Yeah - we can't judge him because he's still young and learning
Go 'learn' in League 1, not here please
Bentaleb was solid today. If anything , Lennon is the one who should be called out in the MF
Yes!
Whatever Simon Dawkins did to have a contract with the club for so long? Bentaleb must have dirt on Sherwood.
I blame DL for making a poor decision. The buck stops with them
How many circus sackings are we going to tolerate with millions wasted on fees, wages and players!

You are the worst. How you could scapegoat Bentaleb for today. So sad. You're becoming like Sammy was with AVB.
So we'll get a new coach in and there will be performances like this then people will be like 'oh, this guy isn't convincing he needs to sort it out' then they go and we get someone else forever and ever until the end of time.
Guess the City game had an effect on them. Eriksen was good still, at least.

This is EXACTLY what I imagine would happen if we ever have a film based on a match thread here
Soldado is useless and takes away a spot from our midfield. If we're to play one short in the center, we have to have a ball-winner, but instead we're playing a defensively inept 19 year old who even spins the opposite direction of the ball when the ball's played past him.
Was pleased with the Sherwood appointment at first, but now his team selections are just looking so poor, coupled with the decision to bring in no help in the window after seeing the City display. Bentaleb has absolutely no business playing over Capoue.

That is the whole point. Young managers, young players and to a degree even new-to-the-league players.
You simply have to accept these things to happen.
It is OK with me if we want to be a dogmatic sort of club like the post-90's Dortmund (yeah before they won the league and all the hipsters arrived). Just accept any league position from 5th to 20th for the next 10-12 with no real guarantees it will work or the key personel will stick around once we have given them their apprenticeship.
I fully expect the supporters of this to be happy to pay top 4 ticket prices to watch this.
I'm not a Dawson fanboy, I'm 55
does that make me a Dawson Fangran?
He did some good stuff today, no matter - he'll get no credit for it............

We invested nothing this summer. Our net spend was negative. Levy has never trusted a manager and probably never will. I think that's probably the real issue.
To be fair, I only thought Lloris, Walker, Dawson, Vertonghen, Rose, Paulinho, Bentaleb, Lennon, Eriksen, Adebayor and Soldado were shit today so it wasn't all that bad.
I simply cannot understand why no subs were used it is inexcusable if you ask me. Paulinho has just come back from a lengthy injury, Soldado couldn't score in a brothel, Lennon did the square root of fuck all. Just depressing watching that, I don't know what the hell is wrong with us. Yet again we started off terribly, and I was hoping we could pick it up at half time as we normally do under Sherwood yet nothing changed.
Our players look absolutely lost out there as if they don't have a clue what they are supposed to be doing and what role they have in the team. Do we just have a bunch or retards or something or is Sherwood not giving them sufficient instructions?

Good to see you're self aware.
Man U lost to a fortunate bounce and a goal Adam could never produce again. But what they have done is looked to address their biggest weakness. We allow it to fester every January.
