We have a team. We have a style developing and this crop of players is a fecking brilliant foundation going forward.
Oles doing a great job right now.

We really are good aren't we. It takes some silly personal mistakes to give us trouble but as a team, we are damn good. Bring on the next game!Brilliant game. The odd brain fart aside, I really enjoyed that.
Was just a normal sub to keep his leg freshI completely blame Matic for the pen, the pass was atrociously bad. Want to think that Ole subbed him off soon after that in recognition of that.
Massively. Speed merchant preferable1. we will pla CL next season, no doubt
2. We are screaming for a central defender
Tougher than ours.Great attack, shit defense, good results, but Leicester keeps their distance.
How is Chelsea's schedule?
Love itLeicester still have to play Sheffield United, Spurs, and Arsenal too.
Ake wouldn't be the worst shout. In a team like this alongside Slabhead, we wouldn't need to worry about pace.Massively. Speed merchant preferable
Ya I agree, Ole isn't impulsive like that, still though I felt Matic was poor in both goals (not stopping the cross into the box for the 1st).Was just a normal sub to keep his leg fresh
I don't think it was a penalty.What did he genuinely do wrong today?
The penalty wasn't his fault
Cool. Suddenly it looks good. If we can defeat Leicester, and make no more than a mistake in the other games, we should have it in bad. Leicester is not going to get more than 7 points IMO (from the other 4 matches). If we get 13, we will get Europe (and probably 3rd place too if Chelsea does some mistakes).Tougher than ours.
They have City away, we have Leicester away at the end
Apart from the first few minutes of the second half, we did look more solid. Very poor play from Lindelof, AWB, Maguire and DDG for the first goal, and Maguire and Matic for the second. Bailly could have let it run for a corner, but it did look like shoulder not arm, but in a way that is good, as it will (hopefully) show that we are still not there yet, we still have a lot to work on. The rest of the teams we play will definitely come at us, I hope the defence is on their game. Though Fred looked very good when he came on.We looked better with Bailly and Maguire. Don't care what anyone says
I'd take a league by the moaner tbf.But even if we aren’t, at least I’ll enjoy watching us play. Which is what should be important first.
They aren't shite
It's a little annoying how people still don't recognize the load Macguire has to carry in defence. He's literally carrying Lindelof on his back. All lindelof has to do in games is make one or two timely interceptions when the ball is deep in the box, other than that, AWB and Macguire constantly have to cover him. His heading ability hasn't improved and he constantly gets beaten which is responsible for the majority of counter opportunities we concede. No strength, no pace and he doesn't make the forward passes we were promised. Yet people want to crucify Macguire for slipping up. Unfortunately for him, unlike his partner, when he messes up, he has noone to cover for him.That was a crazy game of football, it could have ended 10-4!
Possibly Maguire's worst game of the season, Bailly almost cost us the game and De Gea's distribution got us in trouble a few times. However we did score 5 goals, our attack was superb today, Rashford is getting sharper and had a good game, Martial scored a beauty and Greenwood was unbelievable. Greenwood didn't just score twice but it was two very important goals, the last of which was very much an individual effort, this kid is destined for glory.
Very positive game going forwards but at the back we made it hard work, if we played a better team we might have been caught out today. We will need to take this on board going forwards.
Smalling?Ake wouldn't be the worst shout. In a team like this alongside Slabhead, we wouldn't need to worry about pace.
Bailly is a red or a pen away everytime. Victor is ok as backup

Don't forget Matic, Rashford (form improving), and Shaw. AWB also developing really well. And Mcguire really good when in possession.Pogba, Bruno, Martial, Greenwood. Those are our quality players. We can and should improve everywhere else.
