People criticising Lingard's performance really just confirms that he just can't do right no matter what for some on here. Shame about Wilson, just want to see him through on goal that's where he's at his best.

Its like we're not playing with any striker. Wilson is not a very good prospect. All ive seen of his game is speed speed speed.
He's a donkey at this level. Never going to be United quality imo.

The lads have been in training all of a week, so it's hard to judge this. I would have liked to see more ambition though.

Mhkitarayan has been our best player. Possibly followed by Herrera. Thought I'd see more overlaps from full back, wasn't surprised to see Bailly tell Fosu-Mensah to get on his bike. We could smash these if we played with a little more speed.

Ander & Micky running the show but Memphis & Lingard both need to learn how to dribble past one defending player.

Positives for me are that Shaw is back and he's looking comfortable out there, and the two new signings look like they'll fit in just fine.

Not much point in giving Wilson anymore game time, he's no where near good enough.

It was a bit of a boring first half. But I imagine it will be better when we have all our first teamers back playing instead of Wilson and co

Good to see players getting into the swing of things. Shaw still looks like he's wary of crunching tackles, will be a while before the psychological effect of his horrific injury wears off, but good to see him getting a solid 45 minutes under his belt.

TFM should be trialled centrally, or as DMC. I don't believe he's a RB.

Mickey T has been the best player on the pitch.

The players are still lacking some match sharpness which is completely normal. Things will get better.

Really like the look of Micky. Bailly didn't look overly convincing, but it's early days and he should grow into it.

Herrera looks like he's got a bit of his confidence back at least. Depay is working a bit harder but still looks sloppy as feck.

Mhitaryan is the real deal. Wilson maybe not.

That's about it really. Oh, Bailly did a nice trick

I absolutely love these MUTV adverts. And by love, I mean strongly dislike.

Missed two good chances (Mhiki and Memphis).
Mhikitaryan looking great creatively, positive passing and attacking space while dribbling.
Bailly looked okay, pretty shaky on the ball but has grown into it a little.
Mou somewhat active on the touchline.
Good possession from us, somewhat probing with a few chances created but nothing on target.
Shaw looks to me like he's never been out, very good.

Fun first half. I actually thought everyone was playing quite well. We created some chances, missed some, and Wigan didn't do anything.

First 45min from a team that barely played together last year. The goals will come

Most players keeping the ball well. Bailly has looked solid and surprisingly skilful. Mkhi by far our best attacking outlet, although he missed a simple chance. Depay and Lingard have done okay with Wilson looking anonymous. If we had strikers, we'd have scored.

Bailly, Herrera, Lingard and Mkhi the 'standouts' so far. Want to see a bit more in attack from everyone in general though. Hoping Axel, Adnan and Keane get some minutes too.

Ander and Miki have been good. Everyone still looks stuck in the preseason slump.

Mkhi is already better at 10 than Rooney. Doesn't lose ball easily, fast, and creative.

Lots of possession but similar to LVG's reign, not much threat. Mkhi Looking sharp, Memhpis looking better than he did for most of last season which is encouraging. Bailly looks pretty good too.

Only concern is I think Shaw might not be over his injury Psychologically. Seems to be very cautious with his left leg, hope he gets crunched in a tackle to show him he can still take a hit tbh.

How bad is Depay!
Both him and Mkhi missed a sitter
