Watching the game and now this morning watching the highlights, I'm falling back in love with this squad.
Now don't get me wrong even during Moyes and LvG I loved the club, the boys but watching them play as they did yesterday (and I know it's only Sunderland at home, but has not exactly been a gimme over the last few years) was a bloody joy!
The pressing, passing and most of all movement. Watching Herrera buzz around and always offering an option, neat passing and keeping everything moving alongside the imperious and evergreen Carrick.
Now add into the mix Mata, who I think is a phenomenal footballer, smart, inventive and comes inside and works so well with Carrick, Herrera and the front line, quick one twos, excellent combinations meaning we look sharp.
At Fullback I love Daley Blind, maybe not an athlete but smart, great technique and when going forward can contribute unlike Darmian. Valencia is a personal favourite of mine, works so hard, so fast, determined and is just a Manchester United player if you get me.
Pogba is starting to look like the boy, every week is dominating, assists, chances, exciting play and love watching him perform.
Ibra is well, a freak of an athlete, Cantona esque ability to raise those around him. Great player and a great seeing him in his pomp, firing in goals and being awesome.
Apologies for the love in but I had to convey how nice it is to see a group of players becoming a team. I feel it's down to Mourinho and cannot wait for the next game.
