The Red Devils dominated the opponents as Marcus Rashford scored a couple of goals at 18th and 67 minutes. Anthony Martial and Danial James netted goals at 65th and 81st minute respectively. Daniel James was on cloud nine to have scored a goal in his debut game. With performances like these, Manchester United obviously walked away with the last laugh and the netizens could not stop trolling Frank Lampard’s side for the loss.

Bad defence.
Today's match clearly shows how Luiz was surplus to requirement in chelsea defense and without his "erratic" defending they are now a defensive brick wall!! What a horrible purchase for Arsenal even for 8 Million! LMAO!
