Leads the team in chances created and is 3rd in the PL overall this season but you don't like his decisions? Thank God you are not picking the team.

Yup, don't need him to be the best in chances created. I don't think he is a positive leader, that comes before any number to me.

Honestly amazed at the depth of Portuguese lip reading talent here tonight.
We really are the most intelligent fans in world football

Right, it makes far more sense for Antony to insult him in Spanish despite them both being native Portuguese speakers

mu4c_20le · Jan 18, 2023

So Wout doing what prime Lingard did with his intelligent movement

AWB been an absolute beast. Man of the first half.
wout has had a few nice touches but looks a little of the pace to me.

I expect he’ll need a few weeks to get up to the pace and learn the way we play.

Would be pretty fecking crazy if he wasn't. Look at the role he plays.

Get Pellistri on for Antony in the 2nd half

Yeah, he's doing nothing of note once again. Won't happen but should.

The half time entertainment, lovely!

It's the same thing anyways. Both languages are similar. Don't know what's your point.

I don't like Bruno's attitude at all. I think United won't get much success as long as he is the captain, and besides that, I don't like his game. He has quality, but most of the time I don't like the decisions he takes. And I'm saying this even if he's scored.

But then again, his attitude of talking to teamnates while making gestures with the arms/hands is just stupid. If he was playing during Keane era, he would've got tought a lesson at the dressing room. You just don't do that. Not to mention if you're the captain.

We are in the semi-final of the league Cup. Peacefully through to the 4th round of the FA Cup, into the knock out rounds of the Europa League and stand to go second in the league if this result stays as it is. All of this has been under Bruno's captaincy. What are you talking about.

Wal2Fra · Jan 18, 2023

Felt like Antony put in a decent shift there. He looked to run past his man a bit more, beating him on the outside, something we have been asking for. Also chased the ball well, which led to a decent chance with the lob.

Comfortable 1st half, controlling the ball and the tempo buy can easily see we can step up if required.

More of the same 2nd half!

Prodigy24 · Jan 18, 2023

Ohh Robin van Persie!

Remember that Neville analysis of Wayne Rooney's shit game in the derby when we won 4-2 and he called it a "silent domination"

Weghorsts performance has been a reeled in version of that description only correct.

Enjoyable first half. Thankfully Ten Hag decided to pick his strongest team, because Palace really are hard to break down.

Weghorst I think links up really well with the others. He holds up the ball quite well. Unlucky with the header.

Rashford looks wasteful, but it's Rashford: he can score goals out of nowhere, so keep him on.
Wan Bissaka looks fantastic. Brilliant.
Antony and Shaw look lively.

They shouldn't be that hard to break down. Their defence is terrible and we're winning the CM battle hands down. We just need a little more composure and we'll win this easily.

I quite like Weghorst so far. Not sure what people are missing, but they're obviously missing how often he closes down defenders and how that's contributed greatly to Palace recycling the ball back to us.

He’s doing great considering he’s been thrown straight in. He’s going to be a real asset!

Laurencio · Jan 18, 2023

I want two more goals

Any one mention Erikson out sprinting Zaha! What a moment.

I was sure he would make a free kick in that situation and get a yellow card. Making relatively many free kicks is a new side of Eriksen since he joined United. But of course he has also been given a more defensive role.

Poborsky's hair · Jan 18, 2023

WW has been very good this half , he grew into the game and showed everyone what a decent strong midfielder can do to our play. Pressing relentlessly and being very good at hold up play is sometimes enough to bring others into play and give us enough opportunities. Very good headed attempt as well. Would be great if he could score and hit the ground running.

Rashford must be carrying an injury, I am just not seeing a lot of movement from him.

Agreed. He must have received it just before halftime against City. That moment when he was unhappy and went off for treatment for a few minutes.

I'd far rather Bruno as Captain than meek Harry

SirAnderson · Jan 18, 2023

Let's go for the jugular now, get 2 goals before by 65 mins and make subs off 4 of main players. Rashford sooner preferable.

krazyrobus · Jan 18, 2023

Antony and Wan have picked up decent understanding

kidbob · Jan 18, 2023

Expecting an intense first 15 minutes from Palace here. Hopefully we can keep them out and score another ourselves early.

Yeah, extremely happy with his contribution so far this season.

IFC 1905 · Jan 18, 2023

Lisandro being too passive.

mav_9me · Jan 18, 2023

Our RW is cursed. Sigh

Member 58925 · Jan 18, 2023

Our goal came as a result of Rashford making a quick decision as opposed to holding up the ball and eventually dribbling into a dead end. Need more quick decisions

daveskimufc · Jan 18, 2023

Worried about casemiro's yellow card count now, can't afford him to miss arsenal

zaafi · Jan 18, 2023

Michael Olise would be cheaper than Antony, and is a better player.

Werghorst needs to score a triple twisted bicycle kick so some folk on here will think he's had a good game.

Yeah but it's far more important that a striker makes the right runs even if he doesn't get involved than a midfielder! You need your midfielders involved

Making a move to create space for another player in and around the box is important doesn't matter who does it really.

SirAnderson · Jan 18, 2023

Is Casemiro the one that's 1 yellow away from a suspension, need to make sure all that voodoo from he's Real Madrid days are working overtime tonight.

In the Keane era, it was Keane bollocking his team mates and demanding better. All the time. Relentlessly.

I can understand some saying that he flags a little in the second half of games, but we give him so much game time that I feel that this is to be expected. He's been nothing other than a complete and utter success for our team, imo. Him and Casemiro in midfield has completely changed us. We're a far superior team.

Glorio · Jan 18, 2023

We don't want to break Rashford if he's not 100% please
