Totally.

Some of the bed pissing on here.

End of season game, nowt to play for, players trying to not get injured for a final.

£#%&! me though, we miss Maguire. Both full backs were awful.

Thought this, players not putting in a 100% incase they get injured.

Shaw on the challenge that led to their goal especially.

It’s not like much has changed for us, we’re still 2nd. It just feels so shit. Leicester winning the fa cup, city strolling the league and probably the European cup and us stuttering like £#%&!ing melons safe in the knowledge that nothing fundamentally will change for us next season because we have the shittest owners in the world.

Well, Tielemans actually, and not just for his strike on Saturday but also for making a mug of Matic for the 2nd goal in the 1/4’s.

Which he then did again last week in the league game.

But Fred is shite too tbf.

Well it wasn't that outrageous to presume they wouldn't play again until Wednesday, yet more brilliant scheduling from the authorities.

Great to be back in old Trafford

Didn’t see it, but lad thrown out for chucking a a green and gold scarf at Shaw. Looking at a ban.

Luke.

I’ll forgive him for that shithouse challenge for the equaliser.

Awful performance. Really profligate in front of goal and a whole manner of shitty, £#%&!y flicks that get you £#%&!ing nowhere at this level. Poor defensively throughout and the goal we conceded was dire.

It's been a really underwhelming week tbh

Is it too much to ask one of our 200k a week players to put their foot on the ball and show some ruthlessness, be a bit f***ing clinical?

The amount of stupid flicks, half-arsed stupid attempted nutmegs and dozy tricks they try and pull off in the final 3rd rather than do something with a bit of conviction. Deliver a killer ball, be first to the ball in the box, hit a f***ing ball first time rather than doing endless dummies and cut backs, attack the f***ing game like you want to win it. At the end you've got Fulham players, already relegated, nothing to play for, hurling themselves into challenges like it means something, while ours are 2nd to everything.

At this stage if you were a betting man you'd put your house on Villarreal doing us 1-0, we look absolutely finished. Done. You couldn't drag a performance out of us at the moment.

Absolutely spot on.

had draw written all over it from the start of the second half.

not remotely arsed though. Cavani cracker. Second guaranteed. Hopefully a trophy in a week.

Our lack of intensity as that game wore on was shocking. I’m not sure how many characters we would previously have classed as winners we have at the club these days. There was a time we’d have thrown the kitchen sink at them; nowadays our lot treat the ball like it’s a hot potato and the extent of their ambition is to get out of every game without being the fall guy.

This is multiple games now with the final whistle going while we’re in the middle of a 20 pass possession. Not the United I know.

Won 9 of 19 home games.

What exactly is this mental block they have at old Trafford?

Our home results this season:

L-L-D-L-W-D-W-W-W-L-W-D-W-W-W-W-L-L-D

We took a while to get going and seem to have lost steam when we had little left to play for. 9 wins in 19 at home, all of which came during a 12 game period. 11 wins from 18 away. Possibly just a sign of home and away meaning less with empty stands. If it continues next season, then it's definitely an issue.

Surprisingly, only Chelsea, Spurs and City have more points at home than us this season.
