Great win, but I feel like it's just papering over the cracks tbh


van gaal will not be sacked we have him till the end of the season so we have to learn to deal with it!

Just hope we can grind results like today a few more times then we will be safe in top 4.

Exactly this, let's go on a run of wins and see where it takes us.
Everyone in the league is playing poorly, we'll just have to take each game as it comes.

plus we are definitely making signings this january our squad will only get stronger

Sign Felipe, Stones and Lukaku pls
Martial is saving LVG's ass right now.

Unbelievably good.

Really? He's missed some good chances in the last few matches.

He definitely is something special. He gets past players so easily, and he's still so young.
Nothing much to really take from that i don't think, as it's nothing we haven't seen already this season. First half was dreadful but as soon as we get some urgency in our play, surprise surprise, we look like scoring.

Who and what do you think we'll sign?

I honestly think we just need a striker for this January transfer window.
Maybe a cover full back. We'll probably get a CB in the summer.

Young showed today that he's our best winger and we should play him there.
Young Memphis Mata Martial. More than enough cover in the wide areas, not sure if we'll get any quality players in the transfer window.

Oh and if someone could just take Fellani, i would be so grateful

And he's also scored some crucial goals. More so than the guy who's moved him out of position.
If it wasn't for him we would not have won today.

his touch is not so good though he needs to work on that but him and young today were superb!

That's what we want to see at Man Utd....wingers/CF's taking on defenders man on man with pace and create something!

We need to sign Stones ASAP, he would be a decent right back/ centre back for us instead of ****ty Jones or McNair!

Then we need an attacking right midfielder....Felipe Anderson is perfect for that position, he's just like Martial very direct always wants to beat defenders and create something....he plays like Neymar very similar style of play!

Then we need a striker.....Buy Lukaku or Harry Kane!

That would be such a deadly team omg :love: :coma:

Martial played fantastic yet again. He is direct, quick and always thinking about taking it forward. Rooney also played well but i would like him to be scoring week in week out. Ashley Young was class. Him and martial was the main source of threat on either side of pitch. Overall its a good performance but i would like it if we go on a good run

yeah we need an attacking right midfielder who does the same on the other side because at the moment we are creating all our chances mostly from the left which can be easily defended against if teams catch on to it.....and its always a combination of martial/young....although in this game today young seemed to play on the right I think.

Hmm i doubt everton will let him go in january, maybe in the summer.
Your striker targets are ambitious :P hahah definitely not going to get either in the next month.

Not too sure on Felipe anderson, means mata or herrera loses their place in the team. Guess we have to wait and see.

Tbh i wouldnt be surprised if we didn't sign anyone

yh ur right
we need to get someone on the right
Lukaku in the Summer when Rooney leaves would be perfect fit.
First half terrible. Second half better. Martial Excellent

LVG is learning to make the best of a squad that other managers would achieve less with.
Leaving Fellani on the bench again was another good decision.

Agree. But he's had chances to save LvG's bacon in recent weeks and hasn't taken them.
