The Manchester United fans in the Transfer Tavern have taken to venting their frustration while firmly parked up at the bar, such is the nature of life under Jose Mourinho right now.
Currently entrenched on their worst run at Old Trafford since 1990, the Red Devils have failed to win any of their last FOUR matches at the Theatre of Dreams.
Some way off the pace in the Premier League title race, the self-proclaimed ‘Special One’ sure does have some convincing to do at the club.
Still, one United star has hinted the performances aren’t that bad under the Portuguese and has highlighted just what they need to do.
England international Jesse Lingard has been talking to MUTV about their run of form, insisting the team as a whole are simply struggling to score.
While Zlatan Ibrahimovic started well in red, the superstar’s Swede prowess in front of goal appears to have eluded him of late, and the performances of Wayne Rooney have been well documented.
Even Marcus Rashford, who has given so much to joy to club and country this year, has been unable to find the back of the net for a while now, much to the dismay of the United fans propping up the bar.
”We’re playing really well but we keep drawing. The performances are there — it’s just (a matter of) putting the ball in the back of the net,’ the 23-year-old told MUTV (with our quotes sourced by the Daily Mail.)
‘It’s four draws in a row with numerous chances — the luck’s not there at the moment. But we have to concentrate on the game on Wednesday now.’
Is Lingard right? Let us know below…
