Man Utd Thread:

[yellowcard]

Ibrahimovic is a tube picking up a massive pension, he should be plying his trade in the US or Qatar. Should be dropped after missing a bagful again today.

Room service tonight?

Burnley rode their luck throughout, one of the most one sided 0-0 games I have ever watched. Two former Manchester United players Heaton,Keane were very good for Burnley.

Utd fans blaming Rooney a month ago for Utds poor form now blaming Zlatan 😂

Ridiculous to be blaming any individual players when the team has 36 shots, 75% possession, hit the woodwork twice and the Burnley goalkeeper pulls off world class saves.

8 points off the top now when could be only 4 points as today and Stoke should have been beaten comfortably.

How is it ridiculous to blame a guy for failing to score with all those chances when he is being paid an astronomical amount of money. It's his job and he has failed to produce......again. I always thought Ibrahiomovic was over rated but the one thing you couldn't knock was his goal scoring record. Now that he can't buy a goal I don't know what else he offers. Should be playing Rashford and Martial up front.

Burnley's first point away from home this season

[GJL]

Hard to understand today. Massive amount of possession along with plenty of shots but no goals. Keeper has game of his life. Could of been 5-0. With Herrara out now will he give Carrick a go? Ibra has hit a drought but at least he is getting himself in positions to get the chances. They will start hitting the back of the net soon. (I hope)

[StGallsGAA]

Tough one alright.  Even with 10 men United attacked as if 11.   Could have had 4 or 5 yes but when Zlatan is finding it hard to buy a goal he should not be the first man on the team sheet! Sort in out Jose!

Sounds like LFC under Rodgers the first season. He used to love bombarding us with possession stats, and the woodwork was hit more often than the net.

To be fair today was unfortunate. United played well and were desperately unlucky. I couldn't really fault the team or even the selection (too much) until Jose started making ridiculous substitutions from the stand which broke up United's momentum. Ibrahimovic missed a few chances he'd usually never miss but his general play was really good. We need to see more of Rashford and Martial through the middle though.

Of course the manager embarrassed himself and the club with his antics again and turned the ref against United. The one where a United player was lifted out of it on the right hand side of the box was a penalty and a yellow - the Burnley player did get some of the ball but it was a wild challenge that went through the United player) and there were a few more decisions that he was not inclined to give. He's a human being and if you're abused from a height you'd tend to react the same way. Ferguson always challenged referees (it's done at every level by everyone, or should be) but obviously Mourinho crossed the line or has previous. The guy is a liability and I think he has lost it. He lost the plot last year with Eva Carneiro and hasn't regained it. I hope to God he walks sooner rather than later, he has become a parody of himself.

Where is " Silver linings " Maroon Manc ??

[lurganblue]

had the pleasure    of watching Utd at the weekend there.  Jaysus how many chances do they need to score a goal fs! Clattenburg was harsh at times too.  I'd have given at least one of the pen shouts.

There's still problems at utd that havent really been addressed.  If big wig is still getting minutes then you know things arent right.

Oh and Blind's set pieces were a shambles.

[Maroon Manc]

The most one sided 0-0 I've ever seen. We should have scored at least 5 or 6 times, can't fault the players apart from the finishing. Prior to Herrera getting sent off United were creating a very good chance every 2-3 minutes. I thought Mata and Pogba were superb in the 2nd half and taking Mata off and replacing him with Rooney simply didn't work. I was complaining about the bench before the game and it turned it there was nothing on it that helped in the end. We saw plenty of 0-0's under LVG where we created next to nothing and the football was dire whilst in the 2 home draws against Stoke & Burnley we've played some great football.

Thats the 3rd time this season a ref has shafted us and probably the 2nd time its cost us points so we're certainly due a decision over the next month.

We've got to go on a run and start winning games, looks like we'll have to beat Arsenal & Spurs at home to get us closer to the top 5. I'm not worried yet but if that gap increases to more than 7 points from top 4 then we're in trouble.
