What's the general United fans view on Mourinho, Sam/Ninja? Prepared to give him time or concerned it's just not going to work out?

There's not really a 'general' view I can give you. When we start losing games everything gets burnt and people lose objectivity.

I think people (and I include myself in this although I did whinge about our attacking options a lot last years) are realising that the squad is worse than we thought. Huge amounts of money have been squandered on players who either technically or mentally aren't up to playing for United.

Although I think Mourinho identified the problem areas and bought a better calibre of player and he's saying and doing the right things but the problem with United since Ferguson retired has been one step forward and two, maybe three, back.

As for time, he'll get sacked if he doesn't get CL football. Maybe this season as a grace period.

If Mourinho gets time then this squad will be unrecognisable in a couple of years. There's is too much shit in the squad that needs getting rid of, and he's surely seen it in his first couple of months.

It's only November, it's way too early and ridiculous to even think about him getting sacked. That being said things do need to improve, some decisions from Mourinho have been baffling, but like I say it's only November.

Thought Kuyt was going to score then!!! Hope he manages it.

Still would like United to win overall though...

Who'd have thought playing Fellaini in midfield would lead to the opposition dominating us?

To be fair the whole team has been awful.

A nice 3-0 win in the end and that should be more than enough to see us through to the next round.

Be interesting to see if Spurs can turn things around in the second leg.

Fucking hell this is shit, can't even beat a mid table Belgian team. Do well to finish in the top half next season if we do end up playing at Wembley.

Is it not confirmed that you're playing all your home games there next season? Thought it was!

How that pitch was deemed acceptable to play on I have no idea.

A bad second half but a decent-ish result. We should get the job done next week.

Getting the away goal was a must and we did that.

You'd expect it should be quite comfortable next week at home.

Anderlecht v Manchester United

Celta Vigo v Genk

Ajax v Schalke

Lyon v Besiktas

You look at the teams left in this competition and just think what is the actual point of it?

A Champions League place? A trophy? Prize money? Don't be so cynical.

Much better to get knocked out of the Champions League at the knockout phase every year right?

Really we should be beating Anderlecht quite comfortably over two legs.

I feel Celta Vigo could cause us problems if we get them in the semi final.

Ibrahimovic being out is probably gonna help them more than anything. Absolute dogshit at the knockouts in Europe but here's hoping for a Iago Aspas hat trick in the semi's

Kind of hoping we get Ajax in the semi final.

I think Celta and Lyon are a lot more dangerous for us.

Favourable draw for United, but there's never an easy game in Europe when you get to a semi-final. Ajax and Lyon will be a tough one to call.

If we can get past Celta we'll most likely be facing Lyon.

They'll have too much for Ajax.

Tough draw really, but we should be fine. Hopefully we get Lyon in the final and Rafael will help us.

ESPN say Ibrahimovic is out for nine months.

Ajax are looking great! Happy to see Traore playing well and I really hope Conte will bring him into the team next season.

Hoping Celta can beat United.

Very unexpected that tbh.

Delighted we got the away goal in Spain. Really has set it up nicely for the return leg at Old Trafford!

Fuck me Guidetti is utterly pathetic. Pitiful.

EDIT: And then he misses an open goal in the final second, hahahaha.
