I keep going back and forth on this... that header, how intentional do we think that was? Does it just hit him? Is he purposefully heading that into the floor? Is he trying to direct it that way and the bounce is a fortunate by product?

That isn't his game. He is at his best in the role Steve Clarke found for him as an attacking goalscoring midfielder with Scotland. The lad has done what he is told - defence, defensive midfield but they clearly are not his best positions. For a boy who is our top scorer he deserves just a little bit more credit than he gets. The fact is he is United through and through and has played everywhere for the club...even to the detriment, perhaps, of personal achievement. He actually looks more likely to score when on than Hojlund and could easily play up top with our thin squad. A valuable player.He is excellent from the bench. However, whenever he has to start instead of the players in front of him in the team, he is so bad. We can not progress the ball, we can not dictate tempo, we can not dominate possession, we can not defend properly. Just because of the latter, we need to have a more balanced player, that can be good on both fronts.
You can't possibly rate him. Also, he is nowhere near as good as Højlund.That isn't his game.

Who has scored more goals in the Prem?You can't possibly rate him. Also, he is nowhere near as good as Højlund.
If you genuinely believe that McTominay is more likely to get us a goal than Højlund, you are very mistaken.Who has scored more goals in the Prem?

It means exactly what it says. The guy is not a Manchester United player.What does that mean? He can't possibly rate him as anything other than shit? What if he thinks he is a decent PL player and not the league 1 standard donkey that so many repeat to fit in with the rest of the sheep in places like the goldbridge channel.
Who has scored more goals in the Prem?
He’s scored a few this season, though not consistently. Never done it before though. Last season he scored 1 in 24 and the previous season 1 in 30. Before that it was 4 in 32 and 4 in 27. This myth that he’s a big goal threat is just nonsense. Steve Bruce from centre half had a comparable scoring record to McTomminey.Who has scored more goals in the Prem?

I'm one of Scott's biggest critics, but this is somewhat unfair. This is the first season that he's being played in an an attacking role. The previous two seasons where he's scored only 1 each he was mostly being played as a defensive midfielder, and the seasons before that as a box-to-box. As such, if we're talking about how much of a goal threat a player is it only makes sense to base it on the position that they are playing now. It's about the one thing that Scott is doing to a decent level. It's everything else that he brings (or that he doesn't bring to be more exact) that is the issue.He’s scored a few this season, though not consistently. Never done it before though.

I did not like the sub at all. I dont like it at all when McT is on the pitch but he was good today. He also seems to be learning. Not too long ago he went for a shot and missed, today he went for the pass and Garnacho scored.
I would still sell him to gather funds for a much better player though.
He's fine coming on as a sub when the opposition are chasing the game. He is nowhere near good enough to start games and he was awful when we had a major injury crisis when he regularly started. If you cannot trust a player to do a job when rotation is needed then his time should be up at the club.Sometimes I feel like im one of the few who thinks McT deserves a longer stay with this club. Where my fellow McTominators/Tommies at?
Agreed usually I worry a bit but mainoo looked a little leggy and needed a rest plus west ham were just lumping it into the box so gave us more height.If ever theres a game you don't mind him coming on it's West Ham. Did ok
Agreed, but weirdly this time it was the first time I wasn't hugely worried when he came on. Maybe he knew it's the audition for his summer move .Normally I despise him on the pitch (seems like a great lad though), but today he was very good. Good runs, a nice assist and a couple of good passes as well.
He's 27 and we now what we get with him which is awful to average performances. It's time to cash inNot sure why people struggle to give him any credit. Coming off the bench and getting goals and assists again.

Should have had another assist, should have played Antony in.
Well, it's not given that Antony would have scored, but it was the correct thing to do.
Nevertheless, I like him in his substitution role. Roams around with fresh legs, commits to challenge, looks dangerous.
Can't be a starter for me.
