By the way, I don't think Bournemouth are as bad as everyone is making out. They posed a good attacking threat. We just had too many worldies for them to cope with. There'll be plenty of teams they'll beat at home based on that performance.
Yeh that's what they did, despite being camped in our half and keeping our defence on our toes. They wanted us to win We were poor first half, but got better as the game went on. First game of the season, I'll take that. But the signs are there. And all without many of our new signings. BTW so much for Ibrah not being able to handle the prem Couldn't fault his workrate and the guy just oozes class.
I like Bailly. He looks perfect for the PL, monster of a defender Ibra's goal was poor, and Utd were poor. But 3 points on the board, just a pity Bournemouth didn't bother showing up.
I like Bailly too, he looks like a beast. Under Mourinho I'm just hoping he hones the physical side of his game properly. Hope he's a leader as well, we need one of those at the back. Blind was excellent today I thought. Every tackle was timed to perfection and he covered for the full backs when needed. That finish by Ibrah was no fluke, he placed that like any great forward. Reminded me of Henry's placement. Not always about power, but knowing where the goal / far post is. I wasn't just commenting on the goal, he tracked back but also played some lovely football.
My stream has just gone down. All I know is Theo missed the pen but somehow it's saying 1-0 to arsenal in the corner? WTF
Walcott missed the pen, then followed it up with a beautiful strike into the bottom corner 90 seconds later
Nice of your lot to be to let theo make up for missing the penalty...no wonder they call scousers friendly!
