1-0 down at halftime and Maureen is parking that bus AGAIN.

These last 4 or 5 Premiership matches have been awful. I'm convinced that he's dropping points on purpose the same way that Giggsy did when he took over from Moyes years ago to avoid 5th place.

Fucking hell, Chas 'n' Dave are still alive!!!

[harv]

And that's 2. Game over if we carry on playing like this. Great goal too.

Why would mourinho purposely avoid 5th place, you'll be shoved into the Europa league regardless of league position because you won the league cup.  You'll only get champions league if you beat ajax now.. And on another dreadful performance I wouldn't back them to do that, even if it is just ajax

[harv]

Oops! Forgot about the League Cup!

That 0-0 was that drab from United Harv hasn't even bothered commentating on it.

These last half a dozen or so Premiership matches have been woeful. It's like watching Chelsea from years ago.

No idea what's happened to our attacking, exciting football that Maureen's United were playing when we got all of those draws (yes, I know how that sounds but it was only down to 3 or 4 Man Of The Match performances from opposition keepers having the games of their lives that prevented us from getting 3 points from each match!).

The only thing I can think of is that Maureen is using these matches as extended training sessions parking that bus during competitive matches in preparation for the Final next week

Not the way I like to see sides playing football though, but if it manages to win us the trophy I won't complain too much I guess.

Well its not really like watching Chelsea a few seasons back is it - we won the title back in 2014-15 and broke shit loads of records that season too.  The only record you are likely to break is the amount of home draws in a season.  15 draws in total now, that's nearly half your games and United are only 2 points better off than what Moyes achieved lololol.  Don't forget its all the injuries you've had

Good to see Gomes getting an appearance for the first team today. Remember how I was saying that Rashford was going to be the dog's bollocks..? Gomes is better. Of course the press are making a big deal out of Nani being his godfather and of course there are going to be Ronaldo comparisons but this kid really is something special. I'm hoping that he isn't going to go out on loan because there's no guarantee whether it'#s going to be a good loan or a bad one, annoyingly these things seem to be 50/50. They either get decent first team action or they don't.

I'd much rather that he stays training with the first team and getting the odd appearance in League Cup or maybe even FA Cup matches here and there.

Also good to see Josh Harrop getting a chance too.

All the kids did well this afternoon.
