Gem of a player. Possibly the best tekkers in the team. LvG loves him, there's no way he's going to be sold.

Brilliant. Not much more to say.
Let's hope these last two games were the catalysts that spurred his career at the club to new heights. He has everything necessary to play a big part in taking us back to where we should be.

As Carrick said, he's a little magician. I don't want to see him out of the team for a second again, he's just too good.
Juan has just cemented he's place in Utd fan folk law. He was outstanding today, one of the best individual performances I've seen for some time from a Utd player.
Classic performance that will never be forgotten by United fans. That goal was the best moment of the season for me.
Its incredible. With the right players around him, he can be the centerpiece of a very very good team.
Two excellent goals indeed. So happy for the man. Just felt Rooney should have allowed him to go for the hat-trick. Next week more of the same please.
Thanks Moyesy!
He's given us Fellaini and Mata, maybe we shouldn't be so harsh on him
I take back all criticism, Juan.

he would have bought Herrera too, he knows his stuff.

While Di Maria and Falcao sat on the bench. Incredible
And Shaw. Clearly those two were his buys.
Juan Mata, Mata
He scored with a bicycle kick,
And made all the scousers feel sick,

Even without the goals, he would have been the best player in the match. Made the team kicked, and never lost posession.
Briliant player!

I think he's been excellent for the last two games. He's been better in general since I whinged about him after the Southampton game...but he's doing what he should be doing now. Taking the ball in difficult situations and making things happen, instead of taking it in easy situations and passing it sideways.
It's matches like these which define you, I still remember the "he's not a United player" argument and that's definitely put to bed.
He certainly has nailed himself in the lineup.
Sorry Mourinho but this lad really does track for the team, what an engine.

Always loved Mata - so happy for him today. A performance never to be forgotten for us fans. Hugs Juan
2 goals vs them. This will be talked about for years.
I was wrong on this guy. I thought he wasn't a United player. Glad to say I am being proven wrong. What a wonderful footballer. As we move to a more 'continental' style of play he will become a key player for us.
Magician.

Fantastic stuff from him.
Really hope this gets him going properly as a United player now. A quality player in every way.

Mata and Herrera were a joy to watch. Desperately hope it's not too late for him to stay beyond this summer.
Looks so much better with a proper midfield in support. Always knew he could play from the outside tucking in, but it's never happening with the wrong system.
Best game of his United career. Always liked him from day one, he'll be more of a cult here now. That second goal in particular will never be forgotten. Who said he van't play in away matches?
To score that goal in a game of such magnitude - All one can say is 'What an absolute legend'. One of the greatest ever man utd goals considering the magnitude of it all...I have been a big critic of his as he has been anonymous in some other big games this season. But fair play to Mata and Fellaini....both of them have cemented their first team places and both have been crucial to our recent good form. 8 more games to go
Been saying all season he's been our best attacking player, hopefully this will cement his place in the starting XI. Should be one of the first 3-4 names on the team sheet.
Hang on, he even switched to a red kit straight after the goal. He really is a magician!
About 3 minutes before Mata scored (from goonersworld)
Panic buy.
I will always remember him for this goal. Hopefully I'll remember him for a lot more too.
Been on the fence with him. Two terrific performances, the world class performances we have been waiting for a year now. Chuffed for the guy.
More of this, Juan.

Bang on. Nobody will forget what he's done for us today. Makes it even better that's he's such a great character too.
Special goal from a special player. I was one of those who questioned his ability to play in these games but I don't think we can doubt his ability now. Hopefully he keeps his place on the right side of the team and continues to put in match winning displays like today.
Thought he would struggle today because of Liverpool's pressing but i don't think he gave the ball away once, this is the Mata we have been waiting to see, a player worthy of being at the heart of your attacks.
Hopefully he can nail down that position now.
Let's not forget the first goal. That was fecking brilliant as well
