We look shattered!

Squad not stepping up. Especially in midfield and attack. No movement no pressure on opposition.

Kane and Eriksen can't carry us every game.

We really needed January signings in this period.

Eriksen was poor tonight. I know we love him because he gets us late goals, but take out the last 5 minutes and he's not that missed a lot of the time.

Tarrico is 100% correct. Some of our fans cannot see it though.

Anyway, we were lucky again today imo. I think Adebayor should have been sent off after 16 minutes.

If we don't put in a better performance next week, all United will need is a bit of luck, an iffy decision etc, and could easily go out.

Just imagine the panic on our players faces if we go a goal down. If we don't play well we could easily go out in extra time or penalties.

Drop Davies rating down and I think I'd agree with that Billy.

The thing is Poch can't afford to discard/ dismiss too many of the squad however mediocre they may play/be.

We have PL, FA cup Europa and League cup to deal with. Rotating is the name of the game. To leave Ade or Soldado sat on the bench isn't going to get the wage bill down so they might as well join in.

Yes we looked so tired still its not surprising when you are only earning 20 or 30 grand a week for two games of football a week.

I know I would have struggled when I was in my mid twenties under those sort of circumstances
