We are a better team at home. Old Trafford is never easy. Even now. Just hope this isn’t the start of a Brendan run of collapses. 

Maddison hangs on to the ball too long and then looses it.

The most undeserved 3-0 since we beat Forest 3-0 when Bruno Berner scored 

Not having that, yea we should of gone into the break in the lead, but Jesus second half has been pathetic from us, 7.3 would of been a deserved result, we certainly didn’t deserve a win

Who his picking instead?

The Mendy/KDH for Soumare/Tielemans sub absolutely destroyed us.

Nobody fears Vardy anymore.

I fear him being given an extension on 100k+/week? 
 

But yeah sadly his time is up at the top level. 
 

Our greatest ever.

Shame we couldn’t take advantage when we had our chances at the start of the game, would been 2 or 3 up in a different game . We do like to lose our head sometimes don’t we once a few down just seem to go to pot defensively

But how does that lead to us playing our pathetic nonsensical ways?

 

As others have said it should create abit of siege mentality.

 

At bare minimums get stuck in, look bothered. 

I'm glad you get my point at least. The terrible decisions and our terrible play are not related, we are losing 3-0 because we have not been good enough. If Iheanacho was fouled in the build-up to the 3rd that doesn't take anything away from the fact we made multiple mistakes leading up to that moment and multiple mistakes after that moment that ended up with us being 3-0 down. From a letter-of-the-law perspective sure there's a debate about whether it should stand, but from the perspective of being good enough, we were not, and we only have ourselves to blame. Unfortunately, it's easier to just blame the officials for us not taking our chances and giving away goals like it's Christmas.

And now look at the camera angle, it's completely distorting our view. Sabitzer shouldn't be on the pitch I completely agree. We lost 3-0 because we were not good enough, end of story. 
I respect your opinion and I somewhat agree with it, but I'm not going to let the poor decisions be the excuse for how shit we have been in the second half. We are being opened up way too easily and that is the fault of Leicester City and Leicester City alone. 

We lost 3-0 because we were not given a fair game.

He needs to go at the end of the season really. We could do with his annual salary off the wage bill. 
 

 

Unfortunately this, we can’t pay huge wages for someone that isn’t up to it. GOAT no doubt but we can’t afford to mess around

The officiating was a joke

Listen this game is all about var lets look at the first half and take the massive positives man u playing with 12 13 including var

Very silly way of looking at things. The first goal was non league defending, we missed chances when we were on top, and despite doubts over the second goal, we came out miles off the pace in the second half and they were bound to score.

Yes he was poor too

[cruzFOX]

It's never fun chasing a game guys don't be too hard on the team. we learn a big lesson today. all said and done had we taken our chances this would have been a different game and outcome but it wasn't. we have to control our own destiny and make our own luck. 1st half though was wow just gotta build on that against the arses. COYF!

It was 11 vs 11. We lost 3-0 because united took their chances and we did not. It was 11 v 11 before Sabitzers challenge, and 11 v 11 after, the Rashford offside is nowhere near as obvious as you want to believe it is, the angle of the image you've shown just isn't a credible angle to make decisions from, we don't get to see the angles VAR do, I'm hoping later today it will show the side on view so we can properly scrutinize, and the Iheanacho foul is not responsible for the huge mistakes we made before and after it. 

I've agreed there is corruption here, but it's not the fault of corruption that our players downed tools and played like they couldn't be arsed. 

Edit: We will have to agree to disagree, we both see the same corruption, but we come to different conclusions on why we lost.

Just bin var off now anyway at least if there is a mistake wity out it it is what it is but to have so many views if it and still get so many decisions so badly wrong in every game is just piss poor at this point
