Oles at the wheel!
I dunno. Looked a bit like he’d slid on his knees after the tackle, I’ve done that before and felt a twinge in my knee. I’m sure he’ll be fine.Think it looked like he was stretching some muscle, didn't look related to knee at all (and nothing from the clip suggested any knee issue). Probably just felt tight.
It's pretty normal that the people on our bench aren't as good as those that are in the starting XI.. Besides we were actually better in the first half then the second, so what more can you want?I don't trust our bench. Fred came last week and took the DM role fluidly, but Mctominay was so poor in providing himself as an option to our defence or coming deep to provide a three man defence. Even when Fred came on and moved into that role, he didnt provide a link in midfield for us in any approximation to Pogba.
8!Let's make it 5
Or maybe by the time they came on, we were in 2nd gear trying to conserve energy and see out the game. It's not like Villa did much as well.I don't trust our bench.

He did the post match interview, if he was injured for anything he'd be inside getting it checked out right away so it's all good.I dunno. Looked a bit like he’d slid on his knees after the tackle, I’ve done that before and felt a twinge in my knee. I’m sure he’ll be fine.
...kinkyIf Pogba is injured I'm going to off myself.
Think he was unlucky with the yellow card, looks like he got the ball first, but yeh, struggled to get in the game, and a few passes went astray. Probably needs to start a game soon.Slow start, large parts were scrappy but still won 3-0. Beautiful
On a side note and probably an unpopular opinion but please sell Fred while we can still get close to what we paid for him.
He's the type of player who needs a string of games to get his confidence up, not one who will give you his best from the bench. With Pogba and Matic looking like the main two now, he won't won't get that run of games.
He's come on tonight, made a few misplaced passes, got a yellow card and slowed our game right down with endless side passes.
