Thought Fred was actually OK today. Don't read that as me saying he deserves to be starting for Manchester United, but thought he was far from the biggest problem out there. Thought his workrate was good and his general passing was tidy enough. Completely agree that he is wasteful in the final third. Think he definitely suits sitting a bit deeper as a playmaker. Pereira was awful again and shouldn't be anywhere near the United squad. Was very annoyed that Levitt wasn't even on the bench - arguably a huge ask to throw him in against Villa but he was highly impressive in Europe midweek and couldn't do worse than Pereira. 

Defensively we look very frail. Maguire still hasn't proved he's an 80 million quid defender and thought AWB had his worst game in a United shirt.
