  3. Mkhitarayan already causing us big problems - finding too much space.

    Nobody offered a pass from Kane. That is why he dithered and got caught. :(

    Very un-Kane-like to be sloppy in possession but we were pushed up so far, United easily scored. Frustrating usual story of high possession but doing bugger all with it.

    Good to see shirt-grabbing is rid from the game.

    Half Time Report: Usual high pressing, possession football that delivers little shots or chances at goal. Continue to insist on squeezing game into a third of the pitch, making space near zero yet we insist on trying to score the perfect goal by taking several extra touches and wasting the opportunity.

    Why we continue to play this way that bares little fruit is beyond me.

    Wish we would actually create chances rather than hope the ref would give us a penalty at old Trafford against a team managed by Mourinho.
    We are making the worst United team in quarter of a century look good.
    A whole TWO shots on target in a half is rubbish

    Spurlock and Roo like this.
  16. Pundits at halftime mention everything except the obvious penalty - now there's a surprise!

    Especially when from the week before you know the tempo that must be played.
    I really do believe that Pochettino does not give the hairdryer treatment.

    Poor decision making by the ref. Plays advantage when there isn't any.Doesn't play it when we have a break on. Obviously no one has told him about the crackdown on shirt-pulling.

  19. Know where you are coming from RCL but Utd aren't that bad a side and unfortunately appear to be coming together more as a team. I thought Mkhitaryan could be a danger before the game and so it has turned out. But letting that little runt Herrera boss things is not acceptable.

    The ref hasn't had the best half but to purely focus on his performance rather than our pedestrian lacklustre pace is no excuse.
