3 glorious wins in a row now... surely that should warrant a contract extension for the master tactician Ollie?

I was a bit unsure at first but now loving the kid. Heart on his sleeve and putting some very good performances as well. Seen a few clips of him barking orders a players throughout the game, so you can tell he isn't frightened of telling off other pro's.

Seems Fred has been given a run of games and benefiting. Listening to the commentary on Talk Sport last night they mentioned that we look to have more a defined shape to the side now, and look much better defensively and everyone working hard to press from the front.
We look difficult to beat but still lack quality in various areas.What is pleasing is there is no way we are the bottom team in terms of effort as we were under jose.
We do fade in matches though ,the high tempo stuff has its impact in the second half as we struggle to retain possession,we desperately need a controlling midfielder who can dictate the pace of the game ,there are very few of those around though.
Agree on the effort front. Everyone seems to be putting a shift in, and removing Matic we look mobile in the middle of the park.

I like the wing back system for us as well, and seems the natural fit with WB on the right.

The system is better, and whilst WB is a great stopper, he’s a pretty poor footballer. Also slows the game down too much. Needs to improve going forward.

Yeh I agree. He the best right back in the league when it comes to defending but needs to work on his play when he's got the ball going forwards. A combination of him and TAA you would have the best right back in the world.

I'd prefer him to be defensively good though and he will no doubt improve his game on the ball.

A defender is what you need; a devilish attacking defender is what you desire.

MUFC are scheduled to play 15 matches in under 2 months (could be more if they beat Colchester). More than Liverpool. Perhaps the FA will move some United fixtures?

You aren't media darlings so much, that's the problem.

It’s all for the fans. Klopp wants an excuse when the thinness of his squad is exposed.

Rashford needs to reload the gunpowder in his foot after the goal midweek.
