Both our fullbacks have been amazing so far.

Good performance from him. Not convinced it was as good as some are making out but positive signs from him.
He'll be better than Gary Neville. There I said it.
10/10.
Won almost every tackle he attempted and looks solid position wise.

Very happy with him so far. To be honest he was the signing which I wasn't really sure if he would be a success here. But now I have no doubt he will be a brilliant signing for us 
Will be interesting to show his attacking side more.
Been class so far otherwise.

Everytime someone ran at our defence from his side, I was looking forward how Darmian would shut him down this time. Fantastic.
I fecking love his cute face when he turns around to check if his kick cleared the ball. Lovable little fecker
His defensive awareness is miles ahead of valencia. cant believe we bought him as a cover for him. Knows exactly when to tuck in to defend and senses danger so early.
Proper fullback performance!
Was a rock today. Was lucky to not concede a pen though
Flawless performance. The second coming of Gary Neville.
A bit like Vidic in the sense that you see him doing all the little things, the dark arts of defending, with aplomb from the first time he steps onto the pitch.

An intelligent, tactically-minded defender. Exactly what we needed.
Looks comfortable at RB wouldn't have thought this was his first season in England.
Darmian's making me forget about Rafa. That's how good he is.
Loved his handbags with that City reject Richards.

Don't believe that for a second. He was bought to be first team.
He still looks like it's a training ground game for him, he doesn't look like he's trying! Very impressed with him thus far.

Got better as the game went on but not as strong and composed as in the first game
Never got worried when Villa was attacking from his side. So solid defensively. Loved his handshake with Richards before the corner. Richards was thinking "Wtf?"
What he did with Richards was hilarious. Love the lad.
That's even more hilarious when you consider he's a fairly wiry lad and Richards is a tank of a man. What a guy.The cynical corner tactics actually make me trust his defensive nous even more. Gary Nev was the master of the defensive dark arts and this lad seems like his bastard Italian son.
He said it in a beautiful Italian accent.
Someone who can defend one-on-one *sheds tear*.
Cheeky bugger.
That's hilarious
Still cant believe the ref didn't give that as a pen though. He was looking right at it.
Played well despite that.

I love him.
How often do you see penalties given from shirt pulling during corner kicks? If they start to be given there will be 10 penalties each game.
It's not a pen to me. He was pulling Ricards' shirt but had released it just before Ricard jumped. A bit dangerous but well played by Darmain indeed.
Love Darmian. Oh my what a player we've got. Bringing his dark Italian arts to the Prem on United's behalf. Oh my
Showed tonight that his baby face belies some good old fashioned defensive skullduggery.
Richards actually thinks Darmian is pointing to his face as if he got something sticking there
He did he had a cut on his right cheekRichards actually thinks Darmian is pointing to his face as if he got something sticking there
And if anyone knows talent when he sees it, it's currently unemployed manager Stuart Pearce.
Luke Shaw is good aswell.
We were too nice for a while..we need that back.Love Darmian. Oh my what a player we've got. Bringing his dark Italian arts to the Prem on United's behalf. Oh my
So he's even versed in the dark arts, good to know.
Did he or was Darmian trying to distract him? He was offering Richards his hand to shake at another corner. Deliberate distraction? Or is that reading too much into it?
