    This goal was all on Bailly, not Darmian. A full back is not to be expected to stay wide to mark a winger when the ball is on the opposite end. He was correctly positioned and had little to do with the good pass out on the wing.

    Bailly was walking and played the assister onside and then let the scorer in front of him. He's clearly been injured for half the match and should have taken himself off a long ago.

    I concur. Can't expect him to block the cross either when the Stoke attacker gets a yard advantage.

    Can BT sort their scoreboard out. Amazing how they cannot bring a simple time and scoreboard in 2017.

    Haha. I just tweeted them about that. Thought it might have been my TV or Youview box. Glad it's not.
     
    feck I turned off for halftime :lol::mad:

    Darmian is a pointless player and that's not only because he was poor for the goal. He offers nothing going forward and is average at best when defending.

    We might as well play Smalling at left back. He'd at least defend well, and we wouldn't be missing anything from an attacking sense as Darmian offers feck all anyway.
     
    Could take Herrera off & bring Mata/Martial on as we don't really need the extra CM
     
    Poor half although we didn't deserve to go behind. No surprise it came down their right though. Darmian has been terrible. Herrera is too mediocre for my liking.
     
    Mkh really switches off in these games on the right side.

    Seen nothing from him so far on the ball, his workrate and movement drops down.
     
    Can see another goal. Hopefully we get it. Draw would not be a terrible result.

    You see something new every time
     
    Not going down that 'blessing in disguise' malarky but, that Stoke goal was a wake up call for us. I think we will pick it up much more in the second half. Good going to get a goal back - Mourinho himself said let's see how we do when we're chasing a game.

    I agree. Loses all his 50/50 balls. I would bring on Martial around 55/60.
     
    I'd take Ander Herrera off and get miki central. Martial and ashford on the width should keep their fullbacks from bombing forward. Should give us a but more penetration up top.

    :lol: How is that a Rashford goal, no way that was more than a deflection.

    Was double celebrating for the Pogba fantasy points, then saw the deflection :)
    Has to be Rashford's goal though. It would have stayed Pogba if it was a defender there, but they always give it to the last attacking player to touch.

    Herrera hasnt been great. Then again he hasnt been poor either. Just hesitant on playing that ball to the strikers.

    stoke sitting back at home with a 5 man defence and another 3 or 4 in midfield. Its always going to be difficult.
     
    Great response.

    Was waiting to see how the team would react when giving up the 1st goal and playing from behind. What was that, 1 maybe 2 minutes Stokes lead lasted? Great instincts from Pogba and a bit unfortunate he won't be getting the goal haha
     
    Would take Herrera of and bring Martial in actually.

    Shift Rash to the right and get Martial on the left. We need more drive going forward if we really want to challenge them.
     
    Really good response to their goal. It was looking the usual Stoke away slog until then.

    Need to step it up a gear, a win here wil be huge
