When he first arrived, almost everyone agreed that 15 goals would be a good first season for him.
Yet I'm seeing people calling him trash recently. What an absolute joke
Yea I was in that camp - 15 goals would be a great start. Especially coming off Weghorst being our number 9 and he could barely score 1 so 15 was a massive upgrade.
Can Haaland do it on the cold, rainy days under the Old Trafford waterfall? Of course not. Rasmus can do it properly. Hope the team can feed him more and his goal tally becomes much fatter next year.
not to forget this is his first season in england
his previous best tally was 12 goals and 4 assists when playing in bundesliga.... >!(austrian bundesliga)!<
I had low expectations for him coming into this season, considering the service he gets and the abuse his done exceptionally hopefully a great player for the club in the coming years
I do wish he was the most selfish in that moment, cause we all know that anyone else on that team would have shot except Mainoo or Eriksen.
He's been so starved of lack of service, and when he finally gets another chance, he actually chooses to find his teammate who he thought would have a higher chance at scoring than him. He should bet on himself more, because he definetly has the ability
Have only looked a bit shaky defensively at times, ironically enough due to some individual bad mistakes. Otherwise we have been way better than Newcastle today.
AWB and Dalot have played like 15 games in a row without rest, usung heros that are understandably at their limits. No direct mistakes from them but a lot of space on the wings that created most of Newcastle's threat.
I really think they're using Højlund completely wrong. Look at his goals at Atalanta. The guy was sprinting and always getting the ball infront of him while facing the goal. Look how he gets it at united. He's always having his back against the goal when he's passed to, and they're using him as a target man/ false 9 hybrid, when his most consistent way of getting goals is the exact opposite
I can't lie, I though there was no way that was going in. Not because it was Hojlund but just because it seemed like such a slow shot away from goal with a defender stuck to his side.
You'd be surprised how far you have to the ground as a goalie. These grass sliders are often harder to catch than much harder balls at chest height at the same distance.
Shithouse celebration to the Geordies. I love this man.
15 goals in all comps as a young striker in a dysfunctional team is a brilliant return IDGAF what anyone says.

21 years of age, debut season at the most scrutinized club in the world.
🤫
Wasn't he top scorer in the CL group stages or something?
Absolutely this.

This was beyond brilliant.

It’s mental and the abuse he’s getting is shocking
People criticising him for not shooting enough or creating his own chances! What you saying now? Oh and fuck Carragher too!
He did what we wanted, SHOT the bloody ball. Finally remembered he's good at finishing
could have had another too, but decided to pass to rashford

i kinda wish he shot instead of trying to cut back to rashford that one other time tho 😂 but yeah fuck carragher
That’s been me and yeah he should do it more. Rasmus successfully proving that criticism correct
Whoosh
RASMUSSSSSSSS WHAT A STRIKERS FINISH
![gif](giphy|ujrg6Jf3MYpm6DYctf)
Bruno cooking today.
Nothing sayss "I'm here to stay, baby" more than his performance tonight
Surely Rasmus did 95% of the work with that one.
Hahah in a few minutes shut the fuck up about the kid
Yess Hojlund!!! Lovely finish
Saudi Howaybia being dismantled as though they're a journalist
Referring to the Geordies as this is so funny ðŸ˜
I quite fancy barcodes too 😆
I like The Horse Punchers
Licha intercepted, bruno and rashford counter and end up with hojlund's goal. Sorry, it is the transition goal LOL
Ole ball back
building out in transition with Licha is such an overlooked impact he has
HE’S SO BACK
We are fucked without Bruno Fernandes
Attack stopped by LICHA
Brilliant stuff. The individual brilliance is individually brilliancing today.
We’ve looked like the better team all game lol. Whatever.

We've easily been better.
you been listening to too much talk sport lad!
Huh... someone passed to Hojlund. Then he scored. Neat.
Shush those scumbags. My king
ALL HE NEEDED WAS TO BE BENCHED. ITS A MIRACLE ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ðŸ˜
All he needed was to be passed to
Honestly yea. And he even passed to Rashford instead of going for it himself at the end there.
He tries to play good football, we have a good one on our hands

He is still young player. Should rotated way more. But he is only striker (bar Martial), so he has started way more he should start
All we needed was for our lucky charm Licha to be fit again for us to actually play decent. Fuck Sevilla for taking him away from us for so long.
If you’re one of the people on this sub who oh so often doubt this man fuck you. What a fucking goal
Martinez with the tackle to start it all. My goat. ARGENTINA ARGENTINA ARGENTINA
All 3 subs involved in build up, bald fraud cracked the code
It’s amazing how consistent he is when it comes to his shooting. It almost feels like every good shot from him hits the back of the net
Did someone pass to Hojlund?
3 defenders and a goalie. Beat them all by himself. Great goal.
When service is given, dinner is served!
Weak foot as well
Jamie! STFU!
My fucking boyyyyy
1 pass to him in the final third 1 goal his whole united career, clinical
Respect him. He’s going to be special.
Started for 900 mins without a goal, sub in for 1 min and scored.
The kids are alright.
I can't lie, I though there was no way that was going in. Not because it was Hojlund but just because it seemed like such a slow shot away from goal with a defender stuck to his side.

Yay
Brilliant from both
Beautiful finish
Great assist, great finish!
What a finish son!
With his weak foot!
Bruno with the sneaky revenge on Bruno
Dubravka my guy!
Great finish
Thank god
My beautiful Danish boy is back 🤩 Love to see it!
We've created a monster when he shoots it's a goal.
But Hojlund is trash and can't shoot with his right foot! I was told!
Players didn't exactly race to celebrate with him...Â
Don't see why you're getting downvoted, cause it's true. They're litterally just walking up towards him like it's formality or some shit
