What I love about these games is they remind me of why I hate Man Utd more than any other club. Would also take a draw, but if we can get a win and ruin any momentum for them after a good result against Chelsea it would be perfect in many ways.

Seconded. Can't stand them.

Can’t help think Tavares gung ho nature might have cost us 2 goals at anfield and old Trafford.

It’s got to be defence first at these places

Can't see that he looks subdued to me, not making the runs or trying to get forward.

With Aubameyang a passenger we need someone to make them work for the ball not give them time and space to set up their own moves.

Ooh. Horrible there from Tavares. Perhaps it’s time for Tierney to resurface?

I think it might be worth getting Tierney on.

Yep I’d bring on Tierney around about now. He hasn’t been exactly rampaging forward giving us a lot in attack either.

They know they can get behind Tavares, if it’s coming it’s coming from that side. Doesn’t make him a bad player but that’s the issue

Ah. VAR in operation for their penalty but not ours.

Correct decision though.

NO PEN.

United players left leg went across Ødegaard.

Bit naive from Ødegaard there. Bollocks. Let's get after them.

Why was VAR used here and not when Tomiyasu was clearly hauled down by McQuire?

I think that’s all you wrote folks.

You just can’t do dumb *%^@ like that in these games. Feel a bit sorry for Ødegaard who has done well

Because Fred was about to play the ball. It means they can’t ignore it. If Gabriel trips Ronaldo in the other corner of the box you bet they’re ignoring it if the ref misses it. I’ve seen it quite a lot now. Unless the ball is landing on your head they won’t interfere with those in the box haul down jobs.

I meant that the penalty for them was the correct decision.

But we should also have had the benefit of VAR. That was not a good decision.

Now would be a good time for Aubameyang to start earning his salary again.

Martinelli is playing really well today. It's not impossible to get another goal here

Aubameyang couldn’t hit a cows arse with a banjo. As it happens he was offside but dear oh dear.

So long as Aubameyang doesn’t keep getting in the way of our shots like some sort of offside heat seeking missile we might have a chance

Aubameyang has been poor for so many games now. Time to drop him to the bench.

It’s crazy. He’s missing outright sitters

I don’t think you can drop him but bloody hell this period is crazy for him

But why can’t you drop him? How badly does he have to play before that happens?

Martinelli has looked mega sharp and motivated. I rather have him getting a run right now.

Elneny simply lacks the skills to play in our midfield

Bruno Fernandes is such a Man Utd player, mostly for the fact that he's completely unlikeable in every aspect

Martinelli is a winger not a striker. He’s been great on the right but not up front

I’m at the point where maybe we should just play Lacazette though.

We really should not have lost this game. Very poor really.

But Aubameyang isn’t really a striker either as he is proving repeatedly. Martinelli is dangerous offensively and does make things happen.

It's not a disatrous performance or result by any means, but I agree that it feels like we should've been able to grind out a draw here.
