Poor first half, Weghorst was my MOTM first 45..Sabitzer started good but fell off after and was invisible but was very good again for his last 20. Maguire had some very bad easy passes, that will count as successfull, but put his teammates under a lot off pressure and he was slow as always. He had some very good defensive headers though. Casemiro started bad but was immense 10 minutes in. Bruno was invisible for most part, but his crosses and corners where amazing. Martinez, what a mad lad :D some unnecessary fouls at the start but solid after. Man, that bicycle kick would have been goal of the year. That sliding tackle after the third goal:D The fighting spirit towards the end off the game in our team was great to see. We got "lucky" once again, but we deserve it because we put them under a lot of pressure at the end and gave ourselves a chance to get "lucky". Glad we won but it was not a great game to watch. The difference in quality compared to our first eleven is undeniable.
Edit: Casemiro is a great header. Weghorst's first touch is awful, and he is so, so slow...also he looks very funny when he tries to sprint. :D Other than that a very usefull player. Anthony would be an amazing player if he had two feet. I dont understand why he has zero confidence in his right...makes him incredibly one dimensional. I would make him get a penalty in training if he touches the ball more than 3 times in a row with his left. Malacia had some great tackles but a gave the ball away too many times. He has a lot of potential but is still very green.

Unsurprising start, brilliant response to conceding. Fully expected us to go out today as a hangover and the congestion but we keep going. Glad no OT.
 
That'll do Aguerd, that'll do.

What a performance after the 0-1. Loving the intensity, chasing a goal. That's what United is all about!
 
This Utd side is so reflective of the manager, and Utd have a great one in Ten Hag.

Two quality additions in the summer and they are challenging for the title, no doubt about it.
 
What a team!

Weghorst deserves an award for his spirit but then again there are others who deserve it just as much!
 
United were really fortunate to get a lucky break with that first goal. Nevertheless, the win was well deserved. The attack in the opening half was too pedestrian, the connection with the midfield was disjointed. The team needs to start games with better attacking intent. Overall, it was a well controlled game. The red army marches on, GGMU!
 
United 300th game since the World Cup…it’s bound to get scruffy.

But it’s never dull! great mid-week entertainment.
 
First half we played well in attack, we just couldn't score WH keeper had some good saves. Maguire and Lindelof can't be trusted together, and with Degea's saves kept us in the game. Nothing more to say about Casi best signing of the year in Europe with Napoli's Midfielder. Wout and Malacia played their heart out, the only player I felt was not paying to his level today is Antony hope he focuses on Liverpool for Sunday.
 
Fulham not easy but we should still win it. Written in the stars for Kompany to knock City out
 
Moyes got a few more wrinkles and grey hairs after this latest defeat. Poor guy.


...Nah feck him :lol:
 
Watching the goals back i wouldn’t be surprised is Aguerd was on the take to throw the match
 
Subs made the difference, majority of starting 11 are not even squad players if we want to go to next level.
 
Was hoping Grimsby fans would get a trip to Old Trafford
 
Starting to feel like the old days. We win even when we're not particularly good. Didn't even start playing until they scored. Once we turned up the heat it was always going to be for us.
 
This united side remind me of the early/mid 90s, pre class of 92 team. Full of the characters, leaders, and hard bastards.

love it.
 
Great win with a rotated side. It’s all about getting into the next round at all costs. No injuries for the weekend either
