I thought we were bad away at United but today's performance is a new low. Genuinely one of the worst performances I've ever seen from us. Could and should have been 10, and aside from our goal which came out of nowhere we barely got out of our own half. If I was Vardy I'd be tearing into certain individuals after that showing.

Never ever want to see this clown where the club's shirt again. Absolutely atrocious. How can anyone in their right mind watch this guy week in week out and think he warrants being a professional footballer. The bloke is a complete fraud.

I'm not defending JJ but to be fair he probably thinks he's holding the line and those behind are offside. Little does he realise Faes is secret Brentford fan.

I'm livid with that. Faes nowhere to be seen. Needs pulling immediately.

Another down the right

I absolutely hate Danny Ward, but I'd genuinely be tempted at HT to sub off Faes, stick Ward in goal and play Hermansen as a CB. Could not be any worse.

What the heck was that?!?

It really wouldn't 😂

39 seconds after the restart. Coady seems a decent guy, but surely as a highly experienced centre half he should be reminding that backline to keep their concentration immediately after they've conceded.

Faes is soooo sh!t. It's like he's in a parallel universe marking some player no one else can see.

Horrendous again

Yet again down that right side. That combo of Justin and Faes is a disaster. Ruud needs to make that a priority.

Where did that come from?

Feel quite mixed about this one. Seemingly had a decent record at PSV and had he been appointed in the summer I'd have been OK about it. That said I wasn't overly impressed with United in both the games against us. First game could have gone either way, and the second not really sure how much the result was down to RVN as Cooper and the team had a shocker. What I am more optimistic about is that I think this is a make or break appointment from his perspective and the fact he backs himself is a big positive. If this goes wrong I imagine that'll be the end of his managerial career, certainly in the big leagues. Another positive is that I think he will have the connections both with clubs and players alike to bring in some solid players in the transfer window if needed so this will at least give us a chance if we do drop into the bottom 3 during December.

Can anyone tell me what Faes actually has to do to get dropped? Must have been taking lessons from Rudkin.

Just watched the highlights as decided against going today after seeing the team sheet. Yet again both goals conceded are shockers and goals you'd be frustrated with at school boy level. As bad as that first goal is, I'm more annoyed with the defending for the second. Watching it back Faes and VK should never play again. No idea what Faes is thinking, goes towards the ball with two players covering and leaves a huge space for Fernandez to run into. Then VK has Fernandez in his vision and simply stops tracking him. I get that Cooper is starting to make Peter Taylor look like an absolute coaching genius, but to be fair to the bloke you could have Pep or Ancelotti in the dugout and with these brain dead players we'd still leak goals left, right, and centre, as they just make stupid decisions that no manager can plan for. The only thing you can reasonably expect of the manager is that he refuses to play these clowns again.

Have tried to remain open minded but sadly I think it's time for a change.

Is Vestergaard injured? Surely not been dropped if Faes has survived that performance at Old Trafford.

With the injury situation and Buonanotte missing, this is the first time in about 20 years where I genuinely feel defeated before I've even got to the ground. It'll take a miracle today to get even a point from the game given the circumstances. I hate being negative, but today just feels like it's going to be grim. It'll be freezing cold, we'll get drenched, see us either get pummelled or play out the most boring defeat ever, before getting rained on again, then likely end up stuck in traffic. What a way to spend your weekend 🙂

Definitely Danny Ward in goal 😉

Disappointing performance. You never expect much at Old Trafford but we barely laid a glove on them. Not quite at the Cooper out stage but that team selection was poor today and lacked ambition. That said with Ricardo and Vardy out we don't really have the quality to cover them currently as Justin is woeful and Edouard isn't fit to lace Vardy's boots. Whether Daka would have made a difference is hard to say. One thing I am certain of is that Faes needs benching ASAP. He's too erratic and must be a nightmare to play with. I'd like to see Okoli partnered with Vestergaard as we need to tighten up the defence. Currently achieving a clean sheet looks a long way off.

Wow... Where was the midfield?!?

Rudders if you're reading this... Please please please can we have two new half decent full backs and a centre forward in the Jan transfer window 🙏

N'didi is so frustrating. Takes up some great positions at times but just doesn't have the ability to make the most of the chances that come his way.

That's a harsh yellow given some of the fouls they've committed. If that's a yellow Casemiro on Fatawu should have been a yellow too.
