Good result. We finally seem to have put in a good performance in the league.

Going down to Sheffield United twice is still inexcusable, but other than that I have few complaints.

Apart from a silly error from Onana and a period of like 5-10mins, complete control and should have scored a lot more. Garnacho I am looking at you.

If you want to shit on the team because it's bottom of the league, it's just weird. We'll take whatever points we can get our grubby hands on right now.

Bruno looked good. Glad Rasmus got a goal.

That situation where the ref blew for a penalty but the ball ended up in the net was a bit chaotic. What would have happened in a situation like that if VAR had reviewed the decision and decided it was not a penalty? I mean, for the good of avoiding the backlash and controversy I can't see any VAR team ever making that call in that situation, but you never know

We should have scored more, very wasteful in attacking areas and poor finishing when we did get shots away.

Our trademark vulnerability on show too, a gifted goal and lazy defending from Eriksen & AWB for their 2nd.

Amazing performance. We're truly lucky to have Ten Hag leading us to famous wins against elite opposition at Old Trafford

Amazing how much better it is with 11 players and no passengers

Decent win in the end. A terrible individual mistake and some worrying defending but we could’ve easily scored 6 or 7. Not one to be too concerned about.

A win with 4 goals scored a rare sight this season and while some will say it's was only Sheffield United lets not forget bottom of the table Sheffield United won in Old Trafford against what was 2nd place Man United team on their last visit to Old Trafford.

who do you feckin think ?
Good win with an even more threadbare than usual line up, even better with Newcastle losing and Liverpools Utd induced implosion continuing. Bruno great and Maguire is quietly having a solid season.

Nice to see a game without Rashford.

Now with Antony playing garbage and Amad playing well. You have to hope Amad starts the next game with Garnacho and Hojlund upfront.

Casemiro was top at the back, breaking the lines with passes.

Totally dominated that shower of shite and still managed to make hard work of it. Bruno was brilliant, Antony was Antony, Garnacho was decent, Mainoo was quiet but kept it ticking over nicely in midfield. Maguire was solid enough.



Brereton Diaz looks a handful, could be worth a punt as a backup striker.

Bruno Garnacho Maguire excellent.

Can't believe we beat a team that is essentially relegated at home!

Feck me standards have slipped.

I tell you one thing for certain our games are always entertaining lately. Sucks for us most of the time but if your a neutral fan looking for a match to watch if your team isn't playing you'd definitely pick our one!

About time we put in a decent performance. Bruno was class and having Garnacho instead of Rashford makes a big difference

Weird feeling, relieved we won but it all feels shallow. Perhaps because you just know the next embarrassment is around the corner
