This will be interesting. New Law, we will get an uncontested dropped ball since we had possession. And Taylor gave it to the wrong team.

Has anyone noticed that Harry Maguire looks like the old man from the movie Up?

I'd post a pic but it never works

Hey now. Don't be making fun of Slabhead.

First 30 minutes. I really like the high press. It would be more effective with a midfield presence. I like AWB a lot. Huge upgrade at RB, but then anytime would have been over Young. Slabhead needs some time with Lindelof.

Pogba needs to get rid of that spin move

Agreed, he loses the ball trying the fancy stuff when a simple pass off to a teammate would spring the attack

0 movement and creativity around the 18. We all just stand and go 1 v 1.

Dear Christian, welcome to the EPL.

Very pretty break and finish. That all started with the physical stand up play by Maguire.

Good build up and nice finish

Oh my. Lets see if he was onside.

He was. What a pass by Pogba and what horrible defending by Chelsea.

Pogba with a beautiful ball, Rashford perfect timing on the run. 3-0 in the blink of an eye

Is Linguard even wearing shinguards? His ankles are showing his socks are so low.

All Pogba. 4-0 is good right?

Our counterattack has been fantastic today

Cool for James to get a goal on his debut

All three signings played and contributed. When's the last time that happened?

Nice start

You could argue that the two that started were United's best players.

It's good to see our back line not looking like Swiss cheese.

For a second, I thought we sold Jones and Smalling to Chelsea at the deadline. Their center backs were horrible.

Fun game to watch! This was consistent with some of the stuff we saw when Ole first got here....seems like part of the issue towards the end of the campaign might have been the team's fitness playing his style...hopefully they had enough time and a proper regiment to limit that risk this season...

There may be an article that better articulates Paul Pogba but I haven't seen it.

Pogba's brother today came out and basically said he would love to see his poor brother compete at RM and how he hopes it will happen with Sept 2 looming.

Paul, you are a wuss. If you want to leave come out and say it. Be a man and turn in that transfer request. Of course you should have done that already but you still can. Your brother doesnt need to be your mouthpiece. So get off the pot. Either come out and say you want to go or come out and say your brother is full of it and you are staying. Either way I'm fine with it. But dont hide behind your brother's skirts.

Rant over.

What both his brother and he need to realize is...Real Madrid doesn't actually want him. Or at least they haven't shown that they do.

Rumors that Inter want Sanchez on loan for at least one, if not two seasons. Sanchez willing to take a pay cut but my guess is that United might still need to cover a portion of his wages.

I think Zidane wants him. I don't think Perez does, at least while they have Bale. And unless they cover a substantial portion of his wages they are stuck with Bale. And that has Zidane between a rock and hard place. The same would be said about James Rodriguez.
Dre_00

I agree that Zidane wants him. I don't think Perez does though. Hard to say since so much of what comes out of clubs is smoke and mirrors but he talks a lot about buying young phenoms to avoid FFP. There was a rumor that Zidane promised Pogba that he'd have him in Madrid by end of the transfer window but Perez nixed it and Zidane is ticked. Who knows though...

Got a feeling tonight's game will be a better indicator of where we are vs. last year than Chelsea was. Wolves pretty much owned us last year. Be interested to see if Ole can manage this better and if the team looks better.
