Still don’t see the point of Rashford or Lingard. We were never going to score or look threatening when Jose starts those two.
Lingard wouldn’t get in most premier league teams, but he looks busy and runs around a lot plus is a local lad so should be a starter. When it comes to ability he has to be as bad as Bebe. But at least Bebe could run past people before crossing it into row z.
Rashford is another Welbeck who had a good start to his career. But ever since then all he does is hog onto the ball and run into blind alleys thinking he’s made it and is a big time player. Can’t believe people were comparing him to Mbappe.

It shouldn't be the case but how many of our lads that started today would you pick over City's starting eleven? We look very disjointed moving the ball from the back to middle and middle to front. We haven't got a centre back who can play with the ball at his feet, Fred has been mostly poor since he signed, Pogba's performances are as varied as his hair colour and Lukaku, Sanchez and Rashford just haven't turned up this season.
Fred’s barely been given a chance. He has had good games too as well as poor games. But you need to let players settle.
If Jose was Spurs manager that debutant defender who conceded two penalties last week would never have been seen again. Yet Potch sticks faith in him and he scores the winning goal too this week. Klopp did the same with Lovren last season.
This season is a write off regardless. There’s no way we are getting 4th. Thank strawberry float Woodward didn’t let Mourinho sign Willian for some stupid fee as Matic looks on his last legs. But funny enough there’s some players despite having been playing the whole season terrible still get picked like Matic. Whilst others chop and change constantly.
