I see Pogba returned to his usual disinterested self.

I am nigh on fucking done with Rashford. That man should not start games for us till he decides he's going to actually focus on his primary job which is football.
Great result. I'll take it.

I turned it off at half time that was worst 45 minutes, I think I 've ever seen from any team. I assume we got an against the run of play equaliser ?

Second half was better, especially the last 15 minutes. Still not great though, but we did enough. They never wanted to push on for the second. They hit the bar at the end but I think he was offside.

I’ve never been his biggest fan but good grief that’s some decline. If he wasn’t an academy player and we had competent men making football decisions we’d get a fair price while his stock is still high. I expect he’ll get a 5 and a half year deal soon enough though.

Shaw,Rashford,Bruno,Pogba,Maguire & Fred's inability to complete the basic's is mind boggling at time, Approx 25 mins in Bruno had 11 touches & had given it away 9 times.

That goal by João Félix was pretty fantastic, reminded me of RVP. Classy.

I am trying to convince myself the formation change was the cause of such an abject performance in the first half. Maguire at it again, Rashford poor thinking, Fred thinking of his next interview, Lindelof lost at sea, the list can go on.
We need someone that really can sit and dictate play in the middle, person can also get stuck in if need be and has mobility. If Wolves are ready to play at £30-£35 million, I'd be getting Neves in as first signing, it will really calm my nerves.

Martial gets hammered while Rashford gets away with it on a weekly basis. His academy status is a big part of that hypocrisy. He can't even do the basics at the moment like controlling a football under no pressure. I've lost patience with him because we need the Rashford of 18 months ago at the present time and we have to rely on a kid to get us a goal. Rashford is long overdue a spell on the bench.

I agree to some degree, but they paid £113m (apparently) - gigantic fee for a 19 year old. He hit 20 goals in 43 games for Benfica in the season before he left. Since then, he's scored 10 goals in 40 games, and 5* in 25* games in the two seasons thereafter. Not exactly stratospheric numbers, but it's at least partly attributable to playing under Simeone I'd say!

Even after they had us on the ropes yesterday they didn't dominate like they could have. Said it yesterday he belongs at Real and Bayern.

That Joao Felix performance last night was his coming out party. He's super talented. Probably at the wrong club, but still young and he'll get better. If Siemone leaves Atleti this Summer, you build your team around Felix.

If Siemone leaves Atleti this Summer, you build your team around Felix. He has a wonderful,natural talent, which has all but been snuffed out by Siemione .
