Man Utd Thread:

Ya, disappointing for the Youth Team last night. Sometimes you get that with young lads.

6 weeks ago Martial, Pogba and Herrera were all heading out the door so I'd cut the club some slack for this one. Unless you think they should have given those players contract against the will of the manager at the time. Mata should be kept for the reason MM outlined and he doesn't look to me like someone who's keen to move.

It makes no sense to let players get to this stage of a contract ,regardless of who the manager might be, at any club? Their resale value is significantly reduced, De Gea could concievably walk away this Summer for a fraction of what he's worth? Secondly all the power in negotiations is with the player who can basically demand what they like from the club in wages knowing the alternative is the club having to pay a premium maybe to buy a lesser player for the same position..

Yeah Mata may stay which is grand by me, but he's also not your typical footballer and I think at 30 almost 31 he'll realise his playing days are coming to an end and value playing more than being an backup plan.

2 great assists by Lukaku but his direct hit was a gem!

Pistols off, rapiers on!

Kerching!!!!!

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.

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!
