  1. The bit at about 22:30, where he takes the ball out of the air over his shoulder, and then the two touches afterward. Nothing came of it, so it won't be noted, but it was astonishing skill. The best player in the Prem, IMO.
  2. What was the defender doing? Ball goes by him, he stops running as if he expected someone to pick Lukaku up. Woeful.
  3. The one difference is that it hasn't been constant pressure. And Newcastle have had quite a few chances. If anything, the key was that Newcastle's keeper is more than a bit shit.
  4. Not really. They've been their usual aimless selves, passing it around harmlessly on the perimeter, trying to figure out how to create chances. Deflected shot that the keeper couldn't hold gave him a tap-in for the first, and then a decent take and shot that the keeper let go right through the wickets for the second. A world-class goal scorer taking his chances.
  5. Lumpy Shaw playing central mid for some reason, Newcastle calmly pass it through what's left of United's defense to equalize. Lovely goal.
  6. All just part of the Premier League script that has Ronaldo returning to take United back to the top of the table.
  7. Another match to remind you what a stadium full of people add to the game. Even watching on TV. And it's over.
  8. They should move Zaha into the centre. Now would be the perfect time to sow a little confusion in a make-shift central pairing.
  9. Spurs look like they did under Mourinho. Defend defend defend and wait for a chance to hit on the counter. Hopefully Palace can hold on for the draw.
  10. Why didn't they sell him this summer, and use the proceeds to buy another forward?
  11. Traore is steam-rolling them. But they need to take advantage, and not give away free kicks in dangerous positions.
