Bailly is a f
king moron of a defender, I thought he was the next big thing during his debut season, but once again, Mike is coming out as our best CB again.
How many freekicks do we need in good positions to test the keeper?? Pogba should take them all...and when Zlatan comes back in January he can take them. Three golden freekick opportunities yesterday. I've given up completely on corners now and apart from the fluke crosses we put in against Watford no one apart from Fellaini even attempt to head the ball IF it gets passed the first man.
I was a big supporter of Mou and that first year of two trophies was the right steps...but i fear the end is nigh. Just have no idea who is best to replace him? Everyone saying ZiZu, but will he need more help from above that perhaps Woody won't give him? Poch - cost too much, Wolves guy looks good, as does the Leeds manager? Promote Carrick and whatshisname to head coaches and put up with this crap for a whole season? LVG is available...

I like what he does. United is of course a huge job, but I reckon that he's the type of young manager that understands how these modern day footballers think. He's tactically astute and he's getting results in a pretty tough league.
I don't want to change the manager. I want to stop the slide and for everybody involved to improve what they are doing.
If a change happens, it happens. I'll do my utmost to continue supporting the side through the troubled times. Last night was tough though.
Seriously, guys, watch the match again and notice who played all our good passes. And who made all the decent forward runs with the ball (aside from a couple from Rashford). Pogba won us free kicks on the edge of the box and created at least 3 good chances.
Sure, he didn’t run about as much as some would like, but if others were playing well, he would be making plenty of goals.

Funny you say that, he would be my No 1 choice for Tottenham were we to lose poch to you (or anyone else), on top of what you said he also plays football thats very easy on the eye.

Hugely underrated manager, everything about him is impressive imo.

Get a grip ORD he's been an absolute disgrace. I couldn't give a fSure, he didn’t run about as much as some would like, but if others were playing well, he would be making plenty of goals.
k if he'd beaten 10 men and scored the winner. He was given the armband at the start of the season and he's slapped Jose in the face with it. His ego is out of control and he needs to shut the f
k up and let his football do the talking. He's been bang average yet still continues to undermine the manager. That is not the expected behaviour of a united player let alone vice captain. He wants to be respected in the same way Ronaldo and messi are well STFU and do what you did in the derby last year every game and he'll start getting that respect as opposed to the odd game in 6.

Hold me.... 
Still waiting for that good run we're going on? 
Nothing about this team makes me think we're capable of anything other than being s
te.Zidane and Scholes for me and bring back Rene.
Why on earth would ZZ be interested at present ?

Has Scholes shown any interest in getting involved in coaching?

He came back when giggs asked and I'd rather he stopped throwing bombs from TV studios and imparted some knowledge from within. Why on earth would ZZ be interested at present ?
I didn't say ZZ would be interested but it appears that Jose's lack of playing experience is costing him at largest clubs with players with comparable egos and influence. There isn't a bigger figure in the game available and imho that's what is needed.
These 2 walk in to the United dressing room a simple medals out conversation puts the egos to bed.
