Helix.

Great save from De Gea to win it. Great to see Lingard getting goal after howler pass on Tuesday night.
Job done  ;D

Lucky 3 points today. Ronaldo should have got a pen in injury time but his earlier dive went against him. AWB a liability again.

DE GEA!!

Great game that and great to get the result. Thought Ronaldo should of had a penalty before theirs but maybe that just my Utd bias.

Fair play to Lingard. Great way to come back.

I still think the handball rules are idiotic.

Shaw could do nothing about that. It was so close to him, and his arms were simply where they should be for someone moving as he was.

Ronaldo, twice, was on his way down before either defender got near him.

Lingard makes up for his error v Young Boys and DeGea with a rare penalty save for a hard earned and fully deserved win.

Got out of jail there big time.
That's just, like your opinion man.

I struggle to see why United have not signed a top DM in years, the last person who did that role to the standard required was Hargreaves so you are chatting 12/13 years since his good season.
Carrick says hello. And Matic before the legs went. But yeah we need someone in that role, who is there that would improve us though?

Carrick and Matic had certain qualities but we're never top bracket DMs, they both lacked the nobility and physicality that is required.
You'd be a long time trying to find a better midfielder than Carrick

I disagree. Carrick was decent but couldn't run, tackle and had the strength of a 10 year old. His range of passing was limited too.

His passing was ok but everything else about him was hugely overrated.

Ronaldo's last penalty call should have been awarded, the others didn't look like penos and it shows what happens when officials have already made up their mind about a player.

Did he get booked for simulation? Has any player been booked lately for diving? Genuinely interested

His last penalty call was a definite penalty. How can you get such a cert so wrong even with VAR.

Rich Ricci

Watched the highlights again on MOTD last night, I think the Coufal one on ronaldo was even more of a stonewall and Zouma was nowhere near the ball whether Ronaldo was on the way down or not.

In saying all that was AWB not lucky enough to get away without conceding one too?
