City must be shitting bricks.

 

[BarstoolProphet]

Great attacking football today, I even felt that at 1-1. Bruno, Pogba, Greenwood, Shaw and Rashford were all very good. Rashford my MotM.

Nice little cameo from VdB aswell. Likeable guy.

 

[RedDevilRoshi]

Very good result. Cements 2nd place now.

 

[Counterfactual]

That first few seconds...

 

[wolvored]

Good game to watch. Everyone played decent and 2 goals for Greenwood will be great for his confidence.

 

[always_hoping]

Absolutely delighted that the Old Trafford Burnley bogey is put to bed. First league double over them remarkable since 1975/76

Enjoyable game I thought and Burnley to their credit played their part in that decent match

 

[Tom Van Persie]

Professional performance against a shithouse team.

 

[RedRonaldo]

Feck off Burnely! Great win!

 

[Superunknown]

The first and third goals we scored were quality team goals. Got a bit lucky with the second goal, but we did more than enough to win that game, so we earned that luck.

Rashford was great. Shame he didn't get a goal, but he looked very good in general.

 

[The Firestarter]

Very happy that despite having some problems initially, Mason still managed a brace.

Burnley and Dychie lokie likie cnutties.

 

[ThinkTank@Cafe]

If we had a prime Carrick and all rounded CF like Kane, nobody would stand a chance. Mason is a more than a solution for our right wing. Please byuy a DLP and Kane.

 

[Marcus]

Love that Greenwood is scoring and Donny is showing he belongs. Well done United!

 

[Garethw]

Thank God for that! Amazing what we can achieve when we don’t setup so negatively.

 

[Isotope]

Great win, despite that fat bastard trying hard to screw us up.

 

[siw2007]

Good win against a team that have been a bit of a pain in the backside at home in recent years. Burnley are really well organised and hate how the ball is like a magnet to their strikers going in behind so we have done well to win this match.

Rashford looked a lot better than recent games, Greenwood scores twice, Pogba was very good too. 8 points behind City, don’t see us catching them but have got to keep going and believe something can happen.

 

[Eurotrash]

Rashford+Shaw very effective. Correct decision to take off Fred.

Burnley did what Burnley does best. Not pretty, but they made it difficult for us.

Impressive second half for us.

 

[Wednesday at Stoke]

Good subs, solid performance.

 

[Still ill]

It wasn't pretty but would we have won that last season? Would we feck. We get it over the line these days. Keep on truckin' lads.

 

[thepolice123]

We made that look harder than it is but still a good win.

 

[TheBreadTruck]

Don't think I've ever heard G Nev sound so deflated when we scored that 2nd goal -> completely broke their "will Burnley get into the Super League if they beat Utd etc etc" narrative.

Bugger them all, great win and resolve against a horrific brand of football to play against and (another!) terribly ref'd game.

 

[VidaRed]

Maguire got man handled today.

 

[Berbasbullet]

Stick your brexit ball where the sun don’t shine!

 

[RedIan]

5th straight win in the prem. best run since ole took over as full time manager.
Greenwood on fire.

 

[Shark]

Buzzing after that to the tune of a few cold ones. Feck Burnley

 

[pablo__p]

I thought Maguire was very good except for the Tarkowski goal.

Also kudos to Ole for introducing Cavani for Fred so early.

Overall not the best entertainment but super pleased with the result.

Would love if Fulham stayed at the expense of these.

 

[iluvoursolskjær]

Good win, comfortably second.

 

[OrcaFat]

Was a good win. Bit shaky at the back here and there. And I didn’t like the shape of the midfield second half with Pogba and McT both vacating the CM area, we looked a bit frantic when they came forward.

But three more points and great fun.

 

[DickDastardly]

We have a really good team don’t we.

Starting to look so innit.

Add quality and feck me....

 

[Godfather]

I wish that shithouse team would finally go down. Good performance overall. Really liked the look of Grennwood and also Rashford looked on fire today. VdB did well when he came on

 

[Desert Eagle]

I'll take the win and the gun wood goals. I like this consistent winning.

 

[SuperiorXI]

feck off back to Turf Moor Dyche

 

[Abraxas]

Not sure why Burnley always seem to get criticised and abused. Hard working team that use every ounce of what they have to compete at this level. They're competitive but nothing outrageous at all.

I thought we did well today. The first half took on the usual sluggish form where we are content moving the ball side to side, but we really stepped things up nicely as Burnley died off.

 

[justsomebloke]

Really good performance (by both teams), and an excellent result. This is really starting to look like something! Shaw, Rashford, Greenwood our best players.

There is now a bigger gap between Utd and Leicester than between Utd and City....

 

[Red_toad]

Difficult match, Ole was struggling for options from the bench at 1-1. Ref did the usual ignore the first 3 or 4 clear opposition fouls and instantly booked the first United player to do a foul? Where does this come from it’s just about every game. Glad we won and it was entertaining. Fred and McTommy showing why they shouldn’t be starting at home v shite teams.

 

[Tom Cato]

Leeds next. Prepare for another goalgalore

 

[NinjaZombie]

Don't know why people are knocking Burnley that much. They're entitled to approach the game the best they think they can.

Arsenal fans used to be precious about other teams roughhousing their teams or not playing what they think are aesthetic football. Fergie's teams used to be able to play football AND get in the thick of it.

 

[yamo123x]

Relief to win in the end, but then our team always make it hard on ourselves.

Positives: 3 points, Pogba excellent, Greenwood great 2nd half, Rashford's best game for a while and Shaw good too.

Lindelof was a shambles today and Maguire played like someone who did everything to avoid a yellow. Fernandes again poor overall

 

[FatTails]

Happy with that. Great couple of team goals and a lucky deflected one.

3-1 makes it sound like a comfortable win but it was anything but that. Tarkowski and Wood completely dominated our defence and were a nuisance all game. Just horrible to play against. To me, at some point Burnley looked more likely to get a later winner. Hope they go down, need Fulham to put a good run.

Ole might not outshine other managers with tactical nous and progressive innovative tactics, but he’s made the squad a lot fitter, happier, and much more resilient.

We have a good grip on second place now and hopefully we can win the Europa.

 

[berbatrick]

Pretty shocking performance individually (other than Greenwood) and as a team really. 2nd goal was lucky and it allowed the 3rd.
But Burnley were worse and genuinely atrocious to watch and play against.

 

[justsomebloke]

Definitely deserved. I had said this would be a good barometer of how far we have come from last Jan at home to Burnley.

Clearly we are better now.
Was a very good attacking performance.

understatement of the year
