We are gonna get destroyed by City. This team is just no good this season
I want convince myself we could pull off a result purely because its a derby and I’ve seen United teams under Ole beating Man City so anything can happen.
That’s one of the craziest endings in a football match that I have ever seen, incredible penalty save from Onana and I can’t believe in 2023 that Maguire won us a game. Onana and Maguire both had a great game today.
This is Onanas first Clean sheet right?
“When I started, we always win” - Maguire
He was ridiculed but results show for it. Even though I think even today he was not placed on his favorite side like the weekend
I’m just here for the Maguire/Onana revenge arc.
Hojlund’s surprised me, this boy isn’t just meat. He’s got some solid technique, great technique I should say, considering he’s a 9 and how the current “best striker in the world” isn’t expected to be able to control a ball.
Hate it when he’s subbed off. Clearly managing his minutes as he’s only 20 but the drop off when Martial comes on is like a cliff
That 1st half was a literal snoozefest, 2nd half I expected rashford to be subbed off for garnacho, starting to think the only reason rashford played well at all last season was because of shaw
Maguire has improved & fought for his position, hope he keeps it up & doesn’t get complacent
Mctominay was OK but could do a lot better thought the pen was very harsh, I was surprised he wasn’t subbed instead of Amrabat tho
Eriksen as usual a great player with great passing changed the game
I still can’t believe rashford & garnacho didn’t put their chances away!
Fernandes was nonexistent first half, then was much better 2nd half, I’m curious why we even bought mount at this point, we should have spent that 60mill on a cb ffs
There’s so many places in the squad £60m would have been better spent than on a player who basically plays the same position as Bruno
united still dropping to the Europa league I think
Well well well, who’s laughing now?
-Maguire, probably
Dodgy referee
Launch mctominay into the fucking thames. I don’t care about his fluke goals. This guy is just shit
Was it garnacho that was messing with the penalty spot? Disgraceful…
Lol really? Love him even more now
I still don’t understand why they give pens to players who just came on, literally never a good idea
Glad they did though
Abysmal ref, holy shit.
Nervy but what’s done is done. Great fucking saves today.
