It may have been a bit daft but how many times in recent season have you seen our players just let someone go in that situation.

Ultimately I’d rather he stopped them, took the booking and didn’t allow them to get their tails up and the fans going.

They’ll improve and they have weapons. Maddison and Barnes can pull something out of nothing. We need to kill it.

Really good half that
Some very good controlled football at times

We should have created more and scored at least one more but unfortunately we’ve been a little sloppy in the final third

Varane’s best game in a red shirt

Love Malacia
Great great signing

Rashers doing well and may well score tonight (hopefully obvs) but we really need to go all out and sign a proper CF over the next couple of windows. He’s much better out wide and as a back up striker

Dalot playing well again, Mctommers too.

bruno has worked his arse off, never want to see slab with the armband again

Elanga has done ok and he puts a shift in, but the difference Antony will add with his quality is massive.

Midfield and defence excellent all round.

Dalot needs to stopped getting booked.

Elanga will probably have to stay on now to help out with dalot as he is liable to getting a second yellow when faced with a 1 vs 1

They’ve done well, if they get the second the floodgates will open. Get the second , bring on Ronaldo and SUIIIIIII your way to a 3/4-0 victory.

Martinez and malacia have been brilliant . Shaw and slab shouldn’t be allowed back into carrington let alone the squad

True: we’re seeing a bit of cynical smartness too. Malacia booking was ridiculous.

Wouldnt swap one of our defenders for any in the league....

Look like a different team...

CAS and Antony for Scott and elanga...

Whisper it

The malacia yellow was stupid too. He won the ball .

Amazing what coaching can do. Dalot and The Scottish Player actually look like footballers

Really seeing Varane quality the last few weeks. Top defender. Compliments Martinez nicely too.

The Scottish Player to right back, Casemiro on?

Bring back droopy nets, it’s miles better when a ball nestles in the net when you roll it imo.

Finding it difficult to pick anybody out, which I feel is a sign of how well we're doing as a team.

Rashford seems a lot less selfish with Sancho there. Couple of times he'd usually have ran into a dead end or taken a shot where he's found Sancho instead. Also enjoying De Gea kicking the majority of balls long. Feels almost like a punishment. "You can't be trusted with the ball, so kick it as far away from yourself as possible".

As President of the Dalot not-fan club, I have to say he's impressed me so far this season.

I’d swap Maguire and Jones for most tbh.

That actually occurred to me in the first half.

At some point in the last few weeks Ten Hag has had to say to him “Dave, we gave it a go but you’re £#%&!ing clownshoes. Next game just boot the thing upfield”.

That must have stung

Think he needs to be paired with a slightly unhinged Spanish speaker to get the best out of him.

Or not be paired with an absolute slow idiot next to him and a fat bastard next to him

Would definitely help.

Gashford again… get him off
