Rooney will be fucking hating this. Surely the nail in the coffin for his position as an automatic starter.

Leicester's defending.....

Going to struggle at times this season I think; they look so vulnerable.

Yeah. Fucking shame they sorted it out for this match.

I think Ranieri is going to have to rethink his 2 man mid with the way we keep conceding.

A massive shrek-shaped cloud is no longer casting its horrific shadow over Old Trafford and we are playing with a pace and a freedom I've not seen from United in a long time.

Pogba has been liberated.

And Leicester have defended terribly.

I guess he'll just have to settle with 300k weekly without having to play regular football.

4 of our 6 Premier league games so far have been televised and we've not won one.

Leicester simply a better team right now. Said it at the start of the season, it will take a while for United's new players to bed in, especially without a defined system in place (like Guardiola's). Dropping Rooney would certainly help the process along, get Mkhitaryan in there please.

Ha.

This has been...unexpected.

This will be 2 wins in their first 6 for Leicester. Must be one of the worst starts for a defending team.

Don't think I've seen an opening goal wreck us (or anyone) so much. Before that we had the better of it, not by much but we were edging it. Then we just turned to shit.

Don't really see what Ranieri can do here. If we had a fully fit squad you'd probably throw Mendy on or James and play another man in the centre and take off a striker. But they're out so the other option is to put King in but he's not particularly defensive.

The bench is made up of 2 wingers, 2 strikers a cb and King who's really an attacking mid. Ranieri can only really keep it as is or go more attacking on the massive off chance we can get a couple of goals.

Should be thinking about Porto though now. No point risking anyone here.

Only fair to say that even though not having Rooney helps us play this kind of one touch attacking football its also a massive help having someone half competant next to Pogba.
That 4-2-3-1 we were playing was just awful. No idea what Jose was thinking

edit what a hit

Come on, we only need 4 more goals from absolutely nothing and we'll win this!

Blind is much better than Shaw at LB and should start there from now on.

One positive was Gray, played well in his 45 minute spell.
