Whilst we have been far from good this half our response since going behind has been very good. Recently we’d have struggled to win the game, never mind score 3 in 20 minutes.

De Gea is definitely more at fault for the goal, but you do hate to see your CB get megged inside the box.

Lovely performance so far, which players should we rest at 60 minutes? Bruno, Matic, Martial?

Greenwood, Matic, Bruno, Maguire and 1 more

The lack of patterns of play in attack is infinitely frustrating. It's really something we need to focus on if we want to become a team that challenges the very best.

Agree with that. We need to look at how City pass and move as a team in the final third. Always one player on the move into empty space.
Individual skills take us only to a certain level.

Need to keep going and just out score these plucky fecks more in the 2nd half. Damn game raisers. If Bournemouth played half as well today throughout the year, they wouldn't be in relegation.

Just feck these plonkers even more in the 2nd forty-five.

Should be straightforward now, give it 10-25 minutes and hopefully make changes such as:

Matic > Fred
Bruno > McTominay
Rashford/Greenwood > James
Shaw > Williams
Martial > Ighalo

What a half. Feels so good to know that a defensive error won't cost us the full game!

Well played to the forwards. Greenwood is really something special. It just looked like a goal the moment he got the ball. His ceiling really could be very very high! So impressive.

Martial proving his critics wrong.

The critics were about his application and attitude never his talent.
everyone says he should be scoring 20+ every season ...he’s that good

The_Midfielder · Jul 4, 2020

Mason has the knack of scoring the important first goal doesn't he.. scored last game and now today...

Did you see Young's goal the other day? He's still got it...

Haha, got what?

Shimo · Jul 4, 2020

Too lazy to read back at the comments but, what's the general feeling - DDG was culpable for the goal? Not for me, it was a good finish and he was just not able to close enough of the gap.

Good thing though is that I don't think anyone had much doubt we'd get back into it, the team or supporters. Mason's left is just wow and that finish and smile by Martial !

Nice to come back from a goal down. Just need to see this through now.

If you look at the replay, he spoke to him just before

Wow. What a player. Could have had 1 assist and 1 goal in one half

Adam Smith poor for all three goals.

That was Bournemouth’s problem, really. Bunch of players you couldn’t pick out of a lineup like him has 142 PL games. You end up in that awkward position where unwavering loyalty to players who got you to this level but aren’t good enough for this level are still ones starting.

OverratedOpinion · Jul 4, 2020

When was the last time we had 2 players get 20 goals? I feel like Berbatov and Chicharito did one season.

Suv666 · Jul 4, 2020

Insane goal. After a long time I'm loving the way we play. How good is Bruno. Talk about an impact signing.

Rafaeldagold · Jul 4, 2020

Do the majority really think we’ve played well? Previous performances yes but today..we’ve been sloppy, not solid at all. Positives are greenwood & Bruno who look great, but let’s not say this has been brilliant so far when it clearly hasn’t

Schmeichel=God · Jul 4, 2020

That half could be an exceptionally big moment for this team.

As many pointed out we routinely stumble at junctures such as today, but that turnaround and what it will do for the collective mindset could just sow seeds of resilience in to this team.

Bruno should be the captain, over Maguire, in a perfect world. The guy is a born leader.

Hope this goal helps Rashy get the confidence he needs. Class act from Bruno (even if I was terrified Rashy would miss it)

Maguire has proved an excellent captain so far. The team is playing very well under his captaincy, and he also does a very good job as England captain.

Imagine if we had got him for the start of the season.

Catt · Jul 4, 2020

Bailly in for Lindeløf

RedDevilRoshi · Jul 4, 2020

Got to give credit as well to Ole and the team. This is the sort of game not that long ago, as soon as we went 1-0 down, we would have either gone on and lost this game or grabbed a very late equaliser to draw.

We’ve hit 3 last them in one half.

Lindelof injured?

The more I see, Lindelof is the one to keep and upgrade Maguire. He shouldn't be even on the team let alone be the captain.

As i am saying whole season. Maguire is not half good as Lindelof is.
We uograded Smalling with 80mil defender who is on par with him. Business of the century

Annihilate Now! · Jul 4, 2020

Must be a change to deal with their pace

Walters_19_MuFc · Jul 4, 2020

Lindelof replaced by Bailly. Can only imagine he picked up an injury.

Isotope · Jul 4, 2020

That rocket goal!.. Brrrrr brrrr..

ivaldo · Jul 4, 2020

Sensible sub. Lindelof has played well. Bournemouth are trying to use Kings pace down our right side. Bailly can match him.

Sign of a good team, winning despite playing average

How it doesn't matter? Every time he stopped attacker. Blocked shot or covered space which allowed our defenders to settle in defence.
Meanwhile Maguire had only one situation like that and fecked it up.

Yes he's likely going to cover it and he can cover it a majority of the time as well but it only takes one mistake from that point before you get into a really dangerous situation.

I won't defend Maguire, it's simply a tactic that the opposition have had some success with and we should counter it.

feck ups at the back happen and DeGea will probably pull off something magnificent this half. It's always been about the goals, score more, no problem.

Definitely, their defence is full of players like him.

Shut up ffs. If he gets 2 assists by half time I couldn't give a shit if he doesn't complete another pass.

I don't care either and don't mind him taking risks but there's something weird about our passing today maybe due to the heavy rain.
