We haven't played that well which is encouraging because I think we can take it up another notch and I'm not sure Man Utd can or will.

He was so much more dangerous last week - probably a reflection of the quality of defenders he faced.
Last year's fully fit team. Which would have seen us go past Roma, and probably qualify for Europe again. We.had no depth, now we do.

Has been well dealt with by Dalot.he does work very hard though and has covered back really well.

Not to shit on him as I feel he will be world class, but just calling it as I see it, Minteh’s had a nightmare half there. Absolutely pocketed by Dalot. But you just know with him one moment of magic is seconds away.
JPVH has been immense so far

Not so sure about that - they seem to be ambling around quite a bit, with a surprising lack of urgency.
Early KO effect?

Decent first half. Man Utd were defending well up until our goal, and had the better chances (we didn't have any chances).
Gilmour been a highlight, getting stuck in and looking quality on the ball.
Van Hecke making some key interventions, looking good.
We're looking vulnerable on the right though, Veltman keep getting done and leaving too much space for them to get in behind.
Minteh not quite being able to make his mark, they're defending well against him, but I'd keep him on for the time being as he's so much of a threat.
2nd half is going to be tougher - they're going to make some big substitutes. Hopefully we'll do the same.

Playing against a 5 man midfield of reasonable quality, so need to rejig a bit to find our way through. Mitoma 2 touches and an assist.
It's horribly stressful watching. I don't remember it feeling like this 5 years ago.

Going in 1 up despite not playing that well is a very good sign
However feel we’ve neglected the left wing (apart from the assist) significantly and we haven’t had much joy against Dalot.
Hope we look to involve Mitoma significantly more in the second half as showing a lack of balance currently

JP, Dunk, Gilmour, pick of the bunch so far for me. We can seriously go up several notches from that first half performance.
