I forsee that one day we might win a game by more than one goal. But not yet, not yet.

 

[Gandalf Greyhame]

Hojlund, despite his miss, looks like he's going to be at least a good center forward, and possibly a great one - shame about his injury. Rashford and Garnacho both missing sitters as well. We didn't look good, and still could have won that 4-0.

5 and 6 points off media darlings Spurs and Arsenal.

 

[Yanited__]

Maguire man of the match
Rashford trying!
Mounts best stuff so far
Onana solid
Bruno fired up but meh
McT not so bad
Another poor game from a start for Garnacho
Rasmus should have scored

Not so bad. Take the points and move on

I actually agree with pretty much everything you said. Good summary.

 

[Camilo]

Classic performance. Keep results like this coming week in week out and we win the league.

 

[stevoc]

I wanted to be wooed. I was expecting nothing less than a 5 nill win. I feel like the players shat in my month with that performance.

For Luton?

Which fecking team have you been watching this season? Because its not this United team.

 

[The Irish Connection]

Luton made it difficult, we missed a couple good chances. Front 3 is broken apart from Hojlund who is promising but should have scored today.

Antony did ok when he came on, obviously gives us more balance but we definitely need an upgrade on him.

Maguire probably motm.

 

[GreatDane]

We would be alot more dangerous in attack if we had a winger that could cross the ball.

 

[Catt]

Clean sheet

 

[r0663664]

Another game forward misfiring, nothing coming from the right regardless who plays. Another nervy 1-0 win with a toothless opponent who almost score. 6 points from top, hurray to ETH. Still hanging in there with such a shit show. Maybe when the season our GD is +1.

 

[Barthez]

5 points behind the all conqueroring and lauded Spurs

 

[gaffs]

And the Reds go limping, on, on, on!

 

[Hester_manc]

A little strange:

United have scored 13 goals and have 16 goals against us. We are number 6.

N. Forest have scored 12 goals and have 15 goals against them. They are number 15.

 

[LDUred]

We won today in large part because Christian Eriksen was subbed off.

Looks like a Dad kicking a ball around with his kids in the park.

Maguire was our best player, Mount did pretty well.

Decent displays from Lindelof, Reguilon, Onana and that's it.

 

[BorisManUtd]

Big 3 points, especially for ten Hag. Not a good performance but still should've scored another 2 or 3.

Another good performance from Maguire, he's probably MotM.

Not going to complain much. We won and it's best possible way to go into international break. We'll need much better performances when the break is over as our fixture list will be much more difficult and 2 CL games will take a lot of players' energy as we basically have to win those two games to pass our group somehow.

 

[ti vu]

5 win out of 5 against current bottom 6. Playing the 7th placed from the bottom next game

 

[RuudTom83]

Next gameweek sees... City vs Liverpool, Spurs vs Villa, so more ground can be made up quickly if United beat Everton.

Top 4 by the half way mark would be bloody amazing all things considered.

 

[OrcaFat]

Important 3 points. Our strikers are really so wasteful it’s ridiculous.

I also can’t believe we’re only 6 points off the top 2 after the start we’ve had.

It’s the lack of goals that’s killing us. Obvs. We conceded too many as well but if we can just get the forwards scoring a few (some! Any!) goals, we’ll get nearer the top.

It can happen. However, it’s impossible to believe it at the moment.

 

[MonkeysMagic]

Not under any delusion that this team, with even the injured players back, is going to turn a corner and become good. We should just get used to tumescent 1-0 wins against weaker opp and the usual defeat against better ones, until the end of season. If better coaching candidates becomes available, one can hope we go for them.

 

[Rhyme Animal]

Great result today, much needed.

Always important to get the win before an International Break.

 

[MrBest]

Just happy I didn't bother watching. Happy to read we got the win. The performance sounds as unexciting as the line up.

 

[neon_badger]

I've pretty much forgotten that game already, Hojlund nearly scoring his first league goal with his knob was amusing though.

 

[JB08]

Only 5 points behind Spurs If we'd have beaten them we'd be above them.

 

[SilentWitness]

Mad how shit you've been and you are still in touching distance of top 4.

 

[Desert Eagle]

We were awful, just lucky we played Luton today. Keep playing like this and we have a thrashing coming our way.

 

[alsabi]

A little strange:

United have scored 13 goals and have 16 goals against us. We are number 6.

N. Forest have scored 12 goals and have 15 goals against them. They are number 15.

Our genius is in conceding most of our goals in defeats

 

[Todd]

Big sigh of relief after needing a goal from our backup CB to beat a club that'll be in the Championship next season at home in a match in which we have now probably lost two important players to hamstring injuries for a month.

 

[#07]

It wasn't great but we got the three points. Onto the next one.

 

[Camy89]

Sounds like we scraped through. Another papering of the cracks win. Nothing will change moving forward until we get humped…which is inevitable.

 

[OleGunnar20]

Can anyone recommend any good hobbies? I'm thinking of joining the Mrs with the crochet at this point.

 

[AndySmith1990]

Improved our GD to - 3. Onwards and upwards

 

[Pronewbie]

It's Luton obviously (ala Crystal Palace reserves in the League Cup) but I saw some decent patterns of play compared to the shower of shite we've been served the past few months. Onwards and upwards.

 

[Irwin99]

United have scored 13 goals and have 16 goals against us. We are number 6.

N. Forest have scored 12 goals and have 15 goals against them. They are number 15.

I'm really happy we won and the pressure is eased a little on EtH but i'm really concerned about how this season is going to go for goals. I was worried at the start of the season when we finished our transfer business but i did not think it would be this bad. Said it before but it reminds me of LVGs second season.

In general 13 goals in 12 games is pretty naff but for a club built on the foundations of attacking football and entertainment that's dire, it really is. We're going to come against some much better teams in December and if we don't improve our finishing we're fecked and it'll probably be yet another manager facing the sack.

 

[LDUred]

Hojlund is good but very, very raw right now to be leading the line in the Prem.

In a perfect world you would probably farm him out to get used to the hurly burly of English football.

People need to be a bit patient because this season he might only get a handful of goals in the Prem, but he's got something worth persevering with. A bit of bulking up in the gym will do wonders.

 

[BeforeKeanetherewasRobson]

Unless it's Palace

We’re not bothered about tin pot trophies this season… it’s the title or nothing!

 

[NZT-One]

I thought, we looked decent. Nothing to write home about but we were alright. In 1st half, it looked as if we had more zip to our passing and we moved the ball to move the opponent. Again - basic stuff but stuff that has been missing in recent weeks. I think winning is deserved, wasn't a great game but we did more than Luton.

 

[JoeyJoJoJrShabadoo]

For all the negativity, we are surprisingly close to top 4. Going by media reports you'd think we were 18th

 

[Redbandito]

Still don't understand the Mount transfer

There have been plenty of performances this year to make one ask this question. This wasn’t one of him. He was good today.

 

[edgecutter]

For all the negativity, we are surprisingly close to top 4. Going by media reports you'd think we were 18th

The performances are concerning and I think by Christmas we'll be out of the race

I think he’s better than good and we’re holding him back more than he is to us.

Ive not seen him struggle with physical side of things… well over 6 foot and almost 13 stone. He could maybe add a bit but might lose a yard of pace
