Easy win in the end. Hard to criticise too much when we've won but my only gripe is that we should be beating these teams by a few more goals. Our finishing problems have been well documented but we didn't even create that many opportunities today. GD could well prove important but we rarely put teams to the sword unlike other teams.

No wonder we scored so few goals. We were so shit in final third.

Sunderland are absolute garbage. Difficult to take anything other than the three points from the game.

Decent against a 10 man Sunderland. Must get better if we have a prayer at 4th.

Awful game, uninspiring performance, three nice goals, happy for Marcus getting a goal and a nice showing from Shaw.

Hopefully this is the year Sunderland feck off for good.

Good comfortable win with a Europa League away game on our minds.

It did highlight how awful we are in the final 3rd though. Jesus wept, give us all the space in the world and we'll still find a way to feck it up.

Shaw was my MOTM today, 3-0, GD padding and 3 points I won't complain.

Easy enough win


Sunderland are really bad though so not going to get carried away.

Pretty decent. Most players did OK. Darmian not to bad for the first 60 mins, Shaw was decent. Zlatan the difference. Some clumsy defending (Bailly). Aside from the 3 points and the clean sheet, it wasn't too demanding which is great.

Impressed with Romero today. I like the way he finds players with a quick throw out, rather than hanging onto the ball.

May all our games be played away from home.
It's weird isn't it. Do you reckon these set of bottlers can't handle the pressure of performing at Old Trafford? There's a lot of expectation

Thought we were pretty poor and disjointed for a lot of it

Built up play at times wasnt good and didn't show enough ambition to score more goals

Delighted rashford got his goal. He needed that

It it just me or does Bailly look very out is sorts? He didn't have a nightmare but just seemed shaky and unsure at times in this and recent games

Great gesture from Lingard, good man.

Big shame Fellaini cost us the game in the end and Mourinho alienated himself even fürher from the fans.

I'm amazed how we're still in for 3rd spot, how many chances do we get given to break into the top 4? Upcoming games against rivals will probably kill that opportunity off tho.

Good win today and I'm happy, but let's be realistic we have a lot of room for improvement.

I thought Bailly was excellent against Everton.

If Chelsea want to turn up next week it could be carnage with another display like that. Tippy tappy square passing, no pace in the build up, rubbish final balls and don't get me started on Pogba....he is currently a waste of space.
tumescent, boring, soporiphic, narcolepsy inducing, rubbish performance all round.
Forget the scoreline, that was crap.

Chelsea only scored one here, Man City two, Spurs zero.

Yet we have our fans moaning after a win that we didnt score 5. This place has turned bitter.

Saying that if it was 2-0 with two Martial goals from dribbling runs it'd probably be ecstatic

We really were. Sloppy as hell. Ibra could've laid easy goals off for Rashford but kept fecking up. Pogba overcooked a ball for Martial too. We were a bit of shambles towards the end, it has to be said.

Still, good win. Glad to see Rashford score, and Shaw doing pretty well.

Darmian was solid. Fellaini didn't really put a foot wrong, thought he did well actually. Romero with a brilliant save and very good distribution. Everyone else had a fair enough game. Zlatan, I wouldn't swap for any player in the league.

It was an absolute shambles prior to the match, you missed all the fun.

Zlatan's best game? Suppose the opponent was too poor to get too excited about it

Lots of nice flicks and a great goal though
