It is a live possibility. Need 4 points out of the next two now at least.

Gutted, angry upset, I love the guy for his united history but time and time again when he faces adversity, when the chips are down, him Carrick and that BELM from Southampton have no idea what to do....


Why did we take a 21 year old 4th choice keeper and put him on the bench?

Why take greenwood in great form and pick Tony over him....

Why the £#%&! did losing a shitty right back cause him to throw on two defenders, one that should have started...

His reaction to in game situations is bizzare and frankly disgusting....

Why take greenwood in great form and pick Tony over him.... resting him. Easing him into the season. Will start Sunday. Is still only 19.

Why the £#%&! did losing a shitty right back cause him to throw on two defenders, one that should have started... mental. Did think Lindelof would start, and could understand going to 3 at the back, but don’t think either was the right plan

So a complete and utter shit show, agreed.

Sobering when you put it like that.

I honestly dont think we can ever win a trophy under him. Due to the issues you have outlined above....

We have a good chance of making it out the group stage. Of getting top 4 again. But is that our level now. Happy with that? 2013 was our last premier league title. We are finished huh??

Taking young players on aways is a time honoured tradition I think you have to have 2 keepers on the bench too.

. yeah 3 years into his tenure i'm sure they'll start working on that any day now. "Lads have you thought about keeping the ball and not punting it up the wings like johnny wilkinson at twickenham?"

Bad news but You need an actual midfield for "possession based football". Actually, correction, you need midfielders that are capable of playing simple, intelligent football. Not a Brazilian Gremlin, The Iron Serb and McJarhead.

I know mate. I was one of the people saying a dm should be a priority signing when everyone else was saying all we need is a striker, and here we are.

Still think we should be able to pass the ball at least a bit with what we have. Been was doing it quite well I thought.

interesting when you think about it. Ole's best results against the best teams are when we dont have the £#%&!ing ball PSG, City etc etc

Rest a 19 year old? But give 150 minutes to the 36 year old. Mmmm OK.

They’ve struck a deal for him not to go away with England first half of the season. Implies they’re trying to manage his football for whatever reason

Ole. He spoke to Southgate and he asked them not to pick him in the last international break and the October one as it’s better he stays at United.

I follow united not England...

. according to the Daily Mail.

So what's the deal all about, he doesn't go the internationals if we leave him on the bench in Europe ?

Clearly United news tbh.

He doesn’t go to international breaks and we can manage his game time. Making sure he’s not overused and can develop, so it seems.

The Giggs Protocol.

Player of the month and a 19 year old kid isn't able to play 10 minutes away in Switzerland midweek...
