NewYorkSaint Posted 23 January, 2016 Share Posted 23 January, 2016 Make no mistake. That was a brilliantly earned, completely deserved result. We out-thought them and out-fought them. The midfield battle was decisive. We wanted it more. And we were set up better. Koeman must be SO happy about winning the tactics battle of the Dutchmen. Our midfield armory of Big Vic, CLASIE, Romeu was simply superb. VvD and Fonte had fantastic games. And as for Charlie. What can you say? Even before that goal he was exciting. Every touch. Strength, determination and huge skill. Really, really exciting to have him in the mix. Friends, we're heading back to Europe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shroppie Posted 23 January, 2016 Share Posted 23 January, 2016 After a week in which I've had arrogant and deluded Manure fans telling me: Saints sold their allocation because their fans want to see United play. Southampton aren't really a Premier team. Southampton are poor and we'll win pretty easily. United can still win the league. Van Gaal is doing a good job. Rooney is still the best. ... It's almost impossible to say how great I feel after this result. :-D :-D Sent from my D6503 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wes Tender Posted 23 January, 2016 Share Posted 23 January, 2016 First back to back wins at Old Trafford for us since 1969, was it? Something like that. We probably edged it overall and might have had a Long penalty, but Austin coming on as a late substitute and scoring on his debut is Roy of the Rovers stuff. Good thing that we faced them with Van Gaal in charge, although we may have hastened his departure. This really is the worst United team that I can remember. There is no guarantee that they can even finish in the top four, but now with the turnaround that we have produced the past three games, three clean sheets, nine points, I can dream of a top six finish if Austin can keep finding the net.

After MLT sent Atkinson on his way in 1986, I suspect the mancs will be thanking us again (& Austin)for our part in the getting rid of another buffoon in years to come.

Batman Posted 23 January, 2016 Share Posted 23 January, 2016 Brilliant all round mane was very frustrating and tadic was not in the game much but had some very good touches the defence were excellent Vic was my MoM but a fag paper between him and Clasie Long was good and what a debut. THAT is why we bought Austin. great header, bottom corner, cracking finish other than a 5-10 min period in the start of the 2nd half, they were dire. Pretty stunning how a club like united with the money they spend play like that. Disgusting. prefer this win more so than last season. We never had to play that well/out of our skins and they cant say they missed very good chances (like Mata last season) cracking stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derry Posted 23 January, 2016 Share Posted 23 January, 2016 (edited) It's easy to see why signing Austin was a no brainer. He was absolutely brilliant being the only player who didn't go for the ball but checked out and was in exactly the right place with loads of time to finish. I'm betting the MU defenders were scratching their heads. It's what natural goal scorers do. What a snip for £4m. The team were very confident and solid. Everybody played well. We created the three best chances and generally clamped down on Utd. The changes stabilised in the tiring stage and gave us the legs to finish it off. Mane didn't look too pleased to be taken off in his audition game but Austin showed why. Tadic for him put in a very good shift and looked knackered by the time of his substitution.

striker Posted 23 January, 2016 Share Posted 23 January, 2016 Plus lets not forget that it was Austin who created the free kick in the corner. So he may have been left open, but he finished and he created the opportunity. Plus he doesn't miss as pointed out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angelman Posted 23 January, 2016 Share Posted 23 January, 2016 Reading the press, they are very begrudging in how well we played. R5 were also begrudging but did say that we closed shop and made it so hard for them, that they were found wanting for a way through. Forster and the back 3 have been brilliant in the past 3 games and haven't allowed other teams to play the way they want. Long may this last, but.....

John B Posted 23 January, 2016 Share Posted 23 January, 2016 Yes. Saw it desribed as a 'free header', and so it might have been, but Pelle would most likely have hit the post, Long headed over. And just for £4m as well. How much have Brendan and Van Gaal spent on forwards in the last two seasons ? Yes it was a 'free header' but he was relaxed and composed when he headed it must admit I would have been upset if we had conceded it as no one was marking him but very good cross from the under estimated JWP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glassesbloke Posted 23 January, 2016 Share Posted 23 January, 2016 Superb. The transformation at the back since FF returned, the hard graft in the middle (Vic and Clasie excellent), decent set pieces, tireless running from Long, and now finally someone who can actually capitalise on the chances we create: you couldn't make up Austin's debut, could you? The goal was worth £4m in itself in boosting confidence. Keep clear of too many injuries and we surely can do better than last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamesfp1 Posted 23 January, 2016 Share Posted 23 January, 2016 Exactly the sort of game we'd normally lose. With a finisher like Charlie Austin in the squad, now the type of game we will always have a chance of winning. Top 8 a realistic aim once again.
