Leicester were absolute and utter tripe, for the first 15/20mns the game was completely littered with mistakes by both sides, its hard to remember a worse opening to a game by both sides in a long while.

Its true once United went back to playing Rashford on the left it actually changed the game and allowed the MF to get on the ball more.

Miki took his goal really well and after the Leicester just imploded so it was a strange enough game with no real threat coming from them.

The team is totally crying out for a LB/ Wing Back. Think Rojo has improved massively as a CB but he doesnt give you that push on the wing that is required to balance the team. Every time an attack comes down the left, the ball goes inside and then it is a diagonal across to Valencia, really unbalanced. It is fortunate at the minute that Valencia is in beast mode and playing really well.

Hard game to read really, but but hopefully the confidence will go up and the goals will start to flow a bit more.

PS Mata's stats must be ridiculous.

Anniversary seems to come around more quickly every year. RIP to the Babes.

Seems no length since the 50th and the 60th is next year. Bobby Charlton still going strong fair play to him.

Was just thinking the same thing. He's certainly the embodiment of all that's good (the small tiny bit) in Manchester United.

How many survivors are left in addition to Charlton?

Of the players that survived it's just Bobby and Harry Gregg left. There are other survivors, a crew member and some members of the general public including the pregnant woman that Harry Gregg pulled from the wreckage.

How bad are Leicester?
Still not convinced Utd can break down decent teams as Leicester lay down like bitches.

Yous havent really replaced the flying wingers though that young lad Rashford could do a job.

Is Martial still having problems with the females? Seems completed distracted

I think he was having problems in that department last season when he was playing brilliant stuff. His biggest problem is the manager I think.

Bar the picture of them on the pitch in Belgrade this one is the most used image of the Busby Babes. I always find it spooky that all those that died are on one side of the picture (in colour). Maybe they were stood with their mates and also sat with them on the plane? maybe not but it always looks an oddity to me..

All lookers in any case so not a bad problem to have.

JM does that with certain players - just look at his time in Chelsea & RM. Egomaniac.
Ironic the person doing a lot to save him this season is Mata whom he gave the boot to

Bad enough you are polluting the Liverpool thread without starting in here too.

Polluting?
Which of my posts here are 'polluting' as you so eloquently put it?
