Possibly the worst first half of football we have played in the Emery era.

I can't see it, but I'm not surprised we're struggling if they're playing a back five with wing-backs. Emery regularly shits the bed against that formation.

Watkins is the worst, has he mentally left?

Shitting the bed when it really matters

This is an absolute shocker of a performance. It does show that we badly lack pace to stretch play.

Rogers for Malen. Tielemans for McGinn.

It can’t be any worse than this

No chance. McGinn will get into it

Onana will go at half time

McCoist and Fletcher getting all excited about ManU now. This is awful.

Positively salivating every time ManUre get the ball. Wankers.

Why have we not turned up yet this is our cup final!

Same reason we didn't turn up at our actual cup semi final? The other team playing 3-4-3 combined with us being bed-shitters?
