How do you people watch football? Jones had no business with Giroud. Jones' man was Koscielny.

It was Schneirderlin who should have man marked Giroud for the cross. Valencia also had a better chance to contest that header with Giroud but we know Valencia has poor aerial ability.

Koscielny technically blocked Jones to ensure Giroud had a clear header. Schneirderlin ensured Koscielny had a free header.

I haven't seen any players rating analysis that blamed Jones for the goal.
no mind dem Jones was excellent today, i just can't help but feel sorry for smalling.

and for those people calling for rashford to start in his favorite position, hope you guys have been served the "not bad as zlatan" performance.

If Schneiderlin picked Giroud, he would had no chance of having a good header on the ball.

Jones marked Koscielny. But who marked Giroud? We even outnumbered them in the box, 8 against 5. Yet Giroud was unmarked.

Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by weedtaker: 6:22pm On Nov 19, 2016
we should get a winger [LW] dis January and a centre back.

Rashford was isolated upfront na.. Mata who's supposed to create was busy dragging the striking position, Pogba created little also! What do you expect him to do?

aside the fact of being isolated, he created little and made it hard for our wing play to yeild anything fruitful, his positioning inside arsenal's box was average, [ something he's known to be very good at], and finally his decision making was shyte, imo lingard would've done a better job.

you know, Rashidi lost almost all the duel today! Zlatan would have caused a lot of trouble today... But who am I to blame him...

I am not really happy with the draw. Arsenal aint expecting this from us even me! We are still not get things right up front

If Fellaini was on the bench he would have gone in instead of Morgan. No way Giroud has a chance in hell getting a free header.

The one area Rashidi needs massive improvement is in his hold up play with his back to goal. He's really terrible in that aspect, but he has the time & im hoping he works on this.
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Elxandre(m): 7:00pm On Nov 19, 2016

8 minutes extra time and two red cards.

I think Kameni is the most underrated keeper alive.

Rashford is known for his finishing, not his creativity and I don't think I've ever seen him miss a goal scoring chance.. The responsibility is on the team to create chances for him and the team failed in that aspect!

That said, his link up with Martial in the first half was quite good.

Rooney did not do better at CF today; no shot on target didn't create more chances up front than Marcus did.. Carried no goalscoring threat.
he played well. his movement opened up spaces which the others around couldn't read on time or were just no fast enough.

I can only point to one mess up in his movement when Pogba snatched a ball for counter attack & Rooney was just as confused as the Nyashnal defenders on how to make a great run.

It's obvious United Fans are Oliver Twist..... very hard to please and satisfy. The Team is on right track, and JM is doing his works excellently.

We are dropping points not unnecessarily, rather unluckily. We are playing good football, the Players are gradually getting confidence to play and dominate Games with no regard to the Opponent(s).

We did miss Ibrahimovic Today! He would have scored or got an assist in the Match. Also we would have blamed JM if he started Rooney ahead of Rashford as a Striker or Martial as a Winger. We are indeed Oliver Twist.

The positive things are; the Team is picking up and gaining confidence. I'm so happy to see Mata and Herrera proving Doubters wrong week in week out. Also it's so amazing Jones played 2 Matches consecutively without getting injured.

I thought Rojo was a new Signing until I put on my Glasses to see clearly. He's also improving and seems ready to fight for Shirt.

Mkhtaryan is happy at United. He's definitely happy and he's training hard to get fit and ready! We ain't at Carrington. We do not know whether he's ready or not. I think we should trust the Manager on this issue.

We should stop blaming any of the Lads for the goal conceded. What did you expect from Wenger to do? He's a top Manager and he did the right thing. It's either they lose honorably or fight to get a draw. He made a good move and it panned out positively.

I'm proud of the Team, also happy the Fans are furious for getting a point out of possible 3...... it shows the winning mentality is back!!!

He was poor!

He lacked any presence as a striker today.

