as bad as we were against you at wembley you were worse at Old Trafford

Nearly every United support I know hates the way the team plays under Mourinho, good article in papers today about how he has turned talented players in average ones!

Poch works his magic on our players and most of the time we are great to watch, like last night for instance!

hes not turned talented players in average ones at all, but he is failing to get the best out of them thats for sure

I was surprised by how assured he looked. Yeah, he didn't do much because he wasn't on for long, but his movement and willingness to show for the ball was good to see, on his debut in such a high-stakes game (albeit the game was slowing in the final minutes).

Obviously time will tell, and it would be foolish to make a proper judgment based on 5 minutes at the end of a game. But he still managed to look better in those 5 minutes than N'Koudou and N'Jie managed in about 3 seasons between them

Yep I think in the little glimpse we had of him, there was enough to be hopeful about - he definitely has pace, wants the ball, and wants to take players on, and seems to have a good touch.

Looking forward to seeing more of him.

Lad is world class, that first touch and movement, I think he'll win major trophies soon and possibly more in years to come, no one else compares to him right now, he's that good, did I mention he's world class?

When was that written? If it was when he was overhyped as a youngster then that's different. Also, sounds like the over-excited ramblings of a fan that knows nothing of him but he probably had a bit of a semi cos Arsenal were considered to be close at some point. It's amazing how good players become when they look close to signing for your club. No one is that bothered about Richarlison signing for us but you can guarantee if he ever does come close, there'll be a queue of fans trying to convince themselves he's the next Ronaldo.

Looked good felm his few mins. Personally I’m not looking for much from him though until next season.

6 months to get acclimatised to us and English football then a good preseason on top of that.

Agree I thought his touch and movement was good in the little time he was on the pitch.

Already have more confidence in him than N'Jie or the other one 🤔 now plying his trade in Burnley (the poor barstuard)

The only thing I can tell from Tuesday is he looked quick.
