Thought tactically he would have ole on toast.

Felt we have missed an opportunity. Disappointing.

Tactically with what exactly?

With what we had available and what they had available, honestly what were you expecting differently tonight?

Cant believe he's saying we deserved anything from that.

Stop being an idiot. Subs don't pick themselves. These players consistently let us down and should be nowhere near the team. Even if its unproven kids like Gordon I'd rather see them than those who have proven to be complete disasters like Tosun.

He doesn't trust Gordon because he's young is not an excuse or a reason to give a manager a pass. Maybe Gordon doesn't have it but we all know Bernard and Tosun don't.

Him to put a third person in midfield.

Just three players in the squad were brought in by him.
Absolute meltdowns in here.

Some massive over reactions here. We got outplayed by a rapid team that has our number this season. Just because we won three games on a row doesn’t mean the squad has magically got 5 or 6 world class players added to it. It’s still an awful squad made even worse by injuries to our best players. We had moments in that game but Carlo can’t make Sigurdsson Iwobi and Bernard pass properly.

Keep in mind, no matter how bad united might play most of the season, they still have a squad full of world class players.

Are some of this forum wums or idiots. Im starting to wonder.
They had fresh legs and quality to bring in.
We are now flogging the same players as its basically all we have left.

Biggest challenge for Carlo is to change the mentality of the club - how many times in the games that matter have we turned in a decent performance in recent times. It’s like we shrink when it matters - first 20 mins was pathetic and they should have been out of sight.

this was our biggest game of the season and the quality on the ball was abysmal. Am sure we’ll improve with a few transfer windows but we need lads who relish the big stages and want to win not those that are happy finishing 7th and bottle it in the big games

TBF the last 3 PL games mattered as much as this in the players minds. I just don't believe that PL players get up for this competition.

Which player mate, in place of?

Carlo doesn’t throw his toys out the pram like some on here. Completely rational post match interview. He knows we have to get better players.
