2-0 result absolutely flattered them. Should've scored a lot more. Great performance.

Nothing from Pogba or Lukaku. FPL week ruined. That aside, good win.

Happy with the win, industrious and assured.

Still a few days left in the transfer window, go spend some fecking money on FB's!

Excellent performance. Deserved win. Jose's subs making an impact. Good start to the season.

Well deserved. Completely dominant, shame lukaku couldn't get a goal and missed a pen but no harm in the end. Exactly the type of game where last season we dropped points but us getting 2 goals in the end is big for our reputation IMO. Also important that de gea saved that chance in the end. 3 clean sheets in a row, teams will be more scared of playing us now.

Everyone played well to be fair but too many brain-farts in attack today.

The only criticism this season is we don't score the first goal early enough.

Dominated again.
One good save from De Gea in stoppage time.
Lukaku needs to practice putting penalties to the right.

Best performance of the three league games. So dominant, high tempo throughout the game bar one or two slower spells and impeccable defensively. Only thing we're missing is true width.

Great result. Same level of dominance as in the previous two games, without the crisp passing, quick movement and lacking a spark in the final third. Leicester hardly worried us at all, contrary to what I expected.

Need to be quicker out wide, but the great start continues.

Job done. Should have been much easier but in the end it was important to not drop points in a match which was basically one sided from start to finish.

They were very lucky to hold out for just 2-0, given we had one disallowed and a missed penalty. Team has plenty of stamina and self-belief to get over those missed opportunities. Goals coming from all over the place too.

Strongest start to a season for a long long time.
