SUNDERLAND 0-3 MANCHESTER UNITED : WHAT WE LEARNT

Manchester Unuted cruised back to 5th position on the premier league table on the wings of Sunderland, thanks to wonder-shot from Zlatan, and deft finishes from Mikhi and our own Marcus "Rashidi-Yekini". Here's what we learnt form the victory:

1. CAPTAIN FELLAINI
Mou's love for his "adopted" son Oga Fela, hit a new high at the Stadium of Light with the Afro Belgian leading the team as CAPTAIN. And so Fellaini found himself playing as captain for his Father against his grand-father "Davido" Moyes....He gave
his best in the way he knows how to.

2. UNITED ARE EASY TO DEFEND AGAINST.
The team currently lacks attackers who run into channels( or maybe it's the style of play). The forward players- Zlatan, Mikhi, Lingard, Martial-seem to want the ball to feet, - making marking very easy. Creativity and the surprise have been lost in the final third play.

3. ANOTHER  ZLATANSTIC GOAL
Another day, yet another goal from our talk-na-do striker, commander in chief of goal forces, Zlatan "Ekwueme" Ibrahimovic. A goal of the top drawer to decorate a brilliant performance where he also laid on an assist for Marcus 'Rashidi' to break his barren run.....The best moment of the boring match.

4.  FINALLY MARCUS "RASHIDI" GETS IT
What a relief. Our 'Wizkid' Marcus Rashidi finally netted his 4th Premier League goal of the season, to break a 20-match barren run in the EPL. We hope the floodgates have finally opened, because United needs goals from all over the pitch to make sure we end the season on a high.

5.  ROJO-BAILLY COLLABO INSPIRES CONFIDENCE.
The chemistry (abi physics) between the two "No-Nosense" center backs appears to be coming good. They seem to be the best centre back pairing in the squad.

......IN THE END, United may have beaten 10-man Sunderland by a good goal margin, but fans expected a better play. Well, it's 3 points in the bag.
 Up next, Anderlect (Europa league); SAME TIME, SAME STATION, ON THURSDAY.
Glory Glory Man United.

Was Larsson's tackle on Herrera a red card offence?
