Can you really see Ramsdale being the best keeper we can identify?

Hate to say it but Longstaff would be demolished in these kind of games as well.

It’s really only in the last two games we’ve looked truly knackered. Before that I don’t think there was any argument that we needed to change style, start parking the bus, play for draws and all that. We’ve just run out of road with two tough away games.

We already knew he was a significant step down from Pope.

Jesus H Christ.

Would’ve been tempted to just throw this game and leave out a few of the main lads. I know Howe would never do that but it could’ve prepared a few for Milan.

Wash your mouth out young man.

The saddest thing for Man Utd is that this isn’t a shock.

It’s not all about results though.

I don’t really bother with much chat when we lose, I don’t feel the need. We’re doing our best and going in the right direction, losing to Everton makes no difference to anything. I know this is a trite and irrelevant post, but anyway.

I think taking about what is and isn't a valid excuse is a bit pointless. They're just all factors that contribute to an outcome. FWIW we don't yet have enough technical quality (at least not available) to rise above games like last night and simply control possession to take the sting out of the game. Our style contributes to fast-paced and energetic matches. Howe has tried to modify our style and has reduced the reliance on crazy pressing etc, but we still have a lot of players who aren't technically good enough to just outplay anyone in any situation.

Fatigue really gets you when the chips are down as well, like playing away and one of your best players letting a goal in out of nowhere.

The game could've gone either way, the mistake just broke our resolve. Everton's success was a bit overblown for me, they are held to different standards. They get credit of causing chaos and lumping balls into the box, we are expected to play good football.

He was fine, surreal to see him make two identical slips.

Match fixing?

We weren’t that bad like, it was just a very scrappy game.

Bit unfair that we’re expected to play football and Everton get loads of praise for just lumping the ball in the box

Should’ve scored through Miggy but so should DCL. Rubbish game and very scrappy, we need to rise above it. Would be nice for Isak to get involved more.

We must be supremely confident, surely. We have injuries but we've had time to rest and the team we can put out is class.

Space for Magpie Land to be built under the elevated part.

We really shouldn’t even be humouring this with a debate.

Isn’t that because the manufacturers don’t give the option though?

Must be annoying with both teams wearing the same kit.

I don't think Anderson and Longstaff are purples, neither is Miley. They've done a good job though. PS Can we please stop saying purples

To replace Isak as first choice striker?
