Solskjaer on Dalot future
"The plan was always for Diogo this season, the main thing was him to be fit. He never managed to be fit for a long spell when he was here, unfortunate with injuries.

"He's now playing for a big club, he's been available for them, so it's been a good year for him. I've been very pleased with his development this season. He's our player and we're looking forward to having him back."

Solskjaer on Cavani
"Edinson has trained for a couple of days now and we're still assessing him. When he's in and around the club, his experience and influence on others is great. He always tries to help everyone.

"And when it comes to a game, the lads look to him. Hopefully there's no reaction to the training he's had and he'll be available."

Not sure if you are overestimating yourself or underestimating Milan.

I guess when you're Leeds supporter, every club in Europe looks impressive.

 

[Vanjagl]

Yes let’s not jinx it lol. It was also pointed out after the WH match. That against Milan and WH our defence was higher at set plays and Maguire was no longer dropping back first as soon as the cross came in

He was, but he was keeping them off side, that's the key part. If he can continue doing that, then it's fine.

No doubt in that. Player side for sure, on football tactical style played not so much .

I'm all in for entertaining football, but it rarely wins you trophies. Dunno if you catched RM vs Atalanta couple of days ago. It would have seemed that Atalanta is on pair with RM, yet RM pragmatic style mixed with Atalanta's over eagerness scored them easy an win.

After seeing the team earlier, I stuck €20 on Milan to win 2-1, greenwood to score in 90 and also Greenwood to have 3 or more shots.
102/1

Fred, McTominey and Especially Fernandes should be ashamed that half! We are playing with literally no midfield.

Dirty, defensive team with no idea what to do with the ball, playing with double full backs and 2 defensive midfielders in both games.
They are lucky (well, terrible mistake by United player, but hey!) they even had the positive result coming into this game.

Huge result! Maguire, Linderlof, Henderson superb. Pogba world class! Good second half from Fred. Bring on the draw

 

[Anthony]

I enjoyed that game of ball
Been a while since I've said that about a United game.

 

[Anthony]

Pogba world class!

 

[Theatre of Dreams83]

I had a feeling Pogba would be the deciding player in this game when I saw the team sheet. The team have missed him.

Completely changed the game. And could see the players get a lift when he came on.

 

[Theatre of Dreams83]

Henderson also put in another decent performance the gap between him and De Gea is getting ever closer. That said we all know De Gea will be back in the next game.

His throws are huge lol. But it’s good to have a proactive keeper without superglue on his boots.

 

[Theatre of Dreams83]

Getting worried about Rashford. Serious back injury. And playing with a shoulder and bad ankle injury. Himself or somebody needs to tell him to forget about England this season.
