So Garnacho scored his first Chelsea goal and they still lost?

So very, very gutted for him.

My word if Bruno MEANT that leave, then wow, that's 4D chess level of awareness. Get in!!!

Zirkzee needed to be ALL over that one 🤦🏻‍♂️

I mean if that was a decisive goal, you'd be fuming

Mike Barclay @mikeunited.co.uk · 17h

I mean, never a foul from Dorgu. But fair play Danny Welbeck 👏🏻 Great strike.

Mike Barclay @mikeunited.co.uk · 17h

United aren't "back" and I refuse to be drawn into resting on any laurels when we've been so poor for so long.

But that off the ball work. That forward synergy. So refreshing to see when it works.

You'd take a draw at Anfield, wouldn't you? But jeez ... if we could pull off a win here

I mean, that's a peach from Mbeumo!
Refuse to be anything other than cautious though. How can you be??

It's impossible to know how to feel.
Cautiously optimistic?
Hopeful?
You're right, it's the unpredictability that's painful!

Mike Barclay @mikeunited.co.uk · 20d

Refreshing to hear some positivity! A lot of nervous Reds would have you believe we were vulnerable 2nd half.

Mike Barclay @mikeunited.co.uk · 20d

Surely happy to be proven wrong on this occasion??

Mike Barclay @mikeunited.co.uk · 20d

How was it Ed??

Mike Barclay @mikeunited.co.uk · 22d

Match day.

The hopes are mid. The expectations are zero.

What will be, will be.

It's only a game, right? 😩

If he persists with the formation, at LEAST switch the personnel. There's a better balance Ruben could strike with the players he's got.

Let's do this.

Some fans are losing all faith in Ruben Amorím after the 3-1 defeat at Brentford.

Is he really United's worst-ever manager? Is it his fault?

It's multi-faceted, and far too nuanced to simplify that much. But something has to change.

Well, Leicester-Wrexham was a LOT shorter on quality than I expected!!

Wrexham fought hard for the point. But Leicester were just crap.

Amazing away support from the Wrexham fans though.

Mike Barclay @mikeunited.co.uk · 25d

Off to see Leicester-Wrexham at the King Power tonight, managed to get tickets.

Always find the King Power a decent stadium with vocal home support. I'm just curious to see two teams with very different recent histories playing each other!

Mike Barclay @mikeunited.co.uk · 27d

That's a really great shout. The value of an experienced voice of reason in his ear could make a huge difference.

Mike Barclay @mikeunited.co.uk · 27d

Nick Woltemade is a great player. Love his style.

Mike Barclay @mikeunited.co.uk · 27d

Absolutely agree. The very definition of square pegs in round holes.
