Mainoo has such unbelievably quick feet. What a player he has the potential to be.

Rashford, on the other hand. Get up, man.
 
Man Utd need to make a change in the middle , Casemiro won’t last

Good game - Luton should be level

Hojlund is a very good front runner , very instinctive to finish the way he did - he does seem to have the likes of Garnacho and Rashford cutting inside and taking his space up - he needs wide players going on the outside to feed him
 
Unfortunately, he's just too slow these days.
Ship him off to the Saudi league.
It's confirming why Real were happy to let him go. Quality on the ball but a liability too often. He will be another big loss on the balance sheet.

Fair play to Luton, they are giving it everything and unlike Burnley and Sheffield Utd, they don't look out of place in the PL. As an Everton fan, they worry me 😯

Tomorrow feels like a massive game tomorrow for Everton, at home against a Palace team lacking several of their best players including Olize and Eze and likely a caretaker manager. Sort of game you really have to be winning (and can drag Palace into the fight too)
 
What strikes me most about this game, and others I saw earlier in the season, is...how easy it is to run at the United defence through the centre....Luton just seem to be able to pick the ball up inside their own half, inject a bit of pace and within half a dozen strides have bypassed three or four United midfielders. If Luton had any guile in the last third of the pitch this could have been very messy for United....as it happens, Luton simply havent created any real clear scoring opportunities...lots of scrambled half efforts, deflections etc....but nothing where the forward can see the whites of Onana's eyes.
 
Well, that was an ugly three points.
United should have won that game 8-4, it should have been over by half time.
Credit to Luton, they never gave up ........................ I hope they're around next season.

A really hard fought win but an important one as it keeps the momentum going.

Hojlund? I’ve liked his from the first time I saw him, and he’s playing so well just now. The fact that he is adding goals is fantastic.

But player of the match for me was Mainoo. He has a calmness about which belies his age, quick feet and is a really good tackler. So good, the referee tonight was fooled by it 🤣

I agree about Mainoo, he plays as though he's been playing at this level for years.
And the referee, possibly the fussiest ref I've seen all season.
Hojlund coming on really well.
Rashford and Caemioro to Saudi Arabia anyone?

Rashford rumoured to be off to PSG to replace Mbappe.

Hugely massive. Palace are there for the taking and as you say, it drags them into it. It also takes us out of the bottom 3, psychologically important.

If we don't beat Palace, a point against them at home at this stage of the season isn't really enough, then we are clearly in for another dog fight. That may already be the case but it might help to move momentum.

I believe we should hear the results of our appeal this week. If we lose it then it looks bad for the next charge. If we get a reduced penalty then those points returned to us will be massive and it bodes better for the next set of charges.

Tomorrow may well not be fun to watch 😬
