Damn, bruno should have had that

 

[adam cool dude]

Getting the chances that is the main thing. Last season we would be no where.

 

[uscool]

Let's not get carried away

 

[Calpol]

He's one of these midfielders who doesn't really fit anywhere. He's not great going forward, not great defensively, and his passing is quite average... meh.

I'm tended to agree but I think that's exactly why Erik wanted him. Versatility and the ability to follow an instruction to the letter. Anyway, given that we are apparently "makeshift" it's not been the worst first half. If we get Rashford off for Nacho then we can win this.

Eh?

ETH disagrees with you

"I'm sure he will contribute to the success of United because he is a quality player," Ten Hag told MUTV, when asked about the player by former Reds defender Ronny Johnsen.

"His vision is to play the offensive [midfield role]. But also he wants to be multi-functional, he wants to be complete.

"When you're playing in midfield, you have to attack, but you also you have to defend. I'm sure he will bring dynamism into our game and that was one of our analysis conclusions we made after last season. We need [to be] more dynamic in the midfield department."

 

[Raymond Lin]

Casemiro looks 10lbs lighter than last season.

 

[Converge]

Dream combo there, Rashford to Mount. Wonder what the outcome was.

 

[Derek W]

Casemiro looks 10lbs lighter than last season.

Must be one less camera on him

 

[GarethSouthgate]

true, but we know from season before last, Rashy can do it. Still need to get rid as hes not consistent.

Nah, don't see it. Overrated. Averages 15 a season? He's bang average. Maybe even below average?

No point in turning up for the occasional match/season.

Agreed. The season before last was an exception as opposed to where you think his level is with last season as a one off.


My streams have been annoying tonight. Just keep freezing

Said it a few years back, he’s just another Danny Wellbeck. Flatters to deceive, can look world class on occasion but for most part is a bit pants.

 

[nemtizz]

2 months of training with ETH will have Case gaining all that weight back

 

[uscool]

Hopefully he doesn't leave it too late bringing Garnacho on

15 a season is bang average?

 

[Thekwango]

Well, we’ve had more possession and more shots than our opposition. That’s already a positive for me compared to last season

Edit: Oh and our goal hasn’t be peppered!

 

[Robbo]

I mean it wasn't awful, but not much to get excited about really.

 

[Shamikebab]

Some good spells, we should be in front. How does Silva not get carded every game? He just seems to spend the whole time shouting at the 4th official.

 

[postbox]

Highlight for me was that glorious swan dive by Maguire

Yeh bit embarrassing that one

 

[Nate75]

Antony to come on for the second half and bag a hatrick
