4:1 and another comprehensive victory for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. We were excellent again going forward today, scoring four good goals with Pogba and Rashford in particular putting in an excellent shifts, sharing three goals and two assists between them. No clean sheet again though and we still look very shakey at the back so it is yet to be seen how we will fair against better opposition. Bailly's red card was also a blot on our copybook as well as a possible injury to Rashford.

But for now we can all enjoy the resurgence in the team and actually enjoying watching Manchester United play again.

Next up, Newcastle at St. James's Park on Wednesday.

Man Utd 1:0 Bournemouth - Pogba (5')

Man Utd 2:0 Bournemouth - Pogba (33')

Man Utd 3:0 Bournemouth - Rashford (45')

Man Utd 3:1 Bournemouth - Ake (45' + 2)

Man Utd 4:1 Bournemouth - Lukaku (72')

Probably seen enough to say give Ole the job?
Pogba MOTM again. Totally bossed the game from start to finish. What a talent.

Special shout out to Matic. Was solid in midfield.
2nd half was very professional - boring but its called finishing the job.
OT was buzzing!!

fecking wonderful. Pogba was absolutely world class in every definition of the word today.

Oh and feck you Jose Mourinho.

Build the team around Pogba, Rashford, Martial, and Lingard. 3 youth players and someone signed as a teen.

Good win. Nice to see us attacking. Rashford, and Pogba excellent. Like Lindelof in defence. Bailly, Young and Lingard need to be replaced. Onto the next game

Another great and another magnificent performance. 10/10 for Pogba and Rashford, just ridiculous form from them.

Defense and Bailly the only poor point but never mind.

This looks like Fergie's United of his last 2 years, amazing on the front foot, shite at the back. As long as we keep scoring 3-5 goals a game it won't be a problem. Keep playing to our strength.

Anyone here a Cleveland Browns fan as well? Both them and United are making me look forward to 2019.

Great football. Not afraid to take risks or lose the ball. Ironically our possession is dominant regardless. Slowed it down when we needed to, countered excellently.

Who can explain to me how is it that our players all of sudden know how to pass? It seems strange. They could not string two passes together back in the wilderness days. Was it Fellaini?

Managed to get the score right but not the scorers. Fantastic performance. Always looking forward, pressing higher up the field, hunting in packs. It's great to see.

Great performance overall. Pogba and Rashford in the first half especially were sublime.

Feels so good to see goals flying in from genuinely good, quick football.

Teams were queueing up to have a go at us, and already they must be worried about playing us again.

I'm better than Messi (even though I'm not)
Exceptional improvement going forward, still shaky at the back. As long as we keep winning, I’ll take it though. Finally enjoying watching football again. The team huddle after the Lukaku goal nearly made me cry

Pogba absolutely bossed it. Some great attacking play.

Our GD is now approaching double digits. A win against Newcastle and it's there.

Wonderful going forward, shaky in defense.

Defense could be fixed by a top class CB in Jan or the summer.

Happy days.
