That first 30 mins was probably dumbest we’ve played all season.

Then we realised how bad they are, and hey presto.

Take them to cleaners now and give Gomez a cup of coffee at half time or something.

We weren't bad. We got into very good positions but we were a bit tentative.

This ITV commentary team is hilarious. According to Dixon, Uniteds midfield was dominating us at the start of the half. And the delight when our goal was ruled out

Didn’t realise Dixon was a massive United fan.

Anyway these are absolutely shite, should get another few second half.

They are so shit. Time wasting from 11mins. Did nothing but dive and time waste. Absolute shit, I hate them. Hope we smash them to pieces in 2nd half.

Some turnaround. Not been anywhere near our best but two quick goals right at the end changes to whole complexion of the match. Sat in and hoping to hit us on break was ideal for them.

Laughed at the amount of time they spent trying to find any justifiable reason to rule out that second.

TALBERT · « **Reply #45 on:** March 17, 2024, 04:24:00 pm »

WOW

they Really, really wanted to rule out that 2nd goal

IS IT A FOUL? No

IS ANYONE OFFSIDE? No

Did anyone handball it? No

Arfff FUCK THEN JUST GIVE IT CHECK COMPLETE

Lee-87 · « **Reply #46 on:** March 17, 2024, 04:24:03 pm »

They tried everything not to give that goal then. First a foul, then an offside then a check for a handball. Fuckers

Magz50 · « **Reply #47 on:** March 17, 2024, 04:24:03 pm »

Hope we smash them 5-1 in the second. Despicable team

And somehow, it's all gone tits up for United, who thought they were in charge.

Draex · « **Reply #49 on:** March 17, 2024, 04:24:04 pm »

Worst 40mins of the season, showed them far far too much respect and were beaten all over the pitch, front 3 looked like they met in the car park and Gomez.. A half to forget for him.

We finally start pressing them and bang we fly into life.

They really are fucking shit.

Honestly, I think that we've been awful by our standards. The fact that we're still beating them speaks volumes.

Hestoic · « **Reply #52 on:** March 17, 2024, 04:24:06 pm »

The entire atmosphere of that game changed when Endo put the ball in the net. Their fear started to show and then when we got Macca's goal, they knew it was just a matter of when. Their inferiority complex is on full display now.

They'll capitulate now.

wemmick · « **Reply #53 on:** March 17, 2024, 04:24:11 pm »

Mentality monsters. Just plugping away. Never down or out. Love these players. One more for us should do it.

Mister Flip Flop · « **Reply #54 on:** March 17, 2024, 04:24:11 pm »

Deserved lead these are absolutely shite would be embarrassing to lose to them. Fernandes is an absolute joke player.

jonnypb · « **Reply #55 on:** March 17, 2024, 04:24:12 pm »

It’s a funny old game

Been pretty sloppy and Utd getting the better of us, yet we go in 2-1 up.

Started to control the game more once the Utd midfield started blowing.

If Endo and Macca just sit in here, Dom’s got acres of space on every turnover.

Exactly. So much space in their midfield.

DarkOfTheManatee · « **Reply #58 on:** March 17, 2024, 04:24:15 pm »

Imagine Fernandes being your captain when you're a club with aspirations/delusions of returning to the top table.

Throws a tantrum at every decision, goes down under every challenge, and isn't your best player to compensate for the massive attitude deficiencies.

sikingthegreat1 · « **Reply #59 on:** March 17, 2024, 04:24:18 pm »

got me in the first half, not gonna lie

seeing bruno taking forever to take all those free kicks, and onana taking forever in getting prepared to taking a goal kick, all those time-wasting to give us enough time for a late push, hilarious!

Redley · « **Reply #60 on:** March 17, 2024, 04:24:18 pm »

Lovely

Was pretty confident we’d turn it round in the second half…then we scored two. They look gassed already, bit like Arsenal in the earlier round.

Red_Mist · « **Reply #61 on:** March 17, 2024, 04:24:22 pm »

Never felt so calm going 1-0 down against this shower. Fuckin knew it was just a matter of time. You could see the second coming as soon as we had them hemmed in. Fuckin beautiful

To be fair he rightly pointed out that their midfield was done in by 28.

A little big sluggish and lethargic in places but Man united are shit so there's always a chance. Not surprised with our recent fixtures we've started slow but the quality will always rise to the top

Fernandes is a wanker

Cheating rat-faced gobshite. Ref has his number, which is mad when it’s against us and at their place. Not complaining though.

That was our absolute worst half of the season and we're still winning

Been creating chances to be fair, but we badly need some control in midfield.

It's not great, they looked decent but we weren't dominated. I think they've been told to take on a fast start given our slow tendencies at the start of matches. We've grown into it as they've exerted so much energy.

I expect us to continue growing into the game.

P.S. Dixon's a massive arsehole. You wouldn't realise he was playing for Arsenal when they bitterly hated Man Utd. Must still be reeling from getting mugged in the 2001 cup final.

Gnurglan · « **Reply #67 on:** March 17, 2024, 04:24:37 pm »

Good game so far. Good finish to the first half. Unlucky with the offside on Endo's goal. They started better. Hope we can keep playing like we did after their goal.

mikey_LFC · « **Reply #68 on:** March 17, 2024, 04:24:39 pm »

Brilliant reaction.

Was Rashford offside from the free kick before their goal? Looked it but my coverage didn’t show it again.

Oskar · « **Reply #69 on:** March 17, 2024, 04:24:41 pm »

Slow start, much better toward the end of the half. Need to kill it off, they're a threat on the counter but conceding twice so quickly will have knocked them.

And Jarell Quansah is brilliant, an absolute star in the making.

David Struhme · « **Reply #70 on:** March 17, 2024, 04:24:45 pm »

Not a great performance but still winning

JRed · « **Reply #71 on:** March 17, 2024, 04:24:46 pm »

Well I had my half time moan all ready to go and they went and fucking ruined it! Haha.
Very strange game tho, we look either not interested or absolutely knackered. I’d get Bradley and a Elliot on for Gomez and Dom

Need more for Szoboszlai, i think Jones walks into this team at the moment.

Unfortunately he can't walk, that's why he's not in the team

We weren't great but they were a lot fresher, had a much easier schedule recently. We have a habbit of letting teams get their tail up as well at the start of big away games, rather than calming the game down.

We're clearly miles better than them, they just have that threat on the counter.

I never seen a side do a high press and low block. Matrix stuff that.

We really miss Elliot and his pressing, Szobo all over the show.

The desperation to disallow anything is pathetic. Feel sorry for Endo as he's deserved a goal. They crumbled pretty quickly once we upped a gear

Funniest possible way to score against Utd. Bruno going down easily and whining about it, then getting booked....
