Manchester united vs swansea reaction

Manchester united running riot at Liberty stadium

     Was Manchester united unplayable, no. Was they utterly dominant in position, again no is the answer then why does the headline suggest that . The answer is they do have  a Real Madrid persona about them nowadays. They come they win they go. No more than the needed emotions attached to any victory and yes this is what Mourinho is capable of .
The game started with a surprise by swansea almost taking the lead in the 3rd minute of the game from an Jordan Ayew right footer which rattled the cross bar. Few minutes later it was Phil jones turn to rock the post from Mata cross . As time passed united struggled to create any clear cut chances even with plenty of position in their hand. The only clear chance they got was at the stroke of half time from thumping header of Pogba again hitting the bar but it bounced just in front of Bailey. He was not going to miss from that range.

Once united scored the first goal  we all knew it will be hard for swansea to strike back but the united back wall this season is as good as Chelsea wall last season (if you know what i mean) . Only worth mentioning action of swansea attack that period came from Abrahams header through a Caroll cross which was way off mark . With time ticking faster swansea tried to move the game faster which left them vulnerable at the back and left Lukaku and Pogba to score two goals from Mkhitaryan cross leaving swansea in rut . The cherry at the top came when Martial was allowed a free run towards their post scoring fourth united goal. 

It's only the second game and united are leading most of their rival by  two or three points the only team who can catch them this week is Manchester city and doesn't that tell you the whole story . This year's title race in England will most probably be a Manchester affair unless others decide to do something about it fast
