    Just tuned in. I know about the lead. Not bad for the old guy. :)
    Are we any good overall?

    Stunning outside of the boot pass from Darmian to Lingard, only for the latter to lose his composure and blaze it over the bar.

    Yet another chance wasted.

    Lingard needs to work on his finishing. At least get in on target ffs. Apart from that good half from us.

    Just in case anyone missed it. I don't like Mount.

    Good half overall from United I thought. We have had some really nice movement and have looked dangerous at times. Another early goal in the second half would be nice, just to further cool the nerves.

    We are going to concede through a cross from Darmiens side, he can't defend it is so glaringly obvious. He offers nothing going forward either, would much prefer Blind on for him.

    Impressed with Lingard so far today, him getting in behind is causing them alot of trouble. We should bring on Martial to do the same from the left.

    We still seem to find it hard to make things comfortable for ourselves, but what I will say is that José Mourinho currently has Manchester United at the best they have been since SAF retired.

    Good half from the lads. We've done a terrific job in stopping West Brom from getting crosses into the box.

    Going forward, we've not created that much. We really need that second half to kill the game.

    Rondon was all over Jones, holding and backing in to him, Jones just moves away and Rondon falls.:)

    The team is tiring a bit due to many games. We should rotate 1/2 of our midfielders since they run a lot and most creativity comes through them

    This is all set for a 1-1 surely? Has all the signs of it. We dominate, miss some chances, hit the bar and concede late o.

    Think we've played well aside from a sloppy 10 minute spell towards the end of the half. Should have got the second goal. Hopefully we can do so at the start of the second half

    What a chance for Lingard! I'm sorry but that was a juicy volley ready to be pelted in but he somehow missed.

    Why are they booing it's embarrassing
    I've missed disgruntled noises from oppo fans. Too often these past few years they've been quite content at both half and full time. I'm glad they're having a shit time.

    We better get Martial on quick, you see what a little bit of pace does against their left FB, well their right FB is even slower, even I would outrun him.

    Get Martial charging at him asap.

    One of the more boring games we've played this season, left hand side is the only thing causing us any real problems, maybe bringing on Martial at half time and injecting a bit of pace against their RB (who seems to be the slowest player ever). Pogba has been excellent, Rojo has been good defensively I just wish he could just be a bit more composed when playing the ball out. We don't seem to be getting much off the referee but at least this time it isn't actually costing us, feels good to get an early goal.

    Not a bad idea as it would pin them back.

    I'm glad we got the early goal as we can play on the counter a bit. Just need to finish.

    Expect to see Mata (Lingrad) and Rashford/Martial (Rooney) come on in the second half once West Brom switch their focus to the right in the second half. That will draw Pogba more into the game as he's better coming off that side. 3:0
    I don't think Mata will come on, this game is to physical for him. Probably Rashford and Fellaini at some point.
