    Liz Tray: Bruno having a staggeringly terrible Euros and looking so great for Utd today says more about the latter than the former. If I was a Leeds fan I'd be furious at this first half. This is the team that beat us, easily. I suppose that shows how bad we were!

    Robin: Think Fred has been shocking. Hasn't actively done anything bad... but really hasn't done anything. Holding midfielder to take this game by the scruff of the neck badly needed.

    Luke Ayling

    PICK THAT ONE OUT!!

    Leeds level at the start of the second half and what a hit it is from Luke Ayling.

    He didn't score last season and the home players probably feel there is no danger.

    They sit off Ayling, the Leeds man thinks I'll have a go, and have a go he does, smashing a 25-yard strike into the top corner.

    David de Gea had no chance and Ayling runs off to celebrate in front of the travelling Leeds supporters, who are bouncing in their corner of Old Trafford.

    It's been a really good game and there's been no yellow cards. The referee's allowed it to flow, which has made it an exciting game... and it's just great to be back.

    Too many times in this first half where Daniel James has promised to offer something but then falls flat.

    The Wales international works it well on the edge of the area but then dribbles a poor shot straight at Illan Meslier.

    Ole Gunnar Solskjaer tells assistant Michael Carrick to jot that down in his notebook.

    "Shooting practice on Monday morning".

    Manchester United have been the better team but Leeds haven't been that far behind.

    And typical from Marcelo Bielsa, not only does he change his system from game to game but he does it during games too. He's gone to a back three now, he's asking a different question.

    So his attitude to going behind at Old Trafford? Have a go... and I'm delighted with that.

    Leeds are still a threat in the final third as Patrick Bamford almost latches on to Raphinha's cross but Victor Lindelof is quickly in to intercept.

    Lindelof is looking to impress with Raphael Varane coming into to take his spot in the team.

    Liz Tray: Leeds tend to be either a swashbuckling irresistible team who are a bit of a shaky mess but they still win. Or they're a total mess without any coherence or shape but are a bit exciting to watch. This game is the latter.

    Armchair Football Fan: That was wayyyy too easy. Meslier giving it away from the GK again. Two passes and in behind the defence. Leeds have learnt nothing. Is an excellent pass from Pogba though tbf.

    Peter Malath: Daniel James is showing us why we had to go get Sancho.

    Leeds director of football Victor Orta was furious about something in the directors' box just before the goal.

    His colleagues seemed to find it amusing but he really wasn't happy.

    When Bruno Fernandes' effort went in, Orta punched his seat in frustration.
