What was Onana up to there?

Rooted to his line and giving up the entire right side of the goal.

Your man was probably going to score no matter what but Onana doesn't cover himself in glory there with his attempts to stop it. Doesn't even try to close him down.

This is the only saving grace that they are out of Europe completely.

Another two injuries last night, squad going to be massively stretched but no Thursday night games going forward gives them the opportunity to get some rest time.

Why is being out of the Europa league a good thing? Are we not trying to win trophies? What good is struggling into top 4 so we can have another calamitous champions league next year. If that's the height if it then we should just give up. That tool Ole was the king of picking crap sides in semi finals to rest players for the league and what in hell did that achieve?

Ten Hag I'm afraid is another spoofer. Played the hard man and got rid of Ronaldo but then failed to get rid of any of the other shite and worse then brought a whole load more rubbish in.

[Jeepers Creepers]

Do betting men not always bet against Europe's league teams playing at the weekend after a Thursday outing?
The fear of getting beat last night competency nullified any minimal prospect they had of scoring. Liverpool game will be another murder picture.
In fairness to ETH, no-one expected the Sancho situation to arise or Rashford going off the boil so quickly. Never mind  the injury list. Fellas under some serious pressure and with Ratcliffe rumours of a clear out surfacing. I don't envy him one bit

Ronaldo openly defied him and that  needed addressed, any self respecting manager would have done the same.  His business in the transfer window has left him wide open to criticism so I fully agree question marks arise over that.

Regarding the other muck lingering about, we'll paid long term contracts have hampered him in getting them flogged off, as they won't leave as they won't get lucrative deals elsewhere, so that issue was not of his making. 

Thursday night football is a balls of a thing, the travelling and lack of recovery, chances of picking up injuries etc.  I agreee any competition is worth playing, and given they are not competing for the league, they should have made dame sure they had something else to play for.

All set up for a United win at Anfield on Sunday!!!  Nothing to lose,  pressure off,  all pressure on LFC we table toppers...United will take great pleasure in being party poopers!!

Another ETH issue I would have would be his reluctance to go for the established Premier league players such as Kane/Rice, instead, opting for Hojlund, untested and too young to carry a team.  A question Scholes and ferdinand brought up last night. 

Perhaps squad wage budgets wouldn't have allowed for Kane to join, but the question certainly needs asked

The absolute state of that United  squad prevented  Kane  from signing.

In both games last year, the form team coming in lost. The OT game at the start of the season, days after United were hammered at Brentford, relaunched Rashford. And United went to Anfield with one defeat in 11 games, just won the LC and knocked Barcelona out in Europe, while Liverpool were hopelessly inconsistent.

As long as Liverpool is under 2 nil I'd say most fans be happy enough to be brutally honest; thats how much the standards have dropped. In fairness now a lot of people said when Rasford gets his new deal he'll go back to being shite, but it would have took a brave man to let him go in the summer. Sancho was another club call, should have known about his discipline issues and not signed him but I suppose it's easy to say that in hindsight.

They must be tempted to get that Greenwood p***k back in, let the protestors protest and cry. Badly need goals and I don't see where else they'll come from.

Spurs were not selling Kane to United last summer and looked like Rice didn't want to leave London and Arsenal had put plenty of groundwork in last season. United should have been in for him the summer they bought Casemiro but once again were in full panic mode after wasting all summer chasing DeJong.

More concerned with missing out on Haaland & Bellingham who were both well within Uniteds grasps for peanuts. United should always be in for the top English talent when it comes available but all the top English players are at big clubs now, some might see Mount was a top player but we've not seen that yet although at least he was desperate to join United ahead of Liverpool/Arsenal.

United have been massively incompetent, Cole Palmer is a United fan as are all his family yet he signed for City and United were in for him. That shouldn't happen, they've even had to pay to take Darren Fletcher's twins to OT from City and the two biggest talents to come through the academy in 20 years in Morrison & Greenwood both turned out to be wronguns, both should have turned into world class players although Greenwood may well do down the line albeit away from OT.

A major clearout is required but thats been the case for years and its not happened.

Utd can only get players to sign if they throw money at them. Huge paydays. Anyone with aspirations of winning anything are giving them a wide berth. Until the Glazers are out that will not change.

If Ferguson was still at United they'd have bought Kane years ago. They'd have likely snapped up Rice and Bellingham cheap enough as well before they hit the levels they're at now.

I don't think Liverpool are even in great form despite being top of the keague. Struggled for wins against Fulham, Palace and Sheff Utd and played okay for the draw with city. Goals from the front 3 have dried up as well.

United have won 5 premier leagues and a European Cup under the Glazers. They have thrown over £400m at ETH since he took over. What more do you want from them??? Please stop this charade that they are the problem!

"But Ten Hag doesn't get the transfers he wants!"
Guess what, neither does Klopp alot of the time. He's done just fine regardless.
