Someone ought to run a poll (not on BuzzJack though) to see what people say is the worst time to be a Man Utd supporter in their recent history, and this moment probably would epitomise most fan's frustrations.

Yep just as I thought, to be further compounded with defeat on Sunday against Liverpool.

 

We didn't deserve to go through to the knockout stage anyway, it's probably the worst Champions League group stage I can remember from us. At least we've avoided the Europa League this time.

 

You say that, but these games are funny. I remember under Ferguson you'd be light years ahead of us in terms of ability, but we'd throw in some Derby style performances. The pace of your front line worries me a little bit and I suspect you'll play very compact. We should win on paper, but we're develpong our own injury meltdown and we'll miss MacAllister. The good thing is we are at home.

 

 

 

 

Chris Sutton's comments about the Liverpool Vs Man Utd match in his Premier League predictions on the BBC football website are the exact type of comments that would give me maximum motivation to prove him wrong if I was a professional player. If I was the manager I would frame his article and stick it on the wall in the dressing room for everyone to see. The man's got a hate boner for Man United anyway but even by his standards it's quite outrageous.

 

There's not many bigger satisfactions in football than to shut people up like him who chat shit the way that they do, he'd probably have a coronary if the match goes opposite to how he thinks it will go.

I’m fairly confident United will win now on Sunday because of the previous games it’s always the way these things work out!

To be honest I could see us getting SOMETHING I.e. a draw as Ten Hag has inherited the Ole trait of getting a result every time he desperately needs one and just enough to keep his head above water. Even a narrow defeat would be acceptable but if its even half as bad as last time we went to Anfield I think he'll properly be on borrowed time.

Yeh that’s what I mean plus we are due a defeat the way we’ve been playing the last few games, been riding our luck!

We did get beat on Thursday! I don't think any team is playing particularly well at the moment, it's all about getting through the games. I think a lot of the predictions going around are well over the top. Ten Haag will set up in a low block and play on the counter. United have a lot of pace and will get opportunities. But yeah it just feels like the beginning of the end for Ten Haag. I think Ratcliffe will come in and get his own man.

What a turnaround! Absolutely buzzing. I thought we had missed the chance to get something from the game when we couldn't score before half time when we had a bit of momentum. Beating the Villa is great.

Maybe saved Erik’s job!

Probably has for a few weeks.

I think he is the right man for a difficult job but needed that win yesterday!

I felt it was less about us playing well and more Villa being complete and utter bottlejobs but we take the W and move! Great for Rasmus to get the proverbial monkey off his back.

Always thought he looks a decent player, his movement is superb and he’s only 22!

I thought Utd played well yesterday. Villa played in to their hands though - if Villa had set up in a low block at 2-0, there was no way Utd were scoring. Can't help but feel this result, just puts off the inevitable though with Ten Haag. I can see Ratcliffe wanting to install his own man and if Utd don't get Champions League football this season, I think it is going to be bad. I did laugh at the fact the camera kept banning to Brailsford in the crowd. As usual, I'll be grabbing my popcorn when this goes terribly wrong - Clive Woodward MK II.

I was pleased to see Rasmus getting his 1st Premier League goal yesterday and I hope this can be the first of many to come for him. It was good fighting sprit that we showed to come back from 2-0 down but now it's about taking that sprit into the upcoming matches starting with Nottingham Forest on Saturday.

Donny van de Beek has signed for Eintracht Frankfurt on loan from Manchester United.

 

The 26-year-old Dutch midfielder will join the Bundesliga side for the remainder of the 2023/24 season.

With Jim being at United today, I expect the 'Erik's been told if we lose to Wigan he's out' rumour mill to get into full swing.

Manchester United have exercised the break clause in Sergio Reguilon’s loan – and the player will return to Tottenham.

 

Reguilon joined United on Deadline Day in the summer – primarily to cover for injuries to Luke Shaw and Tyrell Malacia.

Any realistic chance we sign anyone in Jan?

No one good that's for sure.
