Jesus can't you sad miserable shits just enjoy it that we're in the final?

 

[SirScholes]

Slightly bizzare that some posters are calling out people for being annoyed that we played terrible.

Yes we scraped through for the europa league final after a negative performance against the mighty Celta Vigo.

I know, I'm happy but I do feel slight embarrassed, doesn't feel like a win.

Like when we beat city in the fa cup, we were in control 3-0 I think then ended up hanging on 3-2 against 10 men

 

[Maradona10]

Jose mourinho's superstion worked a charm.!

 

[Sandikan]

Can he be retrospectively banned?

Not sure in this cup.
I doubt it, as the English press won't make a huge fuss of it like they do over here and influence the FA.

It'd be hard working dealing with a Darmian- Jones-Smalling-Blind back line.

Not to mention the horrific irony that instead of using Jones and Smalling as fodder to keep the starting centre backs safe, we'd in effect be trying to keep that pair safe instead!

 

[Web of Bissaka]

We don't kill the game when we're in control, inviting the late high pressure.

Blessing.

I can understand the Celta Vigo's players heated frustrations leading to that drama fight.

 

[bleedred]

Your posts are horrible to read. We just got into a final.

Pathetic, snivelling and defeatist.

Doesnt feel like it... Pathetic performances like those wont last in the long run.

I am not going to apologise for being a realist.

Jesus can't you sad miserable shits just enjoy it that we're in the final?

The performance has massively taken the shine of it, I'm relieved not happy

 

[Desert Eagle]

Shit performance but a result everyone would have been happy with if offered at the start. Have to say the ref gave us a lot of 50/50s. We can best ajax but i'd switch things up for the final

 

[saivet]

Again, poor performance, they happen - but it's more the approach that really annoyed me tonight

 

[The red panther]

Mourinho almost cost us the game. Fecking had enough of this clown. Sitting back and allowing Celta fecking Vigo dominate the game at Old Trafford, unreal.

Totally agree,

I'am fecking livid atm on Mourinho, such a total clown !

His dirty stupid negative tactics and substitutions just gave the match completley to Celta and could have cost us the final. They definatley cost us Bailly

He better make sure he fecking wins this thing and saves his season in the process...

 

[Stactix]

Too many passengers. Full backs dont add anything much going forward. On the wings mkhi gets pushed around too easily. Lingard has some good moments but no real end product. Overall our wide play needs to improve tremendously.

Thats because of Mourinho though. They sat back for most of the game because they were told to.
Still need a better lb though.
Almost cost us the game.

 

[Andersons Dietician]

Absolute garbage. Can Jose not just speed up his meltdown and leave already please.

 

[Keeps It tidy]

Yeh the way he sat off them, his tackle near the end was outrageous. His touch really isn't that great. He totally should have scored his chance. How he let that man run past him is beyond me. He's a Championship level defender at best. Really doesn't convert enough chances for us to build our whole strike force around him.

If you go down that route he should not get any credit when we play well.

 

[Sunny Jim]

Congrats from a Juve fan, would be great to meet you guys in the European Supercup!
That Celta chance with 10 seconds to go was surely a heart attack moment!

I wish Juve all the best for your final. Gigi deserves the cup.

 

[Fully Fledged]

We got through ergo not a disaster.

But performance sucked.

You do realise that people survive disasters?

 

[newgiz]

What should have been a comfortable win turned out to be something far worse. I know we should be happy about getting to the final which I am sure we are when we look back at this game a day later or so, but the overwhelming emotion right now for me is more of a relief that we are in the final, and a bit of an anger on how we performed.

This was a mid-table shit Spanish side playing at OT and frankly they shouldn't even have had a sniff. The absolutely poor substitutions and the lame tactics are a cause for serious concern. I don't want to be too critical but that could have ended up being an embarrassing way of exiting the competition and that would have been down to the manager.

 

[Kostur]

The performance has massively taken the shine of it, I'm relieved not happy

Man, we've been a shaky and poor bunch half of the season really, it's nothing new, just enjoy it that we're there and hope for the best. Sure this performance was dogshit but still.

 

[VanGaalEra]

Just changed my pants. Stained all over.

fecking United always do this to my heart.

 

[SachinJ22]

What a last 10 minutes! If Guidetti had scored that last chance Jose would have killed himself for using negative tactics. Why do we have to make things hard for us everytime?

