I predicted 3-1 win for us.
Hope we score 3 more though and it is 6-1.The best part about this half has been that we are playing as a team. Everyone is on sync. It’s been lovely.What a brilliant, brilliant first half. Best half of football we've seen in ages. And that's not an exaggeration in the slightest. Brilliant stuff. Even the penalty they had was an awful decision and shouldn't have been a pen. Keep it up. Attacking with intent, movement off the ball, quick passing, nobody sitting on the ball and waiting an age to pass it, and good pressing to win the ball back quickly.
I fecking hate Mourinho so much, leads us to believe that these players just aren't capable of playing quickly or press highly. Yeah fecking right. Wasted the last 2.5 years of our lives making us sit through that trash style of play. Never make a mistake like him again.
Except for the one to Martial for our third goal.
Rashford and Martial should start every game, so realistically only RF is up for grabs. Rashford and Martial arent as effective from the right.very good. Just hope we dont collapse like we did with van gaal against leicster.Lingard unfortunate at times with the final ball.
Not sure what some think is wrong with this Pogba performance though, solid so far.I actually yelled with elation when that third goal went in. This is mental football!!Oh my. I just enjoyed half a game of football!
Long may this continue...I am now interested to see what Ole tells them to do in the second half. Polar opposite of Jose I would have thought.Very good half. We're so much better to watch when we're positive and attacking rather than conservative and playing to contain.
Yep.Lingard's movement has been great, he's been everywhere. Shame about some of the execution of his ideas. If he managed to get that stuff sorted he would be a lot better.
Yeah but even if he did use his hand, there’s just certain things that happen in the box that in no way prevent a goalscoring opportunity but you still get a PK for them.Why'd you have to go and make things so complicated?
I see the way Mou's acting like we're some midtable shite's got me frustrated.
But United's like this you, attack and you pass and you shoot and you score and you turn it into wins, and promise me Ole please, we're never gonna see you change. Oleee.Really good first half of football from United. We look a totally different team. So many balls pass forwarded into our forwards feet, and triangles with one touch football. While Cardiff have not been the best, this change in approach is very welcomedThis is surreal - we've got our team back.Feels wonderful seeing the team playing on the front foot once again and the confidence is radiating from our players as a result.
That's how Manchester United Football Club should always beIn a poor mourinho team lingard was seen as a fairly decent player, and now in that great first half he's been the clear weak link. I think he's best used as an impact sub. Brilliant first half in any case.Really missing the hoof balls options of Lukaku and Fellaini today. Quick, fluid front 3 and a midfield trying to support them quickly, keeping the ball on the ground, full backs releasing early.
Only Cardiff but it feels like Utd.
Great minds mate
can't wait for the second halfSO much better. I haven’t seen us score a goal like that 3rd for so so long!
Even Matic is actually playing good, I can’t believe this witchcraft.
I know it’s probably just the honeymoon period but my god is it nice to see some proper 1 touch footy.Is there a party going in Norway?didnt look at the caf once through the first half, not done that in ages.I hope people don't forget the work Mike Phelan does. Moyes was a complete twat to get rid of himGreat first half.
Let's score some moreGreat first half. Lingard really sticks out in that front line. At his best, he shouldn’t be playing in a team’s most forward line anyway, he’s not a front 3 player.
I would love to see Sanchez in a set up like this.
Enjoying watching united for the first time in ages
That was a stupid question.
It felt like we haven't forever. In the end Jose's aura was such that it felt like darkness everywhere.
That's harsh on Lingard, though. I mean 95% of our attacking play originates from the left flank, Jesse is basically not getting the service.
His work rate remains high regardless.
You can see how the ref feels it's a handball because he clearly didn't see it. It's not stupid. Are players not supposed to use parts of their body that are legal to use now? No. It's an awful call and nothing else. Rashford did nothing wrong what so ever.
Lingard’s constant running and movement is causing Cardiff shit loads of problems.
He’s dragging their defenders all over the place and opening up space for other united players to exploit.Can you imagine we put Jadon Sancho in that side and a few WC defenders?What a dramatic difference in the fluidity of play, passing and movement. It’s important not to get carried away; but if Ole Can have us produce the best 45 minutes of football in the last 3 years after being at the club for 3 days, what sort of damnjng indictment is that of Mourinho.
I’m so happy. There’ll be some bumps but it’s fun again and we look a threat.
He had a rusty opening 20 minutes but the last 25 minutes he's been great.Good quick positive football and Ole and Phelan sat on the bench. It all feels much more Manchester United
Same. I expect there was some whinging mind, even with that performance!
I’d almost forgotten what it felt like to score one like that. Joy to watchWhat on earth do our players think they’re doing playing positive, attacking football? Not having it. Too much fun being had.This has been rather pleasing...- Status
