Nice touch from Lingard.
Whilst the upturn in results is clear to see, did he really show much in the spurs game? You seemed to play the same as all the rest. Just go out and enjoy yourself etc. Not sure De Gea having the limbs of an octopus is really a tactical master stroke tbh.
Was more impressed with last night than the spurs game tbh. That game seemed to be effected more by tactics than luck.
You are quite right but it also doesn't matter does it? Pretty much all of the top managers had either a number 2 or a collective or coaches to help. Cloughie had Peter Taylor, Liverpool had the boot room in their heyday, Fergie always had a strong coach alongside him. The manager makes the final decision, sets the tone but I would hope that they do have a team to help. His team seems pretty good so far, smart move.

No. It doesn't matter. But it's not a dig.
I'm trying to point out it's a team effort.
People quick to hail him as a tactical genius.
He might be, he might not be.
Be better to know the facts before making such claims.
Sorry, didn't mean it to come across as a dig. I agree with you, it come be him, it could be his group of coaches. I think a collective approach is more likely in the modern era, no shame in that. What he is doing well is creating the right environment for those around him, coaches and players. That is pretty evident.

FFS. What a joke. Full strength team beaten by Millwall. Embarrassing. 2 stupid fouls by Digne. 2nd shouldn't have counted but without VAR there's not much you can do. Pathetic.

If ever there was an example of where VAR can work this was it. Everybody saw it on the big screen. To be honest though Everton couldn't deal with second balls from set pieces throughout the game and so Millwall were always going to carry on lumping them into the box

Best in the league
I called him the best "attacking full back" in the league in exaggeration and in jest after he scored a last minute winner, but don't let that get in the way of a good laugh.
We weren't good enough. Defending of set pieces continues to let us down week after week and barely produced anything going forward. The fact we managed 3 shots on target all game against Millwall is a joke. Gylfi hardly got a touch, DCL did nothing, Lookman did nothing but give it away and couldn't get the ball to Richarlison who was constantly in space. Rubbish.

Everton were pish poor. I didn’t think it was deliberate handball, it hit him that quick he couldn’t move his arm out of the way.
Kilbane was saying his arm moved towards the ball but it looked to me like his arm moved after the ball had hit him.

Wimbledon 2-0 up on West Ham. Ground rocking like the old Plough Lane.

Both fans prearranged meet at Surrey Quays, video shows fighting between both sets of fans, this guy is in the front throwing punches and you can clearly see a one bloke reach over the fella he’s trading blows with and slash him.
