McManaman with some expert punditry doubting whether Martinez is good enough to be 2nd choice goalkeeper and challenging Szczesny... 😆

I'm angry but it feels like the 637th time we've seen this game. Doesn't affect you as much as it used to.

The apologists will tell you that it's not Wilshere's fault as Di Maria missed a similar opportunity,
and they'd be missing the point that neither are quality goal scorers rather than being scorers of quality goals.
Lampard is a more reliable goal scorer than our midfield combined.

This is United's worst side in decades, losing to this shower of shit is worse than the 8-2

Our defending after going down a goal was just bizarre. We don't have to send every player that far forward, do we?

Wenger needs to fuck off but our finishing was shocking. Every shot was down De Gea's throat and that isn't the manager's fault. May be the players just need to play for someone else.

I'm fuming, my blood may actually be boiling.

This is why I never posted in that 'let's all laugh
at man Utd' thread.

We will still get top four though.

Basically 2014/2015 is the new 2008/2009.

Oh piss off Michael Owen, trying to hide his glee and still shooting us.

Surely Szczesny has to be blamed for this - a goalkeeper needs to dominate his area and he clearly didn't and stupidly got himself injured in the process. If we hadn't conceded then, we probably would have conceded later, but in this instance, Szczesny is clearly to blame in my eyes.

It is if they aren't practicing shooting - going down the middle is paying the percentages and a 'safe' option.

Feels like we're knocked out of a cup. Completely gutted. In terms of the league there wasn't that much riding on it but it's another clear indicator of how easily we get rattled in a big game. We had so much more quality than this Man Utd team, and that's not wishful thinking, you could see it. This wasn't one of those Chelsea/Bayern Munich type games where they were happy to let us have the ball. This was the easiest Man Utd side to beat for some time, they were on the ropes, and after Luke Shaw goes off their defence had no real defenders.

A big moment goes against us (Wilshere's miss) and then the wind's knocked out of our sails and there's nobody there to dig deep and keep us on the front foot. We have to be more resilient than that, and it obviously does fall on the manager. Time for many beers.

Watching the 2nd goal is making my eyes bleed. What was Mertesacker doing drifting towards the right wing.

More like the Wilshere injury was the start of our downfall.

We'd help this sack of shit club no matter how dire they are. Just can't believe it.

I only saw this game in stop start horrible streams, but from what I saw there's no way we should have lost the game. We really do suck on so many levels.

For the first time I feel like everything must go: get rid of everything.
I want to forget each and every one of those who make me feel like this - like united would beat us even if they try to lose, even if they are the worst united side in twenty years. End the wenger era, fuck off Wilshere, Ramsey, OZil, Oxlade C, sell even Alexis, everybody just fuck off. I want to wash off the memory of this pathetic era. Sell the fucking stadium to Tottenham, for all I care. New beginning. Buy 11 dudes with self respect and take it from there. 4th? Who gives a fuck about 4th? What does it give us anyway?

I want a football team, not a BS collection of losers managed by losers.

We get rattled in every fucking game.

As much as people wanna make out that they've seen it before, that was one bizarre game. United did nothing and won the game.

Also, as i was watching De Gea pull off incredible save after incredible save all i could think was that Szczesny was going to concede from the first shot on target. Cos that's what he usually does. If we switched the 2 keepers we'd be fighting for the title and United would be fighting to stay up.

I agree Patters 

Only two points off fourth and we can't have been any worse than we have been this season. Probs get third or fourth but that's nothing to get your juices going.

Glad Giroud is back. We should just play to his strengths and swing crosses in
