I can't think of any witty Giroud puns but I'll just stick with LOLMANU 

Arsenal have been shite all game as well, United have been the far better team.

Such a disappointment, Martial played better than Rashford and should have stayed on, instead Rashford was shit all match and then lazy at the end and has cost us the win. 

However the positive has to be that we outplayed one of the title favourites today and that this performance was a world away from our 0-0 with Liverpool. Results simply just aren't falling our way at the moment, hopefully we'll get on a win run soon as play and style is slowly clicking into place and it seems to be just a matter of time.

Oh look, the great white hope Rashford plays shit all game then costs us a goal.

And people wonder why every young English players' game regresses after their first season as they start to play within themselves so they don't make mistakes...

Pogba isn't doing any defensively for that goal and where's the full back? Why is Rashford, a striker, one on one on the wing with someone like Oxlade-Chamberlain?

Yes, better not say someone had a shit game when they had a shit game.

Besides, my comment was aimed more at United supporters who have been clamouring for Rashford to play centrally and Zlatan to be dropped.

Not really his point. He said that the goal can't be blamed solely on Rashford, yet he seems to be getting the bulk of the blame when other people were doing their jobs poorly.

Maybe he should, it could totally change the way Man Utd play having a different type of player as the focal point.

He's going to have games where he's not as effective as he could be, he's 19 and playing against an elite team with an elite defence. Cut him some slack.

Rashford wasn't the striker, he was on the left wing and therefore should have gone with Ox, even tripping him up and getting a yellow would have been better than just standing off and letting a fresher player run at him.

I'm not sure where the need is for cutting him any slack here? 2 of us said he played shit today. He did. No one is saying he's terrible, isn't generally playing OK or anything like that.

That's the fullbacks job. The fullback who is tucked in far too tightly inside his own area because no one has picked up Arsenal's midfield runner.

So with 25 minutes left, both Man City and Liverpool are drawing... They'll be winning by the end though, surely.

We don't look like winning...Firmino had a fantastic chance before and hit it wide.

Plus, knowing the way the football gods work we'll all drop points then you'll end up drawing tomorrow despite dominating. That's what normally happens when everyone you want to drop points does.

Frustrated by the draw as we were the better side by far, and should have buried several chances. Southampton defended well though. Really want Klopp to stop waiting for so late for some changes though. I don't see why he waited so long to bring on Sturridge, and especially Origi. A draw at Southampton isn't terrible.
