My MOTM, gritty performance and some lovely footwork to create the first goal.
Great game today again. Anyone putting the blame for the goal conceded on him, needs to go into captain Young's thread.
Manchester United striker Romelu Lukaku:"We want to dominate, we want to score goals and we want to keep clean sheets. We had the game under control.
"Luke Shaw is our player of the season for me and I'm glad he gave me the pass for the first goal. When players come back from injury they can add to the team, it's a really strong squad."
Seems like he heard you
Would be pretty hilarious if they did. Young mistake caught the whole defence off guard and our midfielder (don't know which one) didn't track their runners.Great game today again. Anyone putting the blame for the goal conceded on him, needs to go into captain Young's thread.
He was v.good going forward early in the season (which tends to be forgotten) but then started getting different instructions, esp under Ole, which was a masterstroke as we've looked remotely solid defensively thanks to that. Esp with a bomber on the other side and ultra-offensive players in front of him. Now he's strong both defensively and attacking-wise. This level of full-back performances is good enough for an ambitious United alright.He has improved his attacking play in the last few games imo.
His stamina looks to have gone through the roof. He is up and down that pitch like a man possessed. Showed great speed when easily dealing with Townsend a few times.
Nah, Dalot played at least one game at LB, not sure if he was injured or rested.Has he played every minute since Ole took over?
My player of the year and he's pushing Robertson for best LB in the PL imo. Top class FB he's turning into.
Didn't play v Brighton at home (Dalot at LB) and Reading in the FA Cup (Young at LB, Dalot at RB). Otherwise he's played 90 mins in every game, really encouraging considering all the injury problems he had.Has he played every minute since Ole took over?

Because he... isn’t... chubby.Can we talk about his first touch please? It's so mint. He kills the ball every single time. I think him,Pogba and the special Juan have the best first touch in the squad.
And I still don't know how this chubby fecker can run so fast and keep up with most pacy forwards in the league.
He plays like a combination of a midfielder and a fullback. His touch and passing even in tight spaces is unbelieveable for a fullback. He is quick, very good at shielding the ball, wins most duels, almost impossible to dispossess and is quite dominant in most aspects of the game. He is magnificent.Can we talk about his first touch please? It's so mint. He kills the ball every single time. I think him,Pogba and the special Juan have the best first touch in the squad.
