    The shock at the most predictable team that could have been picked is always gold on here
     
    Like the line up, best we could have started with, Pogba just back from injury, I can see him coming on, no matter what happens in game, early goal for us would be nice, they would have to open up a bit. This is a toughie, come on lads.
     
    Player who is playing well starting games shock. I don't really have an issue with it currently, it's not like we're spoilt for alternatives who are ready to step in.

    Daniel James isn't playing well though.

    He puts a shift in, but his productivity is next to nothing.
     
    I completely agree with the team selection. If Martial and Cavani were fit, they would have to start over James but unfortunately they’re not. Pogba can’t play just yet of course; he’s back after a 6 week injury. I would have preferred to play Zlatan rather than Castillejo though. We’re at our best when playing a high line with conviction.
     
    I think I can watch this game with freedom, as I don't expect us to advance to the next round.
    Best way to not be disappointed.

    Surely you should still be disappointed as that would be another major feck up. We have the best squad in this competition FFS.

    Expected standards are so low

    Whenever i get excited it ends in utter disappointed, can't keep doing that too myself.
    But I'd like to say I won't have any disappointment at all, it will sting, sure, but not as bad as it would have been if I hyped up this match all week in my head.
     
    Let's hope Fred and McTominay up their passing game for this one.

    It only goes to extra time and pens IF we score a goal AND don't concede a goal.

    Why does another 1-1 not go into extra time? ELI5.

    why does he keep putting two keepers on the bench

    Glad we've got two keepers on the bench, better to be safe than sorry.

    I'm guessing he can't grab a random academy lad because they're not registered?
     
    Daniel James isn't playing well though.

    He puts a shift in, but his productivity is next to nothing.

    Who would you put there instead? Look at our injury list. It's clear Amad is going to be eased in and not thrown to the wolves.
     
    Chelsea does it because Mendy is not proven in a penalty shoot out situation. Willy and Kepa trains better. Not sure about your keepers.
    It’s because we don’t have enough senior players fully fit and we can’t call up unregistered youth players (who are probably in their own covid bubble anyway).
     
    We need to get a goal early in the game to cancel out their away goal advantage or it will be tense watching us try to find space behind the deep Milan defence.
     
    I'm guessing he can't grab a random academy lad because they're not registered?

    I hope it's a necessity but am not sure it is because he's been doing it in the league recently too.
    Because we don't have enough fit players?
    see above doc
    For the same reason he starts his first sub on the 85th minute.
    For fecks and giggles.
    Classic norwegian humor
    I assume it's because he's restricted in who he can have because of the covid bubbles they operate within?
    not sure about everyone who travelled but i'm assuming we have some outfield players that missed out
    Chelsea does it because Mendy is not proven in a penalty shoot out situation. Willy and Kepa trains better. Not sure about your keepers.
    Pretty sure Henderson is our best bet at saving pens so no worries there.
     
    Would've liked to see Pogba start and try and blitz them early on.

    I guess it's the conservative approach from Ole again. Hope it works.
     
    Pretty much the team we expected. At least we have a few more options off the bench now with Pogba and VDB back.

    I dont know what to expect. Just hope we can get that away goal early do not want it to be dragged out.
     
    Expected lineup.

    The back 4 is a no brainer.

    Pogba on the bench because he just got back from injury. Glad to see that he puts hist best team out there given the injuries
