Jak Awesome night. Hudds ... Best player on the pitch (Jak gets the nodd for the clean sheet, we aint had many of those have we?) Meyler (Great night) A different player atm I actually feel bad about leaving so many out. Harree Harree ... Future captain if he stays.
Think with more time to get used to it RB may actually be his best position, he has the necessary fitness and desire, gets forward well, and has less responsibility on the ball than when in CM
Huddlestone Jak Meyler I'd love to know how much ground Meyler covered today. Huddlestone is just on another level, he was outstanding today. Credit to Jak, improving all the time, is it harsh I'm still waiting for him to make a huge howler haha? But he deserves his success, seems to have worked hard and its paying off.
1. Thud. He's still got the odd free kick giveaway in his locker, but his calmness on the ball under pressure is unbelievable. The likes of Carrick doing a similar job often get the plaudits but the way he coolly passes the ball out of danger areas is immense. 2. Jak. The save from Mata may have been "in the right place at the right time" but that's just it, he was. And it was superb. Zlatan is never gonna credit a keeper. 3. Harry. Kept the big man quiet, and had a few forays upfield. Naisse could be classed as lucky to stay on the pitch. Ranocchia looked decent. Markovic I'm unsure about - could have been a quality goal but seemed a little lazy compared to others in defending. But that said, a great team effort.
I'm amazed people so many of you are posting on here rather than in a Manchester pub or driving back. (Or did the rules change?)
them rules were made up cos I wouldnt share my links............so "if you didnt see it, you cant vote".. thing is? I did see.. but OLM didnt like that. <shrug>
Daws 'Arry The Jak/Marko/Thudd. Can't separate these three. The rest played out of their skins except, for me, Meyler was pretty iffy. Several errors and poor decisions, interspersed with a few (very) high points. Not sure how often Silva will play him in his fast-paced style -- which I really enjoy watching. An awesome game. It may have given me tea poisoning; the missus has had to go out for more (fat-free) milk.
