Happy the fans at least got a nice goal from us.
THEY THOUGHT THEY BEAT THE MIGHTY MANCHESTER UNITED
Yes, indeed.
Please keep him in the squad for real this time, Erik. He is quality.
God bless Pellistri
Viva Pellistri
Long live Pellistri
C’est magnifique Pellistri

Harry 80m striker ??
Why are they wearing sports bras?
Pellistri deserves that.
Him and Sancho were living off scraps for most of the game, after that first 15 minutes.
Donny and Eriksen weren’t controlling that game in the first half, despite the amount of possession we had.
2nd half was scrappy, even when they were down to 10 and just defending.

I turned it off before the goal.
For the effort put in for the 90 plus minutes United deserved at least a draw. Credit to Maguire create the goal and was trying to do the same minutes before that, fine finish by Pellistri one lad certainly that should be used as impact sub more often this season.
And Amad and Mainoo.
Shame about the injuries.
Very sound body work from Pellistri to hold his ground and get in a good enough shape to apply the finish! Hopefully he can either kick on and get some minutes this year to challenge Sancho for the RW squad position, or go on a good loan.
At least we got a decent finish to the game.
If you're referring to me, I asked if he had crossed once all match. For a right back, he almost never crosses when he has the chance. He prefers to stop, and pass it.Who said AWB cant cross
When he decides to cross, he's pretty good at it, which is why I asked for him to do it.
Pellistri has got to get more chances. Such an exciting player to watch and really puts a shift in. Really hope it works out for him.
Wasn't it mentioned somewhere they are going to have a behind doors game this week as well?
The only thing holding Pellistri back is that he can’t be registered as a youth player this season.
He will take a squad place if he stays.

Tbh, Maguire probably an upgrade on Weghorst.
Apart from AWB, he should be first choice RB. It’s worrying that he’s playing in this match rather than Dalot.
Fair enough, just had 2-3 successive plays in which he was an obvious option and completely ignored.
All streaming channels died on me before I could see it.
Great crop of youngsters coming through, future looks bright
Great finish from Pellistri! Maguire with an excellent assist too. Pellistri is a pest and hard to play against with his low center of gravity, speed, and desire for running at his man. Plus, he finishes.
Can Machester United Score ? They always score
At least the fans got a goal after getting screwed over in so many ways by the club. On to the main thing now.
Yeah, Gore just needs a good Championship or 2nd tier league loan then phasing into squad next season with cup games and maybe a January 2025 PL loan for six months. Looks naturally technical enough and competitive enough to be at least a squad player after that and save us having to spend 40m or whatever to get someone external for that role.
Yep. He needs to get those minutes that Elanga had been getting the last couple of seasons now that he’s left. Unfortunately it might be tricky to find playing time for both him and Amad though.
There is a place in United’s first team for Hannibal ahead of Eriksen and Mctominnay.
Pellistri needs more chances to play.
He doesn’t give up, has a great engine, is skilful and can cause defenders all sorts of trouble.
He needs the experience now to push on.
A loan will be a wasted opportunity and a big mistake.
He was living off scraps for most of today’s match, with the weak central midfield we had.

I don't, if you were dumb enough to pay it then that says a lor about you!
Hint: doesn't apply to preseason friendly performances by definition.
I hate that Pellistri hardly gets a chance. He'd really push Anthony for a starting spot.
But look at his competition on both wings. Rashford, Garnacho, Antony, Amad, also Sancho could play there, and one suspension may also end.
This MUTV post game 'punditry' is fecking horrific. I'm not sure why I've still got it on...
Like a car crash. Can't look away.

Steady on there bud, it was a good finish but he didn't have a particularly great game, definitely not a career-defining one.
Then what happens with Amad? Everyone wants him to push Antony for that spot
Assist for Harry. Price is up again.
ow balls...stream died so I turned it off!
Glad United got the equalizer...far to many "professional fouls" from Bilbao all game...never like that tactic to win, especially in pre-season.

Pretty much why I turned over to the community shield game the moment the ref blew for FT. Certainly horrific.
