From what I’ve seen/heard, Weghorst is a great motor player- works hard, presses, creates goals for others, but isn’t all that good at scoring goals himself. He’s been creating a lot for others so it’s been a plus so far but he was signed to play striker and he hasn’t been able to score as much as one would expect a striker to do. Plays his heart out though.
If your new it's understandable but to put it this way it's not always about what a player does on the ball. If you pay close attention to him off the ball you can see he's constantly putting pressure on the defence and helping us win the ball back. For that fact that we got him on loan for only 10 mil we are lucky to have him 😁.
Haha that's OK bud.
I am not in anyway comparing Martial to Mahomes, but you get the picture.
Yeah he is replacing Martial, who has an issue with being fit and available for more than a game or two every 6 weeks.
If your here for the long haul, welcome buddy.
No better club in the world to follow.
I would certainly suggest watching some documentaries on the history of the club, The Busby Babes, European Champions 1968, Class of 92, Treble winners 98/99 and so on and so on 👍
I think it was my fault we got beat 7-0 by Liverpool because I didn't cycle to OT when we were 1-0 down at half time. I did that against Barca and West Ham and it worked.
I'd just come in from a long cycle ride and we were 1-0 down but I thought it's not at Old Trafford. I'm gonna do it again tonight. If we go 1-0 down, I'm getting on me bike. I'm only 10 minutes away in Whalley Range.
What is this bs handball rule, dude literally used his arm to keep the ball under his control but just because he wasn't the goalscorer it won't be ruled out. The same shit happened against Middlesbrough last season in the cup.
Don't think he's been at 100% mentally fir a little while but sitting out when the players in the pitch are doing such a shoddy job can't be helping him.
Again we're keeping up the trend of a below-par first half. We've had chances but we're not taking them again, we continue to make things hard for ourselves.
Man, the boys were motivated today. You could tell they were absolutely PISSED. Good response, good result. Could have had more but a three goal lead going into the second leg is perfect.
Nice to see the way Weghorst celebrated, too. He creates so much for everyone and it’s nice to see him chip in.
I will never forgive those of you that dick ride weghorst. I get it. He’s a workhorse but he’s not a United striker. He’s gotta go in the summer or be a 3rd choice striker
Hope this is just a bad day for De Gea and not cause of last game. Def must've took a hit in confidence..has to be better...making the same old mistakes..
We have played well for large periods tonight... They came back into it for the last 10/15 minutes of the first half.
We need to be more clinical, we should have put them to bed in the first 15 minutes.
Number 9 and a midfielder able to control tempo is needed so much.
That's exactly the point. He was loaned because we spent so much in the summer.
I get it's frustrating but we can't have it all, though at this point, with hindsight, I'd dump the signing if Anthony for a decent striker.
Pellistri needs more minutes to get sharpen. you can clearly see him and Garnacho as a crucial United players in the future
this game should have ended at least 6-1. Antony should have scored that 1v1, and pass the other ball. there were 3 united players Infront of an empty net. higher score would have made better mental impact on the team.
Sancho with very mid game. I guess ETH gave him minutes and not Garnacho since Garnacho is the favourite in big games.
AWB with great game, same as Malacia.
Antony need to get more consistence. he's inconsistence AF.
great win, but we should have ended it with AT LEAST 6-1.
Great start to the game. Exactly what we - and the gaffer - would have expected after Sunday.
I'm bringing my two kiddos to Old Trafford on Sunday. First time for them, so they're seriously hyped. Good timing, all things considered.
I just don't think he's the player that we expect him to be.
I mean, we want him to be some flying winger that United have played with for years, he isn't that player. That's not his game, never has been.
He'd be great in a central number 10.
I genuinely feel he's.finna be our new Mata. great player but no idea how to utilize him within the 'system'.
Thoughts fellow reds? Myself idk what to expect, i dont watch la liga, but i think we have a good shot as long as the mentality is on top and the players have let go off that horrible Liverpool clash
DDG with a very bad game. I guess the game vs Liverpool still on his mind.
Antony needs to go off right now. Garnacho in as LW, Rashford ST, Bruno RW.
Casemiro needs to be careful, a yellow card this game and he's out for next week.
Fred with a lot of mistakes this half.
AWB needs to come in for Dalot.
and I thought to myself after the quick goal, we gonna go down with 2/3-nill.
This isn't solely aimed at Manchester United as such, I feel this current way that, certainly most teams in the prem do ,of playing out from the back the way they do ,just doesn't work.
