Sky Sports' Adam Bate at Old Trafford: "Chants of 'Cooper, sort it out' from the away end."

VK OG.

So not Buo then, the guy who is initially on Fernandes and then let's him go?

It's probably because the comments are exclusively blaming a person who wasn't even at fault for the goal. If Buo follows Fernandes, his man, instead of letting him go, then it's not an uncontested shot on goal. But he doesn't. Yet people are berating Soumare and not Facundo. Soumare has done alright so far but people want to shit on him at any opportunity, even when he's not involved because they don't like him.

You're blaming the wrong guy.

Fxxk me, sleeping. Absolutely nobody near him.

Decent break.

Bouba marshalls Rashford out. On for player of the season!

If Fatawu doesn't go over so theatrically there, he gets a free kick. Just looked like a total dive.

Bouba won the ball twice now! Football is complete.

Just on the lineup, are we all assuming that Ayew is in for Vardy, Fats goes left and Buo right. OR Is Buo going false 9, Ayew in for Mav?

Did somebody chain you to a radiator mate?

I'm not gonna trawl through the last couple of matchday threads looking for names, but you're welcome to.

That's the spirit.

People keep saying that Vardy is offering nothing and it's like playing with 10 so where's the issue? Not a fan of Cooper, and some might say it's a cowardly lineup. You could also say it's a brave one. Soumare starting. JJ back in the firing line. Vesty in again. No Vardy. I'm not gonna read too much into the lineup, the way we go about the game will be what matters. There's reasons for and against any players starting. If we play to win, I'll be happy. If we play damage limitation, then he can get fxxked.

I wouldn't feel sad for him. He's been given a great opportunity to further his career and left on good terms. So if he can't get himself in the team, and he wants to go elsewhere, maybe back to us, then he's got a very good chance of doing so, on loan at least. Chelsea will want to shift players on that aren't part of the managers plans, so there will be plenty of opportunity for him to get back on track.

The snippet from DavieG.

Good to see Cover getting a solid rating despite being on the wrong end of a result.

A reference that has Garnacho worth €115mill! So probably some wiggle room with reality.

Well that little snippet states €50mill which is close to £40mill. For that kind of money, I imagine we show interest. Though I don't expect Brighton sell for that kind of money. However they did sell MacAllister for £35mill rising to £55mill to Liverpool, so it's not all £100mill Caicedos. But Brighton will be shopping around for players of the £40-50mill bracket for their own team if they finish this season well and with the possibility of Europe, so why shop for it when they already have one contracted to them?

That price is entirely made-up.

Buonanotte is 19, so if Alves isn't at least as good then I think he needs to be turfed out, asap.

I agree. Semedo doesn't have possession or control of the ball, he just throws himself in the players path. Which to me is impeding the attacker. I can see how that can be interpreted both ways, which is why the on-field decision should have stood.

What like last seasons title winning squad that was signed in it's entirety by Pep? With KDB the only arguable outlier as he was signed before Peps arrival with it being common knowledge that Guardiola sanctioned the buy.

So he's a fraud yet has completely dominated with the same cheque book that Hughes, Mancini, Pellegrini couldn't dominate with.
