The Torres and Suarez reference is that they can't afford to be rebuilding every 2/3 years by losing their best player especially the way the market is now. I think they realise that and since he's on a long term contract will make him stay.

Perhaps. But a disillusioned player is not going to be great.

Is one dubious penalty really grounds for Villainy these days. Think we need Ander and Martial or even Fellaini.

Was an interesting game. Swansea set up to defend and play on counter; the goal on half time was good for us. Having said that, first 20 of second half wasn't great for us.

But Swansea had to play out of their skins for most of the time; a few minutes of weakness and United killed them.

I believe it was 3 minutes and 47 seconds or something for the three goals at the end

The one breakthrough goal we got last year too, but then it always looked like we could concede and we ended up conceding. I think matic is helping that a lot, we don't look as vulnerable.

Also, don't know if mou looking more attacking these days from kickoff but lukaku, mkhi, Rashford and mata is a lot of attacking intent. Personally I don't like mata and mkhi together but they interplay well when we have a lot of possession, it just means pogba is quieter. Prefer when Fellaini or herrera can anchor with matic but hey, I'll give mou the benefit of the doing, he's doing okay for now

I think the real difference is that we could not break down teams like this last season.

I must say I thought Mkhi was totally invisible until he started to thread through those passes.
