Got the job done.

Enzo, Gallagher, Badiashile all excellent

Good to see Reece get some minutes, had some nice moments but maybe not 100% sharp yet...

Sterling I thought came off the boil a bit at one point but then found his composure again and had a good game overall.

Really the only concern for me is Jackson looked quite dejected.

I would see us as favourites against all but pool and newcastle

Newcastle and Liverpool are the two most likely winners.

Only way one of them does not win is of they face each other, then the winner plays West Ham,  or us if Poch sorts out our attack, in the semi.

Pool vs Toon final looks likely if the draw keeps them apart.

if it's any consolation on the distance we need to travel, things actually look a bit worse at Old Trafford

They should be where we are in the league right now. A few world class goals against the likes of Burnley and Sheffield United are the only reason why they're not. They look like they can get smashed by everybody. We drop points because we lack concentration at vital moments, United drop points because they get dominated all over the pitch.

We just need to give him a run of games, he just needs a bit of luck, as soon as one goal goes in, they'll start flowing. Have faith, eventually Torres Morata Higuain Lukaku Aubameyang Falcao Kezman Jackson will come good.

Pato slipped your mind.

 
Comfortable win without being too impressive. Big save from Sanchez at the end to keep a clean sheet. If we were playing well we would have scored a hatful. Positive to see James and Badashiele back. Palmer is a class act and Sterling had his moments. Jackson seems to have lost confidence and needed to score from that one good chance he had. In retrospect he never should’ve been put under the pressure of leading the line for us this season. He’s trying hard and credit to him for not hiding.

 
A win is a win, I'd take anything right now 😄 It's not that bad of a performance despite the obvious deficiency, we actually scored more than a goal. Nice to have a couple of important players back, hope they came through and be ready for the weekend

 
Can't be too critical but had Blackburn been a EPL team we might have been punished a few times.  And I wish that in the future when buying a back four player they can pass the ball FORWARD more than 2 feet because this pass, pass, pass across the backline is driving me nuts.   Jackson, needs to go and play in the U21's for a while and find his goal scoring boots or go on loan in January.   Another 22 shots at goal - 7 on target - 31% ..shocking.    Don't know what Maatsen has to do to get some minutes or Washington for that matter, surely he can't be worse than Jackson.   I can see Potch play a false nine or Palmer up top on Monday.    I did notice a few times that Potch was getting angry......good because this lot of youngsters need a kick up the arse at times.  

 
Get on with the draw for f**ks sake. We don't need to hear "Andrew" Cole talk endless braindead sh*te about Man f**king Utd. 

 
is Palmer injured, he looked discomforted in the 2nd half?

 
1. Middlesbrough
2. Port Vale
3. Liverpool
4. Chelsea
5. Everton
6. Fulham
7. Newcastle United
8. West Ham United

Yes, that'll do wonders for his confidence.

He needs to put the ball in the net and score goals to get his confidence back albeit in a lower level.  Running around like a headless chicken with two left feet looking like a clown at times isn't doing much good for him in the first team either is it.
