if he had just a bit more pace and he was a bit taller, he would be world class.

sadly, he is midget slug.

Ali Dia's a better player than Lingard.

Get pereira off move mata into the middle and get James on to run at their backs

Without getting to ahead of myself, Williams is the best wing-back that has ever lived.

I'm a bit surprised the media aren't going barmy about him. The lad's 17 years old ffs.

Is it because England has a plethora of ace young full backs?

He's 19 but I agree, hard to believe he made his first senior start in October.

What a save

Stating the obvious but we really need another goal here.

how vulnerable did we look there

I don't mind saying I nearly cried.

Mata and Pereira excellent first half

Rashers a bit lackadaisical despite his goal.

I love Williams

Difference of having mata instead of lingard. Its a shame mata will provided inconsistant performances. Still its better than the consistant shit and nothingness lingard provides.

Good half. Would like an early goal in the second. Williams has been great too. Makes a difference have having a player who isnt scared to drive forward and plays at a high tempo. Shame he is only right footed.

Lindelof and his shite heading ability.
Still was a good half overall

Again we really don't look well coached in how to create chances. It all seems to be off the cuff, try a flick stuff.

The lack of width in our team is a real issue when teams defend this deep because we struggle so badly to turn them around.

This could either end up 3-0 to United or just as easily be 1-1. You never know with this lot. We surrender chances so cheaply.

No wonder Young’s £#%&!ing off. Having a tadpole in front of you who’s five times the player must be tough to take.

Pretty good half
Still we should have created and scored more than 1 given the amount of the ball we've had in the final third

Rashford has been on it from the off
Going to get over 30 this season if he stays fit

We need better from full back positions
Don’t see enough overlaps, they just seem to hold their position

The difference a Fernandes would make over Pereira in the crucial 10 role would be huge

If they start the second half quick theyll get the early goal easy. Start with a fast tempo

not sure about that.
