Forgot that was where I had seen it tbf ;-)

Actually, that was the famous 3-5 against West Brom, no??

Cream and riccers

Back to my question I believe it's the most important thing Ole needs to solve right now.

Maguire is a quality player when we are on top of a team who have been handing out late Christmas presents, he can look very classy and smooth, big unit when the game is all in front of him, can dominate. We saw the issues in that first 30 though, when the game is stretched he has serious problems covering ground, turning, reading the danger. Nothing new either, it was an issue for Leicester last year as well.

Lindelof though, check out his defending for the Gayle chance, soft, passive, showed to lack both physical strength and pace in the same sequence. I don't see a long term partnership there, too many deficiencies.

Turns likes something really slow, heavy and cumbersome.

A 7/10 performance. Sort of like the days of under fergie where we'd punish teams for making mistakes and then coast. Can't complain, delighted that Greenwood scored again and Rashford's header was a peach.

We'll probably lose 1-0 at Burnley now

Good win! Newcastle were absolute shite suprisingly.

Anyway whoever doesn’t think we look better with Pogba in our midfield is either an idiot or just being incredibly biased
It obvious he’s our most talented and creative midfielder

The problem is that he wants to leave, thus his motivation to play well for us is diminished.

best game in months from Martial and nice to see us score a headed goal.

When is Mcguire going to take responsibility for the defence? We are absolute @#%&!.

He’s a professional and likes playing football
We’re not talking about Winston Bogarde here

Yes he might want to leave but he’s not going to get the big clubs sniffing unless he’s playing well as clubs like Madrid are flavour of the month in their transfer business

Correct. But his head will drop at points. He won't take responsibility.

Yeah well that’s Pogba
He’s got his flaws but he’s still our most talented and creative player

He’s been a big miss this season and his absence has cost us lots of points

we are back we are back It's good to be back it's good to be back.

He will do the basic minimum to keep himself transferable, but little more.

The goal was not McGuire’s fault. Initially The Scottish Player should have read the danger and tracked the nearest runner; Wan-Bissaka was caught upfield and Lindelof had come across, so his failure left HM with a two on one. Inexperience.

Having gotten back, Shaw should have stepped closer to the scorer instead of just ball watching. Typical Shaw unfortunately.
