3 away wins!

I would love to see Pogba ahead of Fred and McT. Free him to play at 10 with Martial, Rashford and James ahead of himHe was very good at weekend too
That would frankly be terrible IMO. He’ll be playing the Fred role alongside McTominay as he’s terrible at pressing which is crucial for our 10.I would love to see Pogba ahead of Fred and McT. Free him to play at 10 with Martial, Rashford and James ahead of him
He's not terrible at pressing, he was getting man marked and we could not stop losing the ball and not getting it back. Now if Fred and Scott can handle that part even when Pogba lose the ball, Pogba will find some moments of brilliance. Also, Martial doing the hold up play well is going to help tremendously in that regard. I think that could work again.That would frankly be terrible IMO.

I was replying to the overreaction. By saying "i didn't think he was that good" it was referred to the OP's talk about how great he was and that he should be our starting LB over Shaw and Young. I thought he had a decent game, but not great. Like I said, he seems to back up too much when being dribbled at 1 v 1 (not talking about double teams). At some point you have to pressure your winger and not back up all the way into the 18...He was being doubled up on by Reece James and Hudson Adoi who are very lively players; even experienced players would of struggled in that situation, yet he still held his own! Give him a break!
February 1998 apparently,that was game where Phil Neville scored and some bookie stupidly paid out on us winning the league.When was the last time we won at Stamford Bridge twice in a row?
I don't think it's that big a deal. Our pressing regardless isn't effective like Pep's or Klopp's pressing is. It's not coordinated enough for it to be a concern on an individual basis.I meant Pogba is terrible at pressing compared to Pereira or Lingard.
I didn't watch the match but this sounds so impossible. According to the caf he's tactically total ineptTactically Ole got it spot on for me. A much better team first half and although Chelsea took the game to us for the first 15-20 of the 2nd, Ole changed it and it turned around again.
I enjoyed it but can’t really say there was evidence of progress or really feel we’ve turned a corner.Ah come on now.
We just won away at Chelsea, that's about as hard as it gets for a Utd manager.
Surely you have to enjoy that?

You have to go back to the early 60s when beating Chelsea was routine, but the fact is that Chelsea were always something of a bogey-team for us. No matter how poor they were, they always did well against us.I'm so old I remember the times when beating them was routine, AND when getting beaten by them was routine.
You do mate - well done! But you have to share it with me tooDo I get a cookie for predicting the correct scoreline?
Also well done rashford and mctominay. Good performance all round. Only negatives was the maguire moment and Rojo's clearances all game.
Rashford at the age of 22 has 52 goals - Welbeck who turns 29 next month - has scored a total of 70 goals in his career. So comparing the 2 might be a bit harsh on Rashford.Rashford - maybe I was harsh when I called him Danny Welbeck 2.0. On his greatest day, Welbeck could never hit a free kick like that. Furthermore, if you just watch Rashford highlights, Welbeck could never do half the things that Rashford can. But Rashford will probably never score 25 goals in a season. God, I hope he does, but he needs to be part of a front 2 or 3 and have world class midfielders giving him service. We just don’t have those types of players right now. What a goal.
It's strange how he gets it tactically spot on against Leicester, Chelsea and Liverpool - clubs with 3 of the most praised managers in the League - and he still is a fool, incompetent and a clown.I didn't watch the match but this sounds so impossible.

What? The guy gave the ball away countless times and ran around like a headless chicken.Fred was excellent today. He and McTominay have developed an understanding.
Lingard couldn't press my trousersI meant Pogba is terrible at pressing compared to Pereira or Lingard.
They still started with Jorginho and Kovacic;decent midfield. Batshuayi is a good forward,their back line was very experienced.It was good enough to beat us but they didn'tGuys you do know we played Chelsea's reserve side?
Hahahaha hahahaha gotta love this type of bravado after beating Chelsea's second string team in the fecking League cup! How standards have fallen!I just want to extend a 1 finger salute to the 50% of the so-called "supporters" that picked us to lose. These are the same doom and gloom idiots that constantly moan and put down our manager and players.
"You are out of your depth". Go support Liverpool or whatever team is the flavour of the month these days.
He's terrible every time he plays deep though.That would frankly be terrible IMO. He’ll be playing the Fred role alongside McTominay as he’s terrible at pressing which is crucial for our 10.
It’s a bit harsh isn’t it.Guys you do know we played Chelsea's reserve side?
I mean, you're not proving him wrong are you? As you - a supposed United supporter - gloat about it being a lucky win against poor opponents so you can happily go on hating your own team.Hahahaha hahahaha gotta love this type of bravado after beating Chelsea's second string team in the fecking League cup!

Take that win though, I'm hoping for an easy draw so we don't need to have first team mainstays (Rashford, Maguire) picking up knocks in a pointless midweek cup game.
Chelsea made 6 changes to their starting team from their last Premier league game compared to 4 changes for United. Let's not exaggerate or downplay what was a fine win in Stamford bridge against the odds.Guys you do know we played Chelsea's reserve side?
I think he does which explains the reluctance to go for headers
