I prefer talking about Ronaldo situation after match analysis. Amazing from Garnacho once again as he scores a winner in the last minute of the game to hand United all 3 points in the last game before the 6-week world cup break. We dominated the game in the first half, although we missed a lot of clear-cut chances that could've won us the game by a 3 or 4 goal margin. We clearly missed Dalot, as Malacia was cooked by Willian for the whole game. He was good at recoveries, but we clearly missed Dalot. We clearly play better without Ronaldo in the team, the fluidity in attack is just infinitely better when Ronaldo is not there. I believe Martial staying fit for the rest of the season is crucial for us in the second half of the season.  Eriksen got his first goal for United. Bruno was brilliant in the first half, but faded after he was shifted to the right wing after Elanga was replaced by McTominay. I understand McTominay was brought on for the struggling Malacia playing in an unfamil...

Amazing attacking intent from the team as we come from behind to win the game. Garnacho was simply brilliant, Bruno was the key, Martial is back with a bang and Rashford continues his form. Ten Hag got plenty to learn from this game. Bruno can only play well when he's played in the attacking midfielder position, which I mentioned in my last blog. Donny Van de Beek ghosted his game once again. It's time he gets dropped, it's not working out and be sold in January. Garnacho came off the bench and got himself 2 assists, his cross for the 4th goal was brilliant. Fred was ineffective as the only creator left, with VDB having another bad game and Bruno in the right wing in the first half. I think he can only play well when he's asked to play a highly aggressive game.  Defensively, it was a disaster, with Lindelof and Maguire back as a defensive partnership for this league cup game. Maguire was sleeping for the Watkins goal and second goal, we were unlucky with the Dalot defle...

This was a bad win, if that exists. 15 points, yet we finished second in the group and have to play another extra knockout round against one of the UCL teams that dropped to Europa. Garnacho what a goal, he started where he left off and scored the winning goal. He becomes the youngest non-English goalscorer in Europe for man united, a record previously held by George Best. Ronaldo should've taken his chance and score his goal, a player like him shouldn't miss those chances.  Defensively, we were solid again (never have I thought I'll get to say this) once again as we De Gea gets his 6th clean-sheet in 7 games. Martinez was class once again, his calmness and leadership in defence is impeccable. Not just defence, but his progressive passes are really done well. De Gea's double save right before the break was really important, and he deserves it for his recent performances.  We still missed Antony, talk all about his productivity and showboating, but he always draws 2-3 pl...
