    @Manny – I’m tending to agree with you regards Mkhitaryan”s suitability to the pace of the EPL,but one thing I can guarantee is that if old grandpa Mata would have played in his place there would have been no discernable difference to either the performance or the result.

    Zico….motivation and will to win has to come from within and unfortunately Miki simply doesn’t have it. All his assists in dead rubbers or against lesser teams can’t disguise the fact that his balls drop and he gives up in tight difficult games. Agree he has all the ability in the world but unfortunately he doesn’t have the head for it. Our very own version of Ozil!

    I actually think Mata would do well in a free role with this Herrera – Matic midfield pairing. Needs the pace of Martial and Rashford either side of him though

    Blacky – I never mentioned Mata so not sure why you felt the need throw him under Jose’s bus too. This was a debate about Mkhitaryan not being good enough which the majority apart from Zico tend to agree. You know Zico is struggling to defend himself when he tries to drag Carrick into the conversation.

    Change the personal all you want, the real issue is the man sitting in the managers seat.

    Chelsea started the season during his second spell in globetrotter fashion. We suffered a heavy loss to Spurs and Jose went and hired a A380 from down the road in Heathrow for the remainder of the season and ground out a title.

    He turned Joe Cole into a water carrier and sold robben and duff never to replace them. Width is the enemy when playing Jose’s anti football and you need 11 giants who can kick talented players over or knock it long to Fellani…. Mata stands no chance… He looks half the player he was with us and he was special twinkle toes stuff.

    Anyhow guys, I’ve never seen such a terrible performance from a side at the bridge with the talent at your disposal.

    @Manny – I only mentioned Mata because I know that you would have had him in the team instead of Mikki,despite the fact the he has produced absolutely zilch all season so far.
    It has to be significant that he wasn’t even on the bench on Sunday,yet McTominay and Lingard were both there.Even when he has been a substitute recently a player as bad as Lingard gets the call first.I reckon he must be thinking of a move back to Spain sooner rather than later by now.

    Blacky-I hope Mata makes a move to China come January never to be seen/heard again near United.If we can get one of Draxler and/or L.Moura,Miki too can fuck-off.He is wandering around like a 9-month old pregnant woman without a care in this world!.

    Blacky – There are definitely better options out there than Mata and Mkhitaryan.
