Did anyone saw Gakpo asking for Cassemiro’s shirt ?
Or Did I just imagine it…What an earth will make these lads understand what this game means to us.

Pretty apt.

Fulham away, City at home, Forest away.

Well, I can tell you from personal experience that if this sort of performance continues at Anfield (as it has against teams we are competing for spots against all season) then he (and the team) will find Anfield a very unpleasant place. I’m going to the Chelsea match next week and there bloody well better be a reaction on the pitch.

Some saw it…it is just bad taste, you now…It’s like as if Gakpo knows he ain’t gonna be in the PL any longer…

What do you actually mean when you say that though? What reaction is going to be us being “used to that”? Should he not be criticised, not be called out for his terrible man management, squad usage and total inability to control a game just because some fucking suit in an office somewhere doesn’t want to get rid of him?

For fans to get used to it he needs to start actually coaching the team well. We just got fucking thumped by a crap Man Utd team and were only in the game for a while because they literally passed it to us in front of the goal.

The regression is astonishing. I deon’t care if FSG, John Henry, Michael Edwards, The Pope or God himself wants Slot to stay as coach. He’s fucking useless.

I’ll never get used to this crap, seriously.

Macca was blowing out of his ass at 2-2 and Slot doesn’t take him off. Lo and behold, Macca’s failure to first do a proper clearance and then failed to also charge down Mainoo’s shot turned 1 point to 0.

Way to go, Slot!

Nope.

I’m not going to ‘get used to that’. I’ll want him to do well when we take to the pitch but apart from that I want him gone from our Club. Since the PSG game and his comments after that I dislike him more than I ever did Hodgson.

Sooner he fucks off the better it’ll be for all involved.

In your opinion. I don’t believe the info being fed from the club. I think he’s gone in the summer

Even if he stays, I’ll be surprised if he lasts past October.

That will never not matter.

No, just that when he walks out on the first day of the season next year, the kind of season we have will depend a lot on whether the fans are grown up enough to put this season behind us, and give it a fair chance. At that point he will have had a great season, a poor season, and deserves a chance to put it right.

Once this season is out of the way, everyone needs to take a breath, and give the season a fair shake.

It is eerily similar to Rodger’s final season…

I’ve seen us lose a lot of games at Old Trafford down the years, and it’s never nice, but we’ll get over it.

Are you going to open the post match thread, so we can bitch on there?

How long after the start is a “fair chance”? 5 games, 10 games, 20 games?

A nice turnaround at the start of the second half, after an abysmal first half. Super goal by Dom then we capitalized causing Man Utd to err for the second.

Then when the game drifts, Slot makes some strange choices. Rio coming on was good, but not on the right, especially with Curtis filling in there.

Much better when Rio was moved to the left, with the security of Kerkez behind him allowing him to do what he does best.

Getting Gomez at right back when players were tiring before the Man Utd goal would’ve been the better move.

And of course we ended with the infamous kitchen sink formation.

As for the two first half goals conceded, Slot can rightly speak about luck, but we got carved open on fast breaks which has been a constant theme.

Oh, and the second goal, there was a change in the spin trajectory. Maybe without it, a defender could’ve cheated the ball of the line as to me it looked like some spin into the goal off the hand.
