Casemiro, unbelievable how slow and unfit he looks. Couldn't be arsed to run forward twince in a minute so just hoofs it. Disgrace to call himself a professional. No doubt we'll get a rallying tweet from him at full tim though.

When Real Madrid sell you a player who has been a first team regular for a number of years it's cos they've ran the legs off them and like an old 2nd hand motor are flogging them off to get some money for them before the expensive stuff starts going wrong.

See also Varane. United were happy to oblige both times.

Dreadful finish from Garnacho, had to do better there. His finishing is generally awful. :(

Yep it is. He's still young but you have to say that he's not really showing he's worth holding onto if someone wants to pay decent money. Problem is replacing him with better probably makes it a zero sum game at best. Please Obi is coming into a bit after a pretty quiet start. We are so devoid of pace and stamina.

Slow - Onana, Maguire, De Ligt, Lindelof, Fernandes, Erksen, Casemiro, Zirkzee, Obi
Pacey - Yoro, Dalot, MAzraoui, Garnacho, Hojlund, Dorgo

The athleticism of the team just isn't there. Even when you bring back Mount, Mainoo things don't really improve. Only Amad shows the urgency that you would expect. It's no wonder Amorim is struggling to get any sort of tune out of them.

Was hoping for some entertainment after being riddled with anxiety in the earlier kick off, but this has been awful.

Obi has to be starting over Hojlund, he looks a handful.

He's certainly not looked short of the physical challenge and his positional sense is way ahead of Hojlund.
I'm liking the pace that Heaven has shown. Him and Yoro look good replacements for Evans and Lindelof.

He has most likely had his best game in a United shirt today.

Er no he hasnt.
He's done nothing of any consequence. He plays in a few little bursts and looks quite tidy but he's given the ball away loads, doesn't lead any sort of press and offers nothing in behind. Sorry Adam but I can't agree. I think he's been pretty poor.

Reckon someone will do a daft stutter run up and chip it down the middle straight into the keepers hands
