What a differance he has been past few games! Alongsolide Wullie he has been brilliant.
The passion he showed after that shot he saved near end when he turned round to the east stand was class

Missed today again, but delighted for him that the performances are now there. He was always giving everything but struggling badly. Still not convinced about him at Premier league level, maybe beside the right partner tho.

Yep was actually MOTM material before his goal today. Also showed how good he did when within a minute of Donaldson getting on he fluffed two clearances which almost cost up. Big Willie is a great help to Duran and Long may it continue

Mom by a mile Houston put Lee Miller on in the belief that he could cause havoc in the air hardly noticed he was on Durnans best performance in a utd shirt

Seems like a nice young boy.Glad he's turned it round for himself somewhat after being tagged one of our worst ever players and receiving shit on Twitter last season from a few eejits.

Playing beside an experienced pro like big Willy seems to have really helped him and they're now forming a pretty good partnership.

Adding a well done to Mark Durnan, when he broke play up and strode forward I just hoped it would come good for him at that moment.

Lee Miller never won a header all day, but won a few fouls, that says more about the referee than Houston.

See Twitter and Facebook, that's why forums like this get less posts. Or am I just past it?

Times have changed.

Another thing- Tony Andreu, to me, was absolutely exceptional today.

The laddie was thrown to the wolves last season being asked to play futba fae ees ain bye line.

He's a stopper and that's what he did superbly today. When he broke up play and sprinted forward I said to my pal, he's away to score here. To see a full team piley on on front of the Dode Fox was brilliant as was the ETL chanting his name.

When we left the Heggy, bumped into him and he was great posing for pics with my young daughter. I said as much to him about the pelters etc and he just politely smiled and said, I'm a football fan too, so it goes with the territory! Agree him and The Edge look good.

That said, it was an underwhelming and lack lustre performance, perked up by Murray and Smith. I'll settle for many more ugly wins though, as the time for fantasy futba is March through May next year!

Mark received a power of abuse , some of which was deserved after last years performances but full marks to the guy, he's clearly knuckled down, working hard , listened to Ray and Wullie and is a better player this year for it.

Hopefully will continue as defence is starting to look reasonably solid after some of the keech we had last year.

MOM by a mile today, was very very pleased for him when he popped up with the winner, well done Mark D.

SuperMario · 29/10/2016 8:33 pm

I just hope that if he does make a mistake, that he doesn't get the belters he has received! He's a young laddie who was thrown right in the deep end! Really hope it works out for him seems like a good young lad

Good shout afterall by a few posters looking for him to be in the team.

Naeb'dy expected him to be the match winner though and when I watched the goal on Arabzone I was surprised how much he made the opportunity happen and raising him arm for the ball as he charged into the box. Great well timed flick by Cammy Smith (not Cammy Fraser Fooky! ) in the build up and quik wing play by Fraser ( Scott Fraser Fooky )

Was working today so missed match but really happy with the win, Durnan's reports and his response to oor Fooky T.

Hoped he had a chant and delighted to read he got one.

I'd hope any player has the scense to take little notice of Pussbook/twatter comments as often the worst are not worth worring about.

Any pics of the display?

Glad to see the turnaround in Durnan's fortunes and the drastic improvement in our defending. Also we may not be playing sparkling football and the opposition may not be the highest quality but Durnan today became the 14th different United player to score this season (and we're still in October). Can't remember when goals were so freely distributed amongst the squad

Thought that was his best game in tangerine shirt tonight v Hibs.

Looked an experienced,classy pro who never panicked and swept up everything he had to.

👏👏👏👏
