W starts in goal. He's kept a clean sheets this season are really settled back.
Four of Sean Maguire Lindelof and one Bisakha Matic and Fred will sit as a two holding number sixes and then ahead of them.
Probably for me. One of the players of the season,
Bruno Fernandes, got 14 goals,
nine assists both or club highs Marshall on the left that Daniel James on the right and upfront Marcus Rashford as a lone striker who also has a bunch of
goals this season. Eight goals and six assists.
Then you call Santa team.
Danny now, Steve Bruce Lee makes the one change of Joe Ellington replacement Dwight Gayle Crafton.
Lewis will be expected to get forward of the teams only with port will be vulnerable defensively out wide.
Hayden will sit at the base of the diamond with Shelvey and will look more advanced armor on will play just behind the front two strikers who will look to
get behind.
Manchester knighted Highline and the message from Premier League footballers remains no place for racism.
Well, given where each is currently situated,
here is.
A case for one side of promise for the other of threat.
Manchester United's carrot his Newcastle stick.
We look. Shelby's hosted up high.
It's a bit of a nasty upper under foot to her who applies a knuckle.
I came out to
John Linton, entered a had to rise in sprightly fashion to turn it over.
Yeah, and I think
he had to deal with a deflection because it.
I mean it's a slip from Shelby and it's it's just gonna be really and.
Yeah, I just wonder whether they was looking for the free kick,
but it came off Lindelof back and the goalkeeper had a minor readjustment but nonetheless a very good one.
That's the difference, since Graham Jones has arrived and they wouldn't have thought about that
to his clearance
came to Charlington. And Shelby hit it
high. Well,
that was Allison. Quality of light.
If I can make that comparison.
Uhm, I mean he he should be clearing the scene.
He knows it because immediately he apologized after Shelby shot went high.
There you go. The hands were in the air,
and Steve Bruce thought just keep it down,
son. And he, he couldn't.
Short
Bruno Fernandes he caught
it nicely, bounce back out of Clarke forward again from McGuire is reckoned to be a very,
very special talent, but. Well,
more on his behind that,
let's let him grow up and find out and not expect him to be the next Pele.
Yeah donor, he pulled that pressure on him.
But yeah, as mentioned before that he's he's a bright spark on their own.
And this is another example.
Hernandez, busacca maximum getting a shot away and Tyler had a clearview of it.
Rashford tracks it away from craft and takes
the fall back out of the game,
at least in the immediate term
rash layoff. He saw a light in their posts and he thrashed him.
That's cutting. It's a super goal.
From a super player in super form.
No goalkeeper likes to be defeated at his near post.
Karl Darlow may admonish himself,
but Rashford was just so sharp,
so clever,
so fleet of foot and Newcastle United are behind in Old Trafford while it turned out to
be craft against craft and it's brilliant from Rashford and that's why he loves being on this side.
He's less comfortable on the right hand side,
but when he's on this side,
he's just knows that he could always move inside onto that.
Right foot and even though the Swedes seemed to get back in position,
the little shift in shoe and it caught Darlow out 'cause I think it goes through.
The fullbacks legs in the end and the keeper might be thinking well,
yeah, on a better night.
I keep that out.
Goal against Newcastle here at Old Trafford on Boxing Day last season at Saint James is a beautiful assist for Bruno Fernandes at the stoppage time goal.
Past cold or low this season
and again.
He
is proving himself a thorn in the
side of Magpies. Shelby, with which?
And depth. Some
maximum water safe. He had to get up in
a hurry, tavita her there was a weapon purpose in that shot.
Well,
this is a superb from Sam Maximum.
Think he? He had it in his mind from the start.
If he got that yard space,
the only thing he hasn't managed to do is keep it wider by going down the middle,
you expect that to be the case from there.
When it's done by Willock out by
McGuire, some maximum rifles it into the roof and has New Castle level.
That's a truly crisp finish.
Had a goal that matters to Magpies.
What a super hit.
What's a great hit and what I like is the technique because he had to make sure he kept that down so I maximum and he did exactly that and
what a follow up to the first shot.
And of course all from the corner.
And this header while. Backpedaling by Harry Maguire wasn't great,
but Fred could have reacted a bit smarter.
Maybe Maguire could have directed elsewhere,
but it's falling nicely and he just had to get over it as he went for the side foot,
have volley and he did just that.
