Manchester United (h) 17Dec2023

[Venton]

Poor from us. But we got what we deserved today.

This attack isn't working for us. Mo is off the boil. Diaz and Nunez are not good enough. Jota is crocked most of the time. We need more striking options. There is absolutely no fluency up front at all, they're all playing separately.

[danperkins]

We've been scraping games the last few, this was coming. Dreadful display and gifted them a point.

[labourRed]

Look - we are way ahead of where we should be in terms of league position for a side bring rebuilt. The last few games have shown our level even though we’ve won the games - this has been coming. Next week can Arsenal will be a big indicator of where we are

Play the kids midweek and try to get some freshness back

Arsenal will do us. No problem for them. With Odegaard they'll run the midfield. Szoboszlai is playing on reputation, not form.

This team is all about getting top four, no further, I'm afraid.

[Tatterdemalion]

Absolutely no chance we have of winning the league. We're dishing up these performances week in week out. No team have ever won a league playing so poorly. The sample is half a season tbf.

I don't think that's true. I think we have a great chance of winning the league. We do need to be a little better in the 2nd half, but it's not like we are out of the running. If we are where we are playing badly, chances are we'll be better 2nd half.

[Tribute]

Won’t win anything playing as poorly as that. Wasted umpteen chances and shooting from stupid positions with Utd defenders standing right in front. Worst performance ai’ve seen this season.. disjointed, lethargic and sloppy as ****. Didn’t deserve anything from today.

[Charly]

We wont get a better chance for the league... but this team has too many problems, starting up front.

Been miles off it for weeks and the results are disguising the performances… until today.

Nah - I think we close again this season.

I said in another thread winning when you play badly is a good habit to have, but if you are playing badly regularly sooner or later it catches up with you.

I thought Diaz was pretty good, by far the best of the three. Doesn’t really look like scoring but gets us up the pitch in good positions.

Yup, lost all fluidity and movement in the recent month of fixtures. Players not on the same wavelength and overhitting most passes in the final third. Not to mention the poor finishing and decision making. We’re in a battle for top four, not the title…

Reminded me of Baros today, head down went nowhere.. no end product.

[Kenneth]

I know the stats, always the stats, but Harvey instead of Salah and we create more goal scoring chances in that game.

not sold on him at all, same with Nunez.
