    Pulisic may be a good little each way bet for the golden boot if it’s a huge price. Seems to be playing well and their group is ****e plus they’ll inevitably get some dire/bribed ref from Timbuktu gifting a penalty or three.

    The 22:45 from Wolverhampton to Euston has been cancelled if anyone wants a cheap United joke.

    Easy win for Utd but they are looking better. Steps in the right direction.

    Defence is still total ****e but the attacking half looks good.

    Dominant DM would protect your defense and is very important imo, finding these ****ers is the trick, most important position in modern footy. Imo of course.

    This is why you have to admire Slot’s approach by just not having any.

    Last night's back three was an abomination, as is Dalot in any defensive role.

    de Ligt (or Maguire) , Martinez, Yoro, and Shaw instead of Dalot wider left, would be half decent.

    Reckon we'll get Conor Gallagher as a cheap stop gap next month for the DCM position.

    Baggies for us. Most confident I've felt going into a game for years so we'll probably lose.

    Saw this last night but cba to say anything as was actually watching the game itself (from behind the sofa).

    Rashford - no he's not
    Garnacho - no he's not
    Hojlund - has scored four league goals. Doesn't score for months on end, then scores again and he's the new Haaland. Just like when he was at United.

    But, someone said something on Talk Sport so............

    Rashford 2 goals in 15 games
    Garnacho 1 goal in 9 games

    not really setting the world alight are they?

    Even Hojlund with 4 goals in 10 games.....thats in Serie A, which, lets face it, these days, is a **** house league.
    Scott McTominay is like one of the top 5 best players in the league, where as in the PL he wasnt even top 5 at his club so.....

    Garnacho is pony. Should be scoring the odd worldie Tiktokers drool over while achieving nothing at Nice or Lille.

    Rashford has done ok going by his Fotmob ratings and five of those league games were as sub and he’s got four in the European Super League. Not bad for a guy who was always meant to be a squad player. I think Cunha has something but for £60m+ as a replacement he’s not done a lot either.

    Hojlund has been a mixed bag but at 22 I think he needed a loan in this country more. I think he’s got something but the move was far too soon. Zirkzee and Sesko have stunk the place out so far.

    Nah I do rate Rashford, always did.
    I think if given a run of starts, he could find decent form again.
    I agree about Garnacho, especially having watched him more closely now he is at my club.
    We pretty much swapped Madueke for the same player, but on the other wing.....a jobber who will do okay every now and then.

    Hojlund, I never saw it, whatever it was that everyone else saw, I dont, I just dont. United would have been better off buying Nico Jackson from us, he is a far better player imo. He has 3 goals in 11 games playing second fiddle to Kane, in a much better league.
