Dodgy second half but not that dodgy.

Great win.

Rashford.

Lukaku did his job too.

 

[Sandyman]

What did neville do?

Kept moaning and being overly critical of Utd. Think he mentioned 3 or 4 "penalties" to be given for Liverpool

 

[crossy1686]

I enjoyed that immensely. Got a little nervy, but they never seemed to have the quality in the final third today.

Rashford is such a big game player. He just rises to the occasion.

It reminded me of the Fergie days.

 

[MonkeysMagic]

Fantastic win, and good overall performances from the team. But...and I don’t want this to come across as criticism...I just wish we could retain the ball better then merely giving it back at the time when under the cosh. That’s got nothing to do with tactics but composure.

 

[Canagel]

We did the job in the first half. Liverpool weren't going to score so it took own goal from us. Bailly was immense and I can't blame him really because we were too deep as a team and when your under that much pressure mistakes can happen. The first half was everything I want to see from United. Liverpool need to take the big L with grace because they were tactically outclassed.

 

[Tosicsleftpeg]

Ashley Young was man of the match. Consistently brilliant throughout.
We can enjoy the rest of the weekend now.

I agree he was incredibly good today

 

[Nate Dogg]

he did not.

Not surprised, needs to be dropped to the bench for a few games.

 

[Andycoleno9]

For me as expected. They can't break organised defence. They are pure speed and need space. Mourinho put this great.
Despite og, bailly is our best defender by far. Also not a fan of Mctominay, but he played excellent today. Young on salah was also just perfect.
Not happy with the second half. Defend and play football is good, like we did in first half, but in second half we only played defence without any plan to go forward. But 3 points against liverpool. Only matters here.

I must be honest and say that that valencia hand should be penalty. . But again, salah slapped young in the face so....

 

[lopiop]

So many fouls from pool players yet no cards given

 

[Dobba]

Eat that you fecking scouse cnuts.

 

[Android1974]

“Heavy metal football.” Unplugged, as the American commentator said.

 

[BusbyMalone]

For all the shit young was getting pre kick off, he was great defensively. Not great in possession, mind.

 

[Devil may care]

It was like watching a lower table team grinding and grafting vs a lame wannabe Barcelona. We were ugly, dogged, grafted hard and defended well. They offered next to nothing and needed our CB to actually get anything on De Gea's goal. Good 3 points but soul crushing to watch what we are becoming and a wake-up call for Liverpool in showing they have no plan B if a team doesn't let them play.

 

[The Man Himself]

What a win! Unnecessarily made tougher in 2nd half and crazy own goal to give away. Off to RAWK now for some salt

 

[Raees]

He'll be great after a proper rest and a preseason.

Sorry I meant I hope it is just fitness related. Next year hopefully will be his season but for the CL I think Rash and Martial need to come to the fore and take some pressure off him.

 

[OneFootball]

Can’t argue with result. A bit sick but you deserved it - better all over the park today.

 

[kouroux]

We seen off the cnuts. And despite all of their so called attacking talent none of their players could muster a goal against us home and away. How embarrassing for them to fail to score against just a shite team.

They failed to create a decent chance even

 

[crossy1686]

Jesse's bum fluff on his chin.

 

[onemanarmy]

All TV2 is talking about is Liverpool.

Belgian pundits are absolutely gutted Liverpool lost. I'm loving it.

 

[ash_86]

Best win of the season. City's turn next

 

[Random Task]

@Random Task you the man

I am a man, the man is probably pushing it though.

Just happy we won mate to be honest!

 

[Android1974]

With spot on tactically performances like these, we do have at chance in the Champions League. Problem is when we need to attack ourselves.

 

[Offside]

Wow these last few weeks have been reminiscent of Ferguson's final few years at United. Crazy comebacks, late winners, big game wins...never making it easy!

 

[RedElf]

Great win. Wasn't pretty, but it was effective.

