The biggest issues for me are the performances and the players. To be honest, most of the results we've had this season haven't bothered me that much, and I don't think the fans would be that bothered if we were getting these results while playing entertaining football. It'd be disappointing...

Oh, right. Burn. I was more talking about how I've been watching United completely crumble in a few months from a team that could maybe challenge for the league into a team that seems barely capable of making top 4, and how the hell it's all gone so wrong. But no, read the first line of my...

It's been an interesting watch with United so far this season. We had an injury crisis at the start of last season, it took us till December to field our best 11, for a long time the only central defence partnership that played more than one game together was Rojo and McNair. So we sell on...

With United's lack of defenders and Bournemouth's current form, I'd be very surprised if this was another goalless draw. I'd like to see United bounce back from the midweek hardships, go and put Bournemouth to the sword and have the game finished by half time. Is that going to happen? I'd be...

I would 100% rather have Ross Barkley. I see Barkley as much more of a team player, he knows when to take chances and when to play it safe, he tracks back and defends, if someone else is in a better position he'll make that pass instead of going for glory. Coutinho is all about taking risks and...

Unbelievable. But this is how Big Sam plays I suppose. Sit back, let the other team think they're winning, and then hit on the break and try and sneak a goal or a set piece. I hope Newcastle come back, but with 10 men it's probably over.

Tough game. CSKA are a better team than I gave them credit for, solid at the back and insanely quick on the break. Was a crap first half performance by United, our standard moving the ball around and probing but not actually getting anywhere. Subs changed the game around, Schweinsteiger off for...

To an extent I kind of agree. I mean there are definitely more than those 4 (certainly players like Stam, RIo, Schmeichel and van Nistelrooy deserve a nod), but a lot of the players Fergie had weren't world class, first team player in any team, genuine world beaters. A lot of them were just...

We played, for the most part, the combination of players I wanted to see. Rooney behind Martial in particular is something I wanted to see us play, because I think Martial has the talent to be a very good Premiership striker, but he looked isolated against PSV. If he received the ball and Depay...

That might be the most mediocre Liverpool team I've ever seen. Personally, I'd say your best shout is to put Coutinho on the left again and have Firmino play behind Benteke. Put Ibe on the right wing, Henderson and Milner holding. As for the back four and the goalkeeper. Sherlock Holmes couldn't...

Yea, I saw that today. After all the talk, and even Van Gaal name dropping a deal with Derby, I assumed it had been done. It's a good job he hasn't gone, hopefully the Rooney injury pushes Van Gaal to reconsider loaning him out.

I'm still waiting to hear that United have brought back Wilson from loan, and I get the feeling I'll be waiting for a year. Fellaini is not a striker, he physically can't do the job they want him to do. You can't play the ball into his feet because he has no close control, you can't use him as a...

I don't get the dislike over Mata and Depay being played where they are. It wasn't till Mata was played wide that he truly shined at United, after almost a year of never being worth what we paid. And Depay has added much needed pace and trickery to our centre, which is what we need. In any...

Barcelona play beautiful football but every time I see Suarez or Neymar go down like a sack of bricks it makes me want to throw up.

And that's... disallowed
