Just the 2 things for me.
1. We deserved to lose that game.
2. Andre Onana - let's put some respect on that man's name. ?.

Onana has been good all season. Fair play to him.

The 1st save of that double save was phenomenal I'm 1st one to give him a hard time when he screws up. But he has played much better this year in every respect.

Always said he is good goalie so not surprised. Like sveryone he will make a mistake too.

Ork we did deserve to lose that game. Ugartes block was even better than the double save by onana. Best piece of defending I've seen from a united player all season.
He needs to play games and should be one of 1st names in team sheet imo.
He is off the pace a little as he has Bennett played epl but only games can solve that.

Couldn't agree more Ken - that was a world-class action from a player who does need a run of games to get going properly, especially when our other available senior midfield options right now are all 30+.
As for concessions relating to players - I think Rashford is starting to look decent on the right - those 2 crosses for Garna were class. I've given him some over the years and I stand by all of it, but if his contributions are of that level on the right then he should be given a run there.
The one player I really do feel sorry for ATM is Amad - ten Hag has just properly taken the p*** out of him. To look on from the bench for 3 straight games when he's been little worse than anyone else this season, to then see Antony come on ahead of him - I bet he's raging.
I get that some doubt he'll ever reach the level we're aiming for, but he is the level we're at now and damn well grafts harder than most of his teammates - some could with a reality check.
Ten Hag might well have made Amad's mind up for him - I fully expect Amad to now demand a move and, imo, he'd be 100% vindicated in that decision.

I’ve given Onana a lot of criticism since joining but he has been better this season, still a bit to go for me but it definitely seems like his shot stopping is getting better. Hopefully a sign that the new GK coach is doing well.

Ive been critical of him but Onana has looked good recently ad so has Ugarte.
