This is actually kind of sad to watch. It's like us and United have gone in opposite directions. That's probably kneejerk, but until we get our players back from injury or make a few signings I can't see us playing nearly this well.

They look like the well oiled machine we did last season.

Will not judge anything until the first 7 matches.

Our tough early fixtures + the threadbare squad means that we may be well behind some of the other top sides by then. I mean, think about the XI we may be forced to deploy next weekend. Then think of the bench full of players who have never played a senior match for us.

I also heard the commentator in that United game just a bit ago read off their first few fixtures. They should easily go on a nice winning streak to build momentum.

Exactly, if we manage to climbing up to top 4 after 7 matches then I will be happy now. Not bother much about other team results.

Win next week and look less awful..Lose again then just ahhhh!!! Not exactly got easy opening fixtures never mind if we end up far behind the rest. Don't expect to win this season but don't want another outside top 6 finish..

If we lose next week there may be 15/16 levels of toxicity. Win and look good doing so and there will be the belief that all will be well.

If only Eden were fit! 😩

When last time team that has lost 2 in their opening matches won the league?

Happened only once - Man United 1992/93 (they lost first 2 games and then draw third. Despite being 10th in November they still managed to won the league).
