Varying opinions on Ramsey. I thought he wasn't in the game enough,   "Won" the sending-off too.

Same here, didn't think he stayed wide enough and when he did, he didn't stretch them enough to get them out of their shape. Thought Rashford was understandably rusty, but offered the chance to get them going backward.

He actually ran at players, and got past them. It's something we don't do enough of in the wide areas and him driving into the box made us more dangerous.

There was a lovely moment with him and Maatsen, let down by Maatsen not continuing the overlap and Rashford playing a great ball to where he should have been. It will come.

Didn't see it, but I expect that was the Sky live commentary which was something along the lines of "And there is the Rashford we all know, plays a pass out of play".

Rashford's still getting his match fitness back; hence a performance that was a little in-and-out. Great free kick.

Not sure, but he was trying things. He was demanding the ball constantly too. He's up for it, there's no question in my mind. I'd start him on Wednesday, I think he'd give Liverpool a problem before then bringing Ramsey in to torment them further. I doubt that will happen though.

He would give "trent" a torrid time though so yes, start him and get the crowd up from the start.

I’d play him every game. We’ve only got him for 4 months so let’s make the most of it. He desperately wants a move to Barca so his motivation is sky high. Let’s make his dream come true.

And piss off Ramsey completely in the process?

Ramsey hasn't been available to help us for much of the last year. He can have no complaints.

Yes, and bring Jacob on for him on 60th minute when we are 3-0 up. I am going to sunbathe in the garden now.

It's not like he's been tossing it off for a year, he bost his foot.

One of the biggest cheers was when he chased back and put a tackle in on the advancing RB.

The media should of picked up on that and tweeted it to Amorim.

I thought he looked dangerous and if anyone was to come off it should of been Rogers who was anonymous for most of the game

I know it's not his fault, but the fact is he wasn't available so we've had to make other plans.

He had some decent performances lately. Celtic, West Ham, Spurs....mixed in with getting hooked at half time in two other games.

Fine, bring on Rashford at home to 10 man Ipswich. But Ramsey at his best gives us balance on that left side that I think Rashford will struggle to. Let's see how he goes v Liverpool, Ramsey was roasting TAA at Anfield until he limped off.
