    Mourinho is not happy
    Mourinho still doesn’t seem impressed on the touchline. He just spread his arms in disbelief after United conceded possession and now he’s furious that Lukaku opted for a fancy flick just outside the area. Lingard is still warming up.
    I bet there's a good vibe in the Moyes household now though.
     
    Glad that Mourinho is not happy on the sidelines. We didn't anything after the first goal, only invited them back to the game. Been decent after the second goal, but we have to dominate this game and create even more chances and not be complacent.
     
    I thought we were a bit sloppy after the first goal and let them get settled, good that we got a second before half time.
     
    You're right. Feck the results your entertainment should come first.
    Didnt say anything about entertainment either. it's called opening your eyes and seeing the bigger picture, not just staring at stats. We've had three games of Fellaini-Matic against pretty shite sides and our control of the midfield hasn't been great because Fellaini is dog wank positionally and when Matic presses or drops deep, unlike Herrera or Pogba, Fellaini doesn't position himself well enough to do anything a midfielder is supposed to do. Cant just ignore that because he scored a header, when we play against better sides we'll be punished for it.
     
    Missing Pogba's creativity. He could really open things up. Need to get Mhki into it more.

    Palace just came for a draw, so that we have opened them up is good.

    Tried a few long passes over the top which is futile given how wet it is and the ball just skids of the surface. I think if it was not raining, we would have more.

    Get a third and kill the game off.

    Don't you think we'll play differently against those better sides?
     
    CP aren't even bothering to mark the wide areas. Our FBs are getting a ridiculous amount of space.
     
    I know we're winning, but I expected better from us overall.

    I'm sure Jose will feel the same.
     
    A bit of a post Europe lethargy in play here, nothing to be too concerned about. Still comfortably ahead of a team without any real attacking threat.

    Young's cross was mint, but he's been a bit cack defensively. The little joy that Palace has had came down that right flank.

    True but he's neither a proper full back, nor do we need a defensive full back against Palace.

    He got skinned a couple of times but provided an assist. Happy to make that trade in this game. Palace might have Barcelona's colours but that's where the similarities end.

    He has his uses. It's not pretty but right now he's scoring goals and we're winning. If anything you'll probably see Herrera on for Mata against Liverpool.
     
    Got a championship acca on and corals cash out has been unavailable! Annoyed is an understatement.

    Good half, lets get another couple for the GD.
     
    Not even out of first gear. Letting Palace get forward a bit to much but they offer nothing. Hopefully step up abit and put them to the sword and rack up the GD.

    I'm sure Jose will feel the same.
    He will privately be wanting a cricket score. It will make a statement. I want at least 5, otherwise the media will be saying City were better than us.
     
    Young is our best option at LB right now. Two straight weeks putting in a fantastic cross for a goal.

    Perfect game to improve goal difference and better that on city, we should score more goals.
     
    You have to give Fellaini more credit every time he involves he plays and do his best and even he is a big threat now in the are. Fellaini scores goals.
     
    We played shit and we are 2-0 up, its like good old fergie days. We have basically scared them into conceding two goals.
    Effort from the players seems to be missing, maybe they are taking it too easy?
