FFS!!!!!! Poor ref decision, Naisse should have seen red. 2 Misses and of course their keeper has a worldie.

Just one of them days against the team at the bottom of the log. At least we're one point closer to arsenal

Niasse should've been sent off but we were terrible in the final third. All this possession, all this pushing forward with the ball but as soon as we get in or around their box, we have hardly any ideas. Yet another game were the opposition goalie is the man of the match. Pulled off some blinders from our pot shots. Even though he had a great game we really should've scored, there's a reason Hull were bottom of the log before tonight's game. Would've been the icing on the cake if Hull snatched it at the end. They had two magnificent chances. These draws are really going to come back to haunt us.

Rooney was a useless sub, should have been Martial or even Fellani.

Really irked me with Rooney's sub... we started crossing into the box and he can barely jump 2 inches... that cross from Blind was awesome and what does he do? Over run and barely jumped to win the ball - if Fellaini was there he would have brought it down.
Martial should have been brought on along with Mata not Rooney...

Tactically we failed in the first half, the combination of Pogba, Ibra up front didn't work and Carrick was sleeping in the match - Pogba did pretty well from deep in the second half.

Not sure what's is going on with opposition Keepers they seem to turn into super keepers at Old Trafford - this was a first match for their keeper and he pulled some some amazeballs save

Nah mate, none of the saves he made were really amazing. Just poor finishing. If keepers are always turning into super keepers against you then maybe its a finishing problem and less of an opposition goalkeeping problem.

that's what Ibra says, but how many shots have been good? or just the keeper being bad - i.e through the legs, next to him etc...
Yes Mata's chance was straight at the keeper, Pogba's curling shot was very close to the keeper.

However Pogba's goal in the EPL cup was also considered a bad shot

Yeah its both overall. In this particular match predominately finishing.

Is Griezmann the answer? From what I've seen he gets goals in open games and teams don't play against us like that too much. Most games there are 8-9 behind the ball.

It's a tough nut to crack...we need more pace in midfield, imo.

I believe Mou knows what he is doing and it will take another one or 2 transfer windows before we see what he wants.

The four buys this season alone are making a big difference, the signs are there

What are your thoughts for the end of season?

End of season transfers,
1. Young out,
2. Rooney out
3. ?

We need to replace Rooney (A striker of his quality when on form)

We need to replace Carrick

We need to replace Valencia

We need a quality winger (Or Martial gets more time)

We need a CB

All these small teams coming up against United looking for a draw are only getting themselves caught up in the relegation race.

Jose wants to be in all competitions with a weak squad. That can come crashing down on him in an epic failure if he is unsuccessful.

If we don't win tomorrow I would start Martial over Rashford and Mata over Miki. Can't believe I'm saying this but Fellaini needs to be on the bench.
