Really enjoyable game. We played very well, especially that first half. As always the lack of goals is a concern when you create so many chances especially as we won't have is as easy as that possibly for the rest of the season.

The Rashford injury is a massive concern though. Even if it's only a 2 week injury, that rules him out of some huge games for us.

Good team performance today. Think Bruno, AWB and Sabitzer were all very consistent and all 8 out of 10 performances for me.

 

[Tincanalley]

I guess only Casemiro gets a red for challenges like garner on AWB

Yes: forgot about that

 

[Tincanalley]

Easy. Should have won by a lot more. We are fecked without Rashford, though.

This match was the point at which ETH solved the absence of Casemiro. Maybe Martial can step in for the next game.

 

[Tincanalley]

I gave Scott MOTM but have no quibbles with giving it to Bruno who was immense

 

[Oscar Bonavena]

Good performance. A lot more comfortable than I thought it would be against a Sean Dyche team battling relegation, but with the score only 1-0 for so long, I had nightmares of them scrambling an equaliser out of nothing!

We're so far behind on GD I wasn't too bothered about winning by 4 or 5, but with the chances we had we should've been at least 3 up and cruising!

Hope Marcus' injury isn't too serious. That'd be just our luck, get Eriksen back from injury then lose our top scorer!

 

[Blood Mage]

Good win but Rashford potentially being out for a while fecks our top 4 chances.

Good result and performance, hopefully Martial stays fit while Rashy is out.

Everton look like a side about to be relegated.

Great start to a Saturday: Entertaining football and 3 points. It's too bad it took ETH a month to discover this midfield trio (Bruno, McT and Sabi) in Casemiro and Ericksen's absenses, but better late than never.

So many good performances. The only slight weakness was Sancho and Antony. I was surprised Antony came off first, though, thought Sancho was the weaker of the two.

Another win vs NF and some good results could see us cruising to top 4 which would allow us to concentrate on more trophies.

Hope Rashford is just a week-long injury.

 

[Eric_the_Red99]

Good performance and win, but we really should have run up a cricket score.

I realise Everton’s defending and goalkeeping wasn’t really anything more than competent, and we were very wasteful in front of goal, but you just know that if they’d come under that much pressure playing against their ‘bitter rivals’ Liverpool (Agatha_wink.gif) they probably would have contrived to score three own goals.

Should have been 4-0 at the half.

 

[IRN-BRUno]

Very good performance, especially the 1st half. Just need to be more clinical, the game should have been done by HT with the chances we created.

Hopefully Marcus will be okay, if he does have to miss a few games at least it comes at a time when Martial is fit and Eriksen & Casemiro are returning.

 

[Oranges038]

Excellent overall performance.

First half should really have been out of sight second got a bit nervy at times until the second goal.

Bruno was brilliant in midfield once again.

Motm for me anyway.

 

[Escobar]

Good team performance today. Think Bruno, AWB and Sabitzer were all very consistent and all 8 out of 10 performances for me.

Savitzer was hot and cold for me. Some good momenta but also quiet periods where he needed to deliver more in that position imo

 

[Ian Reus]

Decent win.

With Casemiro back next match, I'd play mctominay up front if rashford is out for long.

 

[Martin(6)Buchan]

Good performance today, just lacking that killer touch infront of goal. Shame it was spoilt with the Rashford injury and hoping it is not to serious but knowing our luck. Problem being is yes we have a replacement in Martial but no guarantee he can stay fit long enough.

 

[Jeffthered]

The perfect game as Everton were v poor, and we looked to capitalise... a welcome run after a tough Brentford game. Six points in a week v v welcome and the return of Ericksen.

But, Rashford is a worry, of course.

 

[Robertd0803]

Get in there.

Had a nasty feeling Everton would grind out a result given the mockery Ive sent their way this season but thankfully not.

Could do without Rashford getting injured though.

 

[Siorac]

Richly deserved win with an overall excellent performance.

