Manchester United and Crystal Palace are currently embroiled in a tense Premier League match which sees the Reds kick off their domestic campaign.
Manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was forced to see his side go 1-0 down after just a few minutes after Palace attacker Andros Townsend opened the scoring.
The sides go in at the break with just Townsend’s early opener separating the two teams despite United growing more and more into the game as the second-half developed.
The Reds will be hopeful they can come back out after the break and turn the game around after their domestic campaign was delayed by one week due to their participation in the latter stages of last season’s Europa League.
After other sides have already played at least one Premier League game with some teams now on two games played United will be keen to ensure they do not lose ground in the league table as early as their opening weekend.
In light of a largely disappointing first-half from Solskjaer’s side, pockets of United fans have taken to their social media to express their feelings in the hope their side can turn it around in the next 45-minutes.
No swagger at all offensively.
Nervous defensively.

Will take more than 1 big signing to turn things around. So many issues at every level- transfers, players, style, roles, board level- everything.

United were Inoffensive. Any definition you want to use still works.

As ever, park 2 banks of 4 in front of us and we can’t break teams down as no space. So we just go left and right. No danger from our right at all.. same old United same old problems

Dan James looking like one of our better players. Sums up the performance for me.

Again needing time to get into the game rather than being up for it from the start. Nothing changes

Average players not united quality: shaw lindelof fosu-mensah, mctominay, james. Almost half the team aren’t good enough to be in the squad let alone be in the starting 11

Predictable, sloppy, aimless and disappointing
