I can't say I like the idea of just Delph and Westwood on a big pitch like that. Still, let's see how it goes.   

Pitch is the same size everywhere in the PL sir!!

Look, if it stays something close to this, I don't think it fundamentally changes anything beyond probably meaning we can't stay up on goal difference. We just need to avoid a thrashing.

There were a few times that we poured too many players, including both full backs forward. Let's shut up shop a bit.

We won't be the first or last team that Man U blow away like this. It helps to prove that we have a shit defence. But it doesn't prove that we are fundamentally shit.

I still maintain that we've played some good stuff going forwards.

Games like this are always on the cards when you play like we do. It might be hide behind the sofa stuff on nights like tonight but at least we're finally serving up some entertaining games on a regular basis.

As above. Rooney having all the time in the world. Only way to have a chance of beating manure is to stop them passing the ball around as they please. Unfortunately we seem content to sit back admire.

On another not Benteke need to stop fannying around with all this showboating

I always used to think it was the hope that killed you, but no actually it's being utterly shit that kills you.

What's that, the third player to score a hattrick against us this season? Has that happened before?

I don't think shutting up shop would make any difference. They are so much better than us that if we camped eleven players in the box they'd pick through us with ease.
