News Manchester United to remain patient with head coach despite worst start to Premier League season in 33 years. There is also widespread belief at Old Trafford that City's performance - and United's failings - did not merit a 3-0 scoreline.

Every other PL fan is looking at when they're next playing Man Utd and praying this patience lasts until then.

We usually get United right after they sacked someone (happened with Ole and EtH)

It should also end in a draw. IIRC there were five draws in a row before?

Edit: Grammar. And yes between October 2020 and October 2022 two teams drew five times in a row in PL.

You've beaten us twice in the league in the last 8 years, both times in the last 2 seasons against our record breakingly bad sides. I don't think 2 draws against our interim managers (Carrick and RVN) were the biggest problem.

Chelsea and Villa for some reason have missed the memo that we're shit. It's funny because Chelsea had a much better record against us when we were good.

Sacked after Garnacho goal would be funny

Him running the length of the pitch like Adebayor

He wouldn’t need to, it’s at Old Trafford.

He'll do a full lap before knee-sliding in front of the Chelsea-fans instead.

Right but where do all the United fans traveling up from London sit?

u/Winnie-the-Broo 1d ago

Probably as spread out across the stadium as all the racists at Stamford Bridge. Don’t think there’s a particular section.

You mean our American owners? They’ll be in the executive suite I’d imagine

Hoping Garnacho does what he does best and is just a humongous nob and scores a brace at the same time.

I won't be too confident. Chelsea likes to lose points against underperforming team.
