    Chong is on at half time. Instead of James. Maybe OGS is reading the thread

    That first half was very enjoyable. Fernandes having a huge stamp on this game. I feel like most of the food things we've done have come through him. 2 penalties in a row now. Hopefully we've finally found someone we can settle on for that.

    Happy for Ighalo to get his first goal. Was a very nice move for that goal. Fernandes, Mata and Ighalo all did well. Nice strike by McTominay for the 3rd too.

    My only complaint so far is, why the feck did it take so long to confirm that red card? Surely its clear as day upon first replay that its deliberate and denying a goalscoring chance? I was half expecting it to be overturned when it went on so long.

    They were apparently checking if mignolet was gonna get the ball or not.

    Bruno Fernandes is the player we were all hoping Paul Pogba would have become for us.

    Truth that Pogba fans do not want to hear. Also shows what a difference attitude can make. It's probably not that Bruno is more talented than Pogba but he's undoubtedly more useful for the team than Pogba ever was. Bruno makes the entire team better.

    1. McTominay is underrated in his passing. It was said that he merely only passed sideways and backwards; then it was said that his forward passing was ok; not only is he incredibly crisp in his passing, but he often sees the lesser obvious pass, is constantly moving the ball forward and has great weight of pass also.

    2. Fernandes is absolutely top class. He's a special talent. Always with the first time pass, superb first touch, no space so tight he can't maneuver in, and his vision is fantastic. That pass from the right when he pinged it into feet for Ighalo was exemplary of that. Something so simple, but so effective. It's the kind of pass Keane used to make often. Hard, low and to feet.

    1. He has been steadily improving his passing. In fact, he has had this passing game since pre-season, he just didn't have the confidence to display early in the league due to lack of experience of using it. The injury may have given him time to work in this part of his game so he can produce it in game situations. This is why I like Mctominay, players like him keep improving since they are determined.

    2. Yes
     
    I hope Pogba is watchong and thinking he wants to be a part of this.... with him in for Mata, Rashford for James we'd be even more amazing.
     
    Bruno is actually world class. I knew he was good but watching him for 90 mins these past few games confirms he's a game changer.

    Put Pogba in the team together with Bruno... if Bruno makes the entire team better than Bruno will make Pogba ever better.

    Almost like people were on to something when they said that Pogba will be even better when he plays with better players?

    He's right. Bruno is time times better already, and far more effective for us rather than being a moments player like Pogba. Scott and Fred are our engine up and down the pitch.

    Pogba has no more business to do with us. He can't replace Bruno, and we can't afford to put Fred or Scott on the bench for a passenger off the ball and hurts our engine.

    Who actually cares, though? Why can't we enjoy our game without mentioning Pogba for once? Jesus! Then the same people moan when he's always in the spotlight.

    What's the problem in some discussing Pogba ? And why does that has to mean these guys aren't enjoying the game ? You know you can enjoy the game and talk about something else at the same time.
     
    This will not be good for James and his confidence.
     
    Viva Ighalo
    Viva Ighalo
    If he starts to cough
    We're all fecking off
    Viva Ighalo

    I've got no idea if that's what they're singing. But it's what I'd come up with.
     
    Chong must be a worldie in training, never seen the fuss about him in the first team, tbh.
