A quick dip into our Discuss tab has brought us full-time reaction from a Manchester United fan, a Porto supporter and a neutral observer. No prizes for guessing which one is which…
💬 Sam M: “On behalf of most other fans, thank you Maguire for potentially prolonging this for a few weeks more. Hero.”
💬 Hugo P: “I’ll write a comment from a FC Porto’s fan perspective — how did we manage not to win this match? I’ll tell you why: we have sitting on the bench a ‘coach’ (actually he looks like a farmer) that manages to be worse than Ten Hag.”
💬 Paul C: “I’ve tried to be dispassionate about this. Take the emotion out of things. After the FA Cup final, I still thought he should go. And even after Spurs, I thought the first few games of this season had given him a bit of credit. I thought we were making progress and last season’s long injury list might have been a reasonable excuse. Maybe there could be a bit more method, and a bit less madness.
“But Erik’s post-match interview just now has done me in. Why persist with Rashford, despite some awful performances, only to sub him off at half-time when he’s finally flying? That’s not good squad management. That shows a complete lack of man management.
“And Harry looked like he was being held hostage.”
