The kid has got a future in football which is nice to see even if it's not at the highest level.

Finally Toure did something at RB

I didn't think he had any chance but over the last few months there has been a dramatic improvement.
Think it's still quite unlikely he breaks through to the squad but I don't think we can rule it out for sure right now.
OMG shut up

ref been terrific so far, not falling for dives and theatrics. 5/5.

Wait until Adnan starts his first senior game for United.
What a terrible football match this has been so far. Both teams have been gash, petty fouls everywhere, a shit ref and players getting lazily caught offside.
It's the type of match where you feel bad about paying £40+ to watch it. Seen these games a few times too often from Liverpool and they normally end up with us conceding a shit goal whilst being frustrated at the other end.

This may help you.
pic too small, can't read.
Think how long it took someone like Cleverly to get near the first team. Wasn't really until last year that he had much of a look in.

Yep
Can't complain too much about Sakho or Toure's defending, but having fullbacks who don;t know when to overlap, when to hold, when to come inside etc is frustrating
We have a mishmash of players who take too long to look for other options and release the ball (Moses, Sturridge) and players who release it too quickly, resulting in passes going astray and gaps not getting the chance to open (Aspas, Henderson)
Forces us to come out for the second half for the first time this season

Yeah, my biggest problem with Aspas is that it always look as if he is playing at a much higher tempo to the rest of the team. This is what results in him giving away the ball so easily.
Ok if you want to play CBs at fullback, sometimes you have injuries or want to keep it tight, I understand.
But when you are missing 2 of your main creative forces (coutinho and suarez) it doesn't make any sense to me to further cripple the attack by taking out the fullbacks as well. A very strange decision from Brendan, unless he hoped to nick a goal and simply hold onto the lead somehow

Well that plan worked in 3 out of 4 games so far.

Lukaku's on for Everton. Hope he has an absolute shitter of a game.
Lambert scored pen opening day. Fonte scored from a corner. That's it
