It’s been truly unbelievable watching this. Every damn player on United were complete **** all game. It’s like the entire team stayed out drinking all night.

Bruno was the worst and should be sitting. But he can't be for some reason.

This game they decide to serve their 6'7 striker not remembering he's out.

Can't beat 10 men Everton. What a joke.

Hard to pick the worst but probably Zirkzee for me. He was totally worthless - I think they could have taken him off without replacing him and played 10v10 and been better.

I disagree, I thought he had some solid moments overall and wasn't bad for having not played. Had some nice passes and hold up play. Definitely not a striker though, Not sure if one of the kids on the bench was a striker, but maybe send him on. Bruno with so many bad decisions, bad passes and missed opportunities was worse.

They missed Cunha. He (and Sesko) is going to have to step up with Mbuemo and Amad at AFCON.

Mostly they couldn't pass, didn't get to any second balls, and couldn't score. I would rather have seen Mainoo start with Bruno pushed to the 10 behind Zirkzee with Mbuemo. Leave Amad on the right. I would expect Cunha back next match.

And I'm a week where Liverpool and City drop full points too.

All of a sudden chelsea.

Everton are above Liverpool in the table on goal difference. The @bigbottom effect. What a time to be alive.

That match was bonkers

I don't know if I have ever seen a red card for teammates fighting each other in the Everton Man United game.

Lee Bowyer at least did it before when at Toon but it was a while ago

saw there was one more recent in the EPL since Bowyer in 2005. I remembered Bowyer after you mentioned it but I don't remember this one below

==============

Idrissa Gueye became the 1st player in the PL since Ricardo Fuller December 2008 vs Stoke to be sent off for fighting with a teammate.​

Blistering first 30 minutes at Stamford Bridge. End to end stuff with both teams pressing high.

This Estevao kid might be pretty good.....

Prediction - 17 year old Lennart Karl will get his first call up this spring, will have his coming out party in the World Cup next summer and will be valued at $80m by next fall.

 

[titusbramble]

He is probably valued at that now

The heat on Slot just got turned up to BOIL ASAP.

It ain't the players.

Is he gonna get sacked after this? PSV just handing it to them.

You misspelled “hilarious.”

Nice day of Champions League footy. Pleased Atleti got one at the death.

More like Arne NOT, amirite?

Just posted in the other thread that I don't see how he survives this. If not for the Madrid and Villa games back to back he'd be gone already IMO. They aren't getting all that unlucky anymore -- they're just bad.

I'm sure they want to wait as long as possible, but I don't see how Slot ends up surviving this. He's getting less than zero out of absolutely top-of-the-world class players. They're not all that dangerous, they can't defend at all, they're making all kind of crazy mental mistakes, the substitution pattern is basically Hail Mary game-chasing stuff. It's really really bad.

Wonder if Red Bull is giving Klopp wings? I have zero doubt he'd have them purring again within five matches.
