Rashford has had enough good games itself, no reason to trash the kid all the time.

Your wish is my command...
Awkward laughter at being asked if he's 'settled now.' I take that as a blatant 'I could have been playing weeks ago'.
"Pure class" says it all.
He's like Mata on steroids. Has a great eye for a pass and flicks, superb technique, intelligent movement, pacy and can dribble.
One of the most complete attackers I've ever seen.

Rashford Lingard and Mata behind Zlatan on the weekend
Needs to start imo. It has to be that front four except Mata in for Rooney.
His link up play with other players at times is outstanding, as if he's known them for years. We've got a serious player here if he can stay right.
That's actually a really good shout - he definitely lacks the explosiveness of Hazard but he has a similar litheness in terms of build and style.
I really don't want to get too excited as I think this is how we should be playing at home and its only the league cup. Why can't we do this in the league. We seem to play the same but not score as many. I really hope now Mkhi can get a start and be the turnkey for us and finish off what we have been missing thus far
Loves a pass from the outside of his foot, all weighted to perfection
Yep. I didn't realise how good his passing was. I mean I knew he could make a lot of assists but his overall passing game is impressive.
"You feel a lot more settled now in English football?"
"[awkward stare, then proceeds to smile it off] Eeeeehhh yes... I do...."
I interpret that response as "I haven't changed and wanted to play long ago but I'll pretend like not featuring the last couple of months has helped me to get used to the Prem"

No one is trashing him. He just doesn't deserve to start on the wing. Most his performances have been largely ineffective.
Seriously impressive performance from him. He injects pace, directness (hello one touch passing where have you been since 2013!) and unpredictability that we have sorely missed for years.
He's turned the corner, proved he can perform here, and will get lots more game time now. Excited to see more of him.

imo mourinho did handle him well. he was shit and the beginning and now after a few month he slowly gets his chances and he is taking them. hope he plays more often now but i'm sure he will
He barely played.
Hes played in a different team every time. Unfamiliar players will make anyone look unsettled.
He's starting to build an understanding with the usual players, Rooney, Ibra.
Itll come.
Some good praise from Mou, mentions how Mkhitaryan handled himself well against a PL team.
He could be what Di Maria promised to be without delivering here. A not that flashy version of a winger, but at the same time devoid of the limp element.
he was always good, even better. At the peak of his fitness. Mourinho sacked him to play later so he can claim he made the man better.lol
Superb, superb player. Far better than Lingard. I also think that now it's time to sell Memphis, he won't play anymore and is behind about 6 players in the pecking order on the wings.
I think he is the real deal boys.
I think I like him more now.
Surely he must get the nod for everton after that performance.
Absolute class. He picks the right pass in forward areas every time and put chances on a plate for his team mates. I can't ever see us struggling to score with him on the pitch for the full 90 minutes.
I just hope Jose now sticks with him and gives him a starting spot every week. If he is dropped for Everton Jose needs his head tested.

That I disagree with and it's a lot of hindsight at this point. We dominated games offensively and he contributed to it. That's all that matters. We didn't lack chances when he played on the wing, we simply didn't put them away. Win some of these games and people speak differently about him.
The attacking was phenomenal of course, but what I was really pleasantly surprised by was his interceptions and eagerness to win back the ball.
His defensive work was truly underrated today
What a player.
He had his best performance for us today. Very positive. I hope he can improve.
On the negative side, he was asleep at the middle of the park for the WH goal, which left Tony against two players. He has to improve on his defensive work.

If it wasnt for De Geas mistake that would never have gone in
more lik it from Micky
I like him a lot. Seems like a really intelligent player.
Very good performance and hopefully that's just a taste of what's to come from him
Still ... he was strolling in the middle of the park while Valencia was trying to cover two players.
I expect to him to elevate us to a different level from now on.
Having watched him play since his Shakhtar days, believe me guys, there's much more to come.

I'm still angry it's taking this long for him to be properly involved
He is ridiculously good. Hope it continues...
