At least it could be said he's finding a bit of form then

No doubt an injury is on the horizon!

How were we unlucky again?

If I give you fifty chances to make a three yard putt and you miss them all, are you just an unlucky golfer?

Some brilliant football today and a real kick in the balls we didn't get the 3 points we deserved .
As for that @#%&! Clattenburg i'm struggling to think of a more anti utd referee in all my time supporting the club its like he's bursting a gut to help the opposition at every oppertunity i'd go as far as to say it was borderline cheating i'm sure if we had scored he'd have chalked it off .

Let me critique him like you have zlatan.

Skied a ridiculous shot when he should have fed it through to Ibra.
Constantly hitting the first defender and whingeing for hand balls.
Gave away a stupid free kick towards then end that killed any momentum we might have built up.

etc.

We probably would have done today, tbf

The keeper had a blinder, the referee mugging us off but those subs are never acceptable, especially when your chasing a game.

We were down to 10 men Rooney could have had 2 Next

There were two handballs but were ball to hand for my money

The Darmian trip was a pen, though

Missed one.

The others were a combination of good saves, and not getting much luck. The Heaton one in the first half another goalkeeper comes rushing out and it goes through his legs.

The worse miss was Rooney's, he actually pointed it where he wanted the ball and it ended up ballooning over the bar.

Did we have 37 shots all last season at home ?

Centre back and a reliable goal scorer needed in January please Jose

How did Pogba do?

Probably his best for Utd, Quiet opening 30 but was a constant influence on the rest of the game and had an excellent second half. Used the ball quicker, perhaps a sign of him adjusting to the tempo of the league. Needs to confirm it against better opposition than Burnley.

One complaint would be that moment he passed the ball to Gray for his one v one against Shaw, no effort to get back and if Gray was not pure tunnel vision he could have squared it for the open man that Pogba let run.

In LvG's first season RvP was struggling and serving up shit for a while. LvG said he kept him on to try and play him into form. People questioned whether it was simply favouritism. Eventually he had to drop him.

Jose now has to make a decision on his pal Zlatan.

Don't think the Rooney one as bad as some make out - a mass of bodies in front and he had to lift over and keep it down. Should've done better but Zlatan miss at the near post though
