I dislike Graham Souness very muchly.
Seems that the majority were in agreement with what I said about the first half. Pundits and journalists all pretty much said the same.I disagree.
The later half of the first half was edge of the seat stuff. Both teams were attacking and it was probably the best match I've seen in a long time.
If people did not enjoy that match, I honestly believe that football is perhaps not the sport for them.
Mariner was trying to do a ClattenburgFirst half wasn’t great. Second half was really good bar a 5-10min spell where the referee gave them everything.
It’s gotta to be thisThree man midfield.
Those are 2 are utterly dire and it amazes me how some MUFC fans were so desperate for us to keep them.Although playing against Rooney and Morgan really helped us. They were both dire to be kind. I got mad when Rooney was subbed cause him in midfield made it easy for us. Although no Sigurdson and weird subs from them too.
That's what we all want and we have seen it in patches that we are able to play. You want them to look like a cohesive unit and not on their heels on our own box.Why can’t we play like this more often. Heck bit of passing and movement and an intensity after the first 20 and we looked like an actual team.
An upgrade could definitely be made there, but in the 2nd half, Herrera seemed to figure it out.He’s been doing that for France and runs matches doing that. The problem with our team is Matic apart we don’t have another good CM to support him, allowing Pogs to do what he does best
Well said! Happy New Year to you too.That was really good, unexpectedly so after the downer of Southampton. I'm still concerned with the extent to which we rely on Pogba to give us any creativity but you have to be satisfied with a performance like that, he absolutely ran the show.
Props to Martial and Lingard for their superb finishes, to Shaw who is finally starting to look the part at LB and to the team generally for riding out that nasty 20 minutes or so in the second half. It's unrealistic to expect us to control games from start to finish, particularly away from home, but I'm delighted to see us come through adversity with flying colours today unlike in the previous three games.
A lovely positive way to start 2018, happy new year one and all.
I think Henry is a secret United fan.I dislike Graham Souness very muchly.
Good. Needs to get his sense of humour backHas anyone heard what Jose said again about that tight schedule? He said something like we don't have friends know the guy up stairs like some other do. Wow.
He's mates with Pogs....I think Henry is a secret United fan.
I wouldn't have Miki on the bench, even.Except Lindelof at RB, there is no obvious way to improve that team (from within our squad). Putting in Rashford or Mkhi for Martial/Lingard/Mata will disrupt the balance and understanding they have.
It's a good performance. The problem is that true contenders for titles and CL cannot afford to feel sorry for themselves for more than a few seconds in any game let alone for a whole game.That's more like it, they stopped feeling sorry for themselves and delivered
What's he saying? The pub I was in started playing INXS very loudly following full-time and I don't have sky sports at home.Sourness on Sky Sports is really pissed off that we've won. Ruined his New Year. Twat.
I noticed that every time Jose has post match interview, after they get back in studio, host says something sarcatic like: "He is happy with a win", this women 10 mins ago: "He is thrilled with 3 points".
What should he do? Dance Macarena!? Do Monty Python sketch?
It is constant yada yada about mood Mourinho is.
No wonder he is like that in front of the cameras.
Thought he was going to start talking about how he spent his Christmas and New Year.Big Sam loves a chat, doesn't he?
It was great to see. Who knows what was said to them but they were a different team today. Pogba and Lingard were swaggering about and Mata was acting like a cheeky wee rascal. Love it!That's more like it, they stopped feeling sorry for themselves and delivered
Stop with this Lukaku nonsenseMuch, much better. Good decision not to start Rashford. My only fear is what happens when Lukaku and Ibrahimovich are both fit again. Hope that Jose keeps faith with those that started tonight.
For me it's Pogba in the 3 man midfield more than anything. The attention he attracts and what he creates can't be replicated by anyone else on the squad. Just look at the Southampton game and how dire we looked.We look so much better with a 3 man midfield and Pogba playing in his proper position. TBH we looked better without Lukaku too
