if only Rob and Ryan took over Utd......

Too right. Not much between the teams today but thought Pawson was awful. Don't think we deserved to lose, but we definitely didn't deserve a win either.

Love the way ETH is trying to spin the sub booing as a positive

The highlights yes but the analysis showed they were battered

Well they analysed that united were pants and Brighton pulled them right down

The xG score was 1-2. Let's not get silly. Brighton really took their chances.
Brighton's starting line-up cost less than £20m in total, while United spent more than £300m on theirs.

xG doesn’t always tell the true story of the game though. It’s a good indication, perhaps a great indication but can’t be taken as gospel over a small sample size.
Glad I missed the game yesterday.
While the Glazers have to shoulder the majority of the blame - ETH may be another issue. I’m not sure his robotic vibe is resonating with the players.
I can’t honestly say his tactics are particularly clear, or that he’s improved any players by much. His signings have also been dodgy (though the club should be involved there too).
Ultimately it is the Glazers, and even if they bin ETH, no manager will be able to fix things until all of the other issues are resolved.

Binning ETH would be the most stupid thing ever. Arteta first 3 seasons were 5th and two 8th. We have had quite a tough start of the season but our next few fixtures are all against winnable teams.
Also remember we are missing Shaw, Varane, Mount and Antony who were all in pre season. We have had a rotating back 4 is pretty much all of our games so far which is good for no one. Look at the pool 19/20 as a primer example and is no wonder we have leaked so many.
Then add to that Amrabat not being available and the obvious cloud with Sancho.
Add the whole mess with the sale and the Glazer's and from top to bottom it is just a mess.
ETH and his staff are the only glimmer. You can already see our playing out from the back, possession and passing accuracy has gone up quite a bit since last season but adding everything together and it is no wonder things are a bit sketchy.
Manchester United is what it is and the media will turn up the heat in an instant.

Then you are blind and a troll anyway.
