Utd actually controlled him fairly well over the 2 games, limited him to very few opportunities. Just that ridiculously efficient he can still make the difference.
Lindelof and Smalling were both fantastic at covering him when there were crosses coming in so they did a good job at limiting the amount of chances he got. If Mandzukic was on the pitch that task would have been twice as hard and things would have been different. Still, he understood that he was easy to control stooding inside the box and he moved all over creating all sorts of problems. Should have had a few assists in both matches.
In the first match, De Gea made a wondersave to stop the goal, this time he didn't but the movement and problems he created were similar. The idea was that as he was getting older he was going to become more of a poacher but this year he's turned away from that completely, it's insane the level at which he's playing his current role at nearly 34 years old. I don't believe this can keep going for much longer and eventually Bernardeschi, Dybala and Costa will have to step up their chance creation.
