We've clearly been trying to break Walker-Peters with him being the youngster. It's not working. He's too good.

Maybe he could teach Kane how to tackle.

 

Eriksen is such a joy to watch

 

Is that a new crest? Is it the same chicken fella but just inside a shield now?

 

Pretty boring first half

 

Not sure how fit Son is right now but he needs to come in for Sissoko.

 

Shelvey is a dummy

 

Ritchie could've been off for that as well

 

He learned that from Gerrard. I'd make damn sure he wasn't at the club by September 1st if he does that on day 1.

 

Eriksen to Dele goals never get old

 

Shelvey has rocks between his ears. Absolute tool.

 

Rose's backup scoring is perfect

 

Kane will never score in August

 

Guess who has Ben Davies in fantasy.

 

Sissoko has to go now. Had his chance and was awful. Let that Turkish team have him.

Overall solid opening game. A little rusty but a couple nice goals. Eriksen looks great.

 

Could be a very costly game for us. If those two injuries are bad, we're left with very few defenders. On top of that, we're not playing any top half teams until October, so we really need to may hay while the sun shines.

Next weekend at Huddersfield will be more telling for us. It looks to me like we badly need a bit more fire power up top. We looked blunt today.

 

Great debut for KWP. His confidence should be very high right now.

 

That United line-up is nice.

 

Not sure I massively like having just 2 in central midfield. See how it goes I suppose.

 

Tell you what Matić is a fine passer of the ball.

 

Matic is going to turn out to be our most important transfer since Van Persie. Can already see hints of it, but just adds such good balance to the squad.

 

Atkinson is bad at his job

 

Holy shit Atkinson is bad.

 

How did United not score there

 

It's what we do.

 

"Lukaku played for the penalty" it's OK Gary you can stop.
