Playing well but Burnley very poor. Good movement from our front 3. Surprised they're not attacking Williams more. He's been given plenty of space which he's using well. MOTM for me at the minute.
1, I'm already high..
2. Exactly why I don't want to start celebrating before it's over, this team scares me..Pereira’s best display in a United shirt?It's been us only for this half.
All they have is high balls.
True. Ole will say this is why we press, and he’s right.
In a way. It’s just a bit concerning we didn’t look remotely like scoring all game until then, but I’d be a hypocrite to say I wanted us to win tonight by playing good football. I just wanted 3 points, don’t care how it comes.
True
Pereira forced him in to a mistake. When City do this they’re praised for having a high press. When we do it everyone can’t state enough about how we’ve been gifted a goal due to an individual error.Cause he's watching from Madrid
Sharp TV.... No wonder he wants to leave, we need to give this fella a payrise!Young's passing improved as the half went on, started to find Pereira in those half spaces. Pereira and Fred's touch under pressure is the key to us playing out against these cnuts
Fred at the joint lowest just shows how awful this rating is.
Not playing.We have been scoring from a lot of forced errors but that has also been the liverpool blueprint in games they win 1-0. Its just how it is.Think about it, Williams who is clearly right footed crosses better with his left than Luke bloody Shaw
No they don't. In order to play disgusting football, you first have to play football...which Burnley don't do
He started adding more quality to quantity
His weakness is his attitude not any deficiency in ability. He has it all: skill, strength, can head, 2 good feet.
His head is his problem sometimes.
It's literally all they know how to do.Williams Rashford Martial James
Matic Fred Pereira
Maguire Lindelof Young
De GeaGood half from United.
Have looked completely assured at the back.
Burnley the biggest shit houses in the league.
I hope we don’t mess around with this lead and just get the game won early in the second half
2-0 and it will be absolutely game overWe are desperate for some cutting edge, thankfully we’ve made the most of Burnley errors.
We’re in total control, but without the chances or goals to show for it, which is the normal story really.Some of the lads that we slag off most often (myself included) are standing up today.
Lindelof has been great in the air.
Young has played the ball into midfield so so well.
And Pereira has been a nightmare to play against with his pressing.
Love how Williams plays, tough away game at Burnley and he stands up every time. Got Bardsley on toast everytime he goes at him as well. Think he could be a red card waiting to happen.Nice end to the half there. Very tidy pass by James and Finish by Martial. Nice stuff there. Overall its been okay. We've been comfortable but not very threatening before that. I know there was another Martial shot cleared off the line though. Burnley have offered nothing but we need to go out and get a second goal to be truly comfortableGlad Paul is not out there. These guys are brutal and have full license from Mike Dean unless a decapitation happens, them he'll get the other card out, probably.
I would say two goals vs Newcastle were gifts. That wasn’t.
I think its mainly because its Andreas. If it had been a more popular player those saying it was a gifted goal would be running out of superlatives for the player closing down and supplying such a quality pass
Someone who wants to score goals from tap ins.
So Burnley are just disgusting.No they don't. In order to play disgusting football, you first have to play football...which Burnley don't do
Yep, being shown up hereCome on reds, fecking at theseWe are finally getting some luck with oppo mistakes (and capitalizing!) now they need to be careful on the set piecesMatic and Fred controlling midfield. Matic is still a class act on his day (dont tell the haters) And he has looked very composed On the ball.Ok, now waiting for Daddy to come for James in the second half.Foul after foul after foul after...
Fecking hate Burnley. Shit club
He is but has done feck all. Just like the rest of his thuggish teammates
Wonder why they call Pereira Tiki Taka Legend?Cause he's watching from Madrid
They are changing the keeper? Maybe Rashford wants to remember some memories on when he was scoring against Hart at the Etihad?
Andreas is the tiki taka legend at the club.. what?Cause he's watching from Madrid
And pogba can do better than a Sharp tv... unless we still have some sponsorship deal and they provide tvs for our players.
He's a DM who hasnt won the ball and hasnt been on the ball a lot. He's also been beaten by attackers. Aesthetically pleasing fairly simple passes arent going to be big point scorers, even if they impress you - unless he makes 100 or more like last gameWas expecting way more from Burnley, for some reason
It's mainly trust. He's felt the trust from Ole since day 1, like LVG. Under Mourinho, there was zero trust, to begin with, if ever.Really nice assist and Martial, despite his flaws when it comes to movement, is a fantastic finisher one on one.
Burnley are just fecking awful to watch, brutal football.- Status
