Manchester United v Everton : Match Thread : 8/4/23 12:30pm

Well done The Scottish Player. Deserved that.

Get in

Weird game this - some ups and downs but I think we deserve that.

Need that 2nd goal asap

lovely from sancho.

Sancho is so good at picking out those passes. The Everton box

Yaaaaaaay!

Pickfords having an absolute Miklosko here

crowd not encouraging pickford to come to united.

dunk won't be impressed by pickford's performance.

What was the record for saves in a Premier League game again?

antony picking up where he left off midweek.

Pickfords doing alright but he shouldn’t have sniffed about 4 of these saves he’s made. Rank poor finishing

Worrying the chances we missed, need that second goal though.

Bruno been brilliant, best 45 minutes Sancho has had for us, really starting to like AWB.

Didn’t expect it to play out like that at all. Can’t believe how open Everton are. That’s the most chances we’ve fluffed this season by a mile.

Just relieved we managed the one. Can’t fault the intensity and performance going forward though. More, please.

Nice to have some options on the bench too.

We should be at least 3 or 4 up. We’re playing brilliantly though. This team with a clinical centre forward *chefs kiss*

Bring Eriksen on for the last half hour.

Great half, absolute state of this place at 0-0....

Sabitzer is superb

Good half. Finishing has let us down and hasnt been great but the control of the game and build up play has been brilliant .

Bruno having his best game in a while, he’s pinging it all over the place. AWB has to be first team RB, I feel these days he even does more than dalot from an attacking perspective.

Wingers are growing into the game , sabitzer The Scottish Player and Bruno controlling the midfield well.

Everton are there for the taking . Slightly off topic but Pickford has one of those faces that you would just love to punch.

A combination of awful finishing and Pickford channeling his inner Friedel have stopped this being a rout. It could easily have been 5-0.

We need to improve in front of goal. It's fine in games like today where were going to get 7 or 8 great chances but you don't get those against better teams.

Nice assist from Sancho but completely anonymous again. Malacia is having a match to forget. It's good to see bruno running the show again. Hopefully we'll see Eriksen in the second half.

Yep. One of those where the keeper makes four saves you’d expect them to make because the finish isn’t good enough.

Best one was probably Antony’s at the end. The rest were right at him.

“It’s his job”

What a weird half

Almost totally dominant and some brilliant football but my oh my the finishing

Thank £#%&! The Scottish Player at least got one otherwise that would have been hugely frustrating

Antony is annoying with his finishing but loving his overall performance today
Working hard defensively but what a threat going forward, just needs to be more decisive

AWB is levels above Dalot
Based off the two performances this week from either of them it’s not even close

Sancho having a quiet game , he did play in a good ball for the goal. Malacia isn’t playing bad at all. He made one mistake of not tracking. Other than that he hasn’t been beaten , out of position and has kept the ball well

I’ve seen Antony move to his right foot twice in my life and both times he created a half chance.
