Very weird game that. Didn't feel like a PL fixture at all.

Very poor from Herrera and extremly gutted for DDG. Not going to blame him if he wants to leave.

Martial/Rashford/CBB all very good. Rooney/Valencia also had a decent one.

0 amount of emotion :( dead inside

Bloody typical of United 15/16 season.Had enough ball to score 6 or 7, had some excellent performers and give away a bloody comical goal that our opponents and our keeper didn't deserve.

Well that was mildly entertaining at times.

Martial is so good. Like, ridiculously good. Rashford is coming along nicely and is CBJ. Rooney and Carrick put in good shifts which is promising for the weekend.

The second half was like a training exercise, flat and dreary game, a fitting end(hopefully) to LvG's reign of boredom.

Was going to do wonders for my Fantasy Football team until Smalling gimped me over.

Beyond that it was pretty pointless.

Bournemouth were on the beach tonight, one better than the one in Bournemouth as well. We did well to break down a team camped on the edge of their box.

Harsh to concede, could've scored more. Niceish end to the premiership. Let's go and win the cup and look forwards now.

Also on the players... Martial and Mata were class together and showed really promise for the future. Rashford was class with his runs, great finish, and as always had great touches. Rooney was motm (though I clicked rashford on accident), but he was brilliant all around. Goal, assist, plenty of quality passes and ran the game. Young did well when he got subbed on, pleased for him to get the goal. No idea where he has been all season unless he just got a huge injury that we just weren't sure about.

All 3 goals were good. Some nice movement at times.

I would play that team against Palace in the final. The weak spot for me again was Lingard. If we had a right winger who could do what Martial does we would have some real threat.

Be interesting who replaces Carrick next year. Still feel Blind may take that role when we get a new CB.

Dave looked pissed off, hanged back from the team while they walked around the pitch. Make what you want of it but not a good sign....

He was clearly pissed off at conceding and not getting to share the Golden Glove award with Cech.

Post Sir Alex United he was saying I think. He's not wrong... Van Persie, Rooney, Falcao... Welbeck and Hernandez. All of them been pretty poor when they played apart from Rooney under Moyes.

Good solid win. Poor first half ,better second half and secured another go at the Europa League.

Not the most exciting of games especially in the first half. It did pick up in the second half but it was disappointing to concede late at the end.

WE TOOK SHOTS FROM OUTSIDE THE BOX. WTF?

But yeah seriously, when we play one touch and play with tempo were not bad are we?

Also how did the ref not see the foul on Mata? Looked pretty clear (unless his vision was blocked by five players).

Meant strikers from the academy.

I pretty much sat there for 90 minutes struggling to care. That, on the last game of our league season. I'm gutted.

Not with a bang, with a whimper :(

I really struggled to watch that crap in the first 30 mins and literally bored me to death which eventually made me switch over. I'd imagine it did the same to Bournemouth which eventually won us the game.
