Match Threads ManU Vs Spurs

[Tonio]

Don’t think I’ve seen us lose so many 50 50 challenges this season. Everything seemed to fall To a united player.

Afraid to get a knock before the World Cup. Cowards to a man almost. Should be fucking dropped for it imo. No fight at all. Like I said earlier, shameful.

Thing is, we are not getting better. With every game we seem to be gradually playing worse. We are playing like we did under José (yet with better players).

We have spent a lot of money and imo on good players. So the only finger that points, points to Conte.

Turgid football, we could get top 4, I'd be absolutely amazed if we actually won something, even if we did, it'd be hard to enjoy watching week in week out of this shit.

Honestly can't remember a game this season where I've watched it and gone. Good game. It's always been percentage stuff.

We are all still waiting for us to click into gear. Doesn't look like it's going to happen though.

Worst thing is after 150m spend (or whatever) we are still hoping that Kane does something. Shite

The problem is, as I feared, £150M is what is required to tread water.

I agree but I mean this is the one game that has left me very discouraged. I've been somewhat disappointed with the majority of our games this season with regards to purely the performance but not really discouraged with what the future holds in mind like after that.

I wouldn't pay to watch us with the way we are now I have to be honest.

We have struggled to beat lower prem sides and then lost to top half teams. It's not good.

Has there been anything said about when Kulu is due to return, cant come back soon enough.

Feels like it’s dragging on forever, I don’t expect a return date anytime soon, knowing our communication with injuries.

 

[glacierSpurs]

You may laugh but we really missed Emerson tonight.

His running and determination is an important outlet for us when we are suffering.

I read as he's an important outlet for us to vent when we are suffering ???

 

[EastLondonYid]

Worryingly outplayed from minute 1 to minute 92

Disagree

We were poor 93rd and 94th too.

 

[alfie103]

If Son or Kane don't play well, we are just a midtable team.

Yeah that too.

Remember after the Woolwich game Conte got slated for not playing 3-5-2?
Doesn't matter what system you play if the you don't have players of sufficient quality to master that system.
Too many average / just above average players in our squad.
For 10 years we have had one of the best strikers ever to play in the Prem and won nothing - what a despicable waste!

 

[wspur]

Wish we could skip to after the WC, these remaining games will be terrible with so many from our squad thinking about it. This and Conte's inflexibility will destroy our season

 

[Hoddlegenius]

Get well soon, Kulu - your team needs you!

 

[TOLBINY]

We keep not turning up for these sort of games, as a fan it's incredibly disheartening fuck knows how the players must feel.

It's the players who don't turn up!

 

[Northernspurs]

First time I have blamed conte

I really don't think we have a bad squad. How come all players we get were good before, good when they leave us and shit here? It's the way we are set up

 

[Tiberius Gracchus]

It's the cowardly players trying to stay fit for the world cup. As soon as that farce is over, this spurs team will look amazing.

But if I was Conte I'd be telling them that if they play like a bunch of pricks then I'd replace them in january and the summer

 

[TheChosenOne]

All the PL team managers will have been watching and have learned a lot about us tonight.

That’s a worry

 

[Tonio]

Those having a pop at Conte must be delusional.

We aren't winning the league with fucking Dier, Davies and Doherty at the back.

Holberg is bang average also if we're honest. Conte has us about where we should be, or if anything is over achieving with this squad.

Yep.

 

[EastLondonYid]

First time I have blamed conte

Welcome aboard

Absolutely bang on.

 

[Flobadob]

Utd won't play with that hunger or intensity in those games though. We caught them on a bad night and they duly punished us.

Doesn't excuse the players, but it played a part. No teams seem to be winning these tough away games currently.

Very disappointed with the players and manager tonight regardless.

You can’t rock up at Old Trafford against a top 4 rival and get your belly tickled like that though. Absolutely no excuse for it. Poor tactics, under par quality of players, under par mentality going into a battle, United were up for a war to win those points and our guys played like scared little pussies. This isn’t just one game either, our points total when you look at our performances this season is incredibly flattering
