Greenlizard0 Weekend Football Thread ** spoilers ** [19th - 21st August 2016]

Fantastic debut from Pogba. Such lovely feet for a big player. Mhikitaryan looked better than Mata and Rooney had all game in his 10 minute cameo. A very skilful player and we really would be mad not to play him.

There was one where the ref looked like he was going to give a card then changed his mind. Maybe if the scoreline was different he would be, I don't know.

Yeah I saw that. I have no problem as such with them no being given unless it's obvious time wasting when the team is winning but some of them tonight were at 0-0.
 
Mkhitaryan looked good in his 15 minutes, looking forward to seeing more of him. To be honest, Utd's 4 signings all look mint. Pogba was excellent, Bailly solid again, Ibrahimovic in beast mode.
 
It's weird Miki not starting, he doesn't look unfit and he looks like he offers what we need on the right. Dropping Rooney and putting Mata in the centre and him out right would just be so much better than what we're currently going with.

Pogba it's hard not to get carried away, obviously we all want him to do well because of the huge fee. He really did look a class above tonight though, effective on the ball, great movement, passing was good and almost got a goal.

Are we going to have to hope Rooney gets injured? Again?

Sounds familiar to the last few seasons.

Other than that, everything seems different. i was getting giddy in that 10 minute spell when we were all over them like a rash.

Pogba, ngl, looks quality. Mata still isn't a wide midfielder/winger, Martial didn't get much chance to run at SOU today, although he did well when he did.

So nice not seeing us play like ****ing LVG's philosophy. Bailly, very good again, although marred by the one time he overplayed and lost the ball. Could've put us under a lot of unwarranted pressure.
