“Trent” has delusions of grandeur. WTF is he doing on the LW whilst Mainoo is tracking back covering him at RB?
Most overrated player in world football.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik and Imran are here to talk about a frustrating 2 points dropped at Crystal Palace. They then discuss the regeneration of Old Trafford. Finally, Nik is joined by special guest Michael Statham from the Football Oranje podcast - who gives us a more in depth look at our EL opposition FC Twente, and then runs through the (many) Dutch connections currently at United.
I don't even remember where I was in 1983
Ireland predictably just hacking players down at any opportunity. Ref's not been harsh enough.
There’s a meme saying that he’s a better right-back than Reece James because he has more assists. Even though a right-back, as a defender, is primarily supposed to defend.
The media feeds the narrative that he's great. He's good going forward but absolutely rubbish at everything else. How anyone thinks he's world class or one of the best RBs in football I don't know.
It’s because he’s a Liverpool player.
Is there no var in this game?
Because Kane non pen should have been checked and colwill went down in the area claiming some sort of throat thing but nothing checked?

I wouldn’t say the fullbacks have been any more attacking than they were under Southgate. If anything, they’ve played more of a supporting role, while Saka and Gordon have maintained the width, with Grealish and Rice drifting wide to create overloads.
Not in this day and age. If that was the case, we'd still have Wan Bissaka.
Impressive stuff from England so far. I’ve enjoyed this.
They're back...on the score sheet.
Missed the first half. How have Mainoo and Maguire performed?
Agree 100%.
That second goal was beautiful.
Maguire's had feck all to do.
And aside from being booked Mainoo has been fairly quiet.
Mainoo's been on the ball loads
Shameful stuff.
Playing at home with just 18% possession and 79 passes in total, England won't get many easier halves of football.
Yeah, but for me anyway, he's been keepinh it ticking over, but overall he's been fairly quiet, nothing special.
I think he had the most touches of anyone on the pitch? Didn't do anything spectacular, granted. But who did.
Quiet? He's made the most touches and passes on the pitch.
Ireland out here playing rugby
Probably Watkins with Solanke and Kane as backup.
Really want to see Angel Gomes, who is a great technician.
That first half will have entertained these people especially
Yeah, he's been quiet but tidy on the ball. It's not like he's running the game, or dictating the tempo, loads of touches and simple passes. He's probably not going to have an easier game this sesson.
England haven't played great here but Carsley playing proper attacking football.
fecking idiots. Embarrassing stuff.
What's the new manager learning with Kane upfront in this game?
That he definitely needs replacing?
Nothing, he's a charlatan.
Absolutely, he could be the one to bring it all home.
Just retire already Coleman.
TAA should be taking every free kick and corner,he is that much better at it than anyone at the moment.
You could just buy a new full back. He's all we have.
I think people are going to lose their mind over Angel Gomes if he gets a decent run out.
The type of player who will look like a magician compared to most players here.

Hopefully not, the Brits wouldn't like the Irish eating potatoes
I wouldn't go that far but after watching Southgate stifle them for best part of a decade its nice to see the players trying to play with less shackles.
