He's having a really good game too. Same can't be said for those behind him, but he's been great so far. So composed. I'm not sure we've had a better player (England) tonight.

He’s unbelievably talented and plays with a maturity well beyond his 18 years. So glad he’s a United player!

He has that rare ability to look like he’s got eons of space and time even when the opposition players are tight. The ability to take the ball in the heart of midfield with his back to play then in an instant turn, lose his man and always look for a forward pass.

Foden Bellingham and Kobbie have been different class tonight despite the probable loss. Bowen has worked his socks off too but there is a lack of quality elsewhere.

When you think of the absolute elite of midfielders, they all share those qualities.

If he stays injury free and gets lots of game time, it's going to be exciting to see how he develops. Such a promising young player and he doesn't look out of place at all on the international stage, despite his limited experience.

You mean Team of 2024.

That’s all of 8 PL matches. Look at the other names in there and wonder if you’ve just been had about 4 days early.

Yeah, pardon me for correcting more overhyped nonsense.

Come on the TOON

[dickymint]

Great second half. Money made and West Ham pegged back in the table

[2HFL]

How do we think tonight’s game against Brentford will go then lads?

I’m predicting 1-3.

A game that on paper we should win, but we will make things difficult for ourselves as usual

[soupdragon1]

Tough match. They always bring it vs United.

However, we've got Kobbie Messiah so should be 3pts

TBH, Rasmus has found good form, Rashford building his form of late, Garnacho is getting better every game, same for Mainoo.

I'm bullish for a strong performance. Just need to keep them out at the other end.

[bstb3]

Martinez and Casemiro back on the bench, Mount too. Getting bodies back and keeping them fit will be vital for the run in, so good signs. Villa and Spurs winning doesn't give us an opportunity to gain points on them, so important we don't drop further back (although both were games we would expect them to win, so no shock).

Hopefully we pick up where we left off...
