Was having a bad game, looks exhausted. But he always manages to make things happen. It's insane how productive he is.

Absolute match winner.
Unreal player.
He could do with a rest though as we've got some big matches coming up. It would be a disaster for us if he gets a long term injury. Playing 3 intense matches in 6 days could come back to bite us, the same could be said for Rashford.
I would be tempted to start Pogba in Bruno's position against Villa and have Bruno on the bench, ready if needed.

Probably the best player in the league atm.
Incredible player. Fun to watch, so much class and so productive. A true leader.
We all know how many goals and assists he has but I’d be really interested to see how often he has produced the pass before the actual assist (pre-assist) since he arrived.

He is everything Pogba should have been.
Personally that pass he played should have been by Pogba. That sort of pass from the deep is Pogba specialty, but he only had one similar good pass to Rashford in the first half.
Bruno is inevitable. So glad Spurs didn't buy him that summer. Can you imagine him behind Kane and Son?
The best bit of business we have done in years. I used to envy players like KDB, Salah and Hazard and wondered when we were going to get a productive and class player. He is unreal.

I am thinking more about being a talisman, a leader, the driving force on a pitch whether you have a good game or not.
He is the best player in the league atm, and one of the top players in the world.

Fixed.
I thought Pogba’s specialty was those low slow chips over the defence, that the keeper catches or lets go out of play. Back to Bruno: What a player. KDB might be more elegant but I think I’d take Bruno. Think he’s more of a United player as well.
Best player we've had since Ronaldo and if he continues with the same form he's had since he signed for more seasons, he would also go down as one of our best ever

Rooney at 0.7 G/A per game is quite impressive considering how the end of his career went, and how many more games he played further away from goal in general.
I'd rest him in the game against Watford in the FA cup, we can't afford to not win against Villa as well as City in the SF afterwards.
Just watched his latest interview on the app. I can't believe he's 26? Just so calm but utterly determined. Can't believe we got so lucky with this leader. Not surprised at his stats, most of his interview was about constantly improving. Real team player as well. Truly impressive guy.
I dearly hope he wins trophies with us.

Really wish we hadn't gotten bounced already from the CL, think he'd have a genuine shout for next years Ballon D'or if we made a run on top of being in the title picture in the league
I saw Garth Crooks had him in his team of the week 15 times since he joined, seems in love with him.

To be fair it’s hard to argue against. He’s been one of the best players in the league virtually every week.
How is his average only 6.5? Just look at his stats, you guys are too strict!

Bruno is just really effective.
Like he's been here for a while now and it's sort of hard to really clearly describe his style of play. Rooney - blood and thunder, but also skillful in 1:1s. RVP - extremely high technique forward, great movement etc etc etc.
We haven't seen consistent long range howlers or crazy dribbles or amazing crosses etc etc. His throughballs and such aren't even of a mesmerizing quality like Messi's.
It's hard to really describe him to a neutral or a person who hasn't seen him play except that he's really, really productive.

Crazy crazy numbers. To think some were saying James was as good (if not better)...
He clearly has that in his locker, just hasnt shown it for us much at all.
David Silva/Gerrard Hybrid
Proper Manchester United player. I’m in love with him.
Incredible stats and incredible based on the eye test too when watching him play. His consistency and effectiveness is incredible and seeing that video shows a glimpse into his mindset.
Probably the leagues best player already.He’s certainly the best player we’ve had since Ronaldo and Rooney’s prime.

Most influential player we've had since RVP but he doesn't half give the ball away needlessly.
I expect he'll start the next two then be rested against Watford in the FA Cup. Hopefully we do well enough without him we won't need to bring him on at all (although I have no doubt he'll be telling Ole that he wants to come on
).
Man Utd 2:1 Aston Villa
We're at the point where no one is even commenting on his peformance, because it's just that consistent.
