Apologies if posted before but this is how United fans are keeping their spirits up this season.

Even if he was 65 I’d have him over Brett Hampton or Codi Yusuf.

Oh dear. Looks like it’s Com-over for Man Utd.

TBH I am genuinely indifferent towards that post. There is honestly no new low that man could sink to that would diminish him in my esteem. He could literally throw a baby off a skyscraper and my opinion of him wouldn’t change.

Good news, it looks like James Anderson could be available to open our batting.

I had a look at the history of this fixture. We've been to the London Stadium eight times and on six of those occasions, one team has scored three goals.

Actually, you're right (and so is mush), that's my mistake. Fellows came off at HT, so technically we could have made another.

Sad news really. Wheal is an extremely okay cricketer but to see a second bowler forced into retirement through injury this season isn't nice.

I said before the game that I'd rather have the option of bringing Jander on than being forced to take him off and the game kind of showed why. If you start knowing that you're going to have to make a certain sub on circa 60 minutes, then you're limited in the tactical changes you can make. You're effectively down to one tactical sub opportunity if somebody gets injured, which is exactly what happened with Larin after 40 minutes. As it happened he subbed off Bragg on 70 minutes anyway but you don't really want that being dictated to you by fitness, before the game. On that note, shout out to the mush behind me who get shouting, "get Jander on FFS!" when we'd already used all three sub windows.

Well, that was one of the all time games of football. I guess you can't really be too annoyed, considering this is the first game we've failed to score in all season and we have taken seven points from nine in the space of a week. A few thoughts from where I was sat. Papa Fellows N'Diaye. WTF was that all about, that was the offsideiest performance I've seen in decades. Bragg. Having just come back from suspension for two pretty silly bookings, he looked like he was trying to do it twice in the same week with that booking. The ref waved him away about eight times but he just kept chirping. Bree's miss. Good f**king lord. The hand ball not given. Good f**king lord. Dobbin's miss when one on one. Good f**king lord. Larin clearly struggling with something, I assume it's his back still playing up. I hope this doesn't become a recurring problem. Scienza and Azaz. A quieter day at the office for our most creative players. Bolton clearly did their homework on us. Bazunu. Well, that was a strange looking, "easy 5-0 win". He commanded his defence well, came for crosses and dealt with the only two shots on target I can remember. Wood. How many hours is that no we haven't conceded a goal in his absence? Since about minute 31 at Watford. Overall I'd say Bolton look like a decent enough and well organised team who won't be in any trouble this year. No shame in a 0-0 here but we can't afford too many of those if we're serious about the autos.

Personally I'd prefer to be in a position where we have the option of bringing him on, rather than being forced to take him off.

Do you remember that Miss Teen America meme from about 20 years ago, with some girl talking gibberish about Iraq and South Africa? Probably her.

Armando Broja on the bench for Burnley. He’s scored one goal in all competitions since his loan to us five years ago. He cost £20m.

Clearly they thought they were going to have to rough West Ham up a bit to get a result but instead of doing what every team does to Scienza, Hamer went full Alex Jankewitz. Oops.