Bailly has to learn to keep his cool whatever the opposition players say or do. Fortunately Valencia wasn't sent off otherwise it would be really difficult to win the next match.

Probably the worst game of this season against a team which is 12th in La Liga.

 

[Canucantona20]

might have to check my blood pressure after that. The final will be tough think Jose needs to play Mata instead of Lingard.

 

[Andycoleno9]

We were bad today. We are bad last couple of months.
But we are in the finals. One win from european trophy. Only trophy that we don't have. One win from champ league. With squad full of deadwood. City, arsenal, liverpool, tottenham they all play maybe better football. Did they won something this year?
I am happy. We are in fecking final of europa league!!

 

[Di Maria's angel]

Jeez. Two red cards? The feck happened? I can't find any clips yet

Stupidity. Nothing more.

 

[bleedred]

fecking state of this place. Seriously... we're one game away from the CL. You think Jose cares about our fecking performance. Do or die game.

Fans wouldn't care about the performances if it was a one off..But this is us week in week out

 

[Moonred]

Just go on and win the final.

 

[Borden]

fecking state of this place. Seriously... we're one game away from the CL. You think Jose cares about our fecking performance. Do or die game.

Yeah it's not as if Mourinho has ever done this before or anything.

Or maybe people are mildly annoyed at the fact that we handed Celta Vigo the ball and the initiative after we scored, sat back, and prayed they didn't score more than once for the remainder of the game. At Old Trafford. And maybe people are right to be.

 

[roykeane19]

What?

Did you even watch the match? There were 11 Mourinhos on the pitch, they kept on bumping into each other when they were trying to attack

 

[MrSingh2002]

Mourinho really needs to start letting us attack as a team rather than only 3 or 4 players.

Bailly lost the plot and showed massive inexperience with the incident.

Lets all LOL at Aspas and Guidetti. They wont sleep tonight the cnuts.

 

[Tom Van Persie]

Jesus can't you sad miserable shits just enjoy it that we're in the final?

Exactly. Sounds like some people are upset at us reaching the final

 

[Shimo]

We are horrible at home - we have absolutely got to sort it out by next season. When we invite pressure, why the hell do we not know how to counter-attack.

Good thing is the final is somewhere else. A performance like this there and we'll definitely be playing Thu night football and another bucket load of games next season.

 

[RedTillI'mDead]

Mourinho almost cost us the game. Fecking had enough of this clown. Sitting back and allowing Celta fecking Vigo dominate the game at Old Trafford, unreal.

Have to admit the negative tactics are seriously jarring. Granted we are in a final, but Mourinho is on a fine line between reasonable success and massive failure.

The final is a must win and then Mourinho needs to work some magic in the summer.

I just don't get the whole sitting back, its only ended up being worse for us every time we have done it.

 

[Kevin]

Doesnt feel like it... Pathetic performances like those wont last in the long run.

I am not going to apologise for being a realist.

Bravo.

Horrendous performance. Play dirty and negative? Fine. But he doesn't even get the team to do that well, we conceded enough chances to lose. His masterplan didn't work and fact is we are in the final thanks to some bad finishing and were lucky.

Mourinho still has it all to prove that last season was not an anomaly.

 

[FreakyJim]

We're like a dead corpse slowly rolling downhill.

 

[Oscie]

might have to check my blood pressure after that. The final will be tough think Jose needs to play Mata instead of Lingard.

Absolutely. Genuinely struggling to see what Lingard adds.

 

[Red Pavan]

Rooney coming on jinxed us.

 

[Smudge]

I miss Zlatan and Rojo

 

[Antisocial]

I love listening to Ander speak, he always has such a great message - that last reply to the "doing it for Zlatan" question by referencing to the contribution of Rojo and others who will miss the final as well was an excellent response; proper captain material

 

[wolvored]

Please please please Jose. I beg of thee on everything that is good and righteous. I will give you my firstborn if you stop with the sitting back and inviting teams to score when we are one goal up and dominating teams. I can't take anymore of it.

That wasnt tonights game

 

[Ban]

Jesus can't you sad miserable shits just enjoy it that we're in the final?

If we don't win it it will be a blessing in disguise.

 

[ZAGREB RED]

Valencia deserved a red card more than Bailly, he cuffed Guidetti round the ear, Valencia shoved him hard in the chest with both hands. Guidetti's reaction was pathetic though.

 

[Sied]

Far from a great performance but job done. Will need to do better in the final.
