I was surprised at how bad you were tonight. Easiest game we’ve had at Old Trafford all season.
Jose really got his tactics wrong. Apart from Rashford I thought we were ordinary.

Aurier , Sissoko , winks , Sanchez , dier , rose , eriksen
Not expecting a win mate but expecting a performance. We were shite, didn’t lay a glove on them.
Jan was fine, they didn’t even bother to target his side as they knew he would be hard to get past. They focused all their energy on the triangle of Aurier, Sanchez and Sissoko who are our three most limited players and it worked a treat.
Never has.....
Yeah your right , it’s going to take Jose a while to make a proper impact , I just think the midfield of winks and sissoko wasn’t and will never work and it seems like he refused to change it
Not quite as magnificent as that, but he definitely said something along the lines of ‘his game is going forward’. Sounds to me like an instruction to bomb forward when we’re in possession and left Sissoko fill in for you as you make your way back.
I could be wrong. It’s been known.
Honestly, we were so crap tonight, it seems pointless calling out individuals.
What is wrong with you?
Just doesn’t appear to be any sense whatsoever in playing Eriksen who left the building long ago. How on Earth can Lo Celso get up to speed without game time? It just beggars belief
I do think Kane has to have a look at himself tonight. I really do.
The most obvious issue was how the top 3 did not rotate very much ( if at all ) Kane, Son and Lucas should be switching positions much much more.
Christ I am so pissed off.
Chill out mate, this is like the 4th one of these I’ve seen
Can someone check on
bus-conductor
please? I’m concerned he may well have had a heart attack watching Sissoko tonight. Not his best game I’m afraid. That midfield really is an issue for us isn’t it.

Fast forward. Winks is now 34 & playing under his 8th spurs manager. Still no trophies. "Its all those managers fault! The playing talent is there".
Shut the fuck up.
For those of you using this to score some cheaps points by bleating on about Poch, just fuck off, he's gone.
And even if he was still here, all we would be hearing about last few weeks would be "Is he going to take the United job when Ole gets sacked"
He had his chance, we gave him 5 years and he returned zero silverware.
The players weren't playing for him, everyone was far too comfortable, you can see the rot has well and truly set in, these are not shit players they have been mismanaged for a lot time.
We've seen Mr Nice Mourinho, I think they need to hear Mr nasty Mourinho in the dressing room tonight, all the way home on the coach and tomorrow at extra training.
That performance like so many was not acceptable for that group of players.

At least we got the first loss out of the way early.
That's positive at least. But heads will roll now.

The rose glasses that people view Sissoko with really needs to stop right now. “He puts a great shift in”. Absolute grade A dung. He’s useless and has no business starting at central midfield in any team who have aspirations of being successful.
Any of his fans come at me.
He was practically in midfield at one point.
