When he's on, he's on, just like he can completely disappear in games. The shift to the middle has helped him tremendously in this game.
Cuz, thats his prime position. But he needs martial and someone classy on the wings, Rashford simply isnt good enough.

Eh he's not always been great in the number 10 position either. It always depends on the setup of the opponent as well. Leicester has generally been poor defensively and if you give an active player like Mkhitaryan that much space, he's gonna burn you.

these obvious moments of top class aren't that interesting. The small things he does even when most people emotionally call it shit (because there is no obvious) -that is a class!

great performance. Its outrageous that he was unused for so long. He worked hard to get back in the team and now is a mainstay.
But, probably, he should have got more than a goal today

Not really a stand out performance, but provide the crucial cutting edge.​

Very good, needed it as he's been quiet recently. I love a forward player with pace running through on goal.

A great game today. When he is on, we are on.

He's so smooth that it's very hard to handle.

Hopeless on Wednesday but excellent today. Our best number 10.

Keep a clean shit tomorrow, United is my final bus
Much better today. But our form seems to rely on him playing well now. Mata and Rashford aren't good enough to give us a lift on Mkhitaryans off days. Martial needs to get going desperately.

What i will say is that I'd like to see more cutting edge from Mkhitaryan against teams that are compact. That's what really sets apart the good from the great. This game was ideal for him.

Best 10 at the club.

We desperately need a fast tricky right winger to take some attention off him and give him some space. Mata is great but when he plays on the right they just get in each others way more often than not.

Saying that though when it works, they can score some lovely goals.

Got his finishing boots on today!

His performances have probably been the most consistent among all of our players in the last few games to be fair, i'm glad he got such a great goal
That ball glanced of the keepers thigh :D

MOTM today and an amazing player but it keeps baffling me how can a player have as sublime first touch, passing and control as he has, but so bad finishing :rolleyes:

He's better than Pogba. If you want a player to be the most advanced midfielder it's him over Pogba. He's better as a 10 than out wide too.

Don't think that's a slight on Pogba. One is 28 the other's 23.

Its going to take some run of form from someone for him not to get player of the season.

He's just a wonderful footballer. We're lucky to have him.

He is a very good player and for some reason i've started calling him little Mike.

He is obviously very talented. Now if he could add some consistency to his game he could easily be top 5 in the world.

I think it's just the type of player. Mkhitaryan has the pace the run past players and to turn nothing into something. Even if you have an amazing player who is able to dictate the game from deep it's quite natural to say the tricky, quick player who can also play the killer pass is better than him.

Excellent from Mkhi. He's great in the number 10 role when he can roam around the pitch.

What a reactionary post. Mkhitaryan has had his share of poor games just like Pogba had his fair share of outstanding games. Mkhitaryan is more mature in his game but then again the unpredictable is part of what makes Pogba great.
