Good win overall. But we absolutely need to take our chances much better than that. More shots in the first half than any team in the PL has had in any half this season, and only one goal, is poor. Rashford looked like his self from last season and the two wingers were both disappointing IMO, so bloody slow the pair of them. Everton were absolutely dreadful, we won’t face a team that weak again this season. The hilarious thing for me is that I've just spent a decent portion of the last week playing FIFA 22 with my partner's young cousins while on holiday in Portugal. Sancho is so quick in those games and I'm just sat there in total bemusement because it cannot be based on real life.

Where abouts in Portugal have you been?

I hadn’t seen much of sancho before he burst on the scene for England and he looked very quick back then. A few times today we broke forward and he didn’t bust a gut to get up there with our attack but strolled forward instead. he’s been a tad better as of late but we need to see a lot more from him.

Went to this game. I love Antony. He’s one of our most important players and stats be damned. He makes the pitch so wide. Obviously there’s things to improve, but he’s way ahead of where I though he’d be first season in.

I'm with you and by the sounds it's a small few, but I think he's class, yes he's frustrating and all that, but he offers so much to the team, another season under his belt and better players in the squad and he's going to kick on loads.

A little, but game was won. I think if Pellestri came on, there’d be more bounce to the end. But it’s a Saturday after a Bank Hol Friday and there were some absolute states that I Saw, including me 😂

ETH talking up Maguire. Clever boss, I know what he’s up to…. I obviously want him sold this summer and i think he will be but that being said I don’t think it’s easy to just come into the side like Maguire has done recently when asked. I’m not making a case for him here but on a human level i respect him being able to get past all the noise that surrounds him and what goes with that. He’s played well today and he did in Europe recently. Again we didn’t have a lot of questions asked but if it means Varane can get a rest and we get a win I’ll take It.

Even though he looks very one dimensional and predictable the team always looks far better with him starting. odd one that.

Where abouts in Portugal have you been? The Algarve - Vilamoura. Was out with 12 of the girlfriend's family for a multiple birthday/one year anniversary of the patriarch dying. Was great crack and very relaxing.

Confounds me that anyone thinks that self-serving cunt deserves any respect or sympathy. Fuck Maguire.
