Utd fans running out of patience with the negative tactics.

Wouldn't be surprised to see Jose throw the toys out of the pram before too long.

In fairness to Lukaku, I'm not sure how any striker can perform consistently against big sides when his team's tactics against big sides generally involve 10 behind the ball and counter attack with caution.

Had Utd played like that last 25 mins for 90 mins they'd have taken something out of that game!



What time did Fellaini come on?

Hate to say I told you so but.....

Hopefully he does fcuk off soon. There's the makings of a decent team there if he just let them play rather than treating every game as an opportunity to show the world how clever he is. And you can drop guys who are out of form. It's not a sign of weakness you twat.

Around about the time Gerrard slipped against Chelsea, when trying to not slip up to win the league  :o

It would have been a lot better to be a ABU surely when Moyles and co were in charge?

Kante coming back yesterday like he'd never been injured was massive.

He was absolutely dominant, that type of player gets into every team in the world and he probably was the difference if you look at Chelsea in Rome and the Chelsea of yesterday.

You'd have to look at the opposition too - one team trying to win, the other marshalled by a tactical dinosaur who's been found out.

Fair enough people want to dig out Jm, but if they are going to do so then do it with facts.
United were the better team for most of the first half. United posed the threat in a good game back and forward between both teams. To say JM went defensive is rubbish and with a bit more care up front there could have been goals.

Chelsea stepped it up second half and fabregas and hazzard took control in mid field. MIssing someone in midfield to control the games at the moment and any team would miss Pogba and Carrick at different points.

Keep making excuses. Eventually it will be clear to all. Carrick is a loss in my eyes but Jose wouldn't play him anyway even if he was fit.

He would play Pogba though who would of had an influence on the game. The Pogba absence is a strange one, there definitely seems to be more to it than is being let on.

United are seriously lacking in midfield without Pogba.  No creativity whatsoever.  Herrera was meant to be some sort of passmaster when he arrived but has never lived up to that billing.  United definitely need to strengthen in that department, because even with Pogba another creative midfielder is required for variety and in the case of when Pogba is out injured.  Saw stats today specifying the number of chances created per game with Pogba against without Pogba.  Mkhitaryan is not the player I hoped he would be.

Honestly? United were played off the park. This is no bias of any kind. Bar Rashford headed chance I struggle to remember United doing anything of note until Felliani took the ball down superbly it must be said and had his chance in injury time. Only for Chelsea poor finishing, they could have scored maybe 4 or 5. And that's not including the disallowed own goal....which was a soft one.
