Wan Bissaka needs to be more aware of where the rest of the defense is...he's played on the striker a few times and left De Gea in poop. He was at fault for the goal against Fulham a few weeks back and again just now (lucky Everton failed to capitalise).

Your #2 is very good - look at Sheffield United this season without him.
Maybe it’s time to give Henderson a chance. De Gea has made to many mistakes and it’s costed united.

Tuanzebe when he comes has costed us as well.

Yeah he has been rather bad... look at the Sheffield United match... now he comes on to shut out Everton and what happens? We concede anyhow.

2 soft goals gifted and one lucky goal by us which should have snatched victory but again we snatch a drew from the jaws of victory :(

DDG needs to have a good look at himself because he is a liability, htf can you push the ball into the danger area when there's no one behind for a tap in?
He is so afraid of plucking the ball from under a players foot it is ridiculous, what about the aerial threat (against Sheffield United) ball comes in as a keeper you should be plucking those crosses out with confidence instead he tries to punch the ball after it has hit the head of the opposition

Seriously, Henderson is very good

We're aware...I'll write Ole and let him know even the Liverpool fans think he should swap keepers :D

On a more serious note, I think it's hard for people to swallow that the player who's been a star in several rough seasons could be the liability when the rest of the team starts coming together. We don't know what he's like in training and stuff but his mind was definitely not on the game yesterday. I guess we'll have to wait and see how Ole manages his highest paid player under-performing. He got Pogba and Shaw to come right in the last couple months so that's some points in his favour.

Side note is the Glazers also own the Tampa Bay Buccaneers so perhaps the success of that franchise could motivate them to making Man Utd great again and not seen as just a cash cow...

Donny in for Bruno, Telles in for Shaw, Matic and Fred in for Pogba and McTominay, Martial in for Cavani, Henderson in for De Gea.

Nice to see the team still looks solid - let's hope they play that way.

First 30 mins and at home. And looking as dominant as they did against everton. Nice to see.
There will be games where we don't win. But good to see us dominating. Amazing what confidence does after that Southampton game.

Lots of possession but their goalkeeper hasn't done much besides save a possible own goal.

Van de Beek just isn't good enough up there - not his fault maybe given how little time he's had and the pressure of replacing one of the best players in the league but the fact remains he's been anonymous for the first 40 minutes.

Although it is very difficult to play when people aren't passing to you.

Nah, it's what he does when he gets it...he immediately looks to get rid of it to the closest player. He doesn't have any confidence to pick a better pass or try a trick or take a shot. Maybe that comes when he's got more game time.

West Ham having 7-8 men in or around the box hasn't helped.
