Helped turn the game for us yesterday, but was actually pretty average for the first 70 odd minutes, looking shot of confidence again.
Not sure how significant this was, but I noticed as soon as that third substitution was made he exploded into life. 9 times out of 10 Jose hooks him off there, and I'm sure he was as surprised as I was to see Rashford's number go up instead of his. But from that moment on he's picking the ball up and beating players again with absolutely no fear.
Maybe I'm reading too much into it but the contrast between his first 70 minutes and his last 20 was pretty noticeable, and was suggestive of someone really playing within themselves - almost as if he's scared of making a mistake for fear of being subbed.
Always struck me as a player who needs the carrot rather than the stick - i wonder what would happen if Jose put as much faith in him as he does the likes of Lukaku .

Insecure about what Nobb?
I don't keep changing my name.
I don't keep running away to hide from the forum when I get things wrong.
I don't filter posters just because they are mean to me.
This would be you Nobb, not me.

Where am I saying I’m perfect? I’m not
But a psychologist would have a field day with you. A man who every single waking day of his life comes onto a football website and only ever argues with people about everything other than football
You’re like a drill sergeant who doesn’t realise the war is over.

Drill Seargents make men of weaklings. You should have joined the Army, Nobb, you wouldn't be such a big girls blouse.

The very worst type of fan

Robb, what a special idiot this kid is. He was on the match thread asking for Martial to be subbed, bearing in mind every one was equally as poor as him. He will now go on to write articles claiming Sanzhez is the new Messi.

if this board has a special case of interest for a Psychiatrist then in Nobb, there's enough material there for an entire conference.

Correct VC.
Nevertheless, aptly appropriate, in this instance.
