Set my alarm to wake up at 4:30 am and I have to say I was not disappointed. Very good performance especially from Dorgu, Hojlund, Yoro and Heaven. Amad and Bruno okay and Maguire steady. We need to replace Casemiro though, he looked a yard slower than everyone. Was curious that neither Cunha nor Mbeumo made the squad. They both need minutes with their new teammates.

Also the weather in Chicago, seemed worse than anything I've ever seen at Old Trafford.

Just watched the replay this morning. The step up on intensity is clear to see. Watching players swarm around the opposition is quite refreshing. It's important that those players can also play out of those crowded areas if we win the ball back though. Casimero failed to do this a few times and Bruno also. When the opposing team comes out of these situations with the ball, we are often left exposed.

Much better though.

Whilst I agree he is a yard slower Casemiro was the man breaking the lines and playing the ball forward alot. A very wet pitch he could of went and slid too far at times and got a red but he was calm Most of the time

The team is definitely starting to click and some very good intriquet passing almost sent Hojlund 1 on 1 at times.

Can Heaton not kick the ball? Pulling shaw over to kick made Yoro job harder I taught.
