solid performance.

Fernandez is looking like our best midfielder since Scholes.

We simply don't win that game without Bruno. He really could make all the difference as to if we play CL next season.

Thought James had his best game for bloody ages too.

Very happy. Happy new year.

Good win... Poor first half and a decent second.

Some shocking defending though, not sure how we came out with a clean sheet.

Happy with that. Withstood a typical physical Watford. Tactics worked. Dan James on the left is a much better player. Fernandes man of the match.

The kind of 3rd gear routine win we’ve been unable to produce very often this season, so I’m pretty happy with that.

Felt routine in the end. That was a good feeling. Nice penalty and performance from Fernandes. Greenwood on the scoresheet and Luke Shaw ruthlessly effective in defense.

Big three points, Bruno was excellent. Got to give credit to Shaw too, a very good defensive display from him.

Nervy start but we controlled the game, and had the better chances throughout the match.

Bruno, James, and Shaw the standouts for me.

Great win. Watford came and treated the first half like a cup final. Knew if we'd keep it tight at half time we'd win in the second half. Delighted when we went in 1-0. It was only going one way after that as Watford just couldn't keep up the intensity.

We have strung together two good results in a row in the league. Honestly can't believe it :lol:

Nice confidence boosters for Martial, Greenwood, Bruno and the defense. With McT back as well there is something to build on here!

Nice. Bruno's creativity with the pace of the front three worked relatively well.

My concern is that once again we needed a penalty to open the scoring. We're quite good once space opens up but before that it's often a struggle.

Nice and entertaining game. Bruno on a different level (Pogba-esque). Beautiful goal from Martial and yet again a fantastic game from Show. The last 3-4 games he has been outstanding.

Great 3 points. Great goals.

Why didn't we buy Bruno in the summer?! Ok, he's here now.

Very happy.
