Good salvage job. Excellent second goal - brilliant training ground routine

 

[calodo2003]

Meh.

 

[JTRI]

A good battle between two evenly matched teams, just glad luck was on our side. Only 1 player lost to injury too this time, a great day at the office.

 

[Nick7]

A point behind the league leaders, level with last years treble winners. WE’RE BACK!!

 

[Catt]

It's exhausting watching our games

 

[cyberman]

Dominated that came from minute 4 to 80 odd. Did everything I was worried we couldn’t do.
Antony electric, Bruno tore them apart

 

[Paul778]

Do the players hate each other or just hate the club?

 

[Freak]

Good come back but we really love making things difficult for ourselves. Even at the end we couldn’t just keep possession and see the game out with our man advantage.

 

[My only Eric]

what a great comeback.

our midfield passing needs work.

 

[Nickelodeon]

Cowardly post 3-2

 

[spiriticon]

We won. I don't mind scraping at home vs Forest if we can also do the same away to Arsenal next week.

If we scrape a win every game, we're champions.

 

[OldSchoolManc]

Taking 6 points from those 3 games is a miracle.
Onwards and upwards!

 

[Tony247]

Meh.

Except for first 5 mins it was a wonderfully dominant performance

 

[geradix]

embarrasing,. we played like cowards against a 10 men team. city would have comfortably smashed this lot if they were in our shoes

 

[Wednesday at Stoke]

Bruno was class. Glad to see him get his mojo back.

 

[Catt]

Cowardly post 3-2

Hm?

 

[drmuji]

Win is a win. I don't mind a scrappy game as long as it gets us back in rhythm. We are not performing well because, in my opinion, we have had a poor preseason

 

[DevilRed]

Horrible first 5-10 minutes. Then we ran through them easily.

Its a mentality problem. Our team just sometimes seems so unprepared to begin a match at times. Its happened over and over again throughout the years.

On the flip side, sometimes we start great, don't score sitters and then end up losing when we fade in the second half.

It would be great to get some fresh legs in the midfield.

Hopefully we sign someone before the end of the window.

 

[Catt]

Bruno was class. Glad to see him get his mojo back.

Love Bruno!

 

[Shane88]

Has any club spent so much on two wingers with so little return from them?

 

[moodyred]

Unconvincing. Happy we got a win though.

 

[Catt]

Lets build on that!

 

[Oranges038]

Dominated most of the game.

The lack of brains up top really hampers the movement and decision making in the final third.

 

[krazyrobus]

It's going to be a very long season.

# Switching off for the goals
# Good pressure, poor finishing but manage to get ahead
# Struggling to hold the ball and maintain possession against 10 men
# Rashford played major role in 2 goals, somehow manages to come out as a neutral if not a net negative

 

[Solius]

Obviously a horrific start. Tactics on the corner clearly not right, followed by a very fortunate header where Boly had no idea when it hit him.

Apart from that we absolutely dominated. Obviously the usual lack of good final ball but the rest defence looked to improve and we should’ve won comfortably.

 

[GazTheLegend]

Wow betide anyone that entered the match day thread at 2-nil down, bunch of bloody drama queens on here

 

[simonhch]

And breathe…..

What a game!

Disastrous start. Somewhat of a freak occurrence their goals but at 0-2 after 4 minutes it all could’ve unravelled fast.

We played with incredible desire and intensity to get back to 3-2 up, and from there you saw us crash. The adrenaline wore off and we got sloppy. It’s hard to go from such intense frenetic football to calm controlled stuff. People completely underestimate human psychology.

Very happy with the win. Big issues to address, but a lot of great football today, tons of character, and a real zinger of a match.

 

[GMoore23]

Poor again but an all important 3 points. Hope we can kick on now.

Arsenal dropped points at home to 10 man Fulham.

 

[rooneyberbatov]

Somehow Elanga, who has left, looks fitter than half of our squad

 

[miked99]

Even when we went 2-0 down I felt we would get a draw at least. But god knows what went on in that first five minutes.

Bruno was great. Anthony was good in the second half. Not looking forward to next week away to Arsenal though.

 

[Pronewbie]

This team is severely lacking in confidence. Clinging on to the last 20mins against 10 man Forest at Old Trafford isn't what you want to see.

Good to see that we've got the characters to fight back to a 3-2 victory though. Eriksen, Casemiro, Bruno, Varane..

 

[JJ12]

Hm?

He wanted us to blast them off the park but instead we did the smart thing and saw the game off with ease.

 

[Denis79]

After that shocking we did what was required.

 

[Chicharo]

Three points matter, hopefully we will be better after the break etc.
The usual stuff

 

[santeria13]

Wow betide anyone that entered the match day thread at 2-nil down, bunch of bloody drama queens on here

As nice it is to come back and win the game after going 2 goals down, is it not concerning how often we seem to completely turn off and leak in goals? We actually fought back this time, but this has exact scenario has happened a few times and we failed to respond.

 

[Grylte]

embarrasing,. we played like cowards against a 10 men team. city would have comfortably smashed this lot if they were in our shoes

Go support City then.
We won, and you lot are here whining and talking about City.

 

[Cloud7]

Can't wait to get Rasmus in

 

[Orange Tree]

No improvement from the last two games, in terms of how we play, but we didn't give up. Props to the team.
