Another good game. My MOTM today. His passing is becoming more and more penetrative. Great to see.

 

[Truedevil]

I think he will be dropped against City which would be a shame because these last two games he was immense.

Should be the first name on the teamsheet really.

Dropping him would be a monumentally stupid thing to do.

 

[MyOnlySolskjaer]

Doing a good job, fair play to him.

 

[Randall Flagg]

He was decent. After Herrera he was our best player

But at times very sloppy passing, Just needs to keep it simple

 

[The Man Himself]

Good performance. I voted Martial MoM but Schneiderlin was our most consistent and best player today. Just went with Martial because the goal gave a important point.

 

[Raw]

He should seriously be a first team player, just showing the reasons why I wanted United to buy him so much.

 

[thepolice123]

He is going to be one of the best buys of the season.

 

[mu77]

very good at his position.

 

[Dobba]

If the Arsenal game hadn't gone the way it did, he probably would be dropped.

 

[tom33]

Thought he was really important today. Can't remember him putting a foot wrong and showed incredible composure under pressure at times.

 

[Devil may care]

Looks to be finding his composure on the ball and is now using it really well.

 

[facund]

MOM for me, didn't do anything special but did his job well and provided a solid base for others to do so (the fact that they didn't can't be blamed on him).

 

[Manny]

He was poor against Wolfsburg but it looks like LvG must have given him a dressing down.

Looked good against Everton and very assured today. Great to see.

LVG probably gave himself a dressing down for not playing him vs Arsenal

 

[Baxter]

Brilliant today.

 

[Manny]

I'm one of the few who had no problem with him being dropped after the Wolfsburg game (that was before our awful start against Arsenal). He made those around him look bad because he wouldn't show for the ball. Haven't seen that from him since...

 

[cyberman]

The spine of our team looks really strong with Jones / Smalling behind Morgan.
Fills me with confidence ahead of the City game. If KDB starts centrally we could handle him with those 3 playing as they are.

 

[ZDwyr]

My MOTM. A tiny bit sloppy with his passing but I will forgive him because he makes us so solid defensively.

 

[Offside]

Will be key v City.

 

[VanGaalEra]

He must start against City. I'll be furious if we play Basti and Carrick on the weekend.

I've got a bit of a nasty feeling with Basti going off and Carrick not appearing recently, we might be starting with Basti/Carrick on Sunday, which would be ridiculous.

As for Schneiderlin, he's starting to boss it in the middle for us. He has to start along with Ander.

 

[Lawman]

Such a good solid signing.

 

[m1y2]

I think he was great on the ball, it's good to see him being more confident, trying a through ball from time to time and carry the ball forward. Top signing , I think at the end of the season he will prove my words right that he will be an uprade on Carrick

 

[Bojan11]

So your criticism of him before was that he keeps it simple too much and you never seen a player like that at Man Utd.

Now you want him to keep it simple when he does try risk passes.

 

[Randall Flagg]

Don't think I have ever critisised him for keeping it simple too much

I have critisised him at times for failing to get into games poor passing and poor pass selection. I would encourage him always to keep it simple

 

[Adam-Utd]

Was very good again today, made plenty of interceptions and kept the ball ticking over nicely, found Herrera quite a few times with some nice forward passes.

We definitely need his energy in CM, we just look so much better with him and Herrera.

 

[Ryan7]

I thought he was excellent. Great energy and made some excellent long passes.

 

[m1y2]

I thought he was excellent. Great energy and made some excellent long passes.

I love how he's two footed and people said he couldn't be Carrick's successor. Schneiderlin can no doubt pass but he needs confidence to show that and that he's got right now. He will only get better if he plays regularly, still 25. Him and Herrera bossed it tonight.

 

[Mark_GrumpyLion]

Bossed the midfield today. Great performance, lots of energy and attempted to get the play going forwards.

I think some didn't see him as Carrick's successor as he's different. A bit like the Carrick and Keane thoughts years back due to how different they are/were.

 

[PlayerOne]

Another good game, seems to be better alongside Basti and Herrera. Must start against City.

 

[Antisocial]

Another very good performance from him and in my opinion it should be him plus 2 in midfield from now on.

This.

When our most defensive minded midfielder comes up with this theory. He's spot on.

 

[bosnian_red]

Another good game, seems to be better alongside Basti and Herrera. Must start against City.

All 3 of them are better alongside each other. It's a very good group of midfielders, though it's not necessary when the other team parks the bus. For any big game though, where the other team doesn't sit at the edge of their box for 90 minutes with the occasional counter, it's a great trio. Just lacked a bit of creativity today (could've used Mata/Memphis earlier I think).

I think Herrera missed Mata today, he links up with him and makes space. Basti had a quiet game too. Hope we start with those three against City though.

 

[NoPace]

2 good games in a row. Much sharper on the ball. Good stuff.

 

[Ballache]

Thought he was our best player, I'm liking the forward passing he's shown in the past couple of games. Needs to start vs City.

 

[Akshay]

Exactly. I'm not getting all the praise of his passing this game. Was good defensively, and held us together after Schweiny went off, but the team is carrying him going forward and right now we've too many players like that. Either he needs to improve technically himself or the players around him need improving (Rooney, Jones, Rojo).

 

[Cassidy]

I'm one of the few who had no problem with him being dropped after the Wolfsburg game (that was before our awful start against Arsenal). He made those around him look bad because he wouldn't show for the ball. Haven't seen that from him since...

It was his first game in the UCL. Prior to that he had played a number of PL games and been one of the key reasons for our defensive stability.
How knee jerk is that to drop him after one game, when we had Rooney and Memphis playing like crap for the majority of the season. He made a mistake playing 2 slow CM vs Arsenal and their speedy attack.

 

[mav_9me]

He has played himself into the starting lineup. Great performances and now he is becoming part of the spine. DDG-Smalling-Schneiderlin.

We are moving on from Carrick.

He is actually revelling playing as the deepest of the midfielders, instead of beside Carrick.
