100 for Rashford.... Defensive masterclass.

 

                                       

Not our best game as a team. The bench and second team players are not at the first team level, but what a defensive masterclass it was from the team. Martinez was colossal, despite playing against a highly physical team. Take that Carrahager. Dalot brilliant. Maguire had a bad first half both defensively and breaking the flow of the game while we were trying to attack, but he redeemed himself in the second half as he made really crucial blocks to keep us in the game. David de Gea take a bow. He can save the fucking titanic. 

Rashford with an absolute world-class finish for his 100th goal for Manchester United. That header was a prime Ronaldo header. Elanga is one-dimensional and was really ineffective in attack, due to which we didn't pose any threat from the right-hand side. 

Five clean sheets in a row for de Gea at Old Trafford. These kinds of wins test our mentality and focus, and seems like we are going in the right direction. But like I mentioned before, our second team is not on the first team level, and we need to sign players. The absence of Eriksen and Casemiro was visible as we struggled to dominate the second half like we did in the first half. Ronaldo seemed like he was trying, but it's clear that he can't keep up with the team, and he's not capable enough any more. 

Next up, Real Sociedad. Must win for the top spot in the table and direct qualification for the round of 16.
