We need to sort out the home form clearly but what a record that is

Imagine the gooning down there today?

Quite literally he did what you’re expecting a good manager to do.
He brought on cavani vs Southampton who made the difference and started him today.

Genuinely only wumming pal

Yes but even though Greenwood is a kid learning I would take him over Martial he gives 100% and will improve with every game. Martial is just a lazy @#%&! who has had more then enough time to prove himself but he just doesn't seem to be arsed

We are such a frustrating side.

First half dire, second half, looked fantastic.



Great win.

Obviously a rhetorical question

Out of his depth .Ole Out

Trevor’s a bitter. Glad his piss is boiled.

It's clear he wasn't the managers signing which is worrying but he seems to have sussed him early doors. Just a bit of a nothing player.

Think people just want to see him given more of a chance.

Some players take to Utd like ducks to water others take a season or so to bed in

The kid has ability and at the very minimum has to be given a chance before breaking out the pitchforks

Viva a bit of patience

obvs, this. has had good moments. not sure what he was meant to be doing today.

Weird time to be a red. Win a game we're title challengers, lose and we're so bad manager's position is untenable. Every single week.

1. Pogba.

2. Try watching a little harder. The sign of a good/intelligent player is knowing what he is going to do with the ball when he gets it, before he gets it. He does. Just need to play him in the right position. Put him as one of two at the back of midfield. Bruno in front. Pogaba as backup if Bruno out.

Trouble for DVB imo is he’s being played out of position

I think he’d be better deeper or maybe in a mata role cutting in from wide. Saying that I think he’s been good in the games he’s played, especially considering the he’s been here a few months and only now he’s getting consistent chances.

I do believe that he wasn’t an Ole signing though tbh, I guess the chance to sign him was presented to the board who felt the ease of the transfer (Good relationship with Ajax and VDS) was to good to turn down?

It’s a long season and I think he’ll come good.

Personal opinion on DVDB, it's a squad game and the chance to pick up a player like him for the price we did comes by rarely. He's got great ability to move the ball quickly, often one touch and that suits our forwards. Pogba will eventually leave and Donny will take his place. Were people expecting him to kick bruno out the side?
