Mata's been good, linking the attacking play in dangerous areas so far.

Two great strikes from James so far.i suppose it's too much to hope we go for the throat and get another one or two...You could see Southampton fancied their chances. Goal has shut them down a bit
Think Fred is still at OT trying to get that red suit off.So our new right winger turns about to be better from the left
Need another goal before half timeMata showing better linkup play and movement on that left side than anyone has in quite a whileOof, that was a bad touch from Pereira.
I'm sure the consensus throughout the week was that Sanchez > James was our best bit of business. It was the other decisions posters questioned. You know, the non-replacement of Herrera/Fellaini and insistence on relying on Greenwood as our only back-up striker.
Not saying no posters said it but I didn't pick up on it as much.Celebrated too long though, not good enough mentality.Andreas needs to be strongerHe is so weak and easily pushed off the ball
And he dives.
He was a left winger at Swansea. Never a right winger.So our new right winger turns about to be better from the left
Mata has looked far better in that 10 role than lingard
Horrible individual. Gets a decent amount of pundit work, on a thimble full talent.Mata playing well so far.Black shirt with the red badge is nicepretty good defending there... calm and just sheparding out of playJames three goals in four. Pogba??Seriously, get perreria off
Don't be a dumbass. Impact is impact. Goals are goals.Man, the right wing is cursed. Even the right wingers we buy are better on the left.James has already scored as many PL goals for us as Sanchez did.De Gea is a clown. What is he doing with his goal kicks ?
Takes 30 seconds and gives it back to Southamptonrashford's been pretty quietPeirera put the whole team under pressure. I really want him to get his shite together because I don’t want lingard back here.19 min
Mata with a lovely lay off to Wan-Bissaka as he races into the box, the ball won't come down for him to shoot so he crosses but there's nobody there.Video of the goalGood touch by MataMata has done more today than Lingard has in the entire 2019.
While that may be true, the likes of Young will only be around for another year. We need to get back to a style of possession based attacking football and ingrain those fundamentals in our talented young players. If it means we play a few risky passes or even concede a few goals because of it, it will still be worth it in the long run.Everyone said he was better playing from the left when he signed.
I don’t understand why we sign players to play them in their non favoured roles.
Great goal by the lad.
He's also scored more PL goals for us than Aguero! Kid is unreal.
He's a midfielder, pipe down.
He was a left winger when we bought him. Played there for Swansea.What a ball in by McTominay.I wonder why Gomes isnt anywhere near this squad.
If he can do this against the bottom 14 we will be in good shape for the year. And he has plenty of potential.
What a fecking goal!!!DDG is so shite at playing out from the back
James was always mainly a left sided player to be honest...most posters just wanted to believe that he's the right winger we've all been waiting for- Status
