Why disable rating for Mctominay? He deserves a 10 today.

Mctominary deserves to be in our starting line up again!

Highlights today:

- Maguire and Evans are actually solid at the back

- Antony is still by far our best right winger

- Mount is useless when playing with Bruno

- Casemiro loss of form is worrying

- Garnacho is better than Rasfhord

- Onana almost cost us points again with his clown moment.

- Mctominay is our hero today! Deserves to be back to starting line up IMO. Single-handedly won us the game today and save us from defeat.

Patethic first half. When you take out so called stars We get better team and balance.
Evans, Maguire and McTominay did great.

Much needed win, not sure it changes much given we were utter deck for 90 odd minutes again. Casemiro is clearly in need of being dropped, possibly even sold at this stage. He has been dire since the league Cup final.

Rashford and Case on, lose 0-1

Take them off and win 2-0

we have been saying it for weeks, nice of ETH to listen in the end.

The team from this point onwards will be interesting. Enough players should have played themselves out of the team today.

Happy with the win, but this has to be a line drawn on a number of things.

Needs to start with the team that finished this game.
Garnacho is miles ahead of Rashford and Casemeiro needs a rest.

Can't wait to see our heatmap, it seems like everything goes through our right side, especially Dalot. Absolutely nothing goes through the middle, which is probably because it's where Bruno is supposed to be but he never is.

McTominay is MotD and cannot even get a rating because he wasn't on long enough :lol:

Delighted by the result but this is a Theatre of Farce not dreams.

How did he start Rashford and play Bruno out of position again! We were 100% losing this game if not McT unrealistic magic

Ten Hag needs to take his head out of his ass

See what happens when you play players who actually give a f*ck and want to try. Well done to all the subs who came on and actually gave it a go. And well done to Maguire and Evans who looked far more assured than we have looked all season at the back.

Neither Casemiro nor Rashford should be guaranteed a starting spot ever again. I would not start either player for the next month at least. I'd bench Bruno as well.

That was a terrible performance for 90mins but I’ll take the win, no chance we win anything this year playing like this so let’s see if our play and consistency imotives over the season.

Whether or not this will make a difference in the long run remains to be seen, there is frankly a lot of work that needs to be done, Ten Hag himself needs to up his game.....but you can't beat a good injury time winner in a game that looked lost, with the winner scored by an academy player

What a result!

This is Ten Hag’s Bayern Munich with McTominay his Sheringham and Ole all rolled into one

That was unexpected and exciting in equal measure - pleased for both Harry and Scott

Its fecking poetic that the winning goal scored and assist by players that the manager want to get rid.

Get in there fairplay to mctominey, didn’t look like scoring for 93 minutes then scored 2 in 4 minutes, hopefully that be a turning point, the players looked so chuffed with that result

Football is all about winning
We win we are happy
We lose and it’s a madhouse in here
The late win has changed the atmosphere
Hopefully we get AWB and Shaw back soon

Garnacho always makes things happen. Night happy that we won it. Performance was so rubbish though. We just hit and hope.

Wow! Absolutely massive result for Ten Hag and some big decisions needed in team selection for the next few games before we face City and Newcastle.

Absolutely delighted for McT. He won't come back down for a week. :D

If ETH doesn’t drop Rashford and Casemiro after that, we’ll be back to square one and where we were on 90 minutes today.

That was a dire performance, but Sir Alex and Lady Cathy deserved that finale.

What a weird game. Completely new emotions that United is creating... I am really happy for McTominay because he really was up for it and had two great finishes to win us the game. I am also very happy for ETH, for subbing the matchwinner.

But all in all, I thought, it was an awful match. And winning it, while taking a bit of pressure off, thankfully, might send the wrong signals. We were shit and while we probably didn't deserve to lose the match, a win is generous as feck. I am really worried for us. Another game where we looked clueless. Our big players look out of form, we are slow and tumescent. We won it by throwing the sink at them and glad we did but I really don't feel happiness at this stage.
