[Lay]

Brilliant, brilliant player. Give him service and he's gold. He has flaws but when we actually pass and cross the ball well, he's an animal.

 

[AFC NimbleThumb]

Scored 2 today idgaf. Top CF performance.

 

[Woodzy]

Unless Kane or Haaland are a realistic option for us this summer then we do what we can to keep him and strengthen elsewhere in my opinion.

 

[Reiver]

Great performance and thank feck we signed him given how Martial's season has went. If he stayed I think we could go without signing another striker but no point keeping him if he wants to go home. Happy I got to see him in a Utd shirt even if it was just for one season.

 

[Godfather]

Man... If we have to replace him it will be hard to find someone with that work ethic

 

[Adam-Utd]

excellent today, 2nd half especially. beautiful header

 

[Jeppers7]

I’ve been critical of him but outstanding today

 

[Buffalo Bills]

Magnificent today

 

[VivaRonaldo85]

This performance came out of nowhere but today he showed himself to still be top class on his day. A proper old school centre forward with huge footballing intelligence. We need to extract everything we can from him before he goes back to South America.

 

[The Hilton]

Best game he's had for us, and it's not even close. Had done nothing recently but was clearly bang up for it today and it showed!

 

[ShinjiNinja26]

The movement for our first two goals (not the disallowed one) was just so good.

Yep. He’s one of the best in the world at it. I just wish we could have signed him when he was 5 years younger we would have been sorted up front for years.

 

[SeanyC]

Ah if only we could turn back time 5/6 years...brilliant performance

 

[Majima]

Sheesh. He was on flames today. Dier will need a lie down after that, he was absolutely bamboozled out there.

I struggle to think of anyone in the league with better movement than him in the box. He's absolutely incredible at it.

Vintage performance from El Matador.

 

[Adamsk7]

We should move heaven and earth for a second season and then beyond that a strikers coaching role. I love everything about him.

 

[KW2006]

MOM for me.

 

[kundalini]

Not seen that level of performance from Cavani since he won us the match away against Southampton. Fantastic diving header, had a goal harshly ruled out in the first half and his shot led to Fred scoring the rebound.

 

[A-man]

Man... If we have to replace him it will be hard to find someone with that work ethic

Yes the old man was still chasing the ball in the 88th minute when everybody else was exhausted.

 

[Godfather]

I hope he stays

 

[Jaxa]

Absolute warrior

Chased everything down, monster display

 

[Saddy]

Monster performance and don't forget the header in our own box preventing an easy headed goal if he didn't get his head on it

 

[city-puma]

Take a bow, Cavani!
I need really shut myself up!
Just a few days ago, I said here our play doesn’t suit him, and he is not a good match for us. Then, witnessed this game. I am so amateur and naive to think these elite pros can’t play differently the other days.

 

[TwoSheds]

Is there anyone in the world better at diving headers than Edi?

 

[roonster09]

Scored very good goal which was robbed off him, huge part is equaliser and a very good header for the winner. Proper 9 performance.

 

[Majima]

I hope he stays

This x10000. Can you imagine this performance in front of a packed Stetford End?

If he was in front of our fans, I bet he wouldn't want to leave.

 

[Matt851]

Guessing his performance today might have changed a few negative opinions on edi. Been poor the last couple of games but probably just needed time to get upto speed. Would probably be inclined to extend his contract unless we are confident we can sign haaland or a good alternative

 

[Godfather]

This x10000. Can you imagine this performance in front of a packed Stetford End?

If he was in front of our fans, I bet he wouldn't want to leave.

Man the stretty would have erupted. Such a shame.

 

[lost7]

Scored 2 great goals today, what a performance

 

[redshaw]

I think Cavani has been very important in us stepping up a level. He has a very strong mentality and great all round game.

If he goes in the summer we'll have to replace him with top quality.

 

[Walters_19_MuFc]

He was top class today. His link play, movement off the ball, which was topped off with a beautiful goal.

Super!

 

[Poborsky's hair]

Top lad and the best no7 we had since Ronaldo, half sad fact. He can hand it to Haaland at the end of next season. People also underestimate pressing abilities of strikers, unless you are messi or Ronaldo you really have to work hard off the ball. Incredible we put so much faith in lazy Martial, only after you see a semiretired proper no9 in action you see the difference.

 

[parkthebuslads]

Very disappointed they didn't show his archery celebration.

 

[Denis Irwinning]

We got what little he had to offer a few months ago. I’ll shed no tears when his contract isn’t renewed.

How about now?

 

[Bobcat]

Think he’s been awful lately, and then he did this?!! World class performance!

Ditto. I honestly though he was pretty bad in the first half overall, but his strikers instinct is still very much there.

 

[spiriticon]

That was the No.9 that we needed today

 

[kiristao]

A proper striker performance. Great anticipation and off the ball movement. Also worked his socks off as usual.

 

[city-puma]

Very disappointed they didn't show his archery celebration.

Right. What happened?

 

[predator]

Ole's past match interview for me suggests cavani has made his mind up due to being homesick and ideally wants to be back in South America.

However, no club in South America can pay him 250k a week so I wouldn't be surprised at all if we give him an offer he simply can't refuse.

 

[A-man]

Ditto. I honestly though he was pretty bad in the first half overall, but his strikers instinct is still very much there.

Yes he has the instincts and tonight he was on fire.

 

[acnumber9]

How about now?

I’ll still shed no tears. He had a very good game though.

 

[stevoc]

Much better today, hopefully he can keep this form up.
