Great result, and about bloody time that we didn’t lose a game, and also didn’t lose at anfield! A shame that it’s slightly tainted with all the others at the bottom of the table matching our result this weekend.

Richarlison may lack quality, but at least he gives a ****. That’s the one thing he can’t be criticised for.
 
There were some really good performances today, particularly the 2nd half.
Danso and Richarlison were immense. The latter worked so hard and caused them loads of problems. Solanke, Tel, Sousa and Gray also very good - as were Muani, Xavi and Olusesi when they came on.
Spence improved after the break, as did Sarr but the less said about Vicario and Dragusin the better.

The CL game next week will be interesting and another positive performance will be helpful, but the next PL game is the one that will still likely decide our fate. The jury is still out until we see which version turn out next weekend.

I have the strong suspicion Danso is rested for the CL while Dragusin starts

I know he gets a bit of stick but at this moment in time in our current situation, having richarlison in the trenches is massive.
Richarlison gets a lot of stick but this is almost the first season with us that he has had a decent run of games and the more he plays the more dangerous he looks. He is a proper striker much better than Bent ever was for example and can be deadly with his head. Plus as you say he is a fighter I haven't seen his head drop once, if his spirit permeates the team we will be ok.
 
Smug bastard
It was said tongue in cheek, but it’s been a long time since Utd fans had anything to brag about. 3rd in the table will do nicely these days.
And with Liverpool (and Chelsea) slipping further behind, it’s even sweeter. Thank you Spurs for turning up today.

Forest are the losers this weekend. Most would have expected Spurs and West Ham to lose, but Forest had a home game and a chance to win.
Spurs have a battle, but should have enough quality to stay up. But a decent team is going to go down; the four teams fighting to avoid 18th all have good players and at times have looked good.

The thing is that two of them were potentially avoidable

Our plight is down to a combination of Frank not scaling up as hoped and apparently alienating 80% of the squad, last season's generational injury crisis becoming an annual event, and indecisiveness trickling down from the boardroom down to the day-to-day operations

Forest's, meanwhile, is entirely down to Lard Ass Hogan refusing to let anybody else play with his toys even though this keeps threatening to end badly for them
 
Tudor calling out the ref again. Whatever we all think of him, I can well and truly get behind him on this.

Does he have form on this at other leagues ??

Would be a big surprise if after such a short PL
lifetime that he is a PGMOL 'noticer' .
 
When is Romero available again?
It's not really set in stone

Concussion protocols call for round the clock monitoring for the first 24 hours, sometimes up to 48, and then a few days of regular monitoring while slowing reintroducing them to training starting with aerobic and cardio before eventually full training

May as well accept mickey Van & Dragusin will start against Atleti
