WOOOHOOO.

I was completely convinced we would lose but I'm fecking ecstatic I was wrong. We deserved it today: we were mostly in control, some stupid brainfarts in defence aside.

And Jesse fecking Lingard scored our final Premier League goal. That is amazing.

 

[SteveW]

Get the feck in.

14th to 3rd.

I'd have killed for top 3rd last August with the way our squad looked. Huge progress made.

 

[groovyalbert]

Jinxed with the OTT comments in the match thread. You're welcome

 

[Globule]

Rode our luck at times, but we've been sluggish for a few matches now so I'll take us crawling over the line. Just glad the league is over now.

 

[abailey123]

Job done - nervy as hell until the penalty.

Ole and the players have to take a lot of credit for turning this around from our position in December and January.

show ambition from Monday and get our business done early.

We can go into the Europa without any pressure and enjoy it - express ourselves.

 

[Squeaky Bumtime]

Oleeee at the wheel

 

[Crashoutcassius]

A great second half to season with some great football and some good defending. Loads to build on. Hopefully a positive summer for United fans instead of usual reactionary stuff. No pressure in Europa and could still take a good trophy

 

[0le]

I wanted us to batter them but it Is hilarious that we won by being utter shite and Lingard scoring at the end

[Keyser]

14 games unbeaten run

 

[el3mel]

Congrats. Great job from us to hold on and even score the second by the end.

Great ending to the season. On to the next one.

 

[Schmeichel's Cartwheel]

Wasn’t pretty but we did it!

If someone told me in January we’d finish 3rd I would have called you insane. Hell of a turnaround.

 

[Get In Scholesy]

Credit to Ole for getting us 3rd, quite an achievement in all honesty.

Game was a terrible watch though, we are in dire need of some squad depth.

A season of two halves really. Undefeated in the league since the restart no? Good foundations.

 

[Salus Populi Suprema Lex]

Third place, £70 million at least banked, a superb unbeaten league run, still in the Europa League.

Let's see how we do in the Europa and what Ole does with the squad in the summer. Congratulations to him and the team; third is excellent, given a difficult season.

 

[FujiVice]

Lingard's a man for the bookends. last game of Van Gaal. First and Last game of Mourinho. Scored in Ole's first game and this might be Lingard;s last league game for United.

 

[Adisa]

Its very concerning how dog shit we were.

 

[RedRonaldo]

We are 3rd!!!!! We are back in the CL!!!

 

[vodrake]

I mean obviously a superb crushing victory would have been nice, but I think a PL record breaking penalty from Fernandes and Lingard scoring his first PL goal in 2 years to confirm CL will do just as well

Get in lads!

 

[always_hoping]

Great stuff to win and keep a clean sheet. Over the moon with that result. To finish the season in 3rd position from 7th after 25 games and 14 points off 3rd is outstanding achievement.

Delighted for Ole and his management team clear progress made with this group of players.

 

[Superunknown]

I went through an entire pack of custard creams watching that game. Arse bluddy hurts from being tense the entire game.

We did it!
Lingard getting a goal is the icing.

 

[Infra-red]

Never in doubt (definitely was very much in doubt, but who cares!)

 

[Bilbo]

One of the worst games to watch I can recall, both teams pretty awful.

That's your reaction? Who gives a fk? Job done. Massive day for the club that helps us progress

 

[Crackers]

Fantastic. Game wasn't brilliant, but getting 3 points out of it is fantastic. And to see JLingz score like that!

 

[Jazz]

Thank you Lord! Job done.

That was so nerve wracking. That first half almost killed me.

Well done to the lads and the coaches.

Now let's go win the Europa League.

 

[reelworld]

Never in doubt

 

[RedNed77]

I've missed the CL

Feels like fecking ages since we were last in it. I know it isn’t, but it feels it.

 

[Tony247]

Not time to analyze the performance. All good that ends good. Enjoy the result!

 

[glazed]

The #OleOut crowd better go into witness protection...

Nah he's still the wrong guy. But he has earned the chance to prove us wrong.

 

[RedDevilUnited369]

The irony of Lingard scoring the winning goal is a beautiful thing...

CONGRATULATIONS TO OLE!!!!!!

 

[Gordon S]

Third place!! What an amazing turnaround!
We were hoovering around 10-12th midseason. Hats off to staff and players!

 

[My only Eric]

I know.. I know we are 3rd and all but.. Lingard Scored.. That should be the headline.

 

[Jibbs]

Congratulations everyone.

 

[MiracleInMadrid]

Thaaaank feck. What a horror show that was though. The players were nervous and knackered all the way through.

But to pull of 3rd place after being completely ruled out in january is amazing and deserves a lot of praise.

Now we hame some very important business to be done in the transfer window. A left back, right wing and central midfielder is essential for us to push on from here.

 

[TrueRed79]

Thank feck for that!! Massive, massive result. GET IN!

 

[Macern]

Get in!!

 

[Tom Cato]

Lingard getting the final goal on the season makes me so bloody happy. Perfect way to end the Premier League season.

 

[12OunceEpilogue]

Not a great performance, tired, sloppy etc. Hopefully all the first team players now get a rest until the next meaningful knockout game and we can get back to our best levels.

That said, fair play today. We got the job done and I'm made up. Fair play Lingard too, stuck in there and profited from a jittery Schmeichel at the end. We've dragged a 14 point gap back on Leicester this season, which is a great effort even if performances of late have been pretty shite.

Where is the lad who bet on Lingard not to score or assist this season?

Must be fecking furious at himself.

I hope his mates all give him the JLingz symbol when they next meet up with him.

 

[mav_9me]

Its very concerning how dog shit we were.

tbf both teams were nervy. We desperately need Sancho (preferably) or another RW. If we have any money left over has to be either a pacy CB or a DM.

 

[BlueHaze]

Seriously, after both his collapse with Livershite and now Leicester he should from now on be known as Brendan Bottlers.
