Next Match: Feyenoord (A) - KO: 18:00 BST, Thursday, 15 September - UEFA Europa League

Talking Points:

  • Performances of Mkhitaryan, Lingard, Pogba, and Blind.

  • What is our best formation going forward? Will a midfield of Pogba and Fellaini work against bigger opposition?'

  • Should Rashford start going forward, on the left?

  • What are your thoughts on Feyenoord?

The best team won. They actually played some excellent football as oppose to our long ball tactic to Fellaini & Zlatan. It's early so we'll learn from this, the team, Mou and hopefully the terrible refs too.

Is anyone else glad that we didn't go for Stones?

He's looked pretty solid under Pep so far. However, I believe Bailly has a much higher ceiling in terms of talent.

The main reason for the loss was the selection of the starting 11. Lingard should never have started such a high profile match after a month of absence. Also Mkhitaryan was not 100% fit, not Jose's fault though.

I know this will get downvoted but if we want to win the league we have to players in their proper positions.

Blind was amazing in the first 4 matches but I think his best position is CDM. Fellaini gives it all for the team but I don't think he is natural defensive midfielder. Schneiderlin or Blind should play the CDM position.

If anyone hasn't seen this: https://theaustinreynolds.wordpress.com/2016/09/10/manchester-united-manchester-city-12/ good read imo

Sad about the result, great derby though. Exciting football for 95 minutes.

Shitty first half performance. Second half I was happy how we picked ourselves up and came out firing.

Jose deserves some of the blame first half and so do the players. Not a fan of what Jose said post match - he should have left it at individuals were bad but he has to take responsibility.

Going forward I don't care what anyone says Rooney cannot be in the team. We need to play a 4 3 3 with Carrick with Schneiderlin/Herrera and Pogba in midfield. Also wouldn't be a bad idea imo to try Blind there - let him ping balls about similar to a Kroos type player (I said similar not as good) until we can get an improvement or unless Blind proves himself (which I think he can - if he cost 30m I think peoples opinion would be a lot different)

Mkhitaryan was shite but he has talent and we need to keep playing him so he can get used to the league - he could have been injured as well. Not sure I agree with him being used in that game.

Blind has been good for us but I'd like to see Smalling put back into the 11 and solidify a back 4.

Overall I'm not mad - De Bruyne had a brilliant game and tore us a part.

I'd like us to try something like De Gea Valencia Smalling Bailly Shaw Carrick Blind Pogba Martial Ibra Mkhitaryan.

Jose said he is responsible for the loss and he got the team wrong. Not sure what you're on about.

Rashgod must be a starter at this point, don't care who's gonna be dropped.
