I've never seen Poch like this. I like it
He can see that Manure are shite and we should be taking them to the cleaners here.

This is a huge oppo to get an away result at a direct competitor for honours.

But, he also needs to have a look at himself and see that Eriksen needs to drop right off and pick the ball up early.

And Amos or Winks needs to come on for Dier (sooner, rather than later).

We need to be more cohesive and compact. We look disjointed.

Dropping Eriksen in will tie it all together.

4 out of 5 back five and Moura only one's to turn up, Poch can't sub that many so needs to give them an ass kicking at HT and see who responds

Im still confident.

As long as a couple of Kane, Eriksen, Moose and Alli pull their socks off.

Poor first half Dier worst of the lot. Kane needs to play up front ffs

Stop f*cking drifting Harry!!!
I genuinely feel he thinks that he needs to play more like Messi and supply assists and dictate the tempo of the game. It’s a joke tho, he’s a center forward and needs to stay there.

Fucking refs bottling it once again.

I actually thought we did ok. Should have a pen and should of made more of the chances we had. But Eric Dier....give it up. Nowhere near goodenough as a centre mid.

Kane has been so poor in possession for so long and its magnified again today. What happened to him? Still bangs in goals but he's not the complete striker he used to be. Rose, Eriksen, and Dier have also been poor.

Struggling to see why Rose was picked today. He's not the player he was and has proved a liability.

Kane needs to stop taking that extra touch and playing by his instincts again, then he’ll be back to his best.

I'm sorry but I don't buy United just all of a sudden playing brilliantly, I just knew we were gonna make them seem better than they are.
They have actually missplaced a number of passes in the midfield. But we have been woeful so it seems like Utd are playing well.

Rose and Dier are sloppy and uninterested. Eriksen is hiding. Kane trying to do too much. Dele trying be a glory boy

Wouldn't mind him being more of a glory boy, thought he spend too much time thinking about his move when he snapped the ball and went on goal. Kane was in the middle, but Smalling covered both pass and part of the goal. Dele should have been more decisive, gone more direct on goal and shot earlier.

This is a type if game that to me highlights how much someone with good vision and passing ability in the centre of midfield would help, especially when Eriksen isn't getting himself into the game.

United are there to be hurt but we really haven't shown the composure to take advantage.

Kane is dropping deep because we have no control of the midfield. Beggars belief that it was ignored in the transfer window.
