I don’t think we’re *that* bad

One swallow does not make a summer. Players need time to bed in, processes need time to be refined and cultures take time to root. Any newspaper I've read today there's at least one lazy @#%&! offering reasons why ETH should be sacked. Thank £#%&! you don't get such nonsense here.

The heads weren’t down before the first goal. Watch the effort trying to get to players and disrupt the Brighton passing, watch the effort tracking movement and runners. It’s £#%&!ing amateur. If McT or Casemiro had applied the amount of effort they did for that first goal at any level outside of United they’d have been £#%&!ing %@#$&!ed on the pitch and hooked.

It pains me to do so, believe me.

But zero else to do until this hangover wears off. So tough shit.

Dr City has had an absolute mare today.

Fair enough. Glad I could get a you a few minutes closer to a 5pm hair of the dog pint.

He loves a good old “positives after we’ve been £#%&!ing spanked” thread, nqat.

I’m sure he does it just to rub it in.

Don’t waste your time on here, mate. Get back over to Today’s Game thread in case that rapist you like wins a throw in.

do you genuinely believe someone who was never accused of rape is a rapist. or do you just feel big throwing words like that around?

Honestly didn’t feel we played that bad yesterday. Felt like a smash and grab from Brighton.

Get dalot out of the team and keep him on plumbing or plastering duties around Carrington and 2 goals wouldn’t have happened.

Thought Rashford played well as well. Only spark we had, always looked dangerous.

They had more of the ball and more shots on target. It was absolutely nothing like a smash and grab. It was a convincing win by a far better side. As for Rashford, my god almighty I don't know what you were watching, the only thing dangerous about him was taking some poor £#%&!er in the crowd's head off with his shooting.

United are, as Coracao has alluded to, a dysfunctional mess and have been for months. We've started this season with 5 terrible performances even though we've managed to somehow win two of them, and we were lucky that we didn't get stuffed 5-1 yesterday.

Whatever the overeall problem is with this side the manager and the players need to sort it quickly because I'm struggling to see where a win is coming from at the moment with a team this broken.

The lack of knowhow, belief and execution of any kind of game plan is extremely worrying. At 2-0 down yesterday they were all utterly beaten and they had no idea how to get back into the game. It's a scenario we've seen umpteen times away from home last year where they go behind and they just £#%&!ing sink, no fight, no nothing.

Brighton were the very picture of a team working in perfect harmony, everyone was on their game. United are the total opposite, a bodge job of parts that don't fit or complement each other - all working in complete disharmony with nobody entirely sure what their job is or how to do it.

Are we that bad? You bet your £#%&!ing arse we are.

Last time we started a season this badly was in 1989. It felt bad then. It went pretty well from then on.

That was much worse than arsenal. We were comfortably beaten. We never looked that threatening, even when we were on top in the first half.

Well, at least we're safe from relegation. No way we'll finish below Sheff Utd, Everton, Burnley & Luton.

Stay off the drugs mate.

we went down without a fight. at 1-3, they continued to have by far the better chances to score.
