Was quality tonight. The pace suits him better than England. Would be decent in PSG side
Was the same with Veron, different class in Europe.I liked how He stood up against PSG players when They tried to annoy Rashford.
He looked at home playing in CL more than in PL. Very rare case.
He was under performing but today He was good. Also tried to calm Rashford down just before the penalty kick and got a lot more involved, looked very different.Was the same with Veron, different class in Europe.
Wasn't he complete dogshit and a championship player only two weeks ago?

Maybe He just needs more time to adapt in PL. I'd give him one more season before judging him. Lindelof also started slowly for us.
Only just noticed it watching the replay of the pen incident in full, but there's a bit after the penalty area has been cleared out and Rashford is getting ready to take the kick - Bernat sneaks in trying to get in his face and Fred sprints over from the other side and fecks him off before he can even get there. I can't embed, but it's at 3:25 here.

OGS called it in his post-match. Saying Fred was more suited to the CL games. Worked really hard tonight. Feel happy for him.
Not surprised by this. He's been good in the CL for a few years now. Looks to me as if he's a player that has been shocked by the pace and physicality of the PL.
He was excellent. Tackles, interceptions and I thought he used the ball really well and was a calming influence. Mature performance. Great stuff !
Exactly, that trio on paper is our best midfield. Let's hope we see it soon.Pogba, Herrera and a reborn Fred in the middle. Man I'm looking forward to these three firing on all cylinders. It's going to be breathtaking.
