Was a fun game to watch. The last 60 odd minutes anyway.
and three potentially tricky away games coming up (though I expect us to destroy Arsenal on the counter to be honest).48 hours until burnley away.
+1Best performance in a long while. Still hungry for goals even after 4
Pereira looked rubbish, which is what he is. Him and Lingard should be gone as soon as we can get rid of them. They are not even mid-table team level. Newcastle wouldn't swap brothers Longstaff for Lingard/Pereira, and Newcastle is solidly a mid-table team, at best.Good win, Martial was gold, even Pereira looks decent
Newcastle made a terrible mistake deciding to go for the kill after 0-1. We're Utd ffs.
Spot on. Fred is an absolute workhorse and keeps things going both ways. Right now, probably my player of the year unless Martial or Rashford start racking up more goals for wins.As abysmal as we were against Watford, we were fantastic against Newcastle this afternoon. The first 20 minutes were very poor but as soon as we clicked into gear we ripped them apart.
Martial will get Motm but I thought Fred was faultless in the middle.
Just hope we don’t revert to complacency against Burnley.
Did you even watch the match or did you see the score line and decide that we took the pedal off the gas? We were putting un anything but minimal effort in today’s game. We were going for it till the last minute and that was a fact which even the commentators acknowledged. Some people need to find something or the the other to moan about i guess.We put in the minimum effort possible in every game. It’s why we don’t seem to bother trying in a lot of games until we’re losing with 10 minutes to go. Not that I want to be negative about the performance today but I do wish we’d go for the jugular in these games. Newcastle were there for the taking but once we made it four we conserved energy.
Rashford has already surpassed Nani's EPL recordSpot on. Fred is an absolute workhorse and keeps things going both ways. Right now, probably my player of the year unless Martial or Rashford start racking up more goals for wins.
Left back and couple CMs would be our priority, indeed. We need much more depth as well, however, if we are to compete for anything beyond top 4 spot. Keep in mind - this year is a pretty weak EPL, with a lot of top teams rebuilding and a lot of teams dropping points. In a more competitive season, a no-depth squad like ours would have no chance.Great performance, game closed out early and hopefully fresh for Saturday.
We’re a left back and a CM away from been very decent.
I have much doubts about Lindelof too but I think Tuanzebe could come in there.
Nani was never a striker though, check out his assist stats.Rashford has already surpassed Nani's EPL record
Nani: 147 apps, 26 goals
Rashy: 130 apps, 38 goals.
And Rashford is having his best season, by far. He's on his way.
First 20' Newcastle played with a really low defensive line, tried to park the bus and quick counter. The plan was very successfull. We sucked at both attack and defend as usual.Why does it take them 20 minutes and a goal before they can play some good stuff? After we equalised, it became mush better and the second half was like a training session. Greenwood is gold and we must keep him. Don’t know where Harland will play if we get him.
Attack early, attack fearlessly. Don't be afraid of opening-up and being vulnerable on counters. If we concede a goal, we should score 4 more.This is the way we should be putting away all the teams we should be putting away like this.
Fair pointNani was never a striker though, check out his assist stats.
Very strange comparison.Rashford has already surpassed Nani's EPL record
Nani: 147 apps, 26 goals
Rashy: 130 apps, 38 goals.
And Rashford is having his best season, by far. He's on his way.
I must disagree with this.Pereira looked rubbish, which is what he is. Him and Lingard should be gone as soon as we can get rid of them. They are not even mid-table team level. Newcastle wouldn't swap brothers Longstaff for Lingard/Pereira, and Newcastle is solidly a mid-table team, at best.
