It’s mad to think that we dominated that match but they still could have easily scored about 3 or 4. A lot of them without them even needing to have a shot.
Great to get the win. People were worried that we might have issues with them considering our squad depth, but we did fine I think.
Rashford showed some glimpses of his old form, Martial looked ok at times (he lacks match fitness I think), and AWB had a redemption.
Routine win with two quality goals. Burnley got what they deserved out of the game (nothing) with their only decent chances coming from United errors/lapses in concentration
Potential banana skin avoided. I thought we pressed well at the start and stopped Burnley settling into their passing game, our superior quality showed in the end, rustiness or no. Decent watch, thank feck the proper football is back again.
Given the history, this was a fairly easy 90 minutes. They may have shed quite a few of their thugs as they went down into the Championship, but I was a bit worried with the potential aerial bombardment. None of that really.
Rashford continues his excellent form. And Dubravka makes me think Heaton is probably the better keeper, despite his age.
Job done and into next round. Just hope we don't draw either of City/Liverpool or Newcastle as we won't have Bruno available (and it's not like we want to draw tough opponent anyways).
Decent result and, most pleasingly, we never really felt like throwing it away. A game we were expected to win we won comfortably. Where's the negative?!
Good win, that. Honestly expected us to lose tonight. A few of the boys looking really sharp. Dubravka a bit of a disaster but luckily didn’t cost us. We have a good chance in this competition.
