I realise it was only 1 game and i don’t want to overreact but sometimes games like that can have a huge impact on individual players. McTominay has so far looked like a solid squad player but on Wednesday he stepped up a level. He competed at the highest level and looked the part. He’s still young and inexperienced but games and performances like that must have a huge impact on his confidence and self belief. I’m not suggesting he immediately becomes a first choice but it was great to see his continuing development.

Fred, who let's be honest has been having a nightmare also looked a different player. Not a 10 out of 10 player but a really solid game in challenging circumstances. Hopefully it kick starts his United career.

The players must believe they can beat anybody right now, I don’t think anyone will want us in the draw, there is something mystical going on at the moment.

Fred was awesome. Brought lots of energy and continually pressed and harassed the PSG midfielders.

Its weird ajh. Sometimes players get a chance due to others misfortune.
Mctom has done well very well indeed. I put dalot in that same bracket.
Periera and fred have also stepped up but to a much lesser degree imo.

Looking forward to getting matic and herrera back all the same.

It will be interesting to see if ole sticks with 2 up front. Or reverts to the 433.
I prefer the 2 up.

Agree Ken- think ole might press high and hard taking it to them. Might have a cheeky few quid on 2-4 to us after the kids prediction on ashley youngs insta. BTW, cracking response from him.

Best we have seen from Fred so far he needs to build on that performance . He was almost running the midfield on Wednesday 😃😃.

I’ve just watched a montage video of Wednesday night and it showed clips of 99. Talk about goosebumps.

Love Ole’s attitude. Mountains are there to be climbed. And we did exactly that.

If we beat Arsenal tomorrow and get into the top 4, despite the probability we won’t end this season with a trophy, it will still go down as one of our most memorable seasons.

In December we were 11 points behind 4th and everyone in Europe thought PSG had the easiest tie of the round, and at the time they were right.

Now we sit 4th with every chance of finishing there and we’re in the CL quarter finals with the prospect of a massive tie against Bayern, Barca, City or Liverpool.

Thank you Ole for bringing back the blockbuster fixtures, we’re going into them knowing we can win. It’s a great feeling which we’ve missed for 5 years.

Roll on Sunday!