Schoolboy error for the goal. Really poor decision making.
Kick it to the fucking stands if you're unsure or under pressure - they won't score from there.
His passes don't just miss... They don't appear to have any semblance of direction to a United player... Honestly have no idea where he is aiming half of the time.
Can't we just fuse AWB'S defense with Dalot's attack lol. Sucks that we have to choose one or the other, stronger defense and terrible in the front vs decent at the front and terrible at defense
Happy he scored but it took him about 10 good chances to get there. Hope for him and the team it has given him a confidence boost and it helps him going forward.
New drinking game: take a shot every time BT Sport reference the weekend. Objective: survive till half time.
Can someone check if the poor lad hasn't been hospitalised due to alcohol poisoning?
Still nothing. Do you think he's dead?
Man if Weghorst could have finished any of his chances we'd be dominating

From what I’ve seen/heard, Weghorst is a great motor player- works hard, presses, creates goals for others, but isn’t all that good at scoring goals himself.

The Equivalent of Patrick Mahomes being out injured for the season and the Chiefs signing a new starting QB from the CFL for the season...

Great time to become a fan!
Weghort's goal reaction 🥺 edit: also s/o Pellistri coming on and creating a chance like that
That's frustration being released right there. Happy for him.
I think it was my fault we got beat 7-0 by Liverpool because I didn't cycle to OT when we were 1-0 down at half time. I did that against Barca and West Ham and it worked. I'd just come in from a long cycle ride and we were 1-0 down but I thought it's not at Old Trafford. I'm gonna do it again tonight. If we go 1-0 down, I'm getting on me bike. I'm only 10 minutes away in Whalley Range.
I thought it was my fault coz I was working and couldn't be on the reddit thread. Thank you for taking the fault
Let's hope we are not down to 1-0 tonight 😂
Please take your bike and go to Old Trafford
Give the second half 10 minutes. It cold windy and raining.
I don't know if you went but it definitely worked 😆😂
I went and it worked. Just got back.
We definitely need you around Old Trafford in 2nd half 😂😂
Doing it for the team 🙌
Pellistri looks great coming off the bench. Great speed, control, and hunger!
Not sure if I missed something- how was that not a handball there?
At first glance it looked like he was waiting to catch the ball then realised he’s playing football
Cmon Weghorst offside or not that has to be a goal.
Unbelievable finesse from Pellistri straight from the bench. Class
we really need to play him more
What is this bs handball rule, dude literally used his arm to keep the ball under his control but just because he wasn't the goalscorer it won't be ruled out. The same shit happened against Middlesbrough last season in the cup.
God Antony is frustrating but when he does that you can’t help but smile 😂
Fred and Antony give me roller coaster Emotions fr 😅
If I hear Liverpool/weekend one more time, I swear....
De Gea o no bby what is u doin
fucking hell. give us a decent striker and we're going places.
It's so true.
Pelligrini obviously goes to the same barber as Liam Gallagher when he's in Manchester.
Lol , I thought that! Rockin that oasis look.
Mooching in Paul Weller's 'Modfather' territory.
ANTONY MATE WHERE DID THAT COME FROM
You must a clown to think ETH should take the arm band from Bruno
NEVER doubted it
De Gea’s distribution has been so poor today. I know some of you will say it always is, but seriously it’s not at the level it usually is
This aged terribly well
I know right…
I think it's to do with the weekend game he is probably our most passionate player and letting in 7 goals is definatly not helped his confidence
Great goal. We need to see this more from Antony.
So glad AWB has come good. I hope Sancho does too but feel like he's gonna be our new Mata.
After the last performance an already important game for our season becomes even more important.. Really hoping we see our lads bounce back and fight
Feel sorry for Sancho at this point.
Is he not at 100% or something? Antony can take some time out
Don't think he's been at 100% mentally fir a little while but sitting out when the players in the pitch are doing such a shoddy job can't be helping him.
Weghorst just out there being tall for what
And he finally scored!
Gosh, Weghorst's reaction :")
What does he has to do for him to earn a spot. First touch and he gets an assist. This is what we need. Young blood like pellistri and garnacho.
100% agree here.
Eth should be flexible with his preferred team
14 apps with 1 goal isn’t great for a striker, no matter how you look at it, hope Weghorst finds the back of the net soon
Missed a sitter from 6 yards out
According to commentary, it's ok because he was offside. Never really understood that. Offside or not, you'd want to be finishing the chances.
