The better team by a mile.

Our record $50M forward came on to replace Bailey, how is that settling for a point??

1 point off ‘title chasing’ Spurs in 4th & 5 points above the mighty Manchester United. We are struggling for consistency but Jesus fucking wept let’s not throw in the towel just yet.

UTFV!


Absolutely agree 100%

Emery blew it, he should have worked out that Kamara marking Blakey was not working and then his substitutions took away momentum and gave it to them.
Watkins, you should not sleep well tonight.

Bastards. We’ve played worse and lost.

Do you mean won?

Think the main problem is not having our 3 first choice centre backs available. Torres and Konsa instead of Carlos and Lenglet and we win that game. In spite of all our missed chances.
Think we’ll finish above them. We have a 5 point lead and we’re better than them.

Diaby came on for Kamara, then for 10 minutes Bailey, Cash and Diaby were destroying there left hand side. Then we took Bailey off for whatever reason.

Seem to be the thing to do on here from what I read. Noticing the positives from the game certainly makes me feel a little better after the disappointment of the game. The negativity on here must make for some miserable Monday mornings 😊

Because our record signing is playing like a chump, and Bailey has been our best player for months, and had already set up our goal.

Some of the comments on here are well over the top, we played well, they were very lucky, thats football. Injuries have come to haunt us and nothing Emery does can cover for that.

It was a stupid decision by Emery to take off Bailey. Another thing that pissed me off was we kept on pumping corners into the box when it was clearly not working. That one was on MacPhee.

Diaby came on for Kamara when he went off injured. Bailey and Diaby in combination were causing so many problems down their left hand side.

Emery bought the waste of space Tielemans on for Bailey

Man utd won't catch us with performances like that.

If you look at their remaining fixtures, I wouldn't be so sure.  The only away match you'd reasonably expect them to lose is at the Etihad and whilst Liverpool and Arsenal both have to go to Old Trafford, they also have Everton, Sheffield Utd and Burnley.

A real sickener of a result. After we equalised I thought there was only one side that would win it. Had enough chances to win 2 games.

Obviously it’s a positive that we played much better than we have lately, but playing well and losing is not a habit I want us to get into.

Very confused by the Bailey sub, I thought he was having plenty of joy down that side.

We’ve had an absolutely shocking run of late, BUT, we’re still only one point off fourth, so it’s all to play for, and the performance today at least showed improvement compared to the last few weeks.

We lost, which makes us losers. I’ll bet you any amount of money we don’t finish in the top 6. Typical losers
