No, it won't. This hat-trick doesn't even make up for his inconsistencies in the past, but we appreciate it.
Lol

Okay cheesy

Rashford's finishing is still suspect. With the chances we had, first half should have ended at least 4-0.

Martial turned up today. Hat trick was well deserved and his link up play with Rashford with sumptuous. I just hope he starts making strides from now on and doesn't revert to default mode next game

It wasn’t part of Sheffield’s tactics to let Rashford score, only Martial cheesy grin

Paul Pogba's game by numbers vs. Sheffield United:
100% aerial duels won (3/3) 75% duels won (9/12) 15 final ⅓ entries 7 penalty area entries 5 recoveries 5 take-ons completed (most) 4 chances created (most)
And one outrageous nutmeg.

Thoughts on 3-0 win:
- Martial superb, first player to score 3 for us in the PL in 7 years - Pogba & Bruno linkup is beautiful - Matic flawless - Pogba playing deep works very well - Greenwood has to start Saturday - Rashford with 2 big assists - 13 games unbeaten - Clean sheet

If Chelsea lose tomorrow and Wolves continue like this, that their last match will be deadly. Likewise us vs Leicester

I'm just happy we've played Wolves already... very annoying and stubborn team to play.

Anthony Martial's first Premier League season wearing the No.9 shirt: ❍ 32 games ❍ 11 goals ❍ 4 assists
Anthony Martial's second Premier League season wearing the No.9 shirt: ❍ 25 games ❍ 14 goals ❍ 3 assists

No. In a team, you can't have 22 good players. Just try to have 15-16 good players, and you are good to go. Lingard was balling when Mou was around now. Shaw is a good player.

Meanwhile, your tactic sometimes determines if some players are useful or useless. E.g. James, that guy is only good for counterattacking style.



Oya list the 15 good players in Man Utd.

Was nice to not have to rely on Bruno or Pogba for the goals. Sometimes, the forwards also need to step up

Great game by Matic and Boss Pogba.

Matic especially. Coordinated play and connected defense and midfield perfectly.

Fantastic performance from him. It’s just his old legs. He can only play like this once in a while.

Martial: "Is this the best I've performed in a season? Yeah, because I scored three. The team played very well today. We created a lot of chances. We have to score more, and if I score more the team will be better."

How does this connect with the argument about Tottenham vs United?

Today's game is a different thing, same with Spurs Westham when Mourinho dominated possession in a different tactics.

In the time of Nigeria quest for world cup qualification and Tunidia 1994, Ivory Coast had the best midfield build up play in Africa. What Westerhof did was to wait for them at the back, then we we had the ball, we send a long pass to the strikers cutting off the midfield we were inferior.

Another tactics was Ferguson chocking the midfield against Arsenal and thereby preventing their build up play. So we hit them mostly on the counter.

These are tactics that not everyone can understand

vs Cotedvoire, Nigeria was having more shots on goal same thing Ferguson vs Arsenal
The tactics no one can understand is to deliberately allow your opponent to have numerous shots on your goal and plan with their attackers to be missing it like vs Tottenham

Everyone knows that good tactics can win a match.

What is being pointed out here is that Spurs draw with United was not down to Mourinho’s gameplan, rather bluffs from Rashford and Martial.

Today’s game proves that. Rashford missed two glorious chances, assuming Martial didn’t score a hat trick and United drew, will one say it’s because of Sheffield’s tactician?

Or the coach had time to study Man United style of play, that’s why Rashford was missing clear chances?

Any coach that has to rely on bluffs from opposing attackers to squeeze out a good result is simply having faith, not tactics.
