This guy is a real beast. Great signing for our defense and will be better and better when gaining more experience.

Fantastic performance.

Didn't put a foot wrong and even gave gray a kick knowing he was offside :smirk:

He's class. First season, 23 years old, doesn't speak the language and he's bossed it.

Superb today. Thought Pogba was MOM but Bailey and Martial were not far behind him. Special mention to Herrera and Fellaini also.

Would have been my MOTM if Martial didnt get a goal + assist in a 2-0 win. Bailly was awesome. First season too and very young, how good will he become?

Beast of a player. Not only he is a great CB but he also very good player with the ball.

As previous posters have said...MOTM and a Vidic-like level of performance today. He is just massive back there and has it all to become a world class CB. If Jose is able to unearth another signing or two like him in the off season we should be challenging for the league title next year.

It's so rare I see a center back who is so fun to watch. Defensively a no nonsense guy but on the ball he's positive and not afraid to stay on the ball to make a forward pass, rather than hoofing it to the stands or constantly passing it to the goalkeeper.

What a man.

Up there with the best of his form pre-injury/AFCON. Fantastic, natural defender. So much desire to win the ball, Vidic like.

Fantastic.

Look forward to him and Rojo getting a good run together next season (barring any sort of injury happening).

That was an impressive performance. So many dangerous crosses cut-out by Bailly.

One of theacw performances of the season just there. Utterly superb. 0 shots on target from the opposition in no small part to him.
Is that true? Seriously impressive to have achieved that in 2 straight epl games.

What a signing he's turning out to be. Full marks to Mourinho or whoever else scouted him and decided he was a United player, he wasn't a player many were talking about before we got him but he absolutely seems to be the right one

He simply makes defending look fun, perhaps my fav United player atm.
