Manchester United at Chelsea LIVE - Premier League

518 comments

Seems we have bought a third injured player at the time of signing with Mount Sesko and now Baleba often missing in action why don't we ever learn

S

stephenjholmes11d ago

Our recruitment department is consistent in terms of, the quality of recruits. Unfortunately they set themselves low target's, and still fail to achieve them.

S

stephenjholmes11d ago

I have said previously. We seem to employ players that are made of glass. Whilst conducting the medical, I can't believe that the players reflexes are tested using the little hammer, as most would be on crutches before completing the medical otherwise. I remember when we wanted Ruud. He was injured, and so we waited 12 months to sign him once recovered🤔

dancoombs1d ago

It’s definitely not the best start!

JJ Gabriel has now got his European passport and could go to Real Madrid for £8.3 million in January but personally I'd make Real wait until the summer because of the way he and his family has treated United

S

stephenjholmes12d ago

I am more concerned by the way he has been treated. Just looking at the total refusal to use any of the academy prospects would be sending huge alarm bells to his father. As a footballing prospect, you can vanish into obscurity if not handled properly. I can't think of anyone other than Kobbie who has prospered since Rashford, and we nearly lost him.

For the Roma game Martinez shouldn't start and if Amad is unfit Lacey should start not Zirkzee as Mbuemo should be number 9 and i'm not convinced using Dalot at LB it means he has to come inside to use his stronger right foot as he's useless trying to cross with his left and I think Rashford is wor his ticket eithhis so called injury jury

S

stephenjholmes13d ago

Who gives a fc11k if Amad is fit or not? He hasn't contributed a goal, or an assist since he returned. Give Lacey his place. If Lacey contributes nothing (ala Amad) then he gets subbed. Same at LB. Give Harry Amass a start and tie Dalot to Martinez. I wouldn't even give you a penny for both of those Guys

17th in the table - Do United need to take finishing in the bottom three as a serious threat?

How worried are YOU about the R word?

G

geldroper3d ago

That is the only way we get real soccer in England.Basic good wages with a insentive to make it great. They do not deserve those payouts for doing nothing

J

jjflash4223d ago

I think the only way is a basic wage for each with incentives,eg.assists,clean sheets,goals etc.I know it won't work legally but I remember onana complaining when we weren't in Europe,that he had to take a 20% pay cut or some figure close to it.That will perk them up.

S

stephenjholmes13d ago

Worried enough to have put £20 on us getting relegated. I got 33-1 so at least if the worst we're to happen,I drown my sorrows. Best case scenario, I lost £20. I can definitely live with loosing £20

Bryan Mbeumo is staying positive despite the defeat - do you share his optimism the players can turn it around?

E

ericjsmithesq4d ago

If you don't believe me, go watch the game against the 'mighty' Celtic yesterday.He would not put up with any crap from Primadonnas either.

F

febced14d ago

In the face of adversity there's only one thing left - hope. He's not playing with confidence, currently, and ultimately the proof is in the eating of the pudding. Results are gut-wrenching, so his ststement sounds rather forlorn.

H

homoar5d ago

won't be worried as much if Mbeumo didn't say this, how on earth can you turn the downfall around when you declare that you're on an uprise

Lisandro Martinez sees RED as Manchester United LOSE to Chelsea: What is your INSTANT REACTION?

What does this defeat mean for Michael Carrick? The players keep letting him down...

J

joecut14d ago

It was sickening how Lisandro Martinez let his manager, his teammates, and the fans down against Chelsea. His stupidity ruined United’s revival this season. The team's first-half play gave us hope. With Martinez, there was always a danger he could ruin it for us. He did. Two bookable offences in just 90 minutes. Unbelievable!

C

css5d ago

Martinez once again shows who he really is, a hack. The Butcher is just that and its time to sit him and unload him in January.

H

homoar5d ago

why not put on Lacey to try improve the finishing, as none in the team knows how to score

franrobtradepoint6d ago

Got it wrong from the start. Yoro is not a full back.He should have been at the back and Amass should of been at fullback. Thats Carricks choice If Mainoo was fit for the last 30 minutes.He should of started the game. Thats Carricks choice. Two down you bring Mason mount on. With Lacy sat on the bench. Thats Carricks choice. Need i go on.

jordan.harris6d ago

Just an awful excuse of a ‘professional’

S

stephenjholmes16d ago

Michael can't be responsible for Martinez actions, but he has still not given any fringe players a chance. The performance may have been better, but we will still see the usual result. I said before the game, we will get nothing out of any game before Coventry. We're going down

E

Too easy for Rogers to walk through our midfield and defence. Such a poor way to start the second half

B

barryroberts726d ago

I think that's it for Carrick now, doesn't matter if we played better or not, Ineos can't take the chance of relegation. Yes we know who's at fault but we need new ideas. 9 on the run in all comps not since approx 1984.

M

mohan183106d ago

Martinez ruining another match for us, why he is playing even & a red card too. MC deserves to be sacked for trusting him again & again.

M

mohan183106d ago

How frequent have we not seen these kind of goals scored against us, some one just running through the entire 6-7 red player unopposed & scoring. Let's hope we get relegated so Glazers & Ineos will have shame & quit the club as they will not get the money which they need from Manutd anymore

A

adnan.riaz6d ago

@mohan18310, it's so crazy. Teams carve through us like butter and I cannot believe it at all.

D

dancoombs6d ago

It seems to happen every other game. Missing that Casemiro destroyer in midfield despite all the money spent

Chelsea 0–0 Manchester United

A

adnan.riaz6d ago

HOW is this match still 0-0? For either side? One of the wildest performances I've ever seen.

D

david.comerford6d ago

The advantage for United here is that Chelsea are clearly low on confidence too. It's a game that suits them in a way, all the pressure on a team who can't necessarily handle it

D

dancoombs6d ago

We are playing maybe the one team in the league that like us doesn’t have a centre forward

A

adnan.riaz6d ago

@david.comerford, Man Utd have played well. But momentum is key now and I'm not sure if it will last going into the second half.

D

david.comerford6d ago

Well, not *all* of the pressure, but definitely all of the expectation

That Welbeck 90+6 dagger is going to be so painful after these missed chances

A

adnan.riaz6d ago

Don't even need Welbeck at this point... So annoying, man.

M

mohan183106d ago

Welbeck will score for sure & be difference maker to put us wondering how the Ineos didnt even try to get him.

A

adnan.riaz6d ago

@mohan18310, it's Ineos. They're allergic to signing forwards, as you saw in the summer window.

You can tell Amad hasn’t scored a goal since December

S

stephenjholmes16d ago

I have been shouting for Lacey all season.

D

dancoombs6d ago

You have. Michael isn’t listening

M

mohan183106d ago

Yah Amad is showing as i already know he is a showboat, not good enough to represent Manutd. I don't know what end product he has to get so many chances & be in playing squad too. he should go & play 2-3 division lower & get his mojo back, then get a transfer & spare us from his performance

D

dancoombs6d ago

They should probably give Lacey a go if this continues

A

adnan.riaz6d ago

It's a shame that there aren't 10-foot nets at Stamford Bridge. We could be 5-0 up at this rate.
