Two disastrous collective defensive breakdowns, two goals against. Oh well, at least it's still better than last season, when they outclassed us.
I think some conclusions emerge after the first three games (counting CS):
1. We're completely fine with Dalot on LB and Mazraoui on RB
2. Maguire, while mostly good, will cost us. Sooner or later it's time for De Ligt to start, and that time may be now.
3. The revived Casemiro might not be the at times spectacular liability he was last season, but he's not an awfully big asset either. Time to get that Ugarte deal over the line (and to pray he's the solution).
4. Mainoo looks more and more like a mainstay of this team, more so than last season. Then he was an injection of spice and quality, now he's the glue.
5. Time's up for Rashford as a starter, for now. Let's have Garnacho.
6. Bruno is a #10.
7. Mount may not be useless in that position either (and he was a good deal better today than against Fulham), but all things considered he looks destined for the bench
8. Amad has taken ownership of the right forward position, for the time being
9. Zirkzee should start up front. Such a smart player, does the small things right and positions himself well.
