Its zero do with Ronaldo. Its not like cavani is lighting it up as his replacement. We are moving the ball quicker and finding team mates behind our front man

Absolutely novel concept by Ralf
It could be all of them, or none of them. Either way I don't think any of them should be automatically plugged back in the side.Rashford...
Class run from GreenwoodWas a pen that.Greenwood’s growing into an elite carrier. Ball retention is top tier.Much better shape than the cup game, Bruno starting deeper giving us a numbers match. Elanga's workrate and willingness to run forward and back has been so valuable so far, shocking that we got to the point where this is such a change to the usual but there you go.We are infinitely more effective as a team when playing with width. Today is evidence of that.
You don't think that has anything to do with no Rashford, Shaw, maguire, etc? Just Ronaldo?
We should save him for CL and the occasional PL game.Not that im complaining but has AWB been officially dropped?Looking good so far, everyone seems at it and we aren't carrying anyone.What is this I'm watching? They're passing the ball to each other. What a good idea!WHAT A RUN MASONLovely shoulder drop and run from Mason
Ill.Elanga looks good. It’s like nobody has given him the poisoned chalice yet.We look half decent ffs. I can't believe it
Yes. Very much so. Better organised with players actually looking like they understand what they are supposed to be doing.
I want him on the bench as cover for the fullbacks.Matic plays like he literally has no right foot.We're a hell of a lot more fluid up front.
He's ill according to Rangnick.
The Ragnick effect took timeElanga very direct. I’m really liking this so far. Just bag anotherI’m loving this guys
Think they said he is "ill".Sleeping thereShock horror. No Rashford and the team plays well.Fred is so badLeast we have a decent 20 minutes against Villa to point to along with the half hour against Palace
Elanga and Telles are doing really well down the left.Elanga looking decent for a young kid. Worrying that we have to start him, but enjoying watching him so far.
We are also without the dreaded McFred combo. To attribute this good start to Ronaldo’s absence is simplistic and agenda driven.Who is the ref? The name doesn't ring a bell, any matches I should remember?Nobody played to the whistle!Why is the Villa crowd so pissed off ?
Look at him back there, making the extra effort to stop the cross from Cash. we have not had that recently, making Utd so easy to play against.Take note rashford.Clear pen. Dumb ref.- Status
