Really good half. Just the goal missing. Hopefully it comes early in the second.

I noticed Matic does that any new midfielders, he is a prick like that.
Poor or Everton got on top for a bit?
Every team you play will have a period where they put you under pressure.First 30 minutes it was pretty much one sided game from us. Criminal we didn't score. Last 15 minutes it was mostly an even game.
Anything can happen in second half. Let's hope we score our next chance.
I thought Class, is class...
Brilliant that we can make so many squad changes and still have a first half like that, away at Everton of all places.
Just not back-of-the-net placesWell we started well, unlike most games this year. We seemed to lose our intensity and they grew into it, which can happen. I can't quite put my finger on why our finishing is lacking that clinical edge (even scoring six against Leeds flattered them to be honest). I hope we start creating and scoring again in the second half, maybe Rashy needs to come off the bench and show them how it's done like he did v RBL at home.Played well.
Should be aheadEverton could well come out a different side in the second half, took them 30 mins to get going, need to be back at it from the offA first half with two halfs. We should have been up 1 or 2 in the first 25 min.
Pogba needs to realise he needs to move his body if someone makes a bad pass instead of throwing a fit.
Klass (jan-Huntelaar) is classI thought Class, is class...
A missed opportunity is the best way to describe that half. We absolutely dominated them in the first 20 minutes, playing some great stuff but we just could not finish it. It was almost unbelievable at times. Of course that was never going to last and it just kind of died out, and then we gave them a period of dominance and I was convinced it would cost us.
We need to get back to that way we were at the start of the game.
Yeah well I’ve learnt to accept that comes with him. Been slaughtered on here before for bringing it up.Also his usual sloppiness combined with breakneck running back to salvage the situation
Everton are no mugs, so were always going to have a spell. Dominant performance so far. Plenty of options on the bench as well, to come in and win the game once players start to get leggy. Feeling confident United will win this.Our build up play has been impressive but unfortunately our finishing less soEnjoyable game. Hopefully we can continue playing well and get a couple of goals.Everton seem very slow off the ball so far, almost surprised at times. There is no clear game plan but we've had some decent chances. Good half.
I’m not surprised.1 minute Mina wasted about 3 refusing to walk off the field.
it doesn’t really matter because we have another 45mins. However, it really grips my shit - happens in almost every match, do they just ignore it in the first half. Against Leeds, I think there was 3 mins - yet 5 goals, a disallowed goal, and I’m sure other things as well.
He's kept it tight back there and got forward well to support. Hasn't been suicidalWe really should be ahead, played some really nice stuff. Hopefully we can score a few 2nd half, just hope it’s not going to be one of those games where we play well but can’t score and then they nick one late on.
He owes him money
Ah! We still signing him?After a really good, fast start, our game has slowed to a crawl again. If we can pick it up again we should be winning this.If only Bruno could have slipped Cavani through in the first minute after that great Greenwood pressing. Don't think he was warmed up yet Had some brilliant crosses though
On my stream yes, along with Boban and BatistutaSo many good good chances. Feels like one of those. Someone quick, create a "49 chances" thread stat!Dominated the opening 35 minutes and really should have scored during that period of dominance. Last 10 minutes of the half has been sloppy and Everton are growing in confidence.
And when Matic found him on the edge of the box he instantly played a pass to a defender 30 yards backwards. Matic might as well keep it.Just started watching before HT.. Oh the chances we had.Is Fred on the bench?
Yep, the only time I ever see any more than 2 minutes added on is if there is a really bad injury like Jimenez's, it's a pisstake.
Perhaps it was the one touch lay offs followed by moving into space to receive the ball again?Dominated the midfield first half but Everton did grow into it towards the end of the half so we need to keep the effort levels up. Would like to see a bit more from VDB, although not east out wide.Good half so far. A draw here isn't a bad result if we can't find our scoring boots.Gary Neville is so ,so overly critical of us.
People forget that they're on a good run too and as you say, are no mugs. They have a bloody good side out- Status
