Good result should have been more. Need a striker though

Quality week for us, 9 points and every single team we count as competition dropped points.
Remember when it was always the exact opposite?

The most pleasing part of Rashford's goal was his anticipation of the ball into the box. He put his foot down to get to that pass.

Lindelof must love Maguire being at OT; I do feel that he takes a lot of the heat that would be directed at him instead. He's every bit as bad as Maguire, they are both equally incompetent and need to go. Incorrect.

Can't complain too much about a 3-0 win especially as we weren't at full strength. We now have a nice 5 point lead over Tottenham and a 7 point lead over Liverpool and are level on points with Newcastle with a game in hand.
And if Rashford can keep up this form of scoring almost every game and stay fit then maybe we will get away with not signing a striker in January and still make top 4 comfortably.
Casemiro is absolutely fantastic. We really are lucky to have him.

Shaw was decent going forward, a bit dodge defensively. We can afford that against most teams in this League (look at TAA) but we have to keep an eye on it against the top few.
Fernandes had more of an on night - is he just better without the added burden of the captaincy?
Martial is such a consistent let down in comparison to what you think he should be capable of. FFS man.
Not quite sure what Rashford has been eating. He seems like a different player. Direct, smelling chances, making the correct decisions on and off the ball. All the shit he has been appalling at is suddenly all working. All fingers and toes crossed he can keep this version.
There is actually some semblance of coherency in our football at the moment and it all comes from Casemiro. Give that man the armband.
We have seen decent runs like this before, so any optimism is extrahemely cautious, but ten Hag seems to be getting something from the squad. Reasons to be positive.
Maguire was pathetic. Who saw that coming?

We’ve played some absolute dross since the World Cup, and that continues on Friday and Tuesday, bjt you can o my best what’s in front of you, and we’re beating these teams well.
Shout out Fred who was fantastic when he came on.

How on Earth did he walk off after that.. Even if it was an accident it was reckless and at least a yellow.

How on Earth did he walk off after that.. Hope the lad is ok and its not too serious. Looked bad at the time, this makes it looked even worse. Makes you wonder how the fuck he managed to go off the pitch off his own steam after that.

Imagine a foreign player having the last 12 plus months he’s had .

Just need this run to keep going now. Don't do what we've done so many times before, getting ahead of ourselves and it going to shit.
There's genuine belief in this team now. Finally playing like a team again. Get that striker in asap and let's push on.
