    Anyone notice that the very last advert at half time was a clip on a mobile saying "and that's a great come back by Bournemouth" <yikes>

    Sorry Diego I'm still in shock. Can't remember the last time we scored 3 goals :(

    You can't fault Ibrah's workrate. So much for being able to deal with the prem <laugh>

    We should've scored there. Brilliant work by Ibrah again. I'm beginning to love this guy <laugh>

    We've looked suspect down our left all game. Gaps there when Shaw is out of position and it's a bit of a worry.

    Notable performance by Blind. He's been very good. Rio-esque.

    I was talking about the way he plays and reads the game, not his inside leg measurement.

    Good performance by most except Rooney who was rubbish (I know we're not allowed to tell the truth about him on here) - Fellani was better, less of a liability, but his first thought still seems to be to pass the ball backwards rather than taking it forward into space himself, or even pass it forwards. Zlatan on fine form, plenty of energy on a hot day. Would like to see more of Mikki now that Mata seems to have kissed and made up. Top of the league !!

    No bus parking, so I guess Jose only parked the bus when he was Borebus manager

    Parking the bus comes in January. Enjoy the footy until then.

    Shaw and Martial both looked off the and not at their best. They didn't give us much down the left from an attacking point of view, and left us exposed in defence imo. Will be interesting to see if Mourinho persists with those two on one flank.

    Herrera was also disappointing - didn't really get to grips with midfield. He was poor in the CS as well. Have to be honest - I thought Mourinho was only using Fellaini in CM as a placeholder until Pogba joined, but on the last couple of displays it's more likely to be Herrera or Rooney who make way for Pogba, depending on the formation.

    Pogba partnering Fellaini as our preferred CM partnership. Who would have predicted that back in June? <laugh>

    Fellaini is looking like he is getting back to what he did well for Everton

    There's a beautiful symmetry to it.

    Moyes gets the best out of Fellaini at Everton
    Utd decide to appoint Moyes as manager instead of Mourinho
    Moyes signs Fellaini and fails to get the best out of him at Utd
    Moyes is fired
    [LVG is ignored for convenience]
    Mourinho is appointed and gets the best out of Fellaini

    It's like a Disney movie with less racial stereotyping <ok>
