But according to this forum MU are Not a Bench Mark worth following....

They will still be there if there about at the end of the season.

They look very much like a team where the stars have decided Ole isn’t for them.

Just watched Match of The Day after sitting down to watch it last night at 10.25 and immediately falling asleep.

 

Was cackling as I watched the Leicester goals go in. At the risk of sounding sentimental, I loved how happy the players looked, especially those that it hasn't really been happening for of late

Oh yeah can't question his professionalism at all and don't begrudge him the move. We got double what he was worth so I was over the moon when he left. 

 

That second season though he constantly looked like he was shifting an invisible wardrobe

 

 

I first read this as looked like he was standing inside an invisible wardrobe, then I thought of Daka's goal...

I'm not sure we came up against the best Man U side, but they hadn't lost in 29 games we have to give our team credit.

 

We played better and I think we have to look at the defence and see who wasn't playing.

Castagne was brought in as a replacement for Chilwell, but due to Pereiras injury he has player mainly on the right and appeared to be battling Ricardo for a game. We should be playing both.

Tielemans controlled the midfield, 

Maddison showed signs of improvement, was sharp and was a massive plus

BR had suggested he needs to find a way of playing 2 up front so both Iheanacho and Vardy can start, he is trying things to improve our form and this match showed we are looking forward and upwards again

Wanted to mention I thought it was great to hear applause for Markus Rashford when he came on. Rightfully recognised for the good work he’s doing off the field. Credit to the terraces for that.

Best performance so far this season, I was worried we were going to throw it away when soup kitchen equalised but that didnt last long thanks to JV 

Apologies for any offence caused here, I'd had a few brandys late last night and it was a poor attempt to be funny,  I'll make a donation to Fareshare today once again sorry lads.

There were a few divs behind me chanting 'you let your country down'.

 

Think were the same idiots who booed when Perez came on.

You did nothing wrong pal, nothing to apologise for. 

[MalletFox]

Still absolutely buzzing about the performance and result yesterday. Was a great performance, lots of energy, some quality goals and we beat a team with some very good players!!

 

hopefully this is the shot in the arm our season needed!

yes, there was only scattered applause around me, but definately a few including myself who applauded him.

 

I've been banging on to my kids all summer about what a marvelous example he is with all his off field work so was determined to set an example to them by applauding him on.

 

Still pissed off when he scored though, but only for about 15 seconds!!

Baffling - how could anyone possibly claim that he did such a thing? On what planet do some people live?

[gerblod]

United failed to do what a string of teams have done to us this season - they didn't press the defence. Sure, Evans imposed his brain and technique on the game, yet they allowed that all-important access out of defence. And didn't we blossom with that freedom.

Also Castagne and Pereira showed what a couple of calm heads could do.

Tielemans was able to concentrate on his immaculate distribution and touch.

I hope BR has now found a formation which he can use and tweak and ultimately build on to get the season back on track.

No probs up front - we have three sharpshooters on form - the problem was always getting the ball out from the back. BR needs to protect Evans by early subbings. That means early goals and leads. But the search must go on for someone who can do his job equally as well. In the meantime perhaps we could get Mags on loan or swap him for Vestagaard. No?

I was about to type "unbelieveable" but then I remember some of the morons that follow us and it is distinctly believable, unfortuantely

Watched MOTD again , it’s put another smile on my face.

….walking out of the king Powet yesterday it was great to see a big smile on everyone’s face.

More of that please.👍

[Sol thewall Bamba]

Praying this is the end of Vestegaard and Bertrand. Already seen more than enough to say they shouldn't be anywhere near. 

 

Hope we just go for it in more games now, if nothing else it's much more entertaining!

My fellow fans in L1 really are some of the dumbest people in that ground I'm afraid.

STILL Boo the taking the knee and kept Booing Rashford every time he touched it.

If your in L1 and one of these ****tards you should grow up and learn something. Your an embarrassment  to yourself.

Sadly I didn't hear any clapping near me, just some singing you let your country down. Probably as far from the truth as you can get

[Happy Fox]

If we play like that till the end of the season, we finish top 4 no question about it.

 

High intensity aggression that was the best display of the season, if we can produce that against the so called lesser teams we will do well this season. Hopefully this will give the players the much needed confidence boost to push us upwards

 

[Switzfox]

I picked the right game to come back from Switzerland for.  Still buzzing.  Was just so nice to see us play how we all know we can.   Well done brendan for changing it up.  Let's go on a nice little run now and enjoy the season.

Really?

You must have been hearing things, I only heard jeers for him.

[drumbeat]

Rat face was quiet wasn't he? Our boys done good in the middle there. Was Ronaldo that guy up front all alone?

Nope. 
 

Where I’m sat in SK2 there were audible applause for Rashford when he came on.
