Not seen such Bravery!
Need to sub off a couple of the yellow-card-ees at half time.

Needed to get in and regroup. Would like to see Mooy on for Stephens and maybe Murray for Maupay to add some experience and grit.

I think we're being very unlucky here, sure we've been disjointed at best, mediocre at worst but they've had a massive slice of luck pie with both the goals - that's football sometimes. Yet again, in spite of our best efforts, the stats prove that we're far from being blown away. GP needs to change things a little (in order to keep 11 on the pitch) but we're not that bad - we've hit them on a good day and a lucky one too.
Move on - win the second half and re-mobilise for the next hugely challenging game.
It's only a chuffing game.

Several are really struggling here because they haven't got the first touch to cope with Uniteds speed of pressing. Burn, Maupay and Propper in particular. Mooy and Gross have two of the best first touches in the club and would help us here, i think we need one on for Maupay or Connolly soon - and we should have started like that
No I think he’s doing well too. He’s having to, he’s on his own in midfield.

Our full back situation is pretty dire to be honest. We shouldnt be relying on a CB on the left and Montoya isn't really at the level we need if we want to progress. Would expect at least one of those issues to be rectified in the Jan window.
You watching the same game ?

We may be matching utd, but god we're not playing well. Get on our game and we could have got something from this. Probably the least threatening we've played this year.......strange how our expectations have changed this season

4 yellow cards and barely a bad tackle has been made. I know it’s probably a broken record but I do feel we seem to get exceptionally unlucky away to the bigger teams, 2 very lucky goals and not much else has happened. We’ve not been great collectively but got to feel unfortunate to be 2-0 down.

Burn for Solly would be a far better idea.

We n ed to totally change things at half time not wait until 70 minutes.
We have let them in and they have 2 goals they did not work for.
United are really not that good but we have made them look better than they are.
Use the subs, change the formation,step up the pace and get in on them.
We are going to lose anyway playing like this so may as well change it now.
It's a toothless performance so far, we can play so much better.

I don't think we look completely outclassed, I just think there's the usual starry-eyed panic - the same as we always have at big grounds away from home.
A good half time talk, a couple of subs, and some belief would be nice.
