Only watched the highlights, martial, nice assist. The "Hof's" tackle for the Madrid pen. Easily the worst penalty shoot out I have witnessed, however take nothing away from some of those De Gea stops.

Martial was class for the goal and wish he would do that more often in a game - just run at players

Lindelof just needs to relax and play his game, seems like he is still a pace behind but I'm sure he will catch up soon

Lindelof has had 3 laps in concentration already... if anything is to go by I htink this season we may end up with Bailley and Smalling at CB

I hear ya...

Things to consider

- Evra, Vidic, even Pallister started shakedly and with some howlers but came good. He still has some games to go before we start the season

- I would pair him with Bailley as a way to get him settled rather than with the uncertainty in Smalling and Jones. That may be a better support when you just come in rather than playing Jones or Smalling

You could add Mkhitaryan to that he looked awful on his debut.

All fair points! Lets hope he can pair up with Bailley in one of the pre-season games and see if it helps

I believe that confidence/assurance/belief in your partner can influence your own confidence/assurance/belief in yourself. Which in turns influences your decision making and so forth

and similarly the lack of confidence/assurance/ belief in your team mates can influence yours ...
