Fred’s masterclass (solid)
Exclude Cristiano Ronaldo, Fred Rodriguez was the best player on the pitch tonight. His performance against Tottenham will never go unnoticed. He was everywhere on the pitch.
Fred Rodriguez deserves a lot of praise for his performance against Tottenham tonight and I don’t think that the team could have done it without him.
The Brazilian midfielder gave everything against Tottenham and the credits goes to him. He is a top player and I think that the team needs this on Tuesday.
Cristiano Ronaldo’s hat-trick (excellent)
Cristiano Ronaldo is one of the best to ever play the game and he will never be forgotten. The Portuguese forward played like a 23-year-old striker today.
He is unstoppable and he caused problems inside the box. The Tottenham defender couldn’t stop him and I think that he is the man of the match.
Former Manchester United player Patrice Evra took to his twitter account and he wrote that, Cristiano Ronaldo should continue being a problem.
It was said that Cristiano Ronaldo was the problem that Manchester United have, but it seems like he has proved them wrong once again.

No decision has been made yet, but I think that he will stay at the club. Paul Pogba was asked after the game and he claimed that Cristiano Ronaldo was never the problem.
Jadon Sancho with another assist (Solid)
Jadon Sancho was looking dangerous until the final whistle and I think that he deserves a huge praise for his performance at Old Trafford tonight.
The English winger did extremely well and he provided one assist. He is a top guy and he has a bright future ahead of him at the club.
Harry Maguire’s own goal (good)
Harry Maguire does not have a bad game tonight, but he could be judged due to his own goal. Harry Maguire mistakenly puts the ball in his own net.
Tottenham’s Romero was in possession of scoring the goal, but he was offside and the goal will be disallowed, but the Manchester United gave his all.

The manager did well by subbing off Marcus Rashford and Nemanja Matic in the second half. Fred and Paul Pogba both had a good game and the idea of bringing Anthony Elanga was massive.
Ralf Rangnick brought fresh energy and Victor Lindelof and Edinson Cavani came on also. These players gave everything tonight. The Manchester United next game will be against Atletico Madrid.
Cristiano Ronaldo is ready to do it on the big stage once again. He has a good record against Atletico Madrid and he will prove himself once more.
Match analysis
Manchester United never gave up despite the own goal and I think that’s the mentality that the club need. Ralf Rangnick’s Reds took the lead three times.
Ralf Rangnick’s changes in the second half also made a massive impact on the game and it’s a well deserved victory. Old Trafford was pumped.
Manchester United played with high intensity and they never gave the ball away in their own half.
