Should play instead of Carrick as soon as he's fit. Carrick is not doing too well and Schweini just brings something to our midfield that we miss

Just caught TalkSHITEs post commentary on the game. They said he looked as if he was an old man playing with kids and looked out of his depth, were they watching the same game?
Still cant believe he plays for us.
Bastian fecking Schweinsteiger.
Bastian fecking Schweinsteiger.
I think they're on drugs.
Imperious. From the moment he came on the field he pretty much owned the pitch. The way he carries himself, he does have an aura. You can just tell Basti is someone who has literally won it all. He is not going to be afraid of being closed down or going into a 50/50. Whenever the ball went to him it was like a bit of pressure was relieved. The other players in the side must feel so good having him as an option.
Class. The perfect substitution for when he came on.
I love Basti. I am amazed we actually got him.
Sky Sports Germany thought he completely changed the game to our favor.
Good performance from Schweini, love his physicality, just pushes players away.
He's such a Rolls Royce of a player. One of classiest players in the premier league. Wish we had him 5 years ago.
He might actually be my second favourite ever player after Beckham.
Class.
Moment he stepped onto the pitch we regained control of the game. Last season in these sort of situations we ended up defending deeper and deeper, barely holding on to a lead.
Hope he starts against Bruge in place of Carrick.
I think he made a good difference in midfield when he came on. Wasn't a brilliant performance, but I like what I see. If he can stay fit I reckon he could be a game changer for us. We looked a little more threatening with him and Herrera on the pitch.
It's brilliant how he eases pressure by passing and then instantly positioning himself to receive it back. Also, he knows perfectly when to push ahead.
If only we had such a player during those CL finals.

I'm actually tempted to say he was our man of the match. When he came on he just controlled the game.
Controlled it effortlessly when he came on, don't see how anyone can see any negatives in him tonight.
He was immense I thought when he came on
Has made a difference each time he has come on. Hopefully he and Morgan start on Tuesday.
Well it is called TalkShite for a reason.
He was very good when he came on. He doesn't move like he's unfit but he does look like he's carrying a few pounds. Maybe it's just the shirt..
What a class player. It just feels comfortable whenever he receives the ball while we're under pressure. You just know he won't feck up. I hope he starts against Bruges.
Can't wait for him to start getting into the starting 11. So, so good.
He was just commanding today.
Like this picture on the BBC live updates page with him and Memphis at the end
This guy is pure class. I am thinking that we can be champions because of him.
Well they talk about him all the time anyways, it's getting a bit OTT. Anyhow, he certainly had a positive impact and it stopped AV running at us all the time. It also helped that we had a 3-men midfield imo
I truly believe that he brings so much more to United and especially the dressing room. Great to have himLike this picture on the BBC live updates page with him and Memphis at the end

I literally just clicked on here to add that picture. If you'd never heard of Manchester United, who would you think is the captain from that pic?
He's an absolute class act.
He played also some brilliant balls. Just wanted to highlight the different agendas. I definitely agree more with Sky Sports Germany though
I can't tell the difference between him and Shaw. There's been numerous times i've been shocked at how fast he is
Well Rooney talking to Depay would look strange as Rooney was far worse than him today. Fair play to Schweinsteiger though. He is true captain material anyway.
This.
Rooney would look less out of place if he was wearing a strap on and plastic comedy tits, than he does with the arm band on when Schweinsteiger is on the pitch. Bastian Schweinsteiger is older, lacking match fitness and has had loads of injuries, yet he has no excuses. He goes out and lets you know who the man is. Because he is a world class player. You cant pick and choose when you're world class. Its always there in the way you carry yourself. Its offensive how bad Rooney played today. And I'm not even a negative poster. I never lost faith in Fellaini or Ashley Young. I'm a proper push over. But the way he's playing at the minute doesnt justify his place in the side.
Agreed.
Rooney take note: this is a leader.
Just reading this thread makes me miss him so much 
. And that after a pretty great 5-0 win in the opening game tonight. I want him back.
