Brilliant game. The odd brain fart aside, I really enjoyed that.

One of the best games under Ole since the bounce. Every shot from us looked dangerous, and for them too in the first half. The Pogba Bruno bromance continues, and Mason was just magical.

Mental game, reminded me of those ones we used to have under Fergie against Newcastle

Oh yeah, and the Martial goal. Goal of the season candidate that. So many wonder moments today.

Rubbish defence. Great everything else

Well done to the squad players today. After the unnecessary shit they got after our last game, the 4 subs in the second half came on and did well.

Didn't quite expect all those goals! Bit concerning on our part but we got the job done.

Great result would have been better if we kept a clean sheet.

Questions need to be asked of De Gea and Maguire.

Front 3 were immense!

Great attack, shit defense, good results, but Leicester keeps their distance.

How is Chelsea's schedule?

I think you’ll challenge next season, as long as you sort silly unnecessary mistakes

So much to be pleased about. Contrast what happened at Bournemouth earlier in the season, where we went 1-0 down and looked baffled about how to get back into it against an organised defence, to what happened today. There is a trust, a belief and an idea about us now that means we have a fightback in us even when things don't go our way. That's very different to what we were seeing not even that long ago.

And Mason Greenwood. Oh my...

One of those games that you don't want to end. Could have been a double figures scoreline. Great overall performance against a side who are clearly struggling.

Only thing now is that united really need to be better at corners. All of them a too low or to close to the first player. But other then that. This feels great at the moment. Feels like the united team i love once again.

We looked better with Bailly and Maguire. Don't care what anyone says

Great game. Looked like scoring at every opportunity. Defence ropey but feck it every team in the PL has a suspect off day in defence.

Somewhere in your mind, touching a nerve
Our attack is a joy to watch. Who would have thought we would be saying that after what we have seen in recent times under the previous managers.

our defenders need a kick up the arse today though.

We are 3 points off Leicester. And we play them in the last game. Meaning - if we win all remaining games (and depending on what Chelsea does), we could finish 3rd. Just think about that! Who would think about it being even a remote possibility, before Bruno's arrival?

Obviously, I don't know a single fan who wouldn't be ecstatic with 4th, as well, and that also requires a lot of work and luck, but just saying - 3rd place is still theoretically possible!

Awesome game today.

Really enjoyable match to watch.

looking so positive.

OGS has got the best out Martial and Rashford (still not up to speed yet after his injury) and has managed Greenwood brilliantly.

Genius decision to get rid of that lump, Lukuku.

Really enjoyable game, very entertaining. Greenwood is awesome, how good can he be as he progresses. Martial goal was the pick of some real crackers. Bruno great, matic great, Pogba good. Fred looked good when he came on.
Defensively we looked shakey, need to cut out the errors..

overall brilliant game

Excellent attacking performance. A few issues to resolve defensively but can’t complain too much.

Other than the wins, the attacking play has been very promising since the restart. Usually we struggle to create against defensive teams but we’ve not had problems creating chances & could’ve scored more today. Good to see & hopefully with a couple more additions, we’ll be challenging the top-2 next year.

The game was a bit mental largely due to our silly defending at times. But going forwards we are absolutely on fire. The midfield and front six are a joy to watch.

We've absolutely battered them. Unlucky to concede that stupid penalty but generally immense by all attacking players, Full backs and Fred.

Some lovely finishing and attacking play. Bruno’s an absolute god. Mason’s brilliant. Somehow I just knew he was going to score when he found himself with the ball for his second one.

DDG’s still a busted flush. Under a different manager, he could find himself as the new Joe Hart. He’s had a lot of slack.

Another brilliant win, like a goal of the month competition, some sweet goals in there. What a player Mason is, special talent.

So fun. Exciting feels. This team has some serious potential but we need to tighten that defense, and sadly fix the issues at Goalkeeper. Sorry Dave. 2 commanding players at the back and we are title challengers.

Oh and Greenwood.

Some really bad defensive bits but brilliant going forward. Felt like we could score at will. Got to chill the last 30 minutes again which is a huge plus, yet again. Greenwood though, hopefully he avoids injury problems, can truly become a great here.
