Great goal from Martial, but he has been awful. James too. Poor Bruno is on his own.

Big win for us and we were miles better in the second half.

Bruno is awesome

Great win! Now let’s try to win two in a row!!

[Gone a bit AMG]

Great win. Wasn’t pretty but 3 points was all that was needed tonight.

Maguire is settling in now. Bro just should be picking out that slab every week.

Pogba’s agent seems to agree with you lot, the utter scumbag maggot that he is:

Manchester United would ruin Pelé and Maradona too, claims Paul Pogba’s agent Mino Raiola

Here we go again then...

Way too much influence for my liking (not just him)

[Alpinestars]

We should stop dealing with the scumbag. Ship Pogba and Jesse off ASAP, and anyone else who wants his as an agent.

[stevemcs]

A friend is very happy with Maguire, 12/1 to score anytime and 33/1 to be the last goal scorer.

Well that's it.. we are certain to loose to Watford now.

Anti-Utd bias in the media is going wild after last night. We owed the win to VAR apparently, despite both goals being correctly ruled out and the red card decision being at least arguably correct. My own view is that it was clearly not a red card offence, but the important point is that it’s obviously something on which people can disagree.

I watched a fairly comfortable win against a very poor Chelsea side. Apparently I’m wrong and it was all that terrible VAR again, making those dastardly correct decisions.

I think the bias is yours. It was definitely a red card, and the first goal was incorrectly ruled out. The 2nd goal was correctly ruled out. Man Utd were the better side and deserved to win, but VAR was useless.....again.

If Sons was a red card, so was Maguires. But both goals for Chelsea were disallowed correctly.

Incorrectly ruled out for an obvious push? I dont think thats even within the bounds of reasonable views.

Generally good performance last night. We're still missing a strong goal scorer but we knew that already. Shaw looked better than I've seen him in years, Bailly played well and we had some good play overall. Our new signings played well too (although the second was only on a few mins but nearly scored).

I think the game could have been 2-2 and Chelsea basically had the same issue as us, with no decent strikers (until the French bloke came on).

We just need consistent performances...

It’s a good start to the run in that. I thought we did ok, 2-0 away at Chelsea is never to be sniffed at and it’s our first double over them for over 20 years puts some perspective on it as well! Puts us 3 points off 4th with Chelsea or Spurs dropping points this weekend. Can’t see Sheffield dropping points this weekend though.

Consistency now please Ole. Which will come with a little run!

Great to see Bailly back as well. He still looks like he’s got a mistake in him and his tackling can make one wince but he’s a better option than calamity.

A positive couple of days, roll on Thursday.

How can you not love Bailly

His first game in 10 months and he had a stormer after a dodgy first 10 mins. Him and Maguire could form a great partnership imo and maybe a back three of Bailly Maguire and Lindelof could be an option?
