Was worth watching that just to see Rooneys sublime assist

Well done to the Town also..

Christ that was awful. Could very easily have got beaten there. Empty seats and empty sections....not good. The lack of a midfield platform again a huge issue. Pogba getting worse by the game, not being utilised correctly. And I think his confidence is slipping and frustration is growing. Put a good platform in behind Pogba and let him fly. Ibrahimovic is one hungry f**ker though. I was totally wrong about him when his possible transfer was first mooted. He is a real winner and is giving good leadership in a team bereft of leaders. Rooney again terrible when introduced. One overhit pass in particular was hard to explain. Jose is right to "protect" him, hopefully he gets lots more protection.

Pogba was superb last Saturday.

Fair point, badly phrased. He was good on Saturday because there was better structure to the team. If you take that game out the trend is worrying for United.

Gary Neville on the United squad last weekend.

The last 10 transfer windows have been overseen by four different managers, so what you've got is four different managers' players," You've got a plate with Bolognese, a chicken tikka masala, a roast dinner and loads of curry and gravy thrown over the top. Individually they're quite nice, but together.... Jose Mourinho's got to find which bits of that plate he doesn't like. That'll take time.

Herrara and Carrick.

Absolutely. With Pogba pushed up.

DuffleKing · September 30, 2016, 10:40:43 PM

Last Saturday it was Herrera and pogba deeper with mata pushed on.

United should be leading that half by 2 or 3-0. Stoke somehow keeping a clean sheet so far.

BennyCake · October 02, 2016, 01:40:41 PM

Damn that broken fax machine at Real!

Captain Obvious · October 02, 2016, 01:58:35 PM

A real smash and grab draw for Stoke there. The Stoke keeper had a game he will never forget. That Manchester United team will struggle for a top four finish again they might win another cup competition if they are lucky.

Michael Owen is one annoying bollox. How he gets on TV is beyond me. No original analysis and constantly trying to be the nice guy.

magpie seanie · October 03, 2016, 09:25:54 AM

That was unlucky Saturday. Team played well enough to win comfortably, just one of those days. Another comical inadvertent "assist" by Rooney!

What do Man Utd fans make of I rahimovic? I've always felt he never produced in big games and was a bit over rated although you can't knock the mans goal record. However at 33/34 I don't feel as though Man Utd should be pinning their hopes on a man who although technically good is not the most mobile and whose best days are behind him. Should be building that attack around Martial and Rashford imo.
