It would be a decent point if we hadn't had such a wretched start to the season at home. 2bf it's still is a decent point. They're not a shit side Leicester. Feel we should have won but its not the worst result. |

Feel we should have won but its not the worst result. In isolation it isn’t. But there are times when the situation requires more than decent. Today was a chance to send out a genuine message about being in the title race. We didn’t deliver. The other thing is whether or not Ole actually thinks his CBs are good enough. I doubt it given how many good ones he played with so it’s a case of the board and Woodward failing to deliver yet again. It’s hard to be too critical of him on that front. Unless he actually thinks they’re good enough in which case he should be sectioned. |

And hasn't said one word about getting a new CB. |

Defence is sloppy and our attackers half the time cant finish their dinner. Still would like to see Axel starting. Maguire is a problem, he'll go on a run of games where he's brilliant but then he'll go and do something to completely fuck it up. He certainly doesn't deserve the armband. Him and Lindelof dont work either imo. Will say though I thought Shaw was brilliant today. |

I predicted a draw but that was 2 points dropped, sloppy in front of goal and sloppy defending.

And hasn't said one word about getting a new CB. If today wasn't an example of why Bruno should be captain instead of Maguire I have no idea what is. One is (at least partially) at fault for both goals conceded, the other is absolutely vital to both goals scored. |

Still prefer Telles but Shaw is putting up a fight. I think between being second choice LB and our best LCB when we play 3 at the back he could still get good gametime here. |

We’re about to find out how much ambition this club has next month. If they don’t act in the window, there’ll be no excuses and nowhere to hide. A real club looks at where we are with what we’ve got and strengthens accordingly.

I'd be happy just bringing in a CB. We have enough quality everywhere else its just down to consistency with finishing chances.
Need to get rid of this zonal marking aswell. Honestly think that has a part to play in it. We give attackers far too much room doing it.

Hoping for winter signings is a waste of time. |

With Lindelof looking like he'll be out for a few games it could be a blessing. Seeing Bailly or Axel alongside Maguire might actually be a smart move. Maguire is good in the air but turns like a tugboat. Axel and Bailly are much quicker. Maybe wishful thinking but would like to imagine it would work.

Defence at fault for both equalisers, but what’s Rashford doing? Should be 3-1 up before Bruno scored.
