fonte got plenty of crticism last season for that game, as did forster for being glued to his line as did adkins the first season up for throwing the game awya by taking off our best players

indeed. we finished 7th and compare that to sunderland last season...

because, Clyne, Fonte, Cork, Morgan, Wanyama, Davis, JWP and everyone else who was here the year before would have the fitness and pressing instincts very much trained in them it was even mentioned that the players did less physical work and more ball work when Ron came in. in 2015 (well, since end of jan), we have been pretty crap....2 wins from the last 12 in the league. dumped out of the Europa League (may be a blessing, sadly) by a very crap side....after the run in jan where we beat newcastle, ipswich and united away in a week, the form dropped off quite a bit and been very patchy since I think we will be ok. but it will be OK at best. Reckon we will be down here, maybe even drop in the bottom 3 for a few weeks before a little run will take us out with a 12-15th place finish

Because pelle stopped going up against blind, mane was moved wide and the defence dropped off pretty deep.

Nice 2nd edit

Well done

like the membership rip off.....Kerching!!!!

a lot more to it than that. Certainly more than 'going into our shells' Gary Neville pointed the obvious out and had no explanation why we changed players around so much after we were clearly way on top

because he is not a new, most expensive defender in our history, type of signing I thought VvD was alright today.......but obvious why he will have far more focus on him

I think this time last year we had Koemans players with Pocchettinos pressing/fitness influence very much present our form in 2015 has been pretty crap really......MPs stuff is not really evident anymore....add in the sale of more good players with inadequate players brought in..... it showed today

15th most expensive squad in Europe and still cant defend very average summer window

if juanmi cant get a game in this, may as well give up

we all know yoshida commits a howler nearly every game we paid for it today cedric must be a poor buy if he cant start against a good side martina is a joke Pelle, JWP and Mane were very good for us have no idea why Ron changed it and moved mane wide after we had 30 mins or so very good play we are in a bit of poo this season staying up is the mission i feel

what te feck was long doing there took a free shot away from davis

id take that lol

2-3, pelle 5 mins left plus added time

Martina is really a joke signing I will be stunned if we dont have anyone at his level from the younger lads

get pelle off he has reverted back to doing nothing

way too easy neville summing it up well has no idea why we have changed it around so much

Pelle for Jrod/long please

martina is garbage

pelle has stopped moving as much come on fella

what a save from De Gea

he makes a howler nearly every game just not every game do we pay the price
