My wife wants me to go out and help clean up the back yard so it's all ready for spring time.

I think I will. FML.

Worst half of the season so far, so much for us not being a soft touch anymore. When it matters in such a huge game to prove top four credentials and we haven't turned up, not one player.

This is where our lack of experience exposes us, especially in the middle of the park.

Need to buy players with genuine pace in the summer as we are so fucking slow all over the pitch not only that but we have been totally shit today, need 6 or 7 players in the summer, looking at Southampton earlier and we don't look anywhere near as good as them!

The two are nowhere near as good as they are being made out to be. Bentaleb could be, mind.

Mason, however, offers nothing. In my opinion.
I've made my opinion on it known many times but for me Bentaleb is already very good with the potential to be world class. However, at this point in time he isn't 100% consistent yet. Today he's slightly off.

Mason is nothing special imo, but it's nice to have a club trained player come through.
Like I say in almost every thread, Mason should play vs the bottom 10 clubs where the extra attacking thrust is useful and it doesn't matter as much if he loses the ball (which he does, a lot). Dembele/Stambouli need to play vs any decent team, especially away at OT.

Man Utd pressed us well. No one had time on the ball. We paniced and dont look comfy on the ball; sloppy passing. Chadli was ok. Townsend/Walker/Dier were bad.

I don't even know what to say, this performance has been a whole new level of bad.

Have we even had a shot off target let alone on target?

sobering.
no one has played well, but walker has looked beyond useless. their main tactic is load up 2 men our right back and hit the long ball and it has worked time and time again.

bentaleb made a costly error, but no doubt he will make more as he is still learning.

man u are playing well, give them credit for that, but there is no excuse for making someone like ashley young world class. Rooney is playing well, but more because we are letting him play that well.

i said earlier in the week that fazio should have played and i stick by that.

never expected to win this game, but certainly didnt expect a thrashing either.

can only get better second half.

Psychologically we beat our selves from the start. Did you see the way we seemed transfixed in Tunnel? Like scared rabbits in the headlights

does anyone else think they've over watered the pitch and then put long studs on? OUr players keep falling over and their's don't.
