Disappointing to lose last night but got to dust ourselves down and get a little run going in the league.

A great win against City but it will be long forgotten if we don’t win this one! Bournemouth are flying high in 6th so this won’t be an easy one!

Better hope Amad has a good game!

He's had a good game for the past month or so.
 
Will be a very tough game their away record isn’t great but then our home record isn’t much to write home about.
 
I think the rotation so much is also not good. We should play Maguire, Martines and De Ligt in defence in the PL. Yes I know Martinez had a bad game but the keeper should have been much stronger for that goal. Maybe in the PL that is checked by VAR and not given?
 
I hope we’ve been working on defending corners, the opposition tactics must be get as many corners as you can because they’ve got a good chance of scoring.
 
No Rashford in the squad

Onana

Maz Maguire Martinez

Dalot Mainoo Ugarte Malacia

Amad Zirkzee Bruno
 
Obviously isn’t getting the right reaction from him.

Isn’t like he’s got stars ahead of him he basically just needs to look like he will offer more than Antony.

3 games suggests he’s just going through the motions in training.
 
I wonder if Rashord will leave on loan in January with an obligation to buy in the summer.

Could see him going on loan but can’t see it being a permanent thing. Bit like Sancho last season just feels like he needs to be away from the club ASAP.
 
This is awful another goal conceded from a set piece, Zirkzee with a pathetic attempt at marking his man.

I dont have a firestick so not watching but these set pieces are really an issue currently then.

Corner?
 
I think we need to just call a spade a spade, we are just not very good. We still have way too many passengers in the squad. Bournemouth just look a better team and that’s sad to say.
 
This new manager is going to need a lot of time and patience. I hope you give it to him but if results carry on then he’s not going to get that long. I’m not suggesting he’s nearing the end of the line but if things don’t improve he might not see out the season.
 
The naivety of our players is absolutely shocking.

I feel for Amorim and ETH and before him because these players are something else. It seems to be an epidemic of us bringing in players who are brainless! That needs to change and fast.

This season is just starting to feel like a proper write off already.
 
It's the same as under ETH. Individual mistakes and missed chances. Hopefully now our fans can blame the players.
 
I think if we put in a couple of our youth players from the U21’s/U18’s they wouldn’t be as bad as this. It’s just shambolic stuff. New manager, same old problems.

Does Amorim have to ditch his formation now and just say these players just aren’t good enough to adapt to a new formation/style? Then get the next two transfer windows to mould the squad in his ideal.
 
Spent the game making sausage rolls sounds like I made the right choice.

This club is so broken right now to the point where I don’t think it can be fixed.

Will take an absolute miracle worker with a hell of a lot of luck to stop this sinking ship.
 
The shoreline wasn’t a true reflection of the match. I don’t know the starts, however it felt like Bournemouth created little whilst United had plenty.
 
I saw we had more of the ball twice as many shots but the same number on target.

None of this matters when they score 3 and we score 0.

is that the 4th time this season we’ve let in 3 at home?

Where do you even start trying to fix it?

True. So many situations today where should have hit the target but didn't. No intensity, not enough players that want to battle. We have the right manager but the wrong players
 
Shooting was dreadful either straight at the keeper Bruno in particular or miles over the bar, we can’t defend set pieces or score from them, corners by Bruno rarely get above head height.
Malacia was terrible really terrible, Martinez has turned to shit, Kobbie might have good feet but he’s painfully slow and trots back after losing the ball, Zirkzee isn’t a centre forward he can barely jump for the ball, Dalot is all huff with little end product, Garnacho making the wrong decisions all the time. We just have a bunch of misfits with no cohesion there’s a mountain of work to do.
 
I think he’s rotating it too much now, Sala is 32 and plays every game why can’t our players do it?

Xg wise 2.3 played 1.2.

Nothing any manager can do about poor finishing by players that should be able to.
