Really? You’re doubling down on stupid? Big call. Good luck with that.
Southampton 2:3 Man Utd
Feel for Greenwood. Did not deserve in any way to be hooked. Worked out in the end but could massively dent his confidence.
We desperately need to get him more minutes. Once he gets consistent starts again he’ll be fine, Cavani + Greenwood on form would be something. 
Looked most likely to score
Absolutely terrible performance. Wasted two huge chances that were ideal for him. Woeful shot wide from an angle with an open goal, then shot straight at the keeper after intercepting a poor pass from their keeper.
Wouldn't go as far as terrible. Thought his all round play was fine apart from his decision making. Rashford was equally as bad if not worse.
Going through a bad patch but this is what happens with young kids.
He'll get through it but it was the right decision to pull him off at HT.

Thinks it's going to be a while before he's back to his best. Hopefully the other attackers can pick up the slack.
Yet the most dangerous player on the field for us in the first half. Uncharacteristically poor finishing but he was unlucky to be removed.
The Caf hates criticising him but he was poor today and deserved to be taken off.
Probably needs to be dropped for a while now for Cavani. Having a tough second season.
Good chance to teach him a few things though.
Let’s be honest he’s being hung out to try by the team selections.
Looked like a young player who hasn't been getting regular games. I'll cut him some slack given the recent personal matter as well.
As a striker, the fact that he got into position for 2 excellent chances in 45' is great.
That he didn't finish them, I am fine to write it off on the lack of minutes.
Any criticism from United fans would be stupid.

What, so selecting him is to hang him out to dry?
I think he was just hooked be we needed a forward with experience and Greenwood is still really young.
Really happy to see him start, I don't think he'll start vs PSG sadly.
He wasn't terrible and the two chances he made for himself by good movement and reading of the defender's mistakes.
Of course, he should've done better once he was through on the goal but it happens to all strikers.

I don't think the first chance he missed was that bad. I think it was really overblown by commentary. I see Martial and Rashford consistently miss those chances without people commenting
Not great this season. I get that there's a lot on his plate at the moment but has to toughen up quickly.
Too selfish.
Rashford yes, but it was the kind of chance I'd expect Martial and Mason to normally put away. Martial is obviously struggling with his finishing this season and unfortunately it looks like Mason might be as well.
Hasn't really had chances really. His bad season has been mostly media speculation
He was terrible today. His two sitters he missed were unusually rubbish finishing. Honestly if we had lost, he would have been a big reason for that.
Absolutely love the kid and he's an exceptional talent and all but truth has to be said that's all.

He puts himself into a bad position after an excellent first touch, hesitates to take the shot.
That second attempt of his was an absolute disaster. If he looks up he'll see how badly positioned the goalkeeper is, but he just blindly hammers it and it goes the only place where the goalkeeper has a chance of saving it
If his finishing was on top as usual, we could have made the game easier. Those were shocking misses for him.
He was awful today. Not just the misses, but his touches were all over the place too.
Whatever the truth is about him off field the club needs to get it resolved.

Can't really disagree with you, but I'd say his partner up top was at least as bad if not even worse. Overall they were our only two poor players today.
People are being very harsh in here today. Only difference between his and Rashfords performance is Rashford was given 45 more minutes.
Fred or Matic deserved to go off at half time more than Greenwood.
It doesn't help when his minutes have been very inconsistent.

Something was off about him today. Maybe the aggressive play by Southampton got to him.
He’s playing alongside Rashford who can’t hold up the ball. Would be far better as part of a front three with Martial and/or Cavani. He isn’t currently capable of holding up the ball but he still carries a massive threat. Just hasn’t been involved in any of our best selections thus far this season.
He had his chances, as many as rashford and he might have scored one if he had played 90 mins.
Martial is often even quieter.
Would prefer rash-cavani-mason

he is just starting to play this season.. Give him a break
I know he hasn't played much this season but when he's on, it's just been a bit ...vacant.
Not really doing much on the right, not really getting into goal scoring positions either. He's sort of drifting along in midfield mostly.

Don't you think that is just down to how poor we have been most games?
Think about it, all of Rashford Greenwood and Martial have been poor this season.
Overall we just haven't got going. It's stop start stuff. New formation and new 11 every week.
Only difference today was he missed a couple of chances that he usually scores. Rest of his play was fine really. With Cavani on the bench and Ole not wanting to change the system it probably was a no brainer that he had to be the one to make way
He'll be fine. He was never going to keep up his scoring rate and is still a great finisher, but difference is he's also just getting more and better chances now. Doesn't help that our systems have been quite weird and not one of our attackers have been very consistent, points to a systemic problem for me.
Either way I think Cavani being here will help him loads. Neither Rashford nor Martial are long term strikers. Greenwood has that movement and knack to get among the chances. He can learn from Cavani and then after these 2 seasons that Cavani is here, become that main striker with Martial on the left and Rashford on the right.

Martial has been poor agreed. Rashford's been the same as last season, anonymous for 85 minutes each match but will probably end up with 20 goals and 10 assists anyway.
Greenwood, eh, I just expect a bit more because I've seen what he can do. Of course it's still early in the season and things will change.
Martial was ill and Ole said he needed a game, we was 2 nil down by half time we needed a 9, while I believed he will be a 9 (Greenwood) he does like to come in from the right side to unleashed rockets.
He's also not been fit and gone through personal issues.
