None. Pretty poor affair.

Looks like Utd won the battle for the title of biggest underachievers today.

I know everyone talks about lack of quality in the final third, but Jesus United lack quality in all the thirds...

Utd back to being a top six club

Spurs were a great price at 6/5 against a very poor Utd team, that said it wouldn't have been unfair had they nicked a draw

A pensioner

The marginal gains expert who's success was predicated on TAA therapeutic use exemptions

And Jason Wilcox

In the pantheon of premier league golden years this is right up there with Alan Shearer taking Newcastle down and Stuart Pearce using a soft toy to invoke greatness before throwing a GK on as a striker

Anthony scored in his 3rd consecutive game for Betis...

A draw would have been a fair reflection for how that match played out yesterday. It's going to be the lowest league finish since the 1989/90 season and whatever slim hope United had in the two cup competitions is probably as good as over with the injuries sustained the last week or two.

The season is what it is now at this point, not sure much to be salvaged either way for the league.

All eggs into the Europa Cup and see if they can get CL that route. On the game yesterday was again a poor save from Onana that caused trouble, in saying that there were 3/4 clear chances spurned so could have been a way different result. But at this stage it would have been papering over cracks.

The Mica houses in Donegal probably have less cracks than Man United do at the moment.

Get him back ASAP

It's not always how you start - It's how you finish.....

Just reading this on the Guardian...

Forced to name a bench with Victor Lindelof and eight untried teenagers on it last weekend, Manchester United number Amad Diallo, Lisandro Martinez, Luke Shaw, Mason Mount, Toby Collier and Johnny Evans among the lame and halt clogging up their physio room, but should have Christian Eriksen, Leny Yoro and Manuel Ugarte available after spells out.

Shaw and Mount are never not injured so hardly worth a mention. Evans is another. Collier is a chap, so United are really only missing Diallo and Martinez (another spending too much time injured).

Full squad is average and becomes a bigger problem when eight untried teenagers are named on the bench for any Premier League game.

Another defeat for them today as currently 2-0 behind against Everton.

Amorim gone from the hottest young manager in Europe to a figure of fun with many.

Everytime I hear Amorim speak I can't help but be impressed.

But then you watch the football they are literally creating nothing.

Only positive today is Dorgu looks very good at Left Wing Back.

What's people's thoughts on Amorim?
