First time in around 6 years I've seen Rooney get somebody booked having run past them.

Ibra wants to play at a higher pace than this team is accustomed to playing

Even with Pogba coming in, we still need a box-to-box style CM for me so we can release Pogba forward in his best position. Maybe someone like Matuidi.

I'd argue box to box is his best position. It makes far better use of his complete skillset.

Rooney and Ibra have been awful

Can add Carrick and Martial to the list also.

Carrick and Martial have been invisible so far.

True that, although I think this is more of a game for a Fellaini type player not smooth Carrick, think he just needs to protect the back 4 doesn't need to boss the midfield.

Martial on the other hand needs to do his run ins on the wings and start linking play with Zlatan.

Nice little bit of raciscm from the commentator branding fellaini's hair ridiculous and silly because he's dyed it. If his hair was straight there would be no problem.

Your opinion is needed here...

Id argue that Pogba's best position is the old 'just go wherever the hell you want and try to make a big play' role with Carrick and Schneiderlin holding down cm. Schneiderlin probably in more of a box to box role

Zlatan-Rooney might be worse than van Persie-Rooney.

I really have no idea how players have twitter etc. If they're constantly subjected to much of the comments in here (admittedly I'm sure I've been guilty of it in the past), their self-esteem must be shot.

Jones had an account for about 3 days. I think Fletcher may have as well before closing it.

El Zoido · Aug 7, 2016

Any chance we'll get the Pogba deal finished in time to get him on at half time?

pseudo_canadian · Aug 7, 2016

Fellaini is a donkey.

Get a life mate, seriously what are you on about? You conveniently ignored the bit where the commentator also made a comment about how ridiculous his own hair was when he was playing. No racism involved at all.

Really? Mentioning hair colour is racist?

Electriceye · Aug 7, 2016

Very LVGish performance

Still early days though.

OutOfTowner · Aug 7, 2016

Good defending by Shaw.

SirAnderson · Aug 7, 2016

Geez Rooney can't do a counter anymore, it's like he doesn't know how to.

DevilRed · Aug 7, 2016

Martial looks a bit off the pace. Hopefully will get into the game a bit more in the second half.

danny simpson has a yellow card so theoretically Martial could have a field day against him.

Pretty sure that's not the case.

Wonder if we'll see any half time changes.

His hair was always daft. Now that he has tried to be David Beckham it looks even more daft.

That is racism, to call someone's NATURAL hair daft.

We still very much resemble a LVG team.

Is he? They allow animals to play these days?

Hows the Pogba chants coming along?

Rooney.

Not a bad half. Made a few chances and a lovely goal from Lingard.

Take it elsewhere.

ha_rooney · Aug 7, 2016

Decent half. Still slow in possession but nice to seem some more direct passes.

Bailly impressive. Rooney shit. Mata/Micki for Rooney at HT please.

SwansonsTache · Aug 7, 2016

If I see Rooney giving away the ball once more I might die of self-implosion.

carlosp · Aug 7, 2016

HT 1-0

Beautiful goal by Jesse is the difference.

Mr Pigeon · Aug 7, 2016

Complete the following sentence.

**** lost the ball again.

Eddy_JukeZ · Aug 7, 2016

Entire front 4 bar Lingard have been poor.

Fellaini has been wasteful with the ball, but he's been key in recovering the ball for us and he's negated Okazaki completely.

Hardly surprising.

Shaw's been our best player so far, followed by Bailly and Valencia.
