Where do you fucking start?

Even before the red card, we looked sluggish and not threatening. Ole then decides that a back 8 and time wasting for 45mins or so was the honourable thing to do.

Donny wasn't great at all but he has midfield energy, and Ole essentially left Fred to go tooth and nail with what seemed like 30 energetic midfielders.

I understand going that route if you're 1-0 up away to someone like Villareal. But not fucking Young Boys, basically the Swiss level of Crystal Palace. We made them look like Barcelona as a result.....they thoroughly deserved the win.

I think we're in the Europa League again. Maybe we scrape it this time through a Ronaldo tap in. Maybe not. This coaching team is simply not good enough. Look at the squad. Is it perfect? No. But this list of names is fucking quality. If you can honestly say Klopp, Pep or Tuchel wouldn't be pulling up trees with this squad, I don't know where your head is.

Side note........already a bit concerned with Sancho. When you chase a guy for 2yrs with his kind of stats at Dortmund, but constantly hook him at the first opportunity.........it doesn't look good nor will it help him mentally. I think he'll come good, it's only 5 games but I said this about Donny too. And nothing changed.

Good post mate. Spoken like a true United fan.

Barca are a spent force. I can see serious United level doldrums for them.

so annoying seeing/hearing this from United fans for the past 3 seasons.
Shut the fuck up and worry about your own shit team and leave us be. You lot go smashed in both legs against us and played that "better team lost" crap a few seasons ago. Can it. No one cares.

I had a bit of a legend of a day so less livid than you but with you all the same.

Never been to Dublin and really want to go! Not asking, I’m working :) Enjoy yourself and punch Conor if you can and get on tv, it’d be great. Have fun, get drunk, stay safe.
 
If you woulda told me the worst of today would be two unlucky bounces and deflections I would have taken it.
Good game from the lads, we just have a lot of transitional work to do. Lot of bad passes from Pedri, I don't think he's used to the press, prob a little tired.

Ball needs to release way earlier. Great cameos form the younglings. Cuntinho looked up for it in his appearance.

Encouraging game. Gonna have to keep working and training harder.

Bro, don't mean to bring you down, I was rooting for Barca, but this is far from encouraging. Barca didn't shoot at goal in the entire 90' and could've lost 4 or 5-0 at home if it wasn't for a couple of tremendous saves. There was no luck in the goals except the 1st. Koeman threw a 17 y/o on the pitch and he almost earns 2 yellows. Maybe Dembele, Ansu Fati and Aguero recovering can help. Barca's future looks pretty uncertain, it will take a long time before they can get far in the CL again.

Expected a bit worse.

The youngsters played well down the stretch.

Love me some Gavi.

Still living rent free in their heads after all these years. Sad.

Yeah, I don't really care about your opinion on the matter, I watch and have watched Barca more and longer than anyone in this thread, so I know what I'm atalking about. We played great defense prior to the first very unlucky goal. Second one was after a great restart from Bayern and the third was a formality. Bayern are the strongest team in Europe at the moment, to lose 3-nil with an out-of-sync team lacking identity as well as Aguero, Dembele, Fati (Whom you failed to mention prob because you have no clue who he is), Dest and Braithwaite, as well as Pique, Sergi and Alba all having knocks...3 nil is about as good as it was going to get.

Contrasted to 2:8 with a far inferior Bayern side than they have now, I'm good.
