Tony V has the tenacity and game of a headless chicken

Stop, knock the ball past the defender, accelerate, low cross in.

Spoiler

one move and it still works nearly every single time

 

[Floody]

Southampton is being way too wasteful to worry United, who seem to just be sitting off now.

 

[miserable]

dat Mou 1st season optimism

 

[Mory Dunz]

Martial unsighting

edit:
double unsighting

 

[Bo-Locks]

Some brilliant football here deserves a third goal.

 

[Floody]

United looking excellent now.

 

[NHale]

Martial really needs a goal soon. His morale is not high right now...

United looking excellent now.

Perfect time to put Mikel in and defend the result then.

 

[Brinbe]

Couldn't ask for a better start to the season. Things will look even better once they truly gel and get into the way Mou wants things. We're already shaking off the last vestiges of the LVG/Moyes era and finally playing some direct and attacking football. Everyone, from the manager to the players, look incredibly hungry to win and succeed.

I think one of the biggest early beneficiaries has been Fellaini. He's really embraced that DM/destroyer role and has given more effort than I've seen in his previous years here.

 

[Syder]

Fellaini deciding to turn up 3 years into his United career.

 

[T-Rex.]

I'm actually surprised Fellaini hasn't elbowed anyone yet. He's playing well tbf.

Hold on the horses. Still time for the classical 2-2 recover especially when United is trying to play very offensively.

I had this thought too. But Mou's the master of killing games off, so hopefully he'll be changing that attitude a bit. Some defensive subs would help

[Syder]

Customary Mata substitution.

 

[NHale]

Here it was the traditional "Bailly mistake while trying to do something cute". Get ready United fans this will happen a lot.

 

[Portugeezer]

Customary Mata substitution.

 

[D4Danger]

Rooney looks even more out of place these days.

Utd have got some real quality now and he just drags the play down.

 

[Mory Dunz]

Mkititaryan looks goood.

 

[NHale]

I would sub Rooney. Martial still has the legs unlike the pinball machine.

 

[Brinbe]

Bailly really is the new Vida. Mistake aside, he is rock solid back there

 

[Portugeezer]

I agree.

 

[NHale]

Mkititaryan will not play much under Mourinho if he keeps giving up after losing the ball.

EDIT: Smalling seems happy. Another game that Rashford plays the entire 0 minutes.

 

[Brinbe]

Mikey's getting some time too

 

[Brinbe]

That Mkhitaryan and Pogba combination... fucking incredible potential

 

[Mory Dunz]

what's pogba's stamina in fifa 17 >_>


edit:
How does pogba have handshakes with everyone that soon?
Like, it must've been a priority or something lol

 

[Audioboxer]

Gotta give credit where it is due another good defensive game for Fellaini. Same with Bailly. Arsenal am cry for not having their scouts see him. 30m is looking like good business for a young centre back this promising.

There was 15 mins in that second half with some great attacking play. Felt good. Just shows up how damn awful the LvG reign was.

Pogba is going to be amazing. Ibra is a beast as well. Martial was a let down and Rooney average again.

Still happy overall and José proving we gotta trust his team decisions as that is 3 important wins in a row now.

 

[Heebie Jeebies]

I can't wait for the derby.

 

[Syder]

I really wonder what's going on in Mourinho's head regarding Rooney. What sort of shenanigans have we got to look forward to?

Keep subbing him 5 minutes earlier each game until he is at 0 minutes and doesn't start anymore lol.

 

[Floody]

Have to say that United looked really good, great at times, dominant most of the game and looked comfortable pretty much every time Southampton attacked . I'm really disappointed in our future players.

 

[NHale]

Hey look Man United players happy. LvG will probably issue a fine today.

 

[Portugeezer]

Zlatan and Pogba be like

 

[Audioboxer]

That penalty was a dive. Or should I say he tripped himself up lol.

 

[Infernostew]

That penalty was a dive. Or should I say he tripped himself up lol.

It kinda looks like that but he had to have clipped him or he would've made a huge complaint if it were a dive.

Lovely win today. This is looking more like the exciting Man Utd I remember.

 

[Pachimari]

I'm so damn impressed by Pogba, and it was a joy to watch Manchester United today. Very nice, and very exciting!

Tomorrow it's Barcelona and Mallorca I'll watch.

 

[Blablurn]

We are playing some nice direct football under Ancelotti <3

 

[NHale]

Lacazette scored more 2 goals today.

Joel Campbell is going to Sporting (1 year loan).

it really is heynckes' bayern 2.0 <3

 

[Blablurn]

ribery looks great too right now

I just found out a friend of mine died last weekend. My friend didn't want to tell me because he was too heartbroken from it. One of our friends who has keys to his flat went to check up on him only to find him hunched over on the couch. He died in his flat alone from heart failure. The sad part is that his mom died last year.

I've lost so many people the last 3 years, I'm starting not to give a fuck about life, the only thing keeping me going is my daughter.

Looks a lil like it. I hope he's going to be alright

It's a shame when incredibly talented footballers let themselves go like that.

I too also hope he manages to get back to his old self.
