The Manchester United supporters chorused to 'We are the pride of all Europe' as kick-off approached and a lyrical change to 'Europa' would be generous. They have now mustered 18 goals in their manager's 20 matches in permanent charge and the supporters could barely bring themselves to serenade any of the starters.

Daniel James, Juan Mata, Mason Greenwood, Marcos Rojo and David de Gea all have their own song and none of them were aired on mass, save for a quick paean to Greenwood after he was substituted that quickly petered out. Late arrival Scott McTominay, named player of the month for September, was the exception.

The 750 Mancunians remembered Jaap Stam, Andy Cole, Roy Keane and Ruud van Nistelrooy. They do not sing 'Ole's at the wheel' any more while someone ponders a replacement for 'Sanchez' yet the manager's name was among the pantheon playlist. Solskjaer had no fear in approaching the away end at full-time. They ended the night singing 'We want Glazers out'.

Those United supporters who capitalised on The Hague's close proximity to Amsterdam and stayed in the capital will not have regretted it. This was another numbing night in keeping with the tedium of watching United at times since the anomalous opening weekend drubbing of Chelsea. They are an unpredictable team, but the draw with AZ Alkmaar was predictable.

United, winless away from home in 211 days, devoid of four first-teamers and playing on a plastic pitch against the third-best Dutch side, were never going to provide a turn up for the books. Given the context of the fixture and the presence of three teenagers in their XI, a scoreless draw is not a negative result and United's progress to the knockout is unlikely to ever be in jeopardy with four games remaining. They are unbeaten in the Europa League for three years, which may make the highlights of Ed Woodward's next investors' call.

Some of those 750 supporters stood have been present for similarly forgettable European nights in Prague, Athens, Valencia and the like under Sir Alex Ferguson. There were worse nights than AZ against Lille in Paris and in Benfica and Basel. United had dropped out of the elite contenders well before Ferguson took up his row in the Old Trafford directors' box and they were reduced to playing for a draw with Alkmaar.

That guy is the worst united manager in the history of the club, David moyes was even a better fit.

He was just a domestic champion back in his country, he was never cut out for the United job.

Interesting times for United

I don't think these people care about the future of the club as we think, their own is just to make money.

It is a pity my heart fall in love with this stupid club, I av determining not to support them again severally, but in the mind of my mind I know, I can't help but support them, those of u that ported to another club, how did u do it, abeg give me tips.

My club is a useless club.

Of course Moyes was better than Olé, prior to coaching United he was with Everton for a decade or so.


Olé is fresh out like Lampard/Gerrard and the likes.

Where dem burn you?




Fiery Furnace



Bunsen burner



Hell fire?

Wetin Arsenal go come talk? We want Unai out

Ole out..

Can't imagine united can't beat a team we can't even pronounce their name.. Wolves defeated Besiktas at home.. What united can't do.. Am so disappointed.. I don't think the coach is the problem. The problem is the Glazers and Woodward.. As you protest against the Glazers also protest against Woodward


Inside life

ole out

The glazers have no business investing in football. They just don't knw hw to run the business. They should take lessons from abromovic and the arab guys at city. And that clueless woodward should be kicked out. They are all disgracing man u. All these small clubs are looking for an opportunity to play man u instead of trembling at the thought of having united in their fixtures. Imagine arsenals having bragging right over united. De gea has been reduced to apevi.

ole

he should Start using Sergio Romero in place of de Gea


or he should wait until they sack him

if your best keeper keep leaking goals u go for second keeper
