It's miles better football. Still think we need to improve at the back, but I'm enjoying watching again.
Saw LVG on holiday a few weeks ago and he was gloating about having more points than Maureen at the same time last season. He didn't take into account how fooking boring the football was.

I think when Bailey comes back we will look more solid, plus Smalling is injured. Saw LVG on holiday a few weeks ago and he was gloating about having more points than Maureen at the same time last season. He didn't take into account how fooking boring the football was.

Much much much better. 4 goals again, how many times did that happen under Louis I wonder...Saw LVG on holiday a few weeks ago and he was gloating about having more points than Maureen at the same time last season. He didn't take into account how fooking boring the football was.
Anyway, its a rollercoaster with us right now so expect another dip on Sunday but good signs are there. Mikhi doing well again, Martial looking sharper even Rooney seems more up for it. Ibra still not near his best but is putting them and BFS is back too;).
Been quite impressed with Rojo and Jones as well, Rojo looks much better in the middle (and at a much higher level than last year) and Jones managing several consecutive games is just great. No doubt will get Anfield in the draw, but seems we are a cup team now
Don't know what it looked like on tv but I was at the game and we completely played them off the pitch. We look so good going forward and once we start putting the chances away, which we will, then we are going to be flying.
Miki was by far the best player on the pitch, he's got some serious class. Rooney looked right back to top form too

We looked really good. We've looked pretty good for a few games, but nut been able to put chances away.
I thought Miki, Valencia and Rooney looked really good.
I just hope he continues to play a pacey team in the league. We look far better for it.
Agreed. Didn't watch the game, but saw the goals though. Mickey looks excellent and going to be an amazing player for united. Interesting for me will be how he set-up on the weekend. No doubt changes will be made but concern is we lose all the momentum from last nights game. I thought Miki, Valencia and Rooney looked really good.

Big win if Rooney is getting back to form as well, he looked far fitter and more like his old self yesterday (beard apart). He's not likely to get it, but surely Mourinho deserves some credit for his handling of the Rooney issue - early days but it looks like he has turned it around.
Really hope we start a similar team against Everton now - build on this. If we rotate out Mkhi and Martial for Rashford and Lingard then it'd be daft imo. Rooney is suspended, Pogba to come back in would be the only change I would make. Of course if Carrick isn't fit enough to play then Pogba deeper with Mata for Rooney could also work. Got to keep this attacking unit together though as much as possible & give it time to build.
Also Bailly back in training - things are looking up

TBH I doubt he was on the forums or reading the s
t in the media about Rooney being a 'dead duck' now and so he just did his job and got a world class player back to the level (almost) he was. I think with Rooney all of a sudden he's surrounded by quality players instead of almost being the one to have to carry the team as per. Especially Micky, that lads got proper talent and he seems to link really well with Rooney, they have an almost Yorke/Cole'esque partnership forming.
I have to agree with the pundits the only difference really over recent games is the goals came las tnight. Some of our approach play has been really good these last few weeks but we've hit everything but the back of the net.
More lessons learned for Mourinho last night. I'm liking his brand of football at the minute.
