    Aye Pepe has had a shocker, not beat a man once and every cross and shot has went nowhere being shown up by Saka who has beat men, held the ball under pressure and looked much more likely to do something.

    Shouldn’t be hard for KT to shine in that team, him and Bellerin make a massive difference to that defence..

    Two mediocre teams, closer in class to us than Liverpool or City.

    Both teams look brutal tbh, apart from the goal there's been very little quality on show so far, 70 mil for Pepe ffs lol....

    Both managers will be lucky to still be in a job by Christmas.

    The linesman who put his flag up there should be fined for that, * was about a meter onside.

    VAR gets criticised but it's hard to argue against it when you see decisions like that. Genuinely shocking decision from the linesman, don't see how he can possibly get that wrong...

    Sokratis makes Efe look like Beckenbauer with the ball at his feet.

    That free kick at the end by Ceballos just summed up the game. The lack of quality was astonishing.

    Embarassing from the linesman that.

    Thankfully the right decision was made in the end.

    Still think it’ll be Arsenal and another that round out the top 4.

    Solskjaer loves talking about how he got rid of the bad eggs in that dressing room in Lukaku and Sanchez but honestly think the main problem is players like Rashford and Lingard. Players who are not anywhere near good enough on massive money who clearly couldn’t give a *.

    Even Neville and the other pundits refusal to slate Rashford is embarrassing.

    Reckon we'd get a result against both sides. They're both a long way off when this fixture was played 15 years ago. Imagine going from the likes of Rooney, Ronaldo, Keane, Henry and Vieira to this. Incredible decline for both teams.

    You try and put all the best elements together for the biggest cost and it doesn’t really work. It’s becoming more apparent in the EPL especially with so many infinite egos in the one dressing room or training pitch. About 10 guys in their 20s who would be shocked to see what real peoples jobs pay while they earn 80-120,000 per week. Put in the mix for the rest of the squad on about 20-30,000 a week and now you get *, Chinese whispers and dented pride. It takes a very special manager to keep a reign on everything whilst delivering success. Just like old hairdryer Fergie and like Klopp and Guardiola and the first one * about they are gone. Since Fergie the United job has overwhelmed the boss. It has caused frictions in the dressing and board rooms and can’t help but feel Ole is last roll of the dice because they are out of ideas. They * it big with missing Guardiola.

    I have this game a swerve when considering a bet over next few days.. but then I’ve avoided every Man U game so far this season they (and arsenal ) are that iffy!

    that said.... I half thought of going for a single on a draw tonight... :42:

    Fire football.... but the best league I n the world so I’m told!
