Match Day Thread United vs Palace EFL Cup

So our defence of the League Cup kicks off tonight.

Amrabat at LB.

Hannibal starts which I'm not sure about but should put in a performance against Palace right?

Mount and Garnacho start.

 

1-0 Garnacho

Now that's what I call attacking, passing football.

Mount has been good.

 

2-0 Casemiro

See, you play well you don't have to worry about scoring.

 

Still not convinced by Hannibal.

I'd say he's doing a job and that's enough to stay on but he's been booked and wouldn't be surprised if he fcks up a challenge and gets sent off.

 

Fck it bring on Gore. I've not seen him play, got no idea if he can play on the right but I'd rather see him than Hannibal out there.

 

With a full strength team out he could be a real asset.

 

Are you watching the game?

He has a bit of personality about him, smiling and playing to the fans. I like that with a new player.

 

Mount off

Lindelof on to play at LB

Amrabat moves into midfield.

 

Yep, am watching.
Pellistri isn't finding the space to run at the defender like he does as a sub and Hannibal is a real worry with his impetuous chasing down of players (as opposed tp tracking) and colliding with them.

 

Aye Pellistri is getting crowded out too easily time and again.

Hannibal needs to come off. He's been just as bad on the ball as he is off it.

Martial is as **** as ever.

 

Great timing

 

Martial 3-0

 

Good forward's run and finish tbf.

 

Gore on for Amrabat.

Not exactly what I had in mind earlier.

 

Hannibal is just not good enough.

I said this a year or so ago, Zidane Iqbal is the better player. We should've kept him.

 

Van De Beek on for Hannibal.

Ok I take it all back

 

With the headlines written before the game, now the papers won’t sell tomorrow.

Great to see Mount got an assist.

 

I think the options we have in midfield now are very good. LOTS of options.

Looks like our centre backs are coming back as well.

Maguire had a good game.
