Match Ratings Ratings vs Man Utd

[Mr Pink]

Richarlison for me. Bentancur close second.

But Skipp, and PEH were absolutely dominant, albiet a poor United midfield.

What has happened to the Man U midfield. Some very very poor decisions on who to buy, who to loan , and still to be giving McTominay so many minutes.

Richy was the MOTM for me but i'll mention Hojbjerg as well, i thought he played well today, got about a lot and controlled the midfield well with skipp and Bentancur and some of his passes were really good and kept Utd having to run around a lot more. I don't want Hojbjerg to go as i think he can do a good job for us but once all the other midfielders are back he'll end up being way down the list as a starter.

That’s a bit harsh. He wasn’t getting any support from Johnson. Also the first goal Romero would have blocked the shot if he hadn’t been so concerned about having his arms behind his back.

The 'arms behind the back' thing was apparent in both goals. One of the pundits (Redknapp?) said 'you can't run with your hands behind your back' and I agree. Romero and Porro were both guilty of that rather than potentially getting a block in.
