For me this is crazy.
half decent teams beat us. It’s half way through the season.

I think even your biggest detractors will have to admit you were right pal. This is as bad as anything served up by the previous clowns. Shite owners, and their shite flunkies aren't coaching, and picking the team.

I’m starting to have my concerns over Erik. Not saying I want him out, but the seeds of doubt have been sown with the The Scottish Player %@#$&!s.

we've got to that stage of the game where the opposition just keep falling over and given free kicks. nice.

hammers fans giving it out, as if they haven't been absolute £#%&!. any half-decent united team would have put ten past these clowns.

Yep. I’m sure there will be plaudits galore afterwards and you’ve got that dunce Joe Cole being deployed pitchside like some TNT Sports Arnie Pye, but don’t them fool you - They were there for the raking first half. We’re just too shit to do it

Sexton era is the last time we were this dull to watch. Onana is shocking yet plays every week. Antony is a one trick pony and that one trick is a Tommy Cooper one. Hojlund is league 1 level at best and Rashford wants away. Midfield creates nothing but the lack of desire is shocking. Ten Hag has to go. He sets the tone and many of the players are his signings. Christmas ruined. Bah humbug

You mean Onana, Hojlund and Antony?

LVG was shit to watch but at least he was funny.

Give it Teddy till the end of the season.

We have a forward line bursting with pace, yet we play this tippy tippy crap that lets every team in the league get their full 11 back behind the ball before we get anywhere near their goal, with the inevitable result.

We compound that failure by using practically our whole team in the attack meaning that, when we inevitably lose the ball, there’s a mad panic as those that can be bothered, try to run back to defend the counter-attack.

It’s terrible, and it gives me no joy to say this, it’s the manager’s fault.

I’ve had enough.

It’s been said, but Erik isn’t helping himself. His hand was forced last week with Bruno out, but he HAD to keep that same midfield shape again and instead he reverted to type. Bruno and The Scottish Player cannot play together. Too chaotic and The Scottish Player, as you say, just doesn’t give enough to justify the goals he might get (we’re four games without a goal so it’s not even paying off)

We wanted him gone in the summer and he’s not changed at all as a player. It’s testament to our desperation that he’s there.

And only 1 shot on target.

£#%&! Sancho.

8th in the league with a minus 5 goal difference. Haven't scored in 4 games. Have lost more games than we've won.

Merry £#%&!ing Christmas.

We just accepted defeat the moment they scored the first goal - no fight in this gutless lot

That little #@&%!head is in no way the solution. He’d be sauntering around rolling the ball under foot before running into traffic like the rest of them.

On the players that, the lack of desire disgusting in the first half, set the tone...

The @#%&!ting on Boxing Day will be curtains for him.

Most defeats before Christmas since 1930.
