Brilliant counter attacking play. Ropey enough at the back though, couldn't believe how naive Arsenal were leaving Pogba free to set up counter attacks. Burnley next up on Tuesday. 8 wins in a row - unreal.
Inaugural Football Championship Prediction Winner.

Apart from a soft goal conceded that was a near perfect away performance from United tonight. Cool calm and composed on and off the field. Lukaku had a decent game and had 2 assists but how BBC gave him MOTM instead of Herrera,Bailly,Lindelof or Pogba was a bit puzzling.

Delighted for big Rom excellent performance from the newly chosen whipping boy.

Mourinho losing to the filth was a blessing in disguise. That result was the tipping point as we got too used to taking the points home and away.

An amazing run of results and playing great football. Actually look forward to games again. If Utd keep this up they will become a very desirable club to be at and will have no problem attracting the play they want.

The Liverpool game was signposted as the game to sack Mourinho by the board. They clearly seen a pocket of winnable games where OGS could build up team morale. No way was OGS going to be facing Liverpool as his first or second game in charge.

The upturn of results since Ole took over just copper fasten the belief that Mourinho was even worse than many suspected. There is an abundance of good players at the club who were simply underperforming badly because things had got so toxic. All of a sudden there is hope of a CL place and there are 2 cups still to aim for. The though also can't be escaped as to how differently the season might have panned out had Mourinho been gone last summer.

It is looking increasingly likley that Solskjaer will be given the job full time although I think that will ultimately depend on whether he is able to salvage a top 4 finish or win a cup.

True. Drew with Arsenal, Palace and Wolves at home.  Lost to Spurs,West Ham Brighton under Jose this season. If United don't reach the top 4 you can't help looking back at those silly 15 points dropped.

Why not? Liverpool have been practically banker points every season for United.

Nice win for u18s at Anfield  to dump Liverpool out of the League Cup.  They were 2-0 down and came back to win 3-2. Schweet!

Saw the goals. Two free kicks by Greenwood and a lovely bit of skill on the right by him to create the other one. He does look good.

Thought it was a decent performance Friday night, Arsenal were a touch powder puff but all the same the structure starting to look better.

Still think a CH would make a massive difference to any of the ones that are already there, Lindelof starting to look more assured and better on the ball too.

Real threat on the counter with the pace and good to see Lakaku working hard for the team.

Pogba quiet in the first half but roared into in the second and could have scored and created more goals on the break.

Chelsea away in round 5.

I just knew that was coming.

Carmen Stateside

That should see United out of the cup.  Can concentrate on getting 6th in the league then
