We're not at the level of these teams yet.
We'll stay up no bother, but needs to add quality as we move forward.
If we beat Burnley and WBA then I couldn't care less about this match.

Doubt it, the longer we can defer the bans the better and we have a couple of winnable games coming up. They'd be less so without two of our top players

Re: Manchester Utd v Leeds Utd Match Thread
I think considering the makeshift defence we're playing well so will draw praise from commentators

Misplaced pass carves us open and this time it is James to do the damage.

Re: Manchester Utd v Leeds Utd Match Thread
That's a good goal from James, we are playing well up the park so no disgrace for our defence. Again required a little luck like a couple of others but well finished..Maybe a Meslier error?

Blame lies fully at bielsa's feet this one. Defence has been horrendous all season. Can't be playing the same way against every team in the prem. Embarrassing

Re: Manchester Utd v Leeds Utd Match Thread
Attacking wise, we've had a real footballing lesson today. Oh to have Rashford up front for us.
