Having heard Robbie Savage speak before the game, and during the game on commentary, I really wish Utd had employed him as the new manager instead of Amorim. Robbie seems to have vast knowledge on how Utd should be playing
Sounded like his pimping himself out for a job!!!
 
Hojlund's shot conversion seems to be ridiculously high. Even if he had an average amount of chances a season, I reckon he'd score well over 30.

Getting 1 shot every 2 games is just such a waste
 
Talking to a mate at the Golf Course today who is a Utd Season Ticket holder and he was telling me there is a joint protest on sunday against Ratcliffe and the decision to remove all concessions from all unsold tickets for the rest of the season, meaning all tickets, regardless of age, will be £66.00.

He was saying he agrees with a lot of what has been done, ie, removing the majority of freebees for ex-players, staff, wags etc, but charging kids £66.00 is just wrong.

Everton fans have agreed to join the protest as it is rumoured he is also going to bin the agreement with other PL teams over the capping of away fans ticket prices.
 
I thought Utd were pretty good tonight, at least after conceding the 2 poor goals.

Much more entertaining than we've generally been (not difficult). Could have put it out of sight in second half, but still need to work on actually sticking ball in the back of the net. Though, scoring 3 is no disaster.
 
Enough of the Yernighted nonsense. Even as a confirmed non-lover of the spuds, their game against Roma was great entertainment. Really enjoyable watch.

I said it here more than once last season, Hojlund survives off scraps. And you’re spot on. His conversion rate is right up there.

Of course, there are plenty out there, and some post here, who will take a pop at him because he pulls on a United shirt. But I think it’s 20 goals now in 57 United appearances. He doesn’t miss many glaringly easy chances.

I feel for the lad. He’s the only striker at the club, and that’s an enormous weight on the shoulders of someone his age. Those who criticise him do so based on what they see on MOTD or read in the papers. Not from watching him for 90 minutes.

Brilliant finish tonight.
It’s the service to him it’s just not good enough.!
