I really hope Man-U don't win, want them to cry about that perfectly legitimate goal

I'm baffled that is even being labelled as controversial As clear a goal as you will see and suggestions of Arsenal giving a goal back is utterly ridiculous

Ritchie did do well towards the end of last season, he was solid enough and he clearly had an affect on the team by driving them This season however he's been horrific, ultimately he's not a left back. His legs have well and truly gone, don't think he even offers anything in a more advanced role Lewis has to play from now onwards, though a LB in January would do nicely

Emotions get the better of people, he's not the first player to have that (see Shelvey after his sending off at Spurs and I remember Hayden at Cardiff) and he won't be the last Overall I think it's fair to say he's been a decent servant for the club but under a normal club he would have been moved on a couple of years ago

It's not his fault he is still here and it's not his fault that he kept on getting picked but yesterday was his fault, the initial clearance/pass was pathetic and then his decision making too so he's rightly going to get criticised for it, even more so when you consider the magnitude of the game

There was one slightly wayward pass but Lewis recovered it by winning the tackle, aside from that he was brilliant. He's our best defender by far, actually criminal that he was out of the side never mind the squad

Could do with some fresh legs

Joelinton giving it away cheaply, needs to be better

GET IN

Lewis will probably make a mistake now but how much better than Ritchie has he looked It's baffling he hasn't had a look in

Me We've had some half chances on the break but all this running will be taking it out of the players We are not very fit with eleven players so we'll be gassed very soon A clean sheet would be immense and just have to try and beat Burnley

It's not even a case of hindsight, we've all known for ages that he's shit and a liability It's just frustrating that it's come in such an important game

We've known for ages Clark is shit, Howe is learning that today in a very painful way

Daft from ASM, let Gibson try and control it

That's never a pen man

There is a reason we have been saying Clark needs to be away from the team

fuck off

No chance we keep a clean sheet, just got to hope we can outscore them

I think it's because the next 2 are clubs near to us plus 6 points from those 2 should mean even if we get nowt from December, then come January we shouldn't be too far adrift

Southampton is very early in the window but we need to try and get signings done before that Watford game, if we leave it too late then we are potentially throwing away winnable fixtures with a few additions

No chance with James around However he is very good and if there is a chance of us signing him we need to do it

That's the players I would go with, would swap ASM and Joelinton but it has to be this But Clark will come in and Fraser will start as well I reckon

I think 4 points is the minimum needed, get 4 and I think we are still in with a chance

Expected us to lose, a point or a win would have been a massive bonus so this doesn't really change where I am at I'd say 7.5, 6 points from the next two and I'd drop to 6. 4 points takes it to an 8, anything less and it's 9

I expected us to lose so not overly concerned even if we were poor We must get 6 points from the next 2 games, worst case scenario needs to be 4 points
