The Man U “superstars” need to shape themselves. Overpaid prima donnas.

Their entire defence including keeper is absolutely woeful.

Their recruitment is shambolic.

Hilarious.

People will blame the players, but Ten Hag has somehow made a terrible side worse. His system is horrific - Eriksen in a seeming defensive midfield role? The new centre back looks out of his depth, and makes Cannavaro look 6’6?!

De Gea horrendous error for the first - the second is a worthy reminder to all teams that play out from the back that, on occasion, you need to not just blindly stick to your rigid principles if there is no option on and actually go long.

It'll be interesting to see that BBC player rater if United continue in this manner :D

Of which.... I see Pope had top marks in the BHA v Geordies game @ 7.71, Trips next 7.23.
Just heard from a mate that every Utd player has 0 in the Manchester Evening News half time ratings :lol: :lol: :lol:

One year left on his deal. Wanted to stay in the PL to play in the World Cup. I’m sure behind the scenes there was a ‘gentleman’s agreement’ that we wouldn’t stand in his way if fair offers were received. I wish him all the best, top keeper for us.
We had an option for another 12 months:

“His long-term value to the club remained beyond doubt, however, and in May, 2019, Pope signed a new deal to keep him at Turf Moor until June, 2023 with the option of a further 12 months.”

https://www.burnleyfootballclub.com/player/nick-pope

Agree we shouldn’t stand in his way, but the figure seems very, very low to me.

Unless EMA received some Saudi investment around the same time ;)

It's a pity Brentford didn't play like this against Leeds.

The "score the players" hasnt opened yet on the BBC coverage site but cant be long. I'm guessing De Gea (who's errors started the rot today) will be bottom of the pile but I think there'll be a lot of sub 4 scores. I doubt the highest score (CR?) will be as high as the lowest Brentford mark.

Looking forward to the comments section on the game coverage too- if the BBC allow that for fear of bad language/bad tempers.

I just hope there's a supply of beta-blockers available to Roy or he may explode.

8.02 currently for Mee- about average for the Bees team. Eriksen and CR the only Man U players over 3 so far; Maguire winning the race to the bottom with 2.05.
Just organising a G&T before reading the comments :D

Watching the Football League goals on ITV.

The standard of goalkeeping is excruciating.
