by Watford and they dug in during a tough second period.
    Two important subs swung it back their way, though the scoreline's rather flattering.
    Well done, Watford. <applause>

    Looks to me they can only play one of Rooney, Pogba and Mata at No10. Can't spend £90m on a defensive midfielder and the other 2 can't play anywhere else.

    Like Citeh, there's a preponderance of attacking players but at the back both teams look iffy.

    14 losses in 32 games for Moronho

    Just as well he doesn't have a reputation for throwing hissy fits or anything...

    The difference is Man United have too many sulky, petulant players who can't focus properly when they are losing. I hope Pochettino manages to elliminate any drop of such nonsense from our squad.

    I wonder whose fault that was?
    1. Referee and Assistants.
    2. Luke Shaw.
    3. Eva Caneiro.
    4. Juan Mata.
    5. Pep Guardiola.
    6. The whole ****ing world barring Mr Mourinho.

    Just like last season. Nobody knows their role, slow tempo with players receiving the ball standing still (despite having speedy players in Rashford and Martial), defence prone to mistakes, heads go down too easily......

    It's deja vu all over again <steam>

    It seems that like with Roy, LVG, BFS, it isn't Mourinho's job to tell Rooney how to play either. Does he have Jedi mind powers?

    I've just come in, oh dear. I asked the question why did Man Utd engage Mourinho after such a bad season last year. That's a BAD defeat. I'm always wary of new coaches who go to a team and they win their first three or four matches filling the whole club and supporters with euphoria. Normally good starts like that with new coaches fade very quickly when the first draw or defeat comes.

    Now Chelsea and Man U meet very soon and I think we're in for a mistake ridden bore fest.

    Mark Hughes may have some time to kill pretty soon. The next name on their list this summer was...Mauricio Pochettino.

    Palace just scored two goals against Stoke as you posted that, so you might be right! <laugh>

    Mourinho: United players need to be more like Ashley Young.

    I don't think he's well. Do you think he's well?