Yeah, I mean he could have even conceded a corner.
Harry Maguire might have been the safer option.
But Sam Maxima has punished
it chalati help but feel
very pleased for him that he has been able to enjoy that moment.
Well, he might be out.
Sorry Jim. There's a bit of a flare up here involving Fred and Isaac Hayden.
I think 1 bicycle is just making the piece armor on is also caught up in the thick of it.
Well, the two original protagonists,
Bruno Fernandes and Isaac
Hayden, are the
recipients, each of
a yellow card.
Hold up by Clark supported here by Fred it's frenship that Donald has hold.
Yeah, I
thought Marcial did very well in holding that and and dragging Clark out of position and then maybe just opened up a little gap for Fred to have a goat.
But in the flexion on the way through as well.
But that's. Down the middle you know that the keeper is likely to be present target.
Square instead for Shelby and Shelby is lifted it
in Loftily out by
Fred. Some maximum down here was down sharply.
I can't believe that he's
able to take that
touch on the edge of the box when Manchester United had gone through the second phase from.
You know, uh, a free kick.
If you gotta get to quicker and it's kind of back turning,
certainly from one basaka good save.
Hello, speak turn from the manumatic.
This has
come to Daniel James who Spears Manchester United back into the lead.
Time to set, measure and deliver and how he delivered.
Well, I think the New Castle Defensor and Steve Bruce are asking the question as to how he was allowed so much room.
Bones Mattich decided to to play it across.
I mean, Lewis knows he's there,
he sees it, and yet he's kind of drawn towards Bruno Fernandes.
And because it doesn't reach Fernandez,
he sucked inside and that then gives Daniel James that extra little bit of room and he had time to to pick a spot and he he picked this one
quite well. Darlow tried to get there,
went to the danger, but James was dumb.
Quite measured in slipping that down the side.
Yeah, look lucky break really in the end that touch from Bruno Fernandes,
which I did for Jamal Lewis.
Marcial
are sweetly done. Anthony
Marcial, beaten away by Karl Darlow that had a bit of whip and swerve about it.
God quiet. Rashford
will swirling
hit, but Darlos comfortably behind
it. Craft. Fraser just kidding,
but not a problem for diet.
Come on. Message. Rashford's
he's got over. He's got a penalty.
Paul Tierney allowed barely a heartbeat before pointing at the spot,
will it committed?
And Rashford fell. Well,
I think from Willocks reaction I think it it says it all.
That's a lovely little movement of the foot.
Although. I, I mean I,
I think at the same time he's he's making the very most of it himself.
Marcus Rashford. There's a little touch on his foot.
Is that enough for him to go down?
I I wouldn't think so,
but it's the way it happens nowadays and they've had a little conversation.
Well, there's an interesting dynamic here because Bruno Fernandez has had one penalty save this season,
and Karl Darlow saved it.
So. A
jewel jewel revisited. Bruno Fernandez scores
this time and Manchester United have a comfort cushion.
Low and certain, and this time beyond Karl Darlow.
Should we start calling him penaldo?
Because he's knocking an awful lot of them in.
We have had Ronaldo at this great club.
And you, you're seeing now Newcastle protesting to Paul Tierney as to why it wasn't may be examined as a as an error.
But he doesn't bother with that Bruno Fernandes.
What a pro. What an impact.
His
22nd goal of the season,
nine of which had been penalty.
Seven of those penalties in the Premier League,
and he now has six goals in his last six games in all competitions.
Show deeper this time McGuire quite a stretch for
Karl Darlow. Come on, boys.
This is.
Yeah, well, I'm not occasionally just won his battle against Clark.
And it may have come off Clark's head before Darlow did well just to help it on its way.
So called Arlo. Wary of the third enough
little mini series of corners here.
This time sure without
Springer Mcguires header this
time is wide. They fought here.
We've got level here, having gone behind.
But the second half was a bridge too far.
Those bright smiling eyes look a
little weary and a little worried.
For
Manchester United in the end,
job comfortably done. Without much alarm,
much mutual empathy between two bosses who are heroes of this place.
But Marcus Rashford, a hero of the current age,
established the lead for them,
which Allen said Maxima wiped out before half time.
Only for Daniel James to reestablish that
advantage and from the penalty spot Bruno Fernandes to nail
the points for Manchester United,
who move back up into second
place in the Premier League this evening victors over Newcastle by three goals to one.
