United PL (A) | Man of the Match

[PragueBlue]

No idea why we didn't start with Grealish Haaland and Foden up front, as we did in the first derby. We cut them apart, Foden scores 3 from the right wing and win 6-3 but then we never play the same front 3 again. Very strange.

Also think KDB, despite his assist, looks so off the pace that we need to try the Rodri, Gundogan and Bernardo midfield that did so well for us a couple of seasons ago.

Rodri.
We're winning nothing this season - and before anyone starts, that's based on performances since we resumed after the WC not today.
We're on the verge of a top 4 fight if we're not careful against the Spuds Thursday

Rodri was superb. Played Casemiro off the park .

Akanji was good too.

Agree regarding Rodri but thought Akanji was a bit of a headless chicken at times today. Always dashing forward to try and win the ball and leaving too much space behind.

 

[raybo]

Rodri was exceptional unfortunate to be on the losing side. Some of our players way off form, hopefully we get back up and running soon.

 

[glasg0wblue]

Rodri, easy choice.

 

[Zenmanc]

I'm saying nothing.

You sure?

 

[RodneyRodney]

Rodri and Grealish obvious choices...but Akanji deserves a lot of credit for his performance in critical moments imo.

Akanji was a statue for Rashford's goal - inexcusable ; apart from that, though , excellent

 

[SJT]

No pace in that team, any counter attacking crew can do us, expected this - never felt comfortable.

This keepie football is boring the fuck out of me and has been a while now.

ONE SHOT ON GOAL IN TWO GAMES...is that good enough?

 

[Jesus H Gabz]

Rodri, immense but can’t do it on his own
