Not liking that only one academy product is in the 18 on that's Rashford on the bench, but it's not surprising really. Anyone know what happened to Lingard?

Injured

Easy 15-0 win for Utd.

Mourinho sending Mata a message by starting him. Clearly wants him out.

My guess, is Mata will be gone by 70mins today. (wide/forward players are usually first to be subbed anyway)
And I dont think he'll be with man utd by February 2017.

Mars Bar

Bailly is a bit mad isn't he?

deaddonkey15

Ibrahimovich penalised for challenging for a header. Makes sense.

J Mysterio

Ibe playing well.

chupacabra

Fairly pedestrian so far. Tony V is the man tho

Rooney anonymous

Mata wasted on the right

Dare I say we are missing lingard

Harry Palmr

Shaw isn't at the races and is fat.

tinpib

There is a very pedestrian, pre-season feel to this thread.

Rossi IRL

Great play there Wayne

Harry Palmr

23 minutes before the first proper shot at goal by Utd

Mars Bar

That's better from martial

J Mysterio

United very lacklustre and somewhat toothless. Attack totally severed from Defence and midfield not at the races.

Slow and ponderous

mada999

Weird why utd are parking the bus and waiting for the counter ?? they've not much pace on the pitch... cant see why both Rooney and Mata are both starting.. suppose Mourinho doesnt want to concede a goal.

(they'll prob score a hatrick each now after my comments)

In fairness that's a massive improvement over last year. It was usually the second half before they had a shot then.

Is LVG still on the sideline? Boring stuff. Controlled football but, much like salad, you don't with friends with it.

sky88

Very lvg esque play from United so far

Piss weak shot
Typical

JaMarcusHustle

I'm not going out of my way to criticize Rooney but that's a horrendously soft effort.

GreNoLi

Is Micky Tyrion Lannister on the bench?

Second half of the season you mean, some even say that they're still waiting for an LVG shot

In a few games time I'd say the starting team will be vastly different.

Bit more direct now cmon

I play liquid football with my friends, none of this pedestrian salad football United have grown accustomed to

Yep, still too much detail

razorblunt

The game is opening up a little.
Ibe showing signs he's found a final delivery.

Harry Palmr

Ibe playing better for Bournemouth than he did for Liverpool.

Even his pass to the keeper is ****e

Would really like for Bournemouth to win and Zlatan to get kicked to bits.. Mourinho has finally found a club that suits him and the fans imo - the perfect fit

Why are you only commenting on what Rooney's doing? We've far bigger problems than him. Ibrahimovic is playing a hell of a lot worse at the moment.

fuzzydunlop85

Sluggish start from United, Rooney is stinking the place out. Good to have a bit of physicality back in the side with Bailley and Ibra, we have played like a bunch of fannnies for the past few seasons. Nice to have decent options on the bench also, hopefully Rashford and Mikey get a run out in the second half.

SteelyDanJalapeno

The Rooney love in here is gas

BoJack Horseman

So, it's essentially Van Gaals team but with added slowness up top with Ibra instead of Rashers?

As I've said before ibra might do **** all then score or assist when it matters.

Rooney is the focal point of nearly every attack. It's slow, lethargic and effects the whole team.

If that'sa dive then it's a yellow card, ref...

Rooney has been surviving on his reputation for a few years now. Id play Mikhitaryan ahead of him. Not sure about Mata either.

Poor selection, poor performance.

Mars Bar

Mata!!!

Insect Overlord

Juan Mata! Delighted for him!

JaMarcusHustle

We'll take it.

Mata did well

Get in

chupacabra

Nice one.

Sky sports commentator lost the run of himself and called him Juata. :pac:

Cypher_sounds

Brilliant Mata great perseverance, quite lucky but the game needed a goal.

BoJack Horseman

Aah Bournmouth.
The defender will be so gutted.... 2 howlers in 2 seconds!
