GWT: Premier League Round 1

Offside aside, TF was Rashford doing there?

I think he went to fake a shot but then got the ball caught in his feet a bit so tried to cut it back. It wasn't a good piece of attacking play either way.

 

[les Habs]

Ref should be more evenhanded there and before this latest play talk to Maddison.

As for Fred, I missed the first half but but the match I saw in preseason he looked good.

He was very poor in the first half. Seems to be coming into it a bit after half.

He did well just prior to that us My his pace, but then Gray just dumped him.

 

[East Coast Bias]

Are you saying Fred did not kick out at Gray while he was on the deck?

Not saying it's worth a retro, but clearly some bad intentions there to me.

Worst tackle I've seen this season IMO.

 

[Jersey Fresh]

Alexis has been really bad.

 

[hatterson]

Alexis has been brutal today. Probably the worst player on the pitch.

 

[hatterson]

Bailly goat

 

[kingsboy11]

Alexis is not on the same page with anyone else on United.

 

[hatterson]

I hope Lukaku is coming on for Sanchez

 

[les Habs]

Nice sequence there thanks to the hard work of Rashford.

 

[hatterson]

For real though, if you're a ref and Mata says something happened, just believe him.

 

[hatterson]

Amazing pass by Fred there

 

[les Habs]

Excellent work from Vardy there.

 

[Prntscrn]

Jeez that was some lazy, sloppy play by Shaw

 

[hatterson]

Not a great debut by Fred, although his second half was better.

 

[hatterson]

What a save there.

 

[les Habs]

Schmeichel keeping them alive there.

 

[HoseEmDown]

This game is a perfect example of how United somehow always finish top 4. They are being outplayed by a mid table club at home yet are winning and probably will hold on for the 3 points. They are masters of picking up the full 3 when they should just draw.

If by "always" you mean only once in 5 seasons since Sir Alex left, sure.

 

[hatterson]

Luke Shaw's first senior goal.

 

[Jussi]

Who else but Shaw!!!

 

[les Habs]

Shaw created some of that on his own (with a poor touch), but still what was that someone was saying earlier today about Mata not being able to create?

 

[hatterson]

Really good 80 minutes from Pogba too. I'm surprised it was that long honestly, I was expecting more like 65 or 70 at most.
