Manchester United V Brentford. 8pm Sky Sports : Official Match Thread ..

We’ve been excellent since we moved to Discord.

Is this Fred’s last match day?

If that's Ronaldo's last game at OT then a fitting end to the greatest player to ever wear the shirt. To wear any shirt. Sublime.

Even a stopped clock is correct twice a day.

He's here next season, did the "staying here" fingers after the pen....

Definitely staying

Needs to go.

Surprisingly good performance
Once again it was the old guard of Ronaldo, Mata and Matic that were by the far our best players

Left a sour taste in my mouth that none of the young lads got the last 20 minutes
Disappointed in Ralf there

Anyway at the least the home campaign is over so no more disgraceful OT performances as there’s been enough already this season

McTommers, Fred and Varan were gonna go down the tunnel before being told to get back...

Enjoyed that wonder what score bilbo baggins will say Brentford should have won

Just be grateful it’s the last we see of them

Convinced if Mata had played more, we would have more points in the bag.

Just a lovely footballer.

He did a best ever United team thing and was talking about fights with Schmeichel, Pallister and that VdS would’ve got it had he stayed at the club a few more weeks. A fair few jabs at Neville too

Schmeichel
Neville
Irwin
Pallister
Stam
Ince
Robson
Beckham
Giggs
Ronaldo
Rooney

In case you were wondering. It was a decent watch tbf.

Moving Bruno into the attack and having a player that can actually pass the ball in midfield, and is prepared to play the more adventurous pass, seems such a simple idea.

Mata was wasted out on the wing for most of his time here. Why so many managers chose not to give him a run through the middle which allows him to have more space and opens up the pitch more is something that doesn't make sense to me. The only reason I can think of is they believed he was not good enough to be building a team around. Chelsea won a Champions League with him in the No 10 spot though. I think it was still worth a try at some point. Especially given how many high profile forwards were signed after him and flopped but he still contributed to the team.

He has excellent technique, his first touch is world class, he can pick a pass still, when he was younger he scored a lot of goals. He still had a fine career for United despite not being utilised properly and judging on last night he should have been used more this season.

Because managers have always had what they thought were 'better' players in his position.

Moyes and LVG had Wazza
Jose/Ole Pogba
Ole/Ragnick Bruno


All occupy that role.

Another reason why Pogba was an awful signing.
