‘Gives me Thomas Muller vibes’ – Man United fans blown away by star after display in 2-1 win against Chelsea
Man United fans were blown away by Scott McTominay’s “unstoppable” outing against Chelsea on Wednesday night (6 December) – and are convinced they have spotted the “next Thomas Muller in their ranks”.
The Scotsman was flying against the Blues and bagged himself a match-winning brace at Old Trafford in the 2-1 win to get the Red Devils up to third place.
United hearts were in their mouths after Robert Sanchez saved Bruno Fernandes’ early penalty, but McTominay responded just 10 minutes later with a cool touch and quick finish in the box to make it 1-0.
Cole Palmer’s equaliser gave Erik ten Hag’s underpressure side work to do, but the 26-year-old once again answered the question and left Levi Colwill on the deck to head home the winner from Alejandro Garnacho’s precise cross.
McTominay is now United’s top goal scorer with six in all competitions after his excellence under the lights, and fans have taken to social media to hail their “Big Mac”.
This supporter likened the midfielder to World Cup and two-time Champions League winner Thomas Muller.
This fan urged McTominay’s douters to remain humble after his display.
This fan compared him to a certain Brazilian striker.

This fan could not contain his emotion after his brace.
One fan has noted McTominay’s influence this campaign and claimed he’s “saved” United’s season.
