United would have won that with Casemiro, the partnership of Sabitzer and Fred didn't look to promising; Fred was dreadful, so poor. He's played really well recently but thats been alongside Casemiro. Rashford has been outstanding for a while, leaving him out wide right with Weghorst looking ponderous at centre forward didn't work. If Martial isn't going to be fit then I hope Rashford plays up front given we've got plenty of options in wide areas,

Garnacho getting a bit of stick which is unfair, he should have gone down when he went round the keeper though; For his first chance Weghorst didn't have the nous to run to the front post which would have dragged the defender with him so Garnacho would have had a lot more time. 

We've so many games and nearly every league games goes right down the last kick of the ball, its bound to play a part. If we beat Barca then March will be the same as Feb, if everyone was fit it wouldn't be much as an issue but Wan Bisaka, Casemiro, Eriksen, McTominay, Anthony & Martial all missed last night.

Totally agree MM

Casemiro makes this team tick and seems to be difficult for them to find a combination to work when he isnt available.

The fact the team are left in 4 competitions is going to stretch the squad and it actually shows the lack of depth, plenty of numbers but in terms of quality not that deep at all.

Get the Barca games sorted and see how that goes and go for the LC Final in a big way. I would imagine these will be the determining games as to how the season finishes.

Great to get a win there today even if it wasn't the most convincing of performances. Utd were under the cosh there for 70 mins but found a way to get it done in the end. Hopefully Rashford can keep his incredible run of form going.

Maguire looked very dodgy in possession and lucky to get away with a couple. Big Wout looks completely out of place. Tried to convince myself he might not do too badly but he doesn't really fit into this teams style of play.

Hard earned and important away win this afternoon that moves United now 7 points ahead of 5th spot.

Performance to be expected a tired one in a hectic fixture schedule. Rashford continues to chip in with important goals and Garnacho silenced his critics after his misses midweek v Leeds.

Very tough away match against La Liga leaders Barcelona next. Will be without the suspended Martínez, Sabitzer and the injury list of Antony, Mctominay, De Beek, Martial, Eriksen.  A narrow defeat will likely be decent result to bring back to Old Trafford.

Turf

With Arsenal dropping points yesterday that puts Man United back in the title race.

Only a matter of time before a champions league club comes in for Rashford. He's unplayable at the moment .

Some game, happy with that result.

Good quality contest in Camp Nou and to be expected with 1st in La Liga v 3rd in the Premier league in action.

Just typical 2-2 away and away goals is scrapped.

Ten Hag probably won't be happy with the manner of the goals conceded and how Rashford, Weghorst, Sancho all missed good chances to score. A draw was probably a fair result and it sets it up for intriguing 2nd leg in Old Trafford.


Captain Scarlet

It's a fair mark of what ETH has done. Like that team under others would have not got a sniff, but they could have won. Lucky with the call for Fred's handball but plenty of chances.

If things move on, Rashford might be the striker with Garnacho. Sancho and the likes out wide. Even as a striker many pull to the left anyway eg Henry so he wouln't need to be stationed straight down the middle.

Great craic of a game!
them mysterons are always killing me but im grand after a few days.sickenin aul dose all the same.

Good result away from home. Martinez back for next game? Anyone else?

It looked a poor decision not to review the barge on Rashford when he was going through on goal, but that was balanced out by the Fred handball which is nearly always given as a penalty these days.

I'm pretty sure it was reviewed but it was outside the box so VAR can't do anything about it.

keep her low this half

VAR should have been looking at it as a red card offence denying a goal scoring opportunity.
