Manchester United v Crystal Palace - EFL Cup - 26/09/23 - Official Match Thread

Was a joy to see that. No mistakes, no blunders, no scapegoat - just United playing good stuff and getting the job done. Wonderful.

Didn’t see the game but that’s a huge plus

I was happy for Maguire tbh. He did an early clearance that I expected to be an og but apart from that he was good. Suits him to have a goalkeeper who gives him another option to pass too.

Enjoyed that.

Enjoyed seeing 'Hendo' go off to a whimper. Probably expected a standing ovation the cap wearing bell...

Would love to see the enormous headed freak turn it round and become a valuable member of the squad. The beekster too.

Good start along the path tonight.

Another 3 like him around the core of the team, upper body strength, not just a player and we are challenging for everything

BBC suggesting mount was taken off due to injury I saw no suggestion of that and presumed it was just to ease him back in slowly. Unless I missed something.

Confirmed in post match Erik - pre planned substitution

just asked about Mount - ten hag said it was the plan to play him for 45

Wry smile from Brucie

Can't ask for more than that, even Slabhead didn't embarrass us.

Nice evening at the theatre onto Saturday and finally meeting jaffo at the game. ❤️❤️

Mount was a lot better in a functioning team. He's no bruno but can be an important cog.

Good to see us play relaxed football, at last. Take this into the weekend. Best bit was the fringe players who came in played with some bite, including Donny. Going to need them as the season wears on. Casemiro back to form (hopefully).
