Its tedious and not new to say this, but Pogba is ****. Sure, hes naturally talented and all that, but in this league hes just a show pony you can do without.

Fcking strange one is Pogba. Against Leipzig he done fck all for much of the first half, but in one moment plays in Greenwood to score the opener and we go in 1-0 at half-time. No doubt made a difference as at 0-0 we could've come out and been done like today.

Are those moments of individual skill enough of a contribution to start regularly? I don't think so personally. Matic can fck off n' all btw.

Not disturbed as such, it's not really something i think about all day like it is for you. Still shocks me a little when mentioned though like "did that really happen?) <laugh>

Fair enough. I misunderstood that hed be LB. Shaw was your best crosser of a ball today. Hes top notch at set pieces, imo. Mobile and quick too, despite his average build stature, as Saxton would call it.

That's not saying much tbh. We haven't had a decent crosser of the ball since Beckham. Not even joking. But on that note, watch Telles, he's our best crosser now. Great at corners too, whips 'em in on point. Something I'm genuinely looking forward to after 17 years lol.

Shaw built up a great partnership with Rashford on the left, with Martial missing that has gone.
Telles has shown in his brief appearance that he is a real threat going forward and if he links with Rashford as well as Shaw does with Martial in the middle we will be much stronger.
We are essentially a counter attacking side and are still a bit clueless against a block defence but today was another problem, we were held in our own third by a high press and had no idea how to get out of it. Side ways and backwards just doesn't work in that situation and the fast attack may as well be in the stands watching.

Makes you wonder whether he bothered to watch the video of us beating Arsenal just a week ago... we denied Arsenal the space and time for all those quick balls and effectively stifled Partey ... by the second half we had completely frustrated them and they visibly wilted ... you either have to have more numbers in midfield or players that could match the work rate and movement of the likes of Partey and Elneny ... United's midfield looked like they were running through glue at times yesterday....
