Good game for Hojlund.
Malacia Is just as bad as Dalot.
Hope we find better players to cover left.

Having watched the highlights, I wonder if it was Rashford instead of Højlund, he would have chased down the ball and created the chance.

1st Bodø goal was a good one, 2nd Bodø goal was Malacia getting outrunned, and it blasted in between Onana's legs.

Højlund 1st goal had flashes of Cantona and RvN, control to volley, great goal.
His 2nd was just poacher instinct, too bad he could not react fast enough, or could have gotten a hat trick.

It is on the back of this performance, I think we maybe looking at a draw on Sunday.
Bodø is 2nd tier Europe team at best, and we grinded to a 3-2 win.

At least Luke is back, and if we can have another centre back return, we can have a decent back 3 instead of makeshift. And have Mazraoui and Shaw as wingbacks.

Højlund played the full 90 mins, may not get to play on Sunday.
I like him, he has good workrate. Need players like him, Amad and Mazraoui to create an onfield attitude.

I don't think we will have much to look forward to for Jan transfer window, too bad for Amorim.

Hopefully get a win against Everton, at the very least, do not lose.

Everton that good meh ??...they haven't scored a goal in their last few games but I believe red pussies can at least score 1 goal if not more if RA put in his best XI

Yes, Mazraoui was outstanding. That assist, sure didn't expect that.
This coming from where he is playing as CB.
Can see he was very fired up.

When he was introduced to the media, he was like a add-on with all the limelight on De Ligt. But he was the first to be thrown into the fray as wingback under Ten Hag.
Since then, he had cemented a place as wingback and a sure starter.
He is definitely a keeper.
Of course, two goal hero Hojlund starts to prove everyone wrong, me included.

The pussies cannot even beat relegation Ipswich wor....
now every team cannot be underestimated.

Anyway, there seemed to be hope for 3-4-3 as I saw the pussies kept the pressure on Bodo at certain prolong periods of the match.
But I think stamina got the better of them, and they took the pedal off.

Btw, why De Ligt was sub out for Casemiro?

Casemiro commit handball on the edge of the box in the dying moments and if not for Onana, it would have been 3-3.

But good call to sub out Malacia at HT. Malacia was outruned by Zinckernagel to concede 2nd goal.
After "nuaing" for the entire last season, Malacia looks like not up to par. Better ship him out as Carrington is not nursing home.

His replacement, Dalot, fare no better. Twice do dangerous backpass. One led to Onana scrambling out and commit handball outside the box.
But luckily VAR rule the act as unintentional. So no red card.
(Sometimes really dunno how VAR function......)
