Well said by a proper supporter.We're 9 points behind Leicester now, still have them to play.
3rd is still on if we keep our shit together, keep Fernandes fit & get Pogba back on the pitch.
Won't complain if he gets a 93rd minute winner against City though!Felt like one of those performances that we took for granted under SAF towards the end of his tenure (circa 2009-2013). Many times we'd have gone in at 1-0 or 0-0 having been under pressure only to come out in the second half and make the scoreline more comfortable.
Watford set up well in the first half, targeted Fred wth pressing and none of our players, nor Ole reacted to it so he kept getting caught and we kept trying the same thing which was insane. Sorted it second half and we had much less trouble.
Struggled at times against a stubborn and confident Watford side but ultimately the scoreline told and certain players had great games. Bruno was mega, Shaw excellent and Dan James looks more comfortable on the left once he's told to stay out wide.
Hopefully Ole learnt from the first half performance and sets us up more like we did in the second.
McTominay back is a big boost and another clean sheet is great news too.
If Ighalo had scored, just like against Chelsea then it would've been the icing on the cake. I just hope he gets one sooner rather than later otherwise it'll remind me of signing Michael Owen and watching him miss chance after chance.
Pogba is a child who needs people to clean up his mess. Bruno is a grafter. Works so hard and is going to be the heartbeat of this team.Enjoyed the game. Bruno is changing the dynamic of this team entirely. I'm kind of hoping to see both Pogba and Bruno play together in our midfield soon.
I second this! The race for third is very much still on with a 6-point game to close the gap to go.We're 9 points behind Leicester now, still have them to play.

Could be, he definitely has his issues. Yet on his day Pogba is still one of the best midfielders in the world imo. Let's hope he can still step up somehow.Pogba is a child who needs people to clean up his mess. Bruno is a grafter. Works so hard and is going to be the heartbeat of this team.
If they play together it will only blunt Bruno.
Me too! I think we can still do it, bring Pogba on, let's win some games. Everton next and they're not easy but we have to go for the win!I second this! The race for third is very much still on with a 6-point game to close the gap to go.

Spot on mate. No idea why people say "we can't sign x player, we already have y player in that position". The best teams have depth in their squads and competition for places spurs everyone on.Agree with you that Shaw has really improved the last few games. Competition from Brandon has really spurred him on. We need that competition in all positions.
Pogba hasn't been one of our 'main men' at any stage of his time at our club.This.
Some want to make this about personalities rather than the team. Pogba will be vital in the run in. Champions league place to play for, FA and EL cups too. We’re going to need all our main men fighting fit
They're out trying to find the trophy Poch never won.Only into page 4 .... OleOUT mob obviously sulking in the General
Well said by a proper supporter.
Nothing wrong with optimism.
Revisionist nonsense.Pogba hasn't been one of our 'main men' at any stage of his time at our club.
Ya, right!Pogba hasn't been one of our 'main men' at any stage of his time at our club.
Please remind me a phase of a season that Pogba was one of our 'main men'. Honestly, aside from 3 games post Mourinho, I can't remember it.Revisionist nonsense.
There are some that can’t even enjoy a win without slagging off someone
And yet here I am denying it. OopsYa, right!
Our current points total has a lot to do with Pogba being injured for almost the whole period. Whether you like him or not, the quality he brings to our midfield is undeniable.
You’re entitled to your view and others entitled to disagree with it. Thanks for comingPlease remind me a phase of a season that Pogba was one of our 'main men'. Honestly, aside from 3 games post Mourinho, I can't remember it.
And yet here I am denying it. Oops
Interesting that he was sent on a different training programme (in Dubai I think) separate from the main squad during the break. We know he has fitness issues from the comments by previous managers. You have to think that Williams's performances have had an effect as well. He will also be thinking about the chances of being Gareth Southgate's plans for the Euros.Agreed, he looks much fitter, more positive and as a result looks a different player.
So you can't tell me a phase of games when Pogba was one of our 'main men'. No problem.You’re entitled to your view and others entitled to disagree with it. Thanks for coming
One of the stupidest posts in a while. Some people have genuine blind hate.Pogba is a child who needs people to clean up his mess. Bruno is a grafter. Works so hard and is going to be the heartbeat of this team.
If they play together it will only blunt Bruno.
He literally has always been since he got here. All you would have to do is watch any of our matches and see who the most influential attacking player in our team is. 9 times out of 10 its pogba.So you can't tell me a phase of games when Pogba was one of our 'main men'. No problem.
Also happy you're happy with your opinion
I can see why people are excited at the idea of Fernandes and Pogba playing together -if Pogba could ever be relied on to deliver the commitment to the team, which Fernandes already clearly seems to be doing with much more maturity and less ego, and he's only just arrived.Comfortable win. Got the correct score.
Enjoyable to see passes going forward. Bruno MoM. Very nice goals from Martial and Greenwood.
Shaw good match.
Other than the beginnings of both halves with the defence dwelling on the ball and giving soft possession to Watford was a fairly good performance.
Hope the cone on a string was directing traffic in the car park, never to be seen again.
Suspect not everyone is happy though, especially the most over-rated manager ever Fanboy Club.
Onwards and upwards, McT back and hopefully Pogba not too far away.
