Can he come on at half time every game please 
Love it
In Carrick, Bastian and Herrera, we probably have the best midfield in the league. We should make the most of it before the older two are over the hill.
Thanks Bayern.
He plays for Manchester United.
We need a gif of that pass. It was fantastic.
What are they saying?
I want to sleep with that pass it was that beautiful.
Nice, cheers @Unlikely lad!
The pass
"Deutsche Football Meister, Bastian..."
One of the best passes I can remember from a United player in the last few years.
Ahh german football master
is that from before the match or when he was still at Bayern?Think it was earlier before the game, his brother put the video up on Twitter!Ahh german football master
You forgot to mention the most important and perhaps the best player in our midfield.
That is genuinely one the best passes i've seen in a long time. That doesn't even say something about the state our midfield has been in since the days of Scholes & Carrick, because it was so insanely good. That centre-back will have nightmares about it.
He also made a great pass just moments after he came on; I think it was the Rooney penalty call. 6m pounds for potentially the best CM in the league sounds like a good deal to me.

It seems to be United fans singing in Brügge... (it is not Germans singing - you hear the accents...)
Obviously he might have come anyways for Van Gaal or because of our history, but we're lucky that Real or Chelsea didn't realize that even if healthy for only half a year, he'd be a massive signing for them.
Sheesh - watched the game (sort of - was in a browser in background while at work). Didn't realize how good that pass is - with 2 players bearing down on him and threading it perfectly with the right weight ... nice.
Though to me the best pass in recent times is still Herrera to Mata at Anfield

Wow!!! That was orgasmic! Just noticed that he was actually closed down by two Brugge players and he did not panic and just calmly slotted that pass. Not everyone can do that. Completely agree with many of the comments here that he is going to be important in those vital CL games along with PL games. Plus, he is still not fully fit. A fully fit, raring to go Basti would be a sight to admire!
I still cannot believe we have signed Bastian Schweinsteiger...

Here's that pass from the other angle.
That one second delay on the pass is critical - sucks the two opposition players in and gives Herrera the time to make that break forward.

Bastian fecking Schweinsteiger! Glorious.
That pass is ridiculous because it seems like the ball is too close to his standing foot and therefore it would make the pass much more difficult but he pulled it off with some ease.
Love him to bits, What i have noticed plenty of times he plays first time passes alot, Carrick for all his class doesn't play too many first time passes. and he tries some very difficult passes at times. I feel with him we will be far more creative going forward than Carrick. Yesterday him and Herrera there were so many ocassions when they played very difficult first time passes which other players might have taken two touches, and it increased the tempo of our play in the second half to the extent Brugge couldnt keep up with it.
That pass
That pass just didn't make any sense.
The average person wouldn't try that but it's like he saw the run but he didn't see any opposition players in the way and nailed it.
Enjoying the midfield options this season.
Should have a top central midfield every game.

Van Gaal said a very smart thing about him recently: "Schweinsteiger is a coaching player." I think this is a perfect description. Whenever he plays he gesticulates and conducts all the time and every teammate. If a young boy would do that, the others would hate him for sure. But a BFS is allowed to do so imo. Even more because he is not only critizing ("You should have played that pass") but also gives positive feedback on the pitch if I interpret his gestures correctly.
That song is great! Is it from his Bayern days or was it made by our fans?
delighted we signed this guy.
My jaw is still on the floor.
It is a famous Bayern chant, but the Bayern fans sing "Deutscher Fußballmeister... FCB" ("German Footballchampions... FCB" stands for FC Bayern)
I think the pass to Rooney before that penalty incident was bloody sublime too.
Still can't get over that pass
I'm glad you guys are enjoying him. He's in good hands and that's good. I'd hate it if he wasn't appreciated.
Edit: Also... GOOD TO HAVE YOU BACK IN THE CL! Let's break that spanish dominance. 5 teams, I'm getting sick just thinking about it... :P
