Rashford last minute goal nailed on imo, or maybe Martial.

 

[gianthogweed]

Niasse will make things happen in the area but just do not pass it to him outside the area he ain't a footballer

 

[d34noj]

Has Bolasie had 1 cross that's been anywhere near a blue shirt?

It's all well and good beating the full back but if you'e not going to have at least a little quality on the cross then you may as well just give it back to Rooney.

 

[Niapper]

Vlasic did well.

 

[banno]

Get off Niasse FFS
He has never been given a serious run of games

Work rate is unreal
He makes things happen

At least we look like we are actually playing and not hoofing.

So unreal all the hate of Niasse....No he is not the future but FFS As far as attittude, work rate and class, give the guy a break.

Well said. We know he isn't the most talented but he gives the defence a real battle. Out of the strikers we have I would rather have Naisse with a broken leg than DCL at the mo.

I can't believe anyone is knocking Vlasic right now. I like Lennon, but he is nowhere Niksi's level on the ball

But then people would complain about him going backwards...

 

[lesbattersby]

Lack of proper full backs hurting us in attack. The sooner we get a new left back and Coleman back the better.

I can't believe anyone is knocking Vlasic right now.

and i cant believe how much praise he is getting for doing very little.

 

[BernieH]

Rooney doing some good some bad, hows that for balance haha. Niasse keeps running into yannicks spaces breaking us down. yannick doing well, his crossing is still poo though.

HAHHAA i love the guy but yea i do cringe outside the box

needs games

 

[GrandOldTeam]

Seen this one before.

A Mata/Pogba 30+yard deflected goal.

 

[bullybeef]

Come on Blues, smash these manc gets.

 

[toffeejack]

A proper left back and we would be creating down that left hand side for fun.

This is the sad fact. Holgate is also a very defensive full back but he has got up there fair play to him. We do need a bit of magic though because we have four at attackers v 7 United defenders.

 

[Tin-Tin]

Vlasic did well.

Agree, probably wont see him for another 8 weeks. Calm and comfortable on the ball with a touch of quality.