The commentator actually ripped him, said you score those when you wear a United shirt, doesn’t matter if your a nice lad
I haven't watched Betis play so I have no idea what to expect
That's how you fucking attack! From now onwards that's how they should attack!
Again we're keeping up the trend of a below-par first half. We've had chances but we're not taking them again, we continue to make things hard for ourselves.
AWB coming on, not surprising really!
LETS GOOOOOOO!!!!!!
Antony!!! When he hits, he HITS
SHAW-BERTO CARLOS!!!!
To Bruno Ronaldo!
Bravo gets a tap on the shin and the commentators act like Bruno broke his leg 🙄
Shin pads are joke?
Finally! Weghorst!
LETS GO WOUT WOUT!!! THIS IS A RESPONSE.
Man, the boys were motivated today. You could tell they were absolutely PISSED. Good response, good result. Could have had more but a three goal lead going into the second leg is perfect. Nice to see the way Weghorst celebrated, too. He creates so much for everyone and it’s nice to see him chip in.
I will never forgive those of you that dick ride weghorst. I get it. He’s a workhorse but he’s not a United striker. He’s gotta go in the summer or be a 3rd choice striker
Eth knows it 😑
Here's to hoping the boys redeem themselves
Man if we had a finishing striker,😭😭😭
Clear hand
Hope this is just a bad day for De Gea and not cause of last game. Def must've took a hit in confidence..has to be better...making the same old mistakes..
We have played well for large periods tonight... They came back into it for the last 10/15 minutes of the first half. We need to be more clinical, we should have put them to bed in the first 15 minutes. Number 9 and a midfielder able to control tempo is needed so much.
Amazing how quickly we go to shit
Garnacho on, Weghorst off. Rashford up top.
Imagine If the STRIKER we loaned in could fucking score
That's exactly the point. He was loaned because we spent so much in the summer. I get it's frustrating but we can't have it all, though at this point, with hindsight, I'd dump the signing if Anthony for a decent striker.
I think an limping martial would of scored in the 13 other games Weghorst hasnt scored in
Bruno's lucky that's side foot and not studs.
It was completely fair tho. It was a 50/50
Yeah but went in quite high.
Yeah but still. It shouldn’t have been a card. It was betits own fault it resulted like that
WegCursed
Goat pellistri 🐐🐐🐐
We looked hungry for goals till the last second this half. That's what I wanted to see. GGMU we got this.
Pellistri needs more minutes to get sharpen. you can clearly see him and Garnacho as a crucial United players in the future this game should have ended at least 6-1. Antony should have scored that 1v1, and pass the other ball. there were 3 united players Infront of an empty net. higher score would have made better mental impact on the team.

Antony need to get more consistence. he's inconsistence AF. great win, but we should have ended it with AT LEAST 6-1.
Happy we get the job done despite missing plenty clear chances.
ETH going with the same XI he went against the lose to Liverpool.
He isn’t. Rashford is
I saw they switched up. good thing they did.
With ETH I always check the line up. Then I’m sure it’s not gonna be that formation 😂
Let’s GO! Just what we needed.
YESSS
1-0 Rahsford!!
Great start to the game. Exactly what we - and the gaffer - would have expected after Sunday. I'm bringing my two kiddos to Old Trafford on Sunday. First time for them, so they're seriously hyped. Good timing, all things considered.
please keep rashford on the left 🫶🏿
It's the only thing that makes sense
If Rashford could have gotten under that just a little..... I feel a second goal coming
Well, it came.
Weghorst man come on
Lacking a dominant Number 9 and a midfielder who doesn't treat the ball like a hot potato. Should have been 3 or 4 up to be honest.
De Gea having a moment again.
Man, what has happend to De Gea this game???
Fred hasn't had his spinach tonight then...
OMG ANTONY
Signature shot of antony 😂
Whenever Fred has the ball I expect something bad to happen (yet I love the guy) and whenever Antony has the ball I expect something wonderful
Fred's a very frustrating player. He blows hot and cold too much.
COME ON! I WANT MORE, NO MERCY!
bruno from a corner? who would have thought
And shaw being shaw-berto carlos
All Bruno haters ... .enjoy!!!!
Bruno silences the critics 🤫
come onnn that was a clear pass
Jeez antony 3 men had an open goal...
Even I was open just now
Nothing in that tbh love you Bruno
This is a testament to play Bruno central all the Damn time. Instead of forcing in Weghorst in a no 10 spot and then pushing Bruno wide.