 

[madzo2007]

Young was outstanding against Salah. So glad to have Bailly back. We pinpointed a weakness, exploited it and that was that

 

[Kapardin]

The positives - first half was very close to the famous 2-1 at Anfield under van Gaal. We absolutely bossed them and made them look like lily-livered twits.

Second half we reverted to a typical Mourinho side, soaking up pressure, but the plus side is, Jose's tactics actually work when you don't have Lindelof-Smalling or even Jones-Smalling in defense -- Bailly was a monster barring the OG, he pocketed Salah on occasions, while Young did that for the rest of the game.

Overall, one of the most satisfactory wins in recent history, though I think Mata should have made it 3 to add some gloss on the scoreline. We made their defenders look stupid while our own defense was rock solid.

Shout out for Lukaku, again, full of energy even till the last minute, got himself an assist too.

Wins against Chelsea and Liverpool, comeback against Palace, now onto Sevilla with confidence as it is a home game which we excel at.

 

[SadlerMUFC]

Own goal aside I thought Bailley was fantastic. I was concerned about him being selected seeing as he hasn't started in ages and thought Mourinho should have started him against Palace to prepare for this game. But he did really well. Obviously Rashford get MOTM for his 2 goal effort but the entire back line did really well today limiting Liverpool to only 2 shots on goal. With that performance any other day De Gea gets a clean sheet. I thought Lukaku was really good as well as he was involved in both goals. Sanchez stuggled again though but I don't expect this to be a common theme for him. He's too good of a player to keep struggling like he is...

 

[The Taurean]

Excellent and strong performance from Rashford, Young, Bailly, Matic, Tominay, Mata and Lukaku.

 

[ThaReaper01]

Rashford, Matic, McTominay, Young, Smalling and Bailly outstanding. Thought Sánchez was quite poor but he worked and did some good things towards the end.

 

[Sly]

Looks like Mourinho got his big games mojo back. I hope he mantains it in the City match.

 

[Android1974]

The sulkers and moaners of the team, Pogba and Martial, should reconsider.

 

[Wal2Fra]

What a result against one team who are capable of winning anywhere. They had 1 clear chance all game and were gifted the OG to let them have a sniff but that was arguably our best defensive performance under Jose.

Magic 3 points, my heart still intact too!

 

[Full bodied red]

Thought that The Ref was our best player today, closely followed by Ashley Young.

 

[lewwoo]

Congrats mate. I did that same tour 10 years ago, and it's still one of the best memories. And I didn't have the Man Utd result to add at the end of it.

Dont want to derail thread but what a place mate. Here with my old man and you just stumble across one amazing sight after another in the center of Rome. Been blown away by the place and recommend to anyone.

 

[ROFLUTION]

Can we please erect these statues along River Irwell but with the faces of Bailly and Young?

 

[Kraftwerker]

Schooled them first half. Should've been more comofortable.

De Gea untested apart from from our own player.

Liverpool were tootheless. Salah anonymous.

 

[Jazz]

Wonder what Klopp is going to complain about today

 

[SadlerMUFC]

Feels so good right now.
Sex doesn't get close to this

Maybe you aren't doing it right lol

 

[Darkhorsez]

Just watching the interviews with Young, Rashers, lingard - we do have a lot of maturity in the team. Well done lads!

 

[togg]

I haven't been as hyped up and nervous this much about a game for sometime! What a great feeling. We had plenty of games like this under Fergie against the Scouse. They are always a bit different. It was obvious Liverpool were going to go for it more in the seconds half, that is what Klopp would have told them, and if we hadn't had the OG I think it would have felt more comfortable in the second half. I mean....did they actually have any shot on target? Kind of forgotten in all the excitement. That is Chelsea and Pool Mourinho has now put to bed recently.

 

[Hans Wurst]

feck off Klopp.

feck off Neville.

feck off all our emo fans doubting us before the game.

Thats Manchester fecking United.

so true. Weekend has reached peak form
