    This must be the most anticipated game in the PL for many years and, of course, it won't be shown on UK tv. Radio Five Live will carry commentary, but if you can find it the NBC Sports channel will be showing the game live.

    it seems we're more determined for CR to score rather than play our usual game. Hopefully we'll get it out of our system at half time and revert to normal

    A very quiet Sancho is off and Lingard on.

    Martial and RVDB on for Bruno and Greenwood - strength in depth.

    I watched it on BEIN. NBC Sport was carrying another game here. I love listening to Arabic commentaries. Sooo dramatic! lol

    Fantastic game! For those pundits that don’t think that United are title contenders, they will get their heads checked after this match. The squad is stacked!

    Sunderland fan in piece here.

    Ronaldo being in your team will get you there or there about for definite. Opposition players will just be in awe of Ronaldo.

    As one of most avid Pogba critics on this board, mostly for not committing his future to the club, I’ve been enjoying watching him these past four games. He’s been involved in everything good thing when driving the team forward. He makes it look simple and I just wish he would just put the pen on paper and commit. There is no point going to Spain at this point and why play in the French league for PSG? Juve can’t pay him either.

    Another point that I want to make is about Mason Greenwood. I would have this young man starting every single game when fit. He is far better than anyone that has come through the ranks in recent years, including Rashford.

    Next is Sancho… people thought he had a quiet game on Saturday but I think that is largely due to his style of play. He simplifies his decision making when the team is on the attack. I saw many good things from his on Saturday. I think that once he gets grounded in the physical nature of the premier league, understands the link up play with Shaw, he’d become a phenom.

    Matic is the last point that I want touch on. I’ve been hard on him even being in the team. But somehow after Saturday, I think we are better off starting Matic in place of Fred. He reads the game very well to do a decent job. He is also less prone to calamitous tackles that plagues Fred. I’d like to see him start the next game again. Overall, I’d like the team to remain unchanged for the next game and see how we can build on the performance on Saturday in a difficult away game at West Ham.

    I heard rumours (not from the tea lady in the canteen at OT) that the game on Saturday had a massive influence on Pogba, playing with Ronaldo and the general feel of the team, and he's going to sign a new contract.

    Matic is ok with the ball, he's pretty poor without it though. That is a problem for a defensive midfielder.

    Being mentioned on Sky now.
    Pogba has looked a lot happier in every game this season so far, the biggest problem i see right now is Raiol sticking his nose in and trying to get wage parity with Ronny, this could kill any extension talk.
