He has to start for me but with two from Buendia, Coutinho and/or Bailey flanking him and Ings on the bench.

I too would go with Watkins....but he has to improve his timing.

He tends to start runs at times, fractionally before he receives the ball and subsequently loses it, looks tentative at times....needs to read the game better.

Danny looks lost to me...not effective.

Looked like our players had butter on their boots in the first half. Couldn't control the ball whatsoever.

Incredible grit to come back in the 2nd half. Looked very promising after Lil' Phil came on.

Probably Austin MacPhee’s idea #MacPheeOut

Just watched MOTD and it’s like it had MUTV’s guest editor in charge, you wouldn’t know we had more possession or shots on target (and the same shots at goal), it was like it was a Man Utd onslaught and we were hanging on despite 75% second half possession. Even the analysis was poor and rushed. Not great BBC.

MOTD has been pants for ages now. Its time Linekar and his comedy moved on

Tbf I don't believe that intensity is sustainable over 90 minutes. 

Important as it is I don't believe you can just rely on work rate at this level.

Certainly not against top teams. 
 

You could argue that our comeback yesterday was partly down to United putting too much in to the early phase

Sanson played well but I think he struggled with his role early on. He was trying to support Cash but they were easily doing 1 2’s around him leaving Cash exposed.  I think this is where a natural Defensive midfielder to keep mopping up in these situations is very important. It’s why Nakamba thrived.

My theory is that when the footage was being edited, they have enough material early on to fill the MOTD quota, then just added in the villa bits because they need to show the goals. It's ManU.

All media are hypocritical dimwits, remember when the risks was losing the scum6 to the super league, turned on them sharpish and now it's never mentioned.

Its the usual MOTD. They even wasted 2 mins at the end on the 'stamp' from Luiz it was just so unnecessary and irrelevant.
