Said it before but his decision making can be terrible for a guy of his ability.

He's a strange player, at times he links up with the team well but seems very individualistic the rest of the time.

It's a problem with the majority of our attackers. They don't look to link up together and as a result don't make runs off the ball, it's a vicious circle.

We have seen the best and worst of him in one half. Some excellent moments but some really poor play also.

He doesn't have low centre of gravity that's for sure. Like fecking bambi at times. Still a good player mind when he gets going. Usually takes him a while.

He seems to have days when he's on it and days when he isn't. Today is the latter :(

I'd be tempted to get Mata on at half time if I were Jose.

I don't think he did too much wrong in the 1v1, could have lifted it or taken it earlier but it's good keeping.

That said his touch and passing has been terrible.

Getting bullied by their captain. And should have finished. He has to do much better next season he's not a young player.

Should have done better, that was standard shooting at goal and hopefully it goes in. Far too central, lob him or shoot high ffs

I am pretty sure majority of top players would have scored that, and no one would be talking about good keeping.

His dribbling, which was quite impressive when he first broke into the team, has gone completely to shit. Can't beat a man to save his life.

If you put a YouTube highlights reel together of him at united he'd probably look amazing.

Sadly, reality is he's inconsistent and makes poor decisions on a consistent basis. I'd say get rid whilst we can probably still recoup a decent amount of the money we paid for him.

His play is loose.. takes far too much time on the ball, and gets caught in possession far, far too easily. Needs to stop floating around and dig in. His ability will shine, but he is far too sloppy right now.

Hiding again. I'd be delighted if we got £27 million for him this summer.

Flashes of brilliance this season but far too often under par and has been awful many times, including today. Hope he picks it up.

Does anyone else feel this happened..

He started poorly, Jose slowly brought him back in and he put together a few good performances. At this point everyone started applauding Jose and saying Mkhitaryan was now firing on all cylinders for United. Probably fair at the time..

Then Mkhitaryan's performances quickly began to worsen and with the exemption of a few Europa league performances, he just hasn't been good at all but people kind of just never stopped saying Jose brought him in and that he has been great ever since. Like it's a habit to say it.
