Great first half!
Finally some football. Gotta hold my hands up and admit maybe it's the tactics after all

It's also refershing to see Matic move the ball a lot faster and forward.Don’t tell me Sanchez wouldn’t look vicious in the system and way we’re playing today80% possession in the first half. Unheard of.Wayne just confirming that when Jose went one up he would try to hold on to the lead. CAn't wait for us to totally get rid of that kind of mentality.Wonder how many long balls we've played today.Doesn’t sound like Rooney has any real ties or affection for Mourinho. He’s not taking digs, but he’s being very matter of fact in his comments.Just goes to show how much of an issue Mourinho was. Solksjaer won’t be implementing some amazing game plan already, but the players are playing out of their skin for him - they didn’t want to for Mourinho. He’s a trouble maker and an egotistical cnut that pulls his own players down in the media to make himself look better. So so glad he’s gone.
Against Midtjylland under Van Gaal. In the league - against West Brom in 2013.
Nobody wants to play Jose football lets be honest.Anybody get the impression that Wayne doesn't like Jose.
Away from home? November last year.
Yeah a second one like Herrera, preferably someone who is a tad bit smarter in his positioning, Kanté would be perfect. It's currently not a problem going forward but defensively it's causing us trouble time and time again.it was close. But I can see why it was pen.
we are playing well.
smooth attacking football.
3-1 HT.
Bayer Leverkusen away in the meaningless CL group game (6th game when the group was done) under Moyes is the only time since Sir Alex retired.
Probably more than under Mou. That’s direct, attacking football for you.
Leverkusen game under Moyes.
Was it the West Brom draw? Can't remember one under Moyes or LVGIf Oles initial task was to put smiles on faces I'd consider that job done so far.
Happy happy happy.
He does look better. Maybe it is enjoying his football so keeping himself focused. yes
and btw, he looks so skiny, better than ever at United
When there is no Jose to tell, or hint at, the truth about you mean?
They want the best for the club, they have high standards, we should have high standards and not accept the self serving balls that Jose served up to protect himself. We have better players than most wanted to admit under him.
I would like to watch Rooney on BT to see what he has to say but been watching my current stream all day. Been good.Everyone has been good tbh. Matic still frustrates me to no end though.Wayne slyly sticking the boot in on Maureen.
What’d he say?Give Ole the job permanently. Use the £40m for Poch on a player.It may only be Cardiff, but when you compare how we played earlier against Huddersfield and Newcastle, there's a comparable difference.I know Herreras goal took a deflection but under Mourinho he would not have received that pass, been in that position or taken that shot.We haven’t needed 20 shots to score one goal. Much much better.
I’m enjoying this.
He needs to be retained under new management as well.
Too coldVery rare for the mangers after SAF to celebrate goals properly. So good to see the whole bench up and going bonkers.. everyone! They seem to feeling some o this "freedom". To be honest, hte one thing I didn't like about Jose was he didn't trust our defence. He made that obvious and that affected them badly. He then trusted them even less. Real United is.. they score one, we'll score 2 or threeLet's setttle this. Is the shoulder part of the hand in football or not ? I always get confused
Can't wait for that. Alexis, Martial, Rashford.If Jose was here he'd be getting Fellaini ready to consolidate the three points.can somebody summarise what rooney is saying. We've got Scholesy on our and he's doing his usual mumbling with little substance
Hasn’t been as bad as other games though - although that may have to do with Cardiff being a non-entity in attack.
We scored 5 against Bayer Leverkusen under MoyesI think that first half performance was the best Christmas present I could have hoped for. Hey it may not last and be new manager syndrome but god damn it's good to see us play the United way again.- Status
