Deani, I agree, we look very good. The only caveat would be it was West Ham and Swansea, tougher tests await. However last year we dropped too many points against 'lesser' teams. If we can continue in this vein, looks like we won't make that mistake this year.

Great to see us go for goals. At 2-0 we could have taken our foot off the gas but we were ruthless.

I thought Bailly and Jones looked very good again so really positive signs for us.

Jones and Bailly were good, however as a team the defending from set pieces and crosses was piss poor. Just luck the reason Swansea didn't tap a couple in from close range.

But a great result and wins equal confidence. So keep winning and we'll keep improving mentally too.

Great win again just like last week. We look a different team thia year with Matic and Lukaku in.

Last year the biggest problem was not scoring enough goals and this year in 2 games we have scored 8 goals.

Syd, Teams will always get chances. We will never dominate for the full 90 mins.

However what is really exciting me is our own ability to have won the last 2 games in the manner in which we did.

Last year that game would have ended 1-1. But this year we have more spark and guile. Overall, a more killer instinct.

Throughout fergies years, We always gave up chances but we had the incredible ability to always have more chances ourselves and score more goals.

So forgive me for not really caring that we weren't the best at defending crosses today. We won 4-0, again.

Thing is mate, if one of those scrambles made it 1.1, our heads could have went down and anything could have happened. I'm not complaining as 4.0 away against anyone is good, but I think we were a tad lucky today when at 1.0. But so glad we got 2nd goal. I think I got many grey hairs last season because we suffered late equalisers.

As they say, good teams make their own luck.

I think there is a much different aura around this team syd. I think if one of those go in, this team will not hang it's head. Much different to the last couple of years.

When other teams levelled against us in the fergies years, We rarely panicked because we knew we were always good to score more. I have the same feeling with this team.

Personally Tony I think games like this can be much trickier than games against the big sides when you spend ages just trying to see a crack of the goal due to there constantly being 10 blokes stood in front of it.

The most impressive thing for me today was our bench the quality of player we can bring on is frightening and the fact that we complete destroyed a side in 4 minutes.

We look strong we look confident we look fit and we look hungry add the huge quality we have within the ranks and we are in terrific shape long may it continue.

Our League position last year was caused by our inability to put away 'lesser' teams we were dominating, this has been a great start in addressing that. I've also just posted that it's nice to see. Jose team prepared to attack until the end and not sit on a lead which he has sometimes done, perhaps a corner has been turned.

Interestingly we are yet to play a team who haven't parked the bus. I do wonder how we'll do against a better side. A side willing to attack in numbers. Given the fact we bomb forward in numbers now, we could do very well against the better sides.

Good point. 8 goals in 2 games against 2 teams set up defensively. If we play a team more willing to attack, we should be able to create more.

I can see Rushford playing exceptionally well against teams in a more open game.

I think all of the front line will love playing a more open game. We have incredible pace there. Martial too seems to be answering the critics.

If I'm brutally honest I would love to see him start instead of mata. Rash, miki and martial behind lukaku in an open game. Goals.
