Romero is a top keeper

Just in case anyone missed it. I don't like Mount.

Good professional performance. Shaw Motm, Ighaloo 2 good goals. Mata looks a new player when Bruno is on. Eric looks comfortable, calm and classy I’d say. Jesse tried....

Very happy with that, potential banana skin avoided.

Onwards and upwards.

Exactly the type of thing you want from your backup striker in Ighalo. Comes on and takes his chances to put the game out of reach. Good performance from him.

Overall, good game. 3rd gear for the final 20 mins and we were able to sub off important players for the weekend.

Mata was really good. Fernandes a bit off. Ighalo is a natural finisher.
But the level was low - both Lingard and Pereira looked fine.

Job done. Very good result, decent performance considering the changes. Delighted for Ighalo. Doing exactly what we need from him, fulling in during these games and scoring when he does play. Shaw was really good too!

So weird to see Rooney at a team like that. Seems his free kick taking has gotten lore consistent since he left!

Man i'd do anything for a prime Rooney in our team right now. Fair play to the away fans, best in the league. Derby weren't up to much but a decent performance.

Into the FA Cup quarter final for the 6th year in a row. A big improvement from last seasons embarrassing league cup exit at home to Derby

Ighalo 3 goals in 2 starts looking like a decent loan signing. Romero with another clean sheet which included two fine saves from Rooney free kicks.

Very good win. A bit sloppy at times but we showed our quality over the course of the game and deserved our win. Great games from Shaw and Ighalo, was also impressed with Mata. Not far off Wembley now!

7 out of 9 clean sheets since Burnley and on the 2 occasions we’ve conceded we’re massive howlers from Romero and De Gea.

thinks looking up it seems

I feel like we’re slowly eliminating the dross-type performances and replacing them for workmanlike ones. It’s only Derby, but we’ve all seen us lose that game a million times under LVG, Jose etc.
