Greenlizard0 Weekend Football Thread ** spoilers ** [23rd February - 1st March 2018]

Happy with that. Nothing spectacular but a solid performance against a strong team. 3 in midfield looks to be a good balance.

Lukaku was great.
 
Lingard changed the match. Martial was awful today. Too often he strolls around looking half interested. Sure you get the odd moment of brilliance but thats not enough. Jesse came on and had energy and desire, duly rewarded with a goal. Chelsea aren't a great side despite being champions. Big win for united

It is amazing how things change. Jesse has been very average but this season he has stepped up while a lot of players have gone backwards. He is also one of those players who always seems to step up in the big games and cup finals.
 
fantastic win - performance was better in the 2nd half

We're always rubbish in the first half, well, we try to absorb then push on in the 2nd half, I'm sure there's a pattern. If we don't concede then I guess the plan is to be more.attacking in the 2nd 45.

Apart from vs Arsenal away a few months ago :)

While I'm not expecting goals that quickly, we are quite sluggish from the whistle quite often and that is a concern especially against the better sides

Chelsea are going to have a hard time getting top 4 now. They still have another 2 or 3 top 6 sides to play and are now chasing the pack.

No dis-respect to Newcastle, but when Utd can loose vs them with this squad, it shows we can give away stupid points also - so top 4 wont be nailed on until the last game imo

True, on both accounts.
