Oh my god. Bruno fecking Fernandez. What a signing. What a player. What a leader. What a guy. Love him, deserves to be playing infront of crowds.

 

[Stacks]

Long range penalty from Bruno

 

[Godfather]

Greenwood's been great both these games without any end product. Linking up play and being a threat on the right.

Agreed. Good to see him back with some confidence again

 

[Dec9003]

Hopefully Pogba is okay, he was playing well. A really good half from us though, slow ten minutes but some great football after that. Bruno’s goal was outrageous. I feel that we tend to start second halves poorly, so I hope we start well and try to keep the tempo we had in the first half.

 

[GledTheRed]

Yeah..imo of course. Great one on one defender, but poor to average at most other parts of the game.

He's been way better at other aspects of late, strange to call him out now.

 

[pratyush_utd]

AWB needs to be told what offside line is.

 

[UDontMessWith24]

People won’t get it through their thick skulls that while Fred may not be a goal threat from midfield hes a proper footballer. You can’t be Ashley Westwood and make Brazil’s World Cup squad.

 

[ClaytonBlackmoorLeftPeg]

First thought I had too, was Beckham like... Different goal though came to mind - the equaliser vs Tottenham in 99’.

Can see the comparison.

 

[Redlyn]

Why not VDB instead of Fred?

Because we actually want to win the game.

 

[BFernandes]

Has anyone else noticed the slight tactical shift from us in the last couple of games?

We seem to be willing to cross it from that little pocket of space just outside the box a lot more recently. We did it with Rashford assisting Cavani tonight, and Shaw to Cavani against Southampton.

It's a really good way of forcing the opposition defence on the move, out of their shape and facing their own goal.

Just an observation.

 

[city-puma]

Bruno’s strike. Take a bow!

 

[DickDastardly]

No fecking around in the second half. They definitely have a goal in them.

Yep. Concentrate and defend well.

 

[AJ Bullet]

Bruno player of the season and it aint even close.

 

[stu_1992]

Great half. Apart from the opening 15 minutes, we've been absolutely in control. Absolutely delighted we got the second goal to put us firmly in control. And what a goal it was. Fecking hell. I'm still not quite sure how he scored it. But I was in awe. And Cavani with another header, I feel like he exclusively scores those at this point! Thankfully Everton missed that chance right after our second goal or I would be sitting there far less confident than I am.

Shame about the Pogba injury. Seems a muscle injury so could be a few weeks. Disappointing considering his form. Only downside of that half really.

His crossing is decent. His energy is up the roof. He really learn something from Cavani.

 

[BusbyMalone]

This makes the pathetic Sheffield loss all the more infuriating.

Don't stew on it mate, you'll drive yourself mad!

 

[hubbuh]

He's been way better at other aspects of late, strange to call him out now.

It's not tbf, he made some big mistakes in that half. Much better going forward again though.

It's a really good way of moving and opening up space from packed defences where there wouldn't normally be much space to operate.

Just an observation.

So refreshing to see us put in really good crosses and play with more width.

 

[Red00012]

Absolutely delighted Greenwood is on it tonight .

 

[Random Task]

We’re playing better than we have all season. The SU and Arsenal games have given us the jolt we needed.

Dare I say it: Fergie-esque?

Each time we've lost this season, we've come back stronger in the follow-up game.

Yep!! Spot on, we’re crossing it so much more.

Hahaha superb response.

There's the Cantona goal

Probably an attempted cross according to a couple of message boards that shall remain nameless.

The difference been they know Cavani is in there whereas Martial is probably looking for it outside the box

 

[Pexbo]

James walking on the field then absolutely freezing his arse off

He’s not built for the north of England.

 

[SuperiorXI]

The Bruno goal was fecking marvellous folks

 

[Handré1990]

If we win today, our Home record is third in the league, and 1 away.

https://www.soccerstats.com/homeaway.asp?league=england

We had a really terrible start, whereas we've had an away form that mathces City's home form.

Everton has won the last 5 out of 6 away games in the league so they're already on a really good run of form. Its nice to see the boys dominate a traditionally hard game, especially on a day like this.

I’m with you buddy. Was just saying to my mate here how this is an unfamiliar feeling. We’ve pressed really well all over, and dominated Everton. No two ways about it.

 

[mu4c_20le]

Absolutely delighted Greenwood is on it tonight .

Pics?

 

[United Hobbit]

No fecking around in the second half. They definitely have a goal in them.

They definitely do.

Don't want any nerve wracking clinging on for 20 minutes to a 2-1 lead please

Keep up the intensity

 

[city-puma]

The pogba-McT pair started slow, but once we grab the first goal. They became very solid partnership. Pity we can’t see more because pogba had muscle injury.

[Murder on Zidane's Floor]

I swear this guy could win us the fecking league. My word.

Absolutely delighted Greenwood is on it tonight .

Definitely. Sharpest he’s looked this season, although he’s been building up to it for quite a few games now.

We really are one big fecking family!!

Does he comment on Arsenal?

 

[Mr. Ant]

It's funny that bruno has probably not been as good in the past month or so by his high standards and yet he's is still consistently either scoring or making the assist during this period, what happens if he picks his form up again...

I wouldn't say he is out of form. Pogba is in form as is Shaw so we don't have to rely as much on Bruno as we used to. I'd say that's good.

 

[manichester]

Bruno quality, Cavani work rate and finishing.

Rewound the tape on MOTD for that one a lot back in the day.
