If Garnacho gets injured then Manu are completely fucked.
He is going to be a superstar. 
Reckon he will be playing with Bellingham soon in Madrid.

Ramsey and Watkins were woeful.
Incorrect

Yes it was their finishing that was woeful.
Indeed, that berk up front for them had one chance all game and scored it. Ollie had four chances and hit the keeper with all four. When that ratio changes, we’ll win most games

Did Ollie miss four chances? He may have missed a couple but I don't remember four.
Definitely four

Emery's got it wrong taking McGinn off and Bailey. Its game over when McGinn goes off hope of an equaliser is gone.
Luiz manages to stay on the pitch till the end despite not doing much apart from a tap in.
Ramsey got loads of ball but his decisions and passing were atrocious. Over reliance on one foot.
In the first half There was so much space in front of the 2 manu centre halfs we could just walk through. However the killer pass was always delayed or missing (Ramsey + Luiz) The kid playing defensive mid for manu, Mainoo has great feet and an unbelieveable touch but doesn't know how to play that role very well hopefully other teams can exploit him in the remainder of the season.

It really saddens me to see so many people who forget where we were 18 months ago… this manager mad team have come so far in that time it’s unbelievable…..really….get some reality in there.
We have no divine right…..

Loser mentality

Yes you are…..doesn’t post for weeks then pops up to have a good whine when we lose narrowly and play better than we have for weeks.

We’ve beat Man Utd at home twice in 40 years…

What the fuck that’s got to do with anything? I’m more worried about what we do not the opposition. Yes it’s annoying losing to those fuckers but I’m genuinely encouraged what I saw today, a bit more clinical and that’s a win by two clear goals for me. Ramsey was properly good as well, which starts to create a whole different dimension to our play. I swear getting wound up by the fact it’s that lot is blinding people to a much better performance.

If my aunty had bollocks she’d be my uncle.

On the plus side I like the YouTube videos.

Gutted we lost, but 2 years ago we'd have played that game with 10 men behind the ball. We dominated them almost completely but weren't clinical enough where it mattered. Other than the finishing I can't fault anyone.

Bailey did have them on the back foot for 30 mins or so & the substitutions took some of the threat out of our game. But how many 90 minutes has Bailey ever played?

I thought we played very well and shown seeds of recovery after a very hard couple of months. We just couldn’t put it away which was strange considering how many goals we have scored this season.

With players coming back from injury I’m actually feeling more confident about how we end this season after that performance. I know we lost, but that’s the rules of law against these wankers.

Onwards and upwards.
Ian thanks for saving me the trouble of saying all this. I am convinced after today that we will finish above these ******.

We played well, a million times better than the last 2 home games. We  are week closer to getting Torres, Konsa and Digne back. Ramsey looked like he is almost back up to his best.

14 games to go - we need 25ish points for CL.

Nowhere near over.

It’s not over at all - but good performances with zero points will end our hopes fast. The reality is we’ve won three games since Christmas, one cup game against a Championship team and two games against teams in the bottom 3. That just isn’t anywhere near good enough - we have to go on a run of winning games now or it’ll be gone.
