Mourinho's beginning to crack up, his public and very vocal slaying of the team was something even Fergie did very rarely. Everything was said behind closed doors.

I'd like to see some youngsters given a chance. Tuanzebe really should have played at RB yesterday. Every game he has played in, he has looked the part.

We were very wasteful yesterday, we're are mirroring last season in some respects. Yet here we are still in second place. City have got their pipe and slippers on now.

They honestly deserved a public lashing yesterday, some of those missed chances were just unforgivable we should have been 5-1 up. What rashford was doing at the end when he had Lukaku in on goal I have no idea, that game was exasperating to watch.

They deserved slating the game should have been put to bed with our chances and there poor defending through lack of communication cost a goal and 2 points. Bad day at the office for Jones.

The difference is that SAF had built and earned himself an unassailable position over many years so he didn’t have to say as much. The players knew they were out if he said so and he wouldn’t be going anywhere. When SAF first said he was retiring look at the drop off in level by the players. It is also Inter that you overlook SAFs outburst about his Aberdeen players and that was after he won the cup. It was about setting expectations and showing the demand he had.

Jose doesn’t have un unassailable position and some players know it. In time he would have but that subtle difference means he has to communicate differently than SAF did after he established himself. The players have to know they are being looked at, there is no hiding place. Also it’s about time someone said what we are saying, poor rich players being told some Home truths. I hope Jose sorts this in the coming transfer windows.

What used to happen 10-15 years ago and what's happening now are totally different things. It's a different era. Players have all the power and managers have to handle them differently.
The team deserved a lashing and if I was manager, I would have locked them in the dressing room for 3 hours.
I'm getting sick of all the excuses. Our team should have won by 5 goals last night. Something needs to happen.
