Exactly. In that position it’s impossible to tell when the snap shot is going to be taken, all you can do is shepherd the attacker and try to block, it’s a good finish.AWB clearly instructed to go forward far more and he’s been fairly decent in that regard.Burnley have been awful and Maguire has still managed to look out of his depth.
Very lucky not to concede a penalty and practically opened the space up for Lennon to easily roll in his first goal in more than three years.
Bailly was dire for their goal too, thankfully others have been much sharper.
We look a different team with Cavani up front or no Rashford jogging in straight lines and giving it away constantly.
Shaw has been excellent, he seems to have responded well to Telles getting a few games.We’ve been shit at corners since Beckham left
I think Scott can be genuinely good if he is afforded the freedom to go forward. He looks shite if he is supposed to play the holding midfielder because his ability to anticipate passes and runs, as well as his positioning, isn't really great. But these runs he has made today, arriving late to the edge of the box, he is good at that I feel.
Please, he has played well today, no doubt about it. But people here talking like he is the answer to our midfield problems is plain nonsense. We are fighting for top 4 because of a midfield containing mctominay.
I think it’s more Bruno’s absence. Allows him to play more box to box which is his strength and probably why Matic is playing as he’ll sit more of the 2.Far less moaning from the players so far tonight without Bruno and Rashford.
This isn't over though. We aren't in control at all.It's a relief to see us holding a strong position for a change but not really seeing any difference to the football played under Solskjaer. Will celebrate the 3 points (if we get them) but don't see anything to be excited about.
I agree. The lack of capitalization at the beginning of a new sentence really grates on me.Sancho was robbed.
Is that a known-thing/phrase? Never heard of it before!McCoist sounded strangely impressed that right footed Ronaldo put his goal in with his...right foot.
Don’t think he can come tight, he needs to keep him in a box looking for cover or he is in danger of giving away a pen and a red if he comes forward and mistimes it.
Let’s be honest, you want Lennon shooting from there
Edit anybody watching Bein Sports? This presenter blatantly hates United or his banter is shite.Shaw has made such a huge difference. He is leagues better than Telles. Especially for our ball progression.
Fukking absurd. The ball barely grazed Meme’s boot.
Pogba had it stripped don’t he? Or maybe that was vice captain under Mou.
I thought I saw sancho and Greenwood more out wide this game. scot went more forward with matic sitting back. Felt more like a 442 this time around. Mason and Sancho switched places a bit towards the end for a whileI hope people note the improvement with AWB and Shaw on the pitch.
Don't they drop their captain pretty much every season? I'm pretty sure Xhaka was their captain before him.Does seem overly harsh for that goal to be taken away from Sancho.
Yet Fred has bagged two goals and an assist under Rangknick while looking good as well in advanced positions
Maybe it has to be one or the other not both.
Dare I say it, reminds me of Roy Keane and those driving runs he used to make.
Can't assist an OG either, so not the stats will show nothingBest I've seen McTominay play since that Leeds game, and Shaw is about 10 times the player Telles is.
He plays 2 to 3 good games a season. Slow down on the superlatives. The criticism doesn't come out of nowhereStill can't believe that they gave Mee the OG, he barely got a touch on it, if at all, I've seen the 2nd angle 3 times now and can't see where he got the touch?!Have to be careful. Get the next goal and its ok. Could be nervy if Burnley get the next goal though.
Yep. He's a shoe in to come back in as the starter.
The other side is more up for grabs still.
There was a period where Vidic was scoring from then regularly enough.
Best comment on red cafe ever
Rooney and RVP were good for a seasonHenry at half time.... " how many goals has he scored now, 2,000,000?"
It's very very clear that it wasn't going anywhere near the goal until Mee's touched diverted it in.McT is like Pogba... crap crap crap crap and then absolutely out of this world brilliant once in a while- Status
