We just need that final x-factor. We create boatloads but for some reason the moment we shoot, it's like giving the controls to a 5 year old. 

Why the feck can't we keep it on target against sides like these. 

Still top of the league at least. Need to pummel Zenit now

Pulisic over CHO. If so, Chelsea wins. He gives immediate offensive threat. Saw that today, even playing totally out of position at right wing. Did more in 20 minutes than Alonso did the entire game.

f**k perspective. This was a predictable and embarrassing f**k up. We will not win the league. Liverpool and City must be pissing themselves laughing at us.

40 shots to 4 in two home games and 2 points out of 6 against Burnley and sh*tchester United.

That lad Coronet at Burnley looks a decent striker. Could we not make an offer in the winter window?

 

Feels like an FA Cup loss against a League One side. Frustrating.

United were absolutely dire, created their two chances after schoolboy errors from our players. Overall they are diabolically sh*te, can't believe we did not win against this shower of sh*te.

Two lost points...

These kind of matches could cost us a real attempt at the title.

We need to win games that we are that much in control.

We are not clinical enough and that will probably be our downfall.

Feels almost like a defeat, we need to win our next 2 games to get back on track, especially with Liverpool and City breathing down our necks now.

21 games into the season, and our top scorer is Reece James with 5 ... ALL our forwards should be hugely embarrassed about that stat ... they simply have to do better.

 we cannot set up defensively on our set pieces like we did for the goal we conceded. 

It doesn't matter what set up do you want to us. if your last man miscontrol the ball it is going to be one on one on the other side. 

Tuchel doesn’t think that 2 goals out of 40 efforts in two consecutive home games is a problem. That’s a problem.

This one is on Tuchel, I have no idea why he stuck with Werner for so long, and I have no idea why Ziyech is going to play the full match, he has wasted absolutely every chance for us.

Yep, really strange from TT to leave the changes as late as he did - especilly when we had so many good options on the bench.

Was always a chance United would benefit from the new manager bounce and they did just that but we let them off the hook big time.

Too many players not quite up to speed today and some staid on the pitch far too long. Points dropped but it could have been worse.

I think the only one I have hoped on is Lukaku to be hones

You guys know it's not the end of the world, right? The season isn't over today. It was a poor performance, but we've been great the last few games. Chill the f**k out.

A special mention to the Anthony C**t Taylor.. gave us the penalty but nothing much .. also probably robbed us of at least 2 mins extra time

CHO should have buried that first chance

We play like a team that assumes we will just get another chance, but as we saw, it doesn't work like that. We didn't get another clear shot on goal until the very last kick of the game. This team needs to realise that any big chance they get may be the only one of the game. Also, when a team gives away the ball and we are in a 2v2 situation or even 3v2 situation, we have to be punishing them. We have robbed teams of the ball so many times this season in those situations and I can only remember one time where we actually punished a team from it.

Just like last year. Top scorer Jorginho with 7 and most of those were penalties. So we scrape fourth by the skin of our teeth and win a cup again. Cup specialists.

You have no real guarantee for that, just speculation now that the game is over...

That’s the problem. Pummel the weedy kid and then get embarrassed by the lad that isn’t a pushover.

That two minutes might have saved us a point.

Pulisic = God. He’s like Jorginho but doesn’t give away silly goals to sh*t teams

Aye but we still need to pummel them.

Yeah some of the posts here have been reactionary. It's almost as if people have forgot about our last two games.

He saved us tbh. Our finishing is atrocious today

I think it's justified to be angry with how we bottled the 3 points in this game, could have easily been avoided with a proper lineup.

I guess it's not us who's winning the league this season. Liverpool and City are a step ahead.

Definitely not. That result is embarrassing. Liverpool ripped them apart, so did City, Even Watford did. 

Pathetic display and poor attitude. We showed up expecting it was won already.

Tuchel is happy. I’m not.
