Should make it easier really.

Not really, difficult to shine and look good when it’s a piece of piss and you’re not pushing it.

Pereira the pre-season kid returns

Matic, Pereira and Lingard was practically our first choice midfield 18 months ago

Piece of piss ? Should have been level at the end of that half.

Something wrong if they are not pushing it in one of of few chances many of them will get this season. They just let the half drift by them. It was shite, tbh.

Nice goal.

Better start by this side.

Good goal.

Destroyed the keeper.

Nice goal

Lovely goal

Pellistri going round the keeper George Best style
Don’t see players doing that much these days

Him and Shoretire are real talents
You can see that

Hopefully, we can get rid of Pereira and Lingard asap.

Lovely goal indeed. Big talent Pellestri. Shoretire will be an absolute star.

keeper

who is the co-commentator?

Ben Thornley I think.

Who is ?

Decent cameo from Pellistri. Wonder where he will end up on loan. Apparently Alaves wanted him back.

Much better 2nd half

Helped having Matic in the middle controlling things

Pellistri and Shoretire of the young players definitely stood out that half

Sounds like Heaton won’t be happy with being 3rd choice

One of Henderson or De Gea leaving?

With Heaton being a homegrown academy graduate I wonder if it means we’re cashing in on Henderson instead of ditching that massive @#%&! De Gea.

He said he didn't like the deal, but he had to go along with it.

Enjoyed that
