Now lets use this to kick on next season. No excuses anymore. We are a few signings short of them but when we get them every team should be battered into submission by all out attack at our hands.

Another Mourinho snoozefest. Failed to beat any of the top 6 this season, apart from City, Spurs, Liverpool, Chelsea and Arsenal. Surely his time's up.

One hell of a turnaround. Absolutely awful in the first half and that's no exaggeration.

Credit to Mourinho and his players. Particularly to Paul Pogba who finally (I feel) had his big Man Utd moment/performance.

Who would’ve thought that at half time? Football, bloody hell!

Tell you what. Hate Mou all you want. Since he came in we’ve rediscovered the comeback.

Smalling, Pogba, and Sanchez were the most criticized players before HT.

All of them were incredible during the 2nd half.
Two assists for Sanchez
Two goals for Pogba
The winning goal for Smalling.

:drool:

Hopefully Mourinho gave them the same treatment they were getting on here (rightfully), and this was there response.

Well did not see that happening.

Might not mean much in terms of the league.

But a huge win nonetheless , well done lads.

Wierdest match I've ever seen. First half was among the worst ever, second half had everything and denying City winning the title like that feels fecking amazing.

I don't care what happens from now on. This is what the supporters wanted to see.

What. A. Second. Half.
I bet on United win when we went one down. Then odds went way bigger at 2-0. Not bothered though. The win and bet coming in has made my day.

If they can start turning these 30/45 min positive performances into a full 90 mins, a lot of us whingers would probably stop moaning.

The ability seems to be there from today’s game, but the consistency is sorely lacking.

Wow! If Mourinho let us play every game like this second half then I’d be his biggest fan.

Attacking City and taking it to them got us three points today.

Pogba was absolutely immense today, legitimately world class. He bossed the midfield.

It's weird how you want to rub the win into the faces of insufferable Caf members rather than City folk (also I don't know any City fans).

What a 2nd half from the team. Pogba, Sanchez and perhaps MoM Herrera.
