Rashford was superb, but that first team had the chemistry the second team didn't. Lingard, Herrera,Mata and Carrick were behind him, they have played together, the other team has Pereira and tuanzebe in midfield and Lukaku is new. So everyone tried.

Bros did you watch the match at all?

Tuanzebe played as part of the back 3 (LCB) and not in midfield.

SOO many fools that try to act intelligent on this thread, how can you be criticizing Martial for not crossing, did you watch the match, Nigga was practically a shadow striker not to mention that we were playing a 3 at the back formation, so the crossing was the main job of the wingbacks, besides he contributed to a goal so someone help me ask that fool what hes groaning about.

Ukaku is looking like a big mistake, it seems Chelsea are about to return the L they took from him.

Definitely Sanchez is the better player but not sure we have a chance to get him.

He has one year left in his contract 40-45m can get him, we can also pay him that 275k/week he is demanding or even round it up to 300k since Zlatan and Rooney are off our books. If arsenal do strong head too much, we can throw in Smalling into the deal. If perisic is 40-45m why not push for Sanchez for almost the same price. Sanchez is just 3 months older than perisic. We need to be doing impossible deals to beat the rest. Look at that Van persie transfer

Our strike force should consist of a front 2 of lukaku and rashford for this upcoming season! Time to get back to Andy and yorkes theory of strike partnerships

All in all, entertaining game, it was well worth me dodging my girls facetime but i wont draw too much conclusions yet, Im a DC United and Seattle Sounders fan, i watch several Lakers game, La Galaxy isnt worth formulating opinions over.

afrodoc2:


It is understandable that people want the new expensive guy Lukaku to do well but our focus should be on the well being of the ENTIRE team rather than 1 player.
Since it is acknowledged that Lukaku knows how to score goals i am not really worried about him for now cos i believe the goals will start to flow at some point.
I would have been more worried if Mikki, Fellaini, Martial and Rashford kept on last season's pattern of missing clear cut chances.

Lastly this is only pre-season guys AND the first game at that. So let us all chill.

Exactly bro , people are just taking it too personal, this is a preseason game and most of today's game is experimental so guys should chill. Like you pointed out we net another player who can give us 15-20 goals to go with the 20+ Lukaku is gonna bring, I am very sure Mata had 10+ so I am not worried about him ,my worry is Rashford,martial, Lingard, and Mkhitaryan they should be hitting double figures. I don't like Rashfords tally last season same for Martial. Pogba should also give us double figures if we relieve him of defensive duties. Our defenders should also come up with at least 5-10goals between them, Vidic can Even give you that alone. Our problem is not our target man its supporting cast that should step up.

Thanks i appreciate.

Man Lukakus Touch is outrageous, i havent seen touch that bad since forever.

If we persist with a 3-5-2 formation that doesn't fit his qualities.

even if we play 2-7-1 formation he won't flop. Why bother replying that guy, don't you know he is a troll?

Jeezz after 45 minutes?. People take things too serious on this thread. United won 5-2 thats all that matters for me. The team will improve from here.

I didn't say he is in midfield, moreover defenders can also supply for the attackers like how Fosu-mensah did for Martials goal.

Sanchez is very much possible especially with him declaring he wants UCL football. Sanchez is a 100% upgrade on Perisic, almost same age and similar price, so I don't know why Mourinho won't make a move for him. Its saddening.

I didn't say it shouldn't be front 2, what I am saying is that who and who to play that front 2 should not be decided based on this single game

What is this guy saying? Which first touch?

Okay..Okay guys we have to chill. Haba already demanding for Sanchez? It's our first preseason meatch. They all got together only 1 week ago and yes i think i started this martial argument forgetting completely we changed formation in the second half. Let us look forward to the next game. 3-5-2 may not be so bad afterall considering Chelsea, Tottenham and Arsenal have used it last season to considerable success. It may not be our mainstay formation but it is refreshing to see mourinho moving to the two striker at the front style. We were crying for that through some matches last season. This season with new players, more time together in preseason, we should come good and implement it at some points where teams sit too deep. And for the person who wanted to take a slight dig at Lindelof, he will come good. It wasn't easy when Vidic and Evra came too. Lindelof will break legs with heads.

My retort was not based on any pre season game but rather on the premise that they are currently our 2 best finishers in the team! We can't gamble with our first 10 fixtures so those 2 need to play together!

It's not impossible, when Fergie was chasing RVP it looked strange to me, but at the end he came to us and was the difference, Cantona came to us from the same circumstances to spark that league dominance. Jose should be wrapping up deals like this if we want to challenge at the highest level. Perisic is not match to Sanchez, they go for the same price too and are age mates. 45-50m would do. Throw Smalling into the deal to appease Wenger, he will be needed for them he has Europe league experience, he has won it so will suit them. Sanchez for me

Nobody is demanding Sanchez based on the outcome of the preseason. Sanchez will improve any team drastically, since mourinho said he needs 2 more signing, Sanchez should be one of them. If Sanchez and Lukaku give us 25 goals each then we are just 4 goals off last season total. Mata gets his 10 goals plus from others then we are heading in the right direction. We need at least 80-85 goals to win the league. We got 54 last season less than relegation-threatened Bournemouth, it's a poor return. With this team I don't see us cracking 70 league goals even if Lukaku score 30.

Lunatics everywhere see them masturbating on Sanchez's matter
Go and get him na....bloody scummies
Instead of them to worry abt (L) ukaku

Sanchez will improve any 'GOOD' team because despite all he has done at Assnal,they are still a bunch of never-do-wells. I want him at united. Premier league proven and world class IMO but Mourinho said he will only get players that want to come and will also suit his style and he will not come cheap either. If you think the club likes to throw money around then we should have secured Morata and Perisic by now. We are careful with spending and from previous windows we don't spend crazy sums on two players in one window.