But fecking hell it annoys me that we can't have a perfect afternoon. No, if everything else goes well, Eriksen returns and even Martial scores, then Rashford must get injured. It's just the law, apparently.

 

[lex talionis]

Bruno MOTM, but very good performances throughout the squad.

Finishing aside, Antony was en fuego. Sancho, excellent. A day at the races and I’ll always take a 2-0 win but it should have been closer to 4-0.

 

[Dominos]

That's the best attacking performance we've seen in a long time. Shame our finishing was so bad, we really do make things unnecessarily difficult for ourselves.

Great win and top performance. Other than the constant, free-flowing, attacking football, I loved how we had the mentality to battle through the fatigue and wrestle the control of the game back from Everton after they had their little spell from around 50-65 minutes. Today ticked every single box other than finishing - we should have won by a minimum of 6, missing 7 big chances isn’t acceptable. Otherwise though, absolutely zero criticism. Delighted with the team, that they were able to comfortably win despite this being their 3rd game in 7 days.

Special praise for De Gea and Harry Maguire as well. Both have been criticised heavily this season, sometimes unfairly, and played magnificently today, especially the latter.

 

[AndySmith1990]

Good performance. We just need to be more clinical (by signing a great striker) and we'd be thrashing trash teams like Everton

 

[Strelok]

Another solid home win. Should have won at least 5-0 if our finishing was a bit better. Very good performance imo. Bruno should be MOTM.

 

[RuudTom83]

Most clean sheets in the league now (I think) which it more proof the team has improved a lot this season...its just when United lose they usually take a real beating.

 

[manichester]

Bruno outstanding, McT, very good and Sabitzer played well. Surely won't be long before we stick chances we create away.

 

[pogbasformerbarber]

Good win but Rashford potentially being out for a while fecks our top 4 chances.

We currently have an 80% chance for top 4...I think we'l be fine...

[Natener]

A lot better than the last two games when we kept fecking the ball about in our half. Bruno especially was immense at releasing the ball towards our attacking players. Had enough good chances to be at least a 4-0 game if not more, but I'll take this. Bring on Sevilla!

 

[SilentWitness]

Game raising cnuts.

[RedDevilRoshi]

Just watched the game. 1st half in total control and if it wasn’t for Pickford having a good game, we could have been well out of sight.

2nd half, a bit under the cosh but never felt like we were going to concede. Just hope Rashford is ok. He’s the last player we need injured!

Overall, very happy with that performance and result.

Bruno MOTM with McTominay a close 2nd.

 

[Hughie77]

Probably the best 45mins this season, game should have been out of sight. Glad Eriksen had 15mins, Martial scores that's a plus. Fecking Coleman done my head in fell down nearly everytime he got touched poetic justice he lost the ball for Martial goal. Need Rashford now to not be out for a while?

 

[Giggsy13]

This game really sums up our season. High performance level but not clinical enough and then piss poor luck with injuries. We just can’t seem to get everyone healthy at the same time. Thankfully our first choice midfield is available but it’s going to be a continued and possibly greater struggle to score goals without Rashford.

 

[AlPistacho]

Excellent football. Should have scored more, but can’t moan after last few previous games.

Some right fecking complainers on here need to get a grip if they aren’t taking positives from that.

A solid & positive build on the Brentford match which set the fundamentals.

 

[Lemoor]

Game raising cnuts.

 

[Tincanalley]

How about that for Redemption Day? McT played out of his skin, and scored… Harry played great. De Gea was excellent and seems to have adapted his game. Overall very good show by everyone.

 

[Belisarius]

Most clean sheets in the league now (I think) which it more proof the team has improved a lot this season...its just when United lose they usually take a real beating.

Varane, Shaw and Casemiro not playing and Bruno playing as defensive midfielder and we still get a clean sheet. I would have thought that very unlikely a few months back. The team seems so much more organized at the back than we used to be.