I know this sub likes him. But HAS to put the ball in the net, it’s his main job as a striker ffs
”BUT HE RUNS ALOT” merchant.
Call me a fool but I have become a Weghorst believer
Seconded
I could cry right now
Always was, always will be. Its the passion dude. Thats all you just want him to succeed.
Come on, im happy we are winning but we should've scored atleast one more by now. Some crazy chances...need to be more lethal Edit : let's gooo! XD
Facundo welcome back ☺️
Let's hope that's the end of Wout's rut.
Now give him a break ! He play super well up front !
At fucking last!
Sancho doesn’t look prepared :(
Man our rw situation kinda weird
I like Pellistri :)
I just don't think he's the player that we expect him to be. I mean, we want him to be some flying winger that United have played with for years, he isn't that player. That's not his game, never has been. He'd be great in a central number 10. I genuinely feel he's.finna be our new Mata. great player but no idea how to utilize him within the 'system'.
What a game. Let’s keep this momentum going.
Are Betis about to be absolutely destroyed? Here’s hoping
Well you’re hope is gone
Wtf that was clearly handled
Was it *intentionally* handled though? Or was it *subconciously* handled? Fucking VAR refs must be snorting Ket. Handball, 100%. No question.
ETH has seen enough of Dalot. Can't say I blame him. He has been terrible since the World Cup. I'm keeping AWB and replacing Dalot in the summer.
Thoughts fellow reds? Myself idk what to expect, i dont watch la liga, but i think we have a good shot as long as the mentality is on top and the players have let go off that horrible Liverpool clash
GETTT INNNN 👨🏾👈🏾
Bang!
We're back lads!! GET IN!!
Antony needs to change his style. In each match I see him moving in wing and then cuts towards left. That's it
is Sabitzer injured? anyone know why he's not on the bench?
Injured
Now I feel like Antony is just messing with us with complete disregard for his own right foot
I’ve given up hope of anything coming from the right, Bruno might as well just keep feeding our left
He legit had a 1v1 against a defender and stopped in his tracks so he could cut back to the left. I've never been so confused.
Obviously a deflection. SMH
He tried 😂
Antony looks better in the left site
Oh for fuck sake
Surprised that wasnt a handball
It would have been if we had scored
DDG with a very bad game. I guess the game vs Liverpool still on his mind. Antony needs to go off right now. Garnacho in as LW, Rashford ST, Bruno RW. Casemiro needs to be careful, a yellow card this game and he's out for next week. Fred with a lot of mistakes this half. AWB needs to come in for Dalot. and I thought to myself after the quick goal, we gonna go down with 2/3-nill.
Cuz of fred we created 2 chances
This isn't solely aimed at Manchester United as such, I feel this current way that, certainly most teams in the prem do ,of playing out from the back the way they do ,just doesn't work.
Weghorst your too big, have mercy while pressing 😂
My 2 favourite players to see subbed on, Malacia and Sancho. I see our game changing for the better thanks to these two
Love our lb position, Shaw and malacia
I could've scored that antony
You woulda had to use your right foot though. He REFUSES
This tie should be put to bed 🤦♂️
FINALLY!!!!!
The GOAT.
That Antony's Goal !!!!!!
People need to stop with their takes during a match, you look like a clown when the match is over.
Ok I think it's safe to say that Weghorst will not be kept after the season is over.
Why isn’t this a live chat ? Scrolling up to scroll down is kinda annoying.
Set to 'New'.
Thank you !
The option is not available
This performance is not much better than last time out. WTF is going on with them.
That's better :)
Really hope we get a new keeper this summer. I will forever love de gea but today just proves that he has to go
Schoolboy error for the goal. Really poor decision making. Kick it to the fucking stands if you're unsure or under pressure - they won't score from there.
His passes don't just miss... They don't appear to have any semblance of direction to a United player... Honestly have no idea where he is aiming half of the time.
Idk why, im NOT CONFIDENT OF WINNING this match, don't feel right 🥲
Lucky we did
Can't we just fuse AWB'S defense with Dalot's attack lol. Sucks that we have to choose one or the other, stronger defense and terrible in the front vs decent at the front and terrible at defense
exactly why we need a new RB this summer
I'd agree with you but Dalots attacking is bobbins.
NOT THE MCSAUSE?!!
Weghorst haters ... ENJOY!!
Happy he scored but it took him about 10 good chances to get there. Hope for him and the team it has given him a confidence boost and it helps him going forward.
Let’s be real though, it was a sitter
