Finishing was the only blight on an otherwise great performance throughout the squad. At the moment Nartual came on, I wished it was for Rashford and not Antony. Yes of course Rashford was desperate to score, but he was off all day and bringing on a striker for a striker would not have been a daft idea.

Just watched the game Antony needs benching. How many one on one chances do you need. Why aren’t you running at defenders. Why aren’t you passing. FFS.

Maguire was excellent
Sancho was decent
Bruno masterclass
AWB. How do you miss that. Should have been 5-0

Most half decent opposition left backs know that, playing on the right, Antony is always looking to cut inside and shoot with his left, so why dont we try him on the left? That way he can go outside and cross with his left in the way of an orthodox left winger.

Not much point in crossing the ball when we don't have a striker in the box

Thought we had a good game across the pitch yesterday, even Maguire was good, although on another day he could have given away a penalty.

Eriksen's passing is levels above anyone in that team, and Bruno in a deep lying position has been excellent against the last two teams.

Hopefully Rashford's injury isn't too severe, but I fear he's out for a few weeks if he's got a strain.

Maybe you have noticed in other games Rashford and Antony switch sides once in a while to switch it up.

He made a half decent cross with his right near the byline during the match. I had to blink to make sure it really happened.

They don't do it much though.

No way he's going to work on the left side because:

- He does not have the pace to outrun the right back in order to get a cross with his left.
- We do not have a target man type of striker to score from crosses constantly
- He's quality is to keep the ball close to his feet and shoot at the far post, this thing can be done only from the right. Every one knows that, but from time to time he manages to be dangerous, not as often as we would like.

He reminds me of Robben, a little, big difference is that Robben had more explosive pace and also went to the outside once in a while that made him very hard to stop.
