Being realistic the result was about right.
Origi had a decent game mate, even Tyler and Neville were praising his contribution.
You're right about Lallana and Can though, they were largely anonymous and I also agree about A-A, he did look a bit out of his depth at times but to be fair to the lad debut's don't come much tougher than that (i.e away at Old Trafford with a pace merchant like Martial running at you all game).
A-A will come good it's just that a contest of that magnitude was probably a little bit too soon for him.
A tactical game which for the most part we controlled, in the sense it was played on our terms tactically. United had to go route 1 to get back in it, and even then thru an offsides goal....
Within the tactical scheme, Lallana and Can were solid...
I thought TAA did ok. Got a lot of help as one should expect, but MU were never able to hurt us thru the right.
Floyd stepped left and threw the hook that caught Hatton flush under the chin. Finally, the British champ had arrived in that mythical place of which his fans speak: Hatton Wonderland.
