This is on MUTV. I can't find a thread for this match, please delete if it's out there already.
First thought is this 3rd kit is growing on me.
Second thought is, I really miss an actual crowd.
So just now the start of the 2nd half. 1st half we moved the ball really well. We put in a few dangerous crosses but no one got on the end of them. McTominay did really well, looks like he's been practicing his close control. TF-M has done well at CB. DVDB is looking very much like a Scholes type of player. So far it looks like he's had 100% accuracy with everything he's tried, great link play, great touches. Ighalo has held up play well too. Shaw has been showing a lot of attacking intent. In their half most of the game. Lingard had two shots on target, both well saved.
Negatives: Rashford has been poor and has given the ball away several times. He's not looking threatening. I would be excited about Dan James if he was in our U18 squad, because he looks like he's got the potential, he just doesn't look like a first team player at the moment. James and Shaw have no understanding yet. Maguire had a nap for their goal, completely left his man and was out of position, and it was one of those where the blame can't be shared. 100% Maguire's fault.
Our team without Greenwood, Pogba, Bruno would be struggling in the league, even though we are dominating Villa (while still losing).
