Yep. There's no way he should be playing tonight.AWB is a complete garbage footballer. How on earth do so called professionals pay 50 million for someone who has zero technical quality on the ball. He has nothing to his foot work or skill. Plays like he has his ankles tied together.Lucky to be winning at half time. They have played very aggressively and we have found it hard to get any rhythm in our passing. Great goal by Rashford though. Need to stay solid defensively and see if we can grab another.Immense from De Gea, he's back
Way it goes. It’s not like we always have 3 goal margins
Clearly he touched the ball first. No penalty!
Dunno what people are talking about.Not convincing but we're a goal ahead. Said before the game that I don't care if we don't play well, as long as we win.
Hopefully we can kill the game in the second half.
How is Fred more direct than Bruno?This is a game where we just need to win at all costs, don't care how shit we are doing itI think we'll be a lot better in the second half. We took a while to settle down. Mctominay needed a few minutes to get going, but he adapted as the game went on. He wasn't providing a proper passing option in the beginning, forcing Pogba deep and give us a deep midfield. Add that to the fact that Fosu-Mensah has been horrible getting forward, then you have the ball stuck in defence.Was convinced that Rashford’s goal was gonna go all the way back for that Zaha pen shout.
This game looks made for Ighalo.
We will get another
Dalot's played LB before and is quite comfortable there - not sure he would be any worse than TFM who really looks lost out on that side.Fred is NOT a fullback.
But Fred could come in for McT, who’s been a bit of a bystander.TFM is a woeful playerSlim lead we need a second goal for sure.I see the major problem now. They waiting till all the CP players are in position so they can give themselves a challenge. Very bold game plan.
Martial for me, again.We are winning and that is all that matters. Don’t care how we do it, we just need the 3 points tonight.
Yes, it’s been a frustrating performance, particularly in the final 3rd but if that goal is the one that decides this game, then I’ll take it.
De Gea has been our best player so far. Great save from the free-kick right at the end of that half and he’s made 1-2 others too
Ighalo up top with Martial/Rashford off him?What's all the panic about TFM, he was ok.
I’ve been screaming for rotation. Wise guys on the cafe tell me it’s not necessary. This is the result
Where is this Fred at left back love in coming from ??
Also good tonight. One of a few doing the job.
How do you know thatI did my first "feck off, Bruno" for the first time so far and he still gets an assist later on.
Not happy with this half to be fair, even if we are one up.This game is also highlighting the problem with our depth. Take 1 player out of our starting 11 and the whole team take a massive hit. TFM failing to offer anything going forward which means Rashford is always coming deep to provide an outlay on our left side.
That’s what I’d doDe gea, Pogba, martial and linderlof pretty much the only players doing anything.
But well done to rash for the goal.
Probably not fit.It’s concerning there’s CL on the line with 3 games to go and we look very sluggish and complacent. If that doesn’t motivate the players nothing will.Another one please. I would not like to see us struggling to keep this result in last 20 minutes
The three points are all that matters tonight. Don't care how shit we play to achieve them, either.
Yes especially in away games. Learn to take the sting out of them by keeping the ball, play a bit more. The issue is we’re moving it so slowly, we then feel like we need to force it to progress and it suits counter attacking teams like palace.
hopefully with the 1-0 we can be patient and kill them side to side.We miss ShawQuality in the front three bailing us out so far. Very sloppy and disjointed - and there are so many infuriating little things, like being utterly unable to clear the ball before Greenwood gave away that freekick at the end.
Bruno always goes for the killer pass even when it's completely unrealistic. I love that he takes risks but a bit more brainpower wouldn't go amiss.
Would be lovely to not feck this up.Like it or loath it,we need an aerial threat.
Yes. There's a time for risk and then a time to be sensible.Don't really care if it was deserved or underserved. 3 pts at this moment will do good.- Status
