Yet another Bruno assist today. He's reached Cantona levels now for me. I cannot thing of any signing that has transformed a team as much as he has. United have played 29 league games since he signed, 18 of them wins, 8 draws and 3 defeats. 62 points, 2.14 points per game. Over a 38 game season that's 81 points. As a comparison, the previous 29 games prior to his signing, were 9 wins, 9 draws, 11 defeats. 36 points, 1.24 points per game, or 47 points over a season. Since he signed, United have scored 61 goals and conceded 30, +31 In the 29 games prior to his signing, United scored 38 and conceded 39, -1. It's a stunning turnaround, and shows 2 things. 1 - Just how massive a difference the right type of quality signing can make. 2 - Just how fucked we are if he gets injured. Those Pre Bruno stats are why Ole needs to go. Absolutely disgusting how he kept his job with those stats.

Since the Arsenal home defeat, we've won 7 from 9, with 2 draws (City & Leicester). We're right in the title mix, whatever way you want to look at it. That Leicester game really irks me.

Will take that win all day long! Nervy but 3 points is in the bag.
Now pls Ole show some management and rest Bruno completely for the next game. Either play pogba or vdb as the no.10. Rashford too could do with a rest, granted that’s 90% of our creativity being rested but I am sure with pogba left and vdb center behind a striker we have enough to beat villa.
Dear I say it but I would play James to help defensively on the right, and I think martial will score as the 9.

I don’t think there’s any chance of us beating Villa without both Bruno and Rashford. Pogba has never stepped up before, wouldn’t expect him to now.

We have a proper attacking player in VdB but he never gets a start. Ideally, Donny should start Villa and Bruno to come on as a sub in case things aren't going well.

He will almost certainly have to come on.

While second is great theres not a lot of points between top and ninth, lots of improvements needed.
And thank god we`ve got Bruno.

Correct me if I am wrong but didn’t we buy Telles because he was an assist machine? If so, how have we managed to fuck him up so quickly? Or maybe he's bang average and wasn't worth bitching when we took our time before throwing 20 million for him

Fair enough but I’ll stick to my original thoughts. Villa are doing well no doubt but rashford and Bruno especially need a rest and it’s best done now.

On bailly whether he is the answer is yet to be seen but he shows the need for a combative pacy defender next to Maguire. Think they both worked well and compliment eachother. The big if is keeping him fit and if so the partnership is better than Maguire and lindelof. I feel lindelof would be competing with Maguire whilst bailly should be with axel in an ideal world

Fair enough but I’ll stick to my original thoughts. Villa are doing well no doubt but rashford and Bruno especially need a rest and it’s best done now. Bruno is among the best players in Europe in that position right now and I dont see any easy games where he can be properly rested. Villa is certainly not that game. VDB seems like an ideal choice but Bruno is on a very different level at the present time. VDB should be playing in central midfield or encouraged to do so because he has technical ability in tight spaces. This fucking bullshit about central midfield players who can only play in one central position is demoralising.
