The Manchester United Thread

Came for a point, got a point. Not much else to say. Although you got to wonder how much Mourinho has to spend before he stops playing like a scared man, because quarter of a billion is apparently is not enough.

Wont make a difference who we have or how much we spend. Mourinho will always go not to lose against his main rivals, has been like that everywhere. Even at the mighty Madrid.

Tbh I just don't like that style of play, especially when we have a team capable of far more.

He's been scared shitless of Klopp ever since 4-1 *** whooping.
 
Playing for the 0-0 when they've kept 2 clean sheets so far and you've banged in 21 in the league alone.

I mean in a title run in, i get it.. but you'd could have really thrown down some attacking intent, its only game 8, Jose. It was supposed to be all different from last year. **** poor United today. a points a point but christ lad.

Really disappointed in Lukaku today. These types of games do not suit him one bit. He's target man play was atrocious at times. Ball needs to stick to him and he let Lovren bully him once again.

Hard to criticise him off that service tbh. His hold up play has been great this season.

We have been saying all week he would sit deep and look to hit on the counter. First half it worked 2nd it didn’t.

Top teams? Mate, you're talking about 7th place Liverpool, not a 2008 Pep's Barcelona.

Hey rude. Seriously though considering how out of form weve been this was a chance for Utd to lay down the guantlet. All it took was a quick one two and Lukaku had already walked inbetween our two CBs and had a clear cut chance.

My bad. Mightve got mixed up with hearsay from online in general. But you did get it wrong though utd didnt even bother playing on the counter, poor martial was playing as a second FB for most of the second half tbh.
 
Can’t believe people thought Mourinho would play this any other way. Massively missed Fellaini and Pogba today. More of a miss than Mane for Pool.

Thank god. I wouldve probably put a foot through my TV if elbows had scored the winner from a header.

Nope. Said we're better equipped to execute the '****** and grab' plan, as we have more pace in the side now. But we were woeful when we had the ball. No composure at all. Young was decent, that's about the height of it.

Herrera and Matic were terrible passing today. Which is unusual! Both did there jobs well breaking up play though. Jones looked uncomfortable playing next to Smalling. Watching it back now he never looked comfortable passing him the ball.
 
Alc said:
Undoubtedly yes and he struggled badly when Arsenal did the same in last years FA Cup final. Hardly any Chelsea fan was truly unhappy when we sold him tbh.

Well that's a complete lie. Even the manager was ****** off
 
We went for a smash and grab. It didn't pay-off. I'll take a point before the game so can't complain now
