What do you expect when you put an out n out winger in at more or less full back. Asking for trouble. He played as a striker more or less last week and now full back. He's playing on the wing. The place where we signed him to play. I've seen him nowhere near depoitre. He was signed as a winger. If he was playing as a winger he would be in that position. He's set up as if he's playing wing back or full back and then when we have the ball he pushes up to wide midfield.

The amount of individual errors is what’s most alarming for me. Many ‘unforced’. Could and should be 2-2.

2 huge chances which should have been goals. We can't keep messing up these great opportunities, as we have all season. This is our continual problem. We need a goal scorer, where we could get one who is going to finish off our chances I for one haven't a clue. No negativity in this statement but: we are going down if we dont start converting the chances which we do make.

I know it's not just us, but why don't teams put a defender on the back post for corners nowadays?

And the touch of an axe murderer He'd be a fantastic player if football wasn't a game in which kicking a ball wasn't an inherent requirement.

No negativity in this statement but: we are going down if we dont start converting the chances which we do make. It's not a striker who has cost us today, though. It's an awful finish from a defender and a really poor decision from a midfielder. Depoitre did everything he needed to at the end there.

What the fuck was that from Billing. Depoitre has got himself in space for a tap in and Billing goes for the shot. We've been shocking since conceding. Would you pass to Depoitre?

Depoitre would have missed that tbf. Can’t blame billing for taking that on.

First time all season that Depoitre has got goalside of his marker, and the pass doesn't come.
Plenty of mistakes to moan about but still a much-improved performance so far.

They've been very sloppy in possession. Ole will probably give them the hair dryer treatment for it at half time

We should have had 2 goals there. Kongolo put over from 6 yards & Billing should have squared it for a tap in but shot wide. The story of our season.
At 1-0 we've got a chance, maybe a set-piece.

Depoitre simply can't hold up the ball. Get Mounie on and possibly Hogg for Hade and we could look dangerous on the counter with Mbenza's pace alongside Pritchard and Kachunga buzzing around. Not over yet.

But since then weve given the ball away time and time again and looked all over at the back. Agree. Looked okay til the goal. Since then we've given the ball away a lot and let them in behind an alarming amount. Wingers are being pegged back which, away at Old Trafford, is hardly surprising.

WE'RE STILL IN IT - ONE GOAL DOWN AWAY AT OLD TRAFFORD ON BOXING DAY !!!!
Good times - stay solid, keep it at 1-0 for 20 or so mins and we'll get another chance I promise you.

Total waste from Durm. Get some speed on the cross FFS and get in across the 6 yard line.

And Depoitre fucks up another chance.
Some really good play before that.

He's set up as if he's playing wing back or full back and then when we have the ball he pushes up to wide midfield. Of course he's playing as a winger, the same as Kachunga on the other side. Seriously? They have spent 90% of the time closer to durm or kongolo rather than depoitre. No way are they playing as wingers. Much more like wing backs.

And BTW, our wingers normally are closer to the full backs than the striker. They have been since Wagner arrived.

Mbenza destroying their full backs. So much they've subbed one off.

Kachunga looks like a red card waiting to happen. Maybe a change is in order...

Why did we not loan any strikers before the season started... Surely two were never going to be enough.
