LIVE: Utd v Stoke

Comfortable game, which is a nice treat.

Passed it around the back four a little too often when there was clear gaps to get it forward at times, frustrating. Shaw was caught out of position a fair few times in the first half too, watching him you live you could see him drifting further and further infield until the ball was played to their winger in acres of space.

Defence generally did really well though, as bad as Stoke were.

Pogba was brilliant second half, Lukakus build up play was good today too. Attacks flowed through him as he played it on to the wings, made good runs which at times weren’t picked out.

Looking forward to watching the goals back, first two looked like crackers.

Defensively we were abysmal

We did let Joe Allen dictate it a fair bit, he managed to waltz to the edge of our box too easily. They had a couple of real easy chances to get shots on target but luckily they were shiyte.

Mourinho: "I have no idea (if Alexis deal is close). Today I was completely separate. I was just focused on the match."

Pogba was also brilliant first half. At least three truly world class passes.

Mourinho: "Is he (Mkhitaryan) going to be involved in a deal? It's possible. It's also possible he stays." #mulive

Mourinho on Sanchez: “I am not going to speak about hypothetical situation. Probably there are other clubs interested, also some other clubs are trying. He’s an Arsenal player.”
