That look for Luiz says it all.
I thought that. It's a sign that we've totally given up.

Where’s the fucking urgency?!!

There is none. The “spine” is spineless. No leadership anywhere.

Got to make a couple of changes. Get Davis up to occupy them, Trez off and anybody with legs to replace McGinn.

This is insipid.

Why didn't VAR review the challenge on Samatta in their box? More of a penalty than the one they got - although doesn't say much

Life's too short for this crap.

I'm off to do something less depressing instead...

What ON EARTH is Dean Smith waiting for here?  0-3?  Is this damage limitation?

The problem this season has been the prolonged meek acceptance of low standards. Low standards of fitness, low standards of coaching, low standards of game management, players repeatedly not delivering, low standards of recruitment.

That second goal was a perfect example. Mings lingering, taking care to cover his bollocks, Greenwood given all the time he wants to shoot, our 74 year old goalkeeper not getting anywhere near it.

Yeah we played well for spells, and yeah, the penalty was never a penalty, but sorry, even taking that into account, it's not good enough and it hardly has been at all this season.

No, we never get anything out of Man United, but the point is, it was the pathetic acceptance of low standards that left us in a desperate situation where we HAVE to get three points.

Just not good enough, and I can not believe Edens and Sawiris have pumped all the money in and then just watched it all get pissed away like that.

If they decide they've had enough, we are properly fucked.

This is very measured and true. Struggling to be measured at present but this is true nevertheless.

It has been a horror show really it has. Recruitment, coaching, fitness, everything about it has just been so poor.

Use your left foot you're playing left wing, FFS. One time Grealish has got space in the area and we have to wait fifteen minutes while Trezeguet ambles the ball onto his slightly less shit foot.

The second goal,covers up the cheating.
Why Does Smith walk off at half time without even going to the ref?
