It was by and large a good comeback. It looked like we would get slaughtered early on but we settled down, sured up the middle, and began to carry the game. Martial is already earning his pay and Mata, whom I was very critical of in the first half, was all over the pitch to keep play alive and scored a lovely goal. De Gea again excellent. Schweinsteiger was exceptional after he came on.
The negatives are pretty obvious. Rooney was once again godawful and IMO you can't blame the injury that much because he looked poor before this. This is another game where he did not a single thing of note and pretty much failed at everything. He even had a clear run for Memphis and fudged the pass forward, totally killed the attack. I would give him another 45 and drop him if this continues.
I am also concerned about Carrick. It's clear that he's in his last season with us but ATM he looks too slow and ponderous to really make a difference. He will need to play because BS and Schneiderlin can't play in every game but I'm really hoping that the wheels don't come off during the season and he's in a Gary Neville situation.
And isn't De Gea excellent?
...Oh, and I forgot, isn't De Gea excellent?
