The Manchester United Thread

Southampton deserved that, just for that utterly reckless red card challenge that could have been a career breaker for McTominay on another day.

Great win, on to the weekend!

Defo. You got me curious when you posed the ? so I looked back over our 7plus wins.

Along with the 8 different scorers against Palace in the league back in ‘89, we also had 7 different scorers in a 7-0 in Europe against Finlands Oulu Palloseura back in ‘81. And NINE different goal scorers in the 11- 0 over Norways Stromsgodset back in 1974. Further back we had 7 differnt scorers of rhe 8 goals against TSV Munich in Europe in ‘67. And in all those games bar Palace when John Aldridge came on to score a penalty in his last ever game, the scorers were all from the starting XI

Which all shocked me that it had happened four times in L’pool’s history.

Guessing those are the rarest of rare occasions though as there can’t be many other times when virtually the whole team has scored in a game?

And as to last night, one team losing 9 in two successive seasons must be in with a chance of being a record?

Can we all just pause and appreciate Luke Shaw's form this season? It seems like he needs genuine competition to really push him plus I'm pretty sure he's been taking crossing lessons from Telles since he's put in some dimes this season
 
Tbh Shaw was consistently good last year but most fans have an agenda against for some reason. But this season he’s surpassed any of his form ever. Atm one of the best LFB in Europe no doubt!

Prior to this season, he's been a solid defender but very ineffective in the final third. This is the best version of Shaw I've seen at United. Did you also know he's created more chances than any other defender in the pl? Including TAA, Chiwell etc.

Including either of our FB's in those stats/ that conversation is a futile exercise this season given how limited they've been through injury altering how we play and in Trent's case, COVID fatigue.
 
Chong got an assist and goal on his debut tonight also. Add to that Lingards 2 gls and MOTM and Garners MOTM last night. Good couple of days for our Loanees. Oh and Periera scored again lol.

Best of luck to the lad.
I'd never wish anything bad for a footballer, no matter how much I didn't want them at our club, or any other reason*
