The old Man Utd Thread

[Mr Do 71]

LUKAKU!!!!! 

[5R7]

Good to see gomes  get on the pitch, pretty solid all round performance, took Yeovil early efforts and then dominated

[Liamness]

Rojo wants to play on the left too.

[feltmonkey]

Good professional performance. I'm really looking forward to seeing more of Sanchez. He fitted in really well.

[spork]

Highlight of the match must have been Keown slagging off Sanchez at every opportunity before giving him the man of the match. 

 

The FAs tweet about it was pretty good too.

Huddersfield/Birmingham v Manchester United fa cup, that could be ok

[5R7]

so it seems there is a lot of praise doing the rounds for Tahith chong...well...0_o

 

 

[Nicky]

thats a magnificent head of hair that lad has.

[spork]

Good to know that if the club shop still has any Fellaini wigs left over they will still be able to shift them. 

[5R7]

not gonna lie, but couple of years ,it would be nice to see a attacking mid three of gomes, gribbin, and chong! maybe with rashford in front...well, one can dream lol

[Majora]

Am I the only person bemused by that video? It was like 30 seconds of vaguely impressive stuff and 2 minutes of not a lot. To call it 'magic' is bizarre. He made a pass - stick it in the highlights reel!

While it wasn't magic it was mighty impressive for a young player making is u23 debut after being out injured for the best part of a year with a serious knee injury.

It really wasn’t. He’s a footballer and trains for this every day. Most of it was standard stuff. I’m with @Majora

[Baring]

Ok his hair is lovely and probably why he’s noticed more than others. 

[Pug]

Wonder if his nickname is Cheech.

[Guest]

He just looked to get fouled a lot, make a lot of fouls, and misplace some passes.

[5R7]

disappointed its young not shaw, but looks good!

[Gabzy]

Now that’s an attacking line-up!

[Adrock]

I was looking for Sanchez for a few seconds there, thought I'd missed him being injured or something.

 

Bloody Alexis.

[5R7]

i think ill just tuyrn this off now...

 

what the fuck was jones doing, then smalling, .and then young just fannying around!

[JPL]

BBC says under 10 seconds. What happened?

[5R7]

it was 14, and it shouldht have stood, as kane was in the utd half befalf the game kicked off!

they hoofed it lkong, nocked it down, and scored, except kane was offside. its plain as day in the replay.

[Nicky]

They bombed upfield, jones decided he didnt know how to defend a longball and a good finish. 

[5R7]

jesus fucking christ...

get jones and young off the fucking pitch..

 

[Nicky]

Summary of 2nd goal is Jones still hasnt remembered how to defend and scored an own goal instead.

[Gabzy]

Matic and Pogba being a defensive joke doesn’t help either. Fuck’s sake

[Nicky]

We need lingard off, martial moved to left, sanchez moved in the middle herrera on

id drop young for a proper defender too.

[5R7]

lukaku is a waste of a fucking player tonight, he has done fuck all! he needs to be pulled as well

[Nicky]

He nearly scored with one of the few chances hes had. The issue is the midfield. If your mid is struggling your attackers will br starved.

[Gabzy]

Midfield’s been a fucking embarrassment.

 

loooool taking off Fellaini, love it - good for you Jose. He came on and fucking strolled around for 5 minutes.