Lmao... We created little yet you expected something from the striker? Also, those Pogba's chipped passes won't work for Rashford. It barely works for Ibra whose height makes up for it but with Rashford, it's just nonsense!

"Imagine if we had the six points we lost at home, where we would be. We had three amazing performances. I am sure we are going to play other matches like that at home and we are going to win. That’s football.

"What we did against Stoke, Burnley and Arsenal at home, is for the people to leave the stadium with the happiness of the nine points, but instead we go with three points, which is really bad, but the performance levels make me believe a lot in the future. It is not possible that you are unlucky every game, but in this moment we are unlucky every game, which is incredible."

"The work was good, they are working well. Jones and Rojo did not go to the national team, they stayed and we worked in the past two weeks.

"They are working so, so well. Antonio had a broken arm, but he played amazingly well. Top players like Sanchez, Ozil, Walcott - we saw nothing from them because of us, not because of them. We had good chances: if Rooney had passed to Pogba he has an open goal. Rojo had a header with an open goal. We had chances to kill the game at 2-0 but out of nothing, 1-1."

"The players are quiet. They feel like it is a defeat and they are very disappointed. But I told them, the worse feeling is when you are upset with yourself because you didn’t perform or you made big mistakes, but they cannot have that feeling.

"They have to be proud with what they did, but obviously they are very disappointed because we lost two points against a very good team that did not have a shot [on target]."

"Everybody knows that [the bad luck]. Not me, because I am Manchester United manager, not you because you are the Manchester United journalist, but I think everyone knows this.

"The boys, they played so well, so well. From the defensive point of view, they were perfect except the goal. We were perfect the way we controlled them, we were so good. David De Gea, not one save. We were dangerous, we scored, we should have scored more. We were very positive in our approach, very aggressive, pressing high, but we were very, very unlucky."

"I don't want to speak about it. I have a very good feeling with Andre Marriner. He is the kind of referee who, if he makes mistakes against my team, there is no intention.

"He doesn't want to be the star of the game, he is a good referee. I don't want to say if it is a mistake or not; I know because I saw the video, but I don't want to say because he is a good referee."

Which positioning are you talking about? He saw little of the ball yet you're talking about positioning? Even Ibra often drops deep to create chances for himself as soon as he realises nothing is forth coming.. Rashford isn't as good as Ibra in that aspect but as long as the team creates the chances, he's good enough to finish them off, even quite better than Ibra..

[b]“We were really close to winning the game but this is the Premier League, this is football and you know that every team fights until the end. They did that and had one chance at the end of the game, Giroud with a great header, and we only get a point.

“I think it was a good game from our side and for the fans. It was a typical Premier League game with emotion and passion, with goals.

“We were really close to having a happy weekend but now we can’t have a happy weekend. We can be proud of the performance, but obviously we’re really disappointed with the result.

“It was a great run from Ander. He always chooses the right option when he arrives on the ball. I felt the ball was coming to me and I could finish first time. I would have been more happy if it was the goal that meant three points.

“I always feel really privileged to play in these kinds of games and score goals in front of the fans at Old Trafford, so we need to try to do it more.

“We didn’t score [in the first half]. Cech made two or three good saves and we have to deal with that. At the end of the day we only scored one goal and it wasn’t enough today.

“I don’t know [if it was a penalty in the first half]. Valencia isn’t a player that normally falls to the ground for no reason but I don’t know as I didn’t see.

“We feel the same. We’ve had three games, three draws. I honestly feel that we have deserved to win these games and we would have had nine points instead of three and be really close to the top.

“But we have to be positive, think about the performance and keep playing like this to get the points.”

I just can not for the life of me understand why Mata was subbed. He was our most dangerous player and Arsenal were doing Jack.
This is two points lost. And where did that extremely long added extra time come from?
I still believe This team is a good team capable of winning this league sooner or later.
Jose will get things right in the end. We just need to get behind the manager and support our colours.
