Match Thread Manchester United v Everton - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

Commentators desperate to make out that's a foul. It isn't.

And it still doesn't excuse Lindelof being caught asleep with his hot water bottle at the back post.

45 more mins to be smart footballers...UTFT

Very happy after that first half, soaked up the pressure after a nervy start and are taking it to them

Gary Neville is an inbred gobshite

Neutral commentary seems a thing of the past with sky.
Oh and up the Duncan toffees.

DCL is mid air before the ball is even close to De Gea, No way he could stop himself the trailing arm is not his fault, When a keeper goes out like that you have to be 100% or you bust.

Can’t jump without lifting your arms in any case.
Hell, in the old days the keeper and ball used to end up in the net and all the ref did was point to the centre circle

Baines is past his peak but his ability to blast a corner elegantly into Lindelof's grape basket remains second to none.

It's not a foul when DCL is leaping for the cross and De Gea chooses to advance towards his arm.. basically DCL wasn't seeking to impede the keeper.

To be honest I was amazed that was given, definite contact with the keeper, sooo glad it was like, but I would have been fuming if that was the other way round. Played well this half, kept it tight and played well on the break. Miraculous considering the players out injured, sick.

That not Gary Neville it’s Roy’s bird Hayley from Corrie

 

[Milkman]

Bloody hell, he's really got them organised.

Might not be beautiful football, but my god am I happy to see the back of 4-5-1.

Winning with half a squad, big Dunc doing a dance on the sideline when we scored that’s what Sunday’s are about

Thought he was going to grab the linesman in lieu of a ball boy in truth

 

[Mashtray]

Davies needs to chill out

 

[firefighterblue]

The team is fighting for each other.
Davies needs to be very careful as the ref will be under pressure to give them a decision.
Hope whoever we get sorts the fitness out of our players. They look absolutely knackered but they need to give it their all this half

 

[Neiler]

Incredible what Dunc is doing with this depleted injury ridden team absolutely incredible.

It’s amazing the difference two simple changes can make, playing 442 hybrid and going man to man on set pieces.

The hot gate extra man thing is quite innovative tactically.

Old Trafford just not as noisy as it used to be.

Was thinking myself before, remember the days when teams used to go to Old Trafford and crap themselves, nowadays it's no different to going away too the likes of Southampton.

Ah the good old days of Andy Gray and Graeme Sharp.
