Mata was passing forward. I'm done with that.
They were enjoying themselves and our defenders were hardly stretched. Mctominay was taken off as was Bruno and James. They are starters against Everton. Fred won't feel any pain tonight with that brace.Why did they keep running their socks off in 2nd half though? Should have conserved energy for Everton.
They usually take the foot off the gas when they go ahead. Nice to see them working hard all game for a change.Why did they keep running their socks off in 2nd half though? Should have conserved energy for Everton.
Its anyones who plays against usIs that their song or something? Anyone know?
Agreed. It does show how the mental side of players and a team is so important. We knew that confidence was low, but this boost shows how much I think. It does obviously help that as you say, he's not only a special player, but one that can inspire and elevate the others around him.Fernandes looks really special and seems to have brought other players up with him. The passing has got much quicker.
He is just part of the pieces we are building up.Bruno is a miracle worker. We are completely rejuvenated with him in the side, it's amazing how quickly quality players can have an impact on a side.
A total pleasure to watch.
By the time Rashford is back I’d say Pogba will be with another clubGreat result. Really enjoyed it. Now put Rasford, Martial and Pogba all back in with this lot.
There’s usually the it’s only Brugge rubbish or if that defender doesn’t get sent off we get beat.Get in! ,Where's the ole out brigade now ?
Istanbul or Wolves would be 51/49 for me.Just back from Old Trafford, one of my most enjoyable nights there for a very long time.
Obviously the sending off made it easier than it could have been but sometimes against 10 men it can be difficult
Great to see ighalo score on his first start. Rare to see Fred score nevermind twice. Bruno a joy to watch live, he also brings out the best in the players around him. Greenwood looked very sharp when introduced.
Sidenote Mignolet got some amount off banter off the United fans, he couldn't stop falling on his own arse. Are you Gerrard in disguise we all sang.
As for the next round, I don't really care so long as its not a long trip away.
There is no way in hell Brugge had 50% possession.Brugge has 50% possession (in an away match) and yet lost 0-5. Only shows how deceiving possession is or over-rate a stat it is.
Yeah according to fotmob it was only 33.2There is no way in hell Brugge had 50% possession.
BBC has it as 67 - 33.Yeah according to fotmob it was only 33.2
James needs to do better, but let's not forget that it was James' sublime shot that inspired their defender to start a goal-keeping career and got us the all-important penalty…Excellent result. Nice to see Ighalo get off the mark and a nice brace for Fred. Don't we look so much better with Bailly in for Lindelof? I know we weren't really put under pressure but still. Bailly all the way for me. Fernandes seems to bring everyone into the game, even Mata had a good game. Fred and McTominay are a good pairing. I think the only disappointment was James not really firing. I hope it's just a temporary dip. Looking forward to the next round.
I hope so, too. He's clearly still getting into full form and should improveI know it's only Bruges, but I really think Igahlo will be a player for United. He's going to be a great back up and score big goals.
After that I'm hoping we get Inter and the chance to dump Lukaku out! Bring it on.The only teams I have concerns about is Wolverhampton and Inter. The rest of the teams i expect us to have full control against in this tournament.
I think those working their tripe off in the second half when the game was won were those who knew beforehand barring injuries they wouldn't be starting against Everton, and there was a place on the bench to fight for.Why did they keep running their socks off in 2nd half though? Should have conserved energy for Everton.
Just repeating what Ole had said about him in the presser on Wednesday.I caught some of the full game replayed on MUTV and Gardner compared Diatta to Mane. What do people think about that comparison out of interest?
Wonder if Ole would consider taking a punt on him in next January window maybeJust repeating what Ole had said about him in the presser on Wednesday.
He's got time on his side(he's just turned 21 a few days ago)but hasn't done anything of note yet to get him on the radar of the bigger clubs.Wonder if Ole would consider taking a punt on him in next January window maybe
