QUESTION 3

Which tactical switch changed the game? Was it one of the subs, Mata, Fellaini or Sanchez? Moving Matic & Pogba into a back three and pushing the full backs on?

@CarsonAMerk (NT): To me, it was the collective of subs. At the time, it seemed like Jose panicked with the early substitute, but in the end, he obviously had a plan and it paid off.

@ol14__ (RDA): Agreed. The subs changed the game with all of them making a major contribution. However, the game changer for me was being brave and putting Paul Pogba and Nemanja Matic in a back three. United could have been killed on the counter but it paid off as Pogba orchestrated proceedings second half.
