The Manchester United Thread

It was a certainty he'd score after my drilling! :P

Get in, kill it with another goal now!

I really respect Young's dedication and the effort he puts in. But we'll never be a top team with him as LB. He can be a great cover option but honestly, he is so suspect defensively and Knockaert has the beating of him every time semingly.

I still don't understand how people reckon wingers can transition into fullbacks (yes there are exceptions, Valencia has done it decently)It's a two total different positions, with some skills that translate but a lot of others that don't.

You really are the gift that keeps on giving. Next time Herrera starts can you slag him off and I'll put £100 on him to score the first goal lol
 
On a side note, really impressed with Brighton, as a new team promoted and going to OT, no ***** given intimidation wise.

Yeah they are really decent, one of the better teams in this league outside top 6.

P.S. when did you become mod?

Last week.

Yeah, they've got a really good balance of keeping it tight, and knowing when they can go attack/counter. Impressed with em, looking tight, and looking a threat at OT as a new promoted side is never easy.
 
Played pretty bad tbh. But got the win which is most important. Never expected an easy game today tbh. Brighton have been great this season and hardly ever concede. Gave City a tough game too. Good that pogba got 90 mins. Lindelöf was good again. Loved that crunching tackle :) on to the next! MOTM between Young and Matic for me.

For some reason, lindelof was given the MOTM award.

Not been picked up on British TV.

Hughton be even more narked when he sees that. Wonder if they'll do him retrospectively?

Yeah, needed those three points.
I've realised there is no point moaning about the football we play. It is what it is.
Keep winning matches (however fortuitously) and stay in touch at the top.

Enjoyed the late goal by Willian yesterday. Gave me a good giggle.
 
Looks like Lukaku is going to get a ban of sorts for kicking out at one of there players. Bong I think. Clearly intentional.
 
Yeah but even though Lukaku hasn't been great lately he still terrifies defences with his gpalacoring ability and his threat in behind.

I like Ibra don't get me wrong but he was part of our problem last season at times. Teams knew he wasn't a threat so could push higher up and squeeze us.
 
What goalscoring ability? Half of his goals were flukes, mis shots or terrible defensive mistakes. There's no creativity behind him. He doesn't suit us. He needs 2 more Pogbas in team to be effective.
 
Goals are goals.

8 in 13 Pl games.

3 in 5 CL games.
Ultimately I'll judge a striker on goals.

Didn’t know Everton had three Pogbas as he was very effective there. And a goal is a goal he still has to be in the right place and put it in past the keeper

The goalscoring ability that's let him score 11 in 18 games.

HAHA! Funny. He's scored around what? 100 career goals by age 24?
