they will moan at anything, and many would prefer if we dropped points just so that they can rant on Twitter and an Internet forum!

Or... so the club can hire a new manager to get this rebuild roadshow moving again.

Irrelevant. Its all simple. Robbie has pointed it out a few times. Its why we can't have matic or mct next to him. We need someone to play forward and through the lines from midfield beside him and dvb has been doing that very well

FFS I totally forgot about Pogba! Didn't miss him at all!

I forgot about him ever since Bruno played his first game for us to be honest, and I am french !

Definitely not a PSG win.

It actually doesn't really matter that much, if you think about it. Even if PSG lose tonight they can knock us out if we lose to both them and Leipzig. If we get a point in either game, we're basically through.

Can't believe I'm coming onto to here to find moaning and nitpicking about individual moments while we're up 3-0 at half time.

Great game from us so far. I'm very pleased. My only complaint is it would have been nice to see Fernandes rewarded with a hat trick. But he's still got more than enough time to do it. I certainly won't complain about It Ashford getting on the scoresheet either. The first goal was a great strike. Pure rocket.

I've been very impressed with some of the play between the midfield/forwards. Particularly Bruno, Van De Beek and Cavani. Some liquid football at times. Especially that first 25 mins or so.

Yeah, add Rashford to that too and I hate to say it but.. Martial is looking very out of place in this game. Seems there is a high level of footballing intellect between those 4- so far Tony seems to come up a step short. Hope he does better in the second.

Surely a draw in the PSG game would be ideal?

Whatever the result in Paris, we'll still need at least a draw from our final two games to guarantee qualification.

Nice to see Tuanzebe getting some minutes

I have been on this forum since 2008 (Initially as a lurker), but this place has really honestly just become horrible for a united supporter. I want my community back, and no, it doesn't need the god damn team to be winning to have that back.

Interesting to see how a Tuanzebe Maguire partnership works.

If we continue with Martial, Rashford and Greenwood on the wings, then I'd much prefer us splash out on Haaland.

Martial Haaland Rashford

Topic for another day but nah wing play is crucial and Mason will be a top CF.
Sell Martial/Pogba, buy Grealish or Sancho.

Offside · Nov 24, 2020

Reminded me of CL group games in Fergie’s later days where we’re having no problem going forward but are open as feck. I remember one against Basel where they scored 3 times in about 5 minutes. No repeat here please let’s get the 4th early.

the problem with him is he gives the ball away in dangerous areas

presumably a draw as it means a point is lost between the two teams? Rather than one winning.

more importantly I suspect will be to get some good goal difference this evening.

Doesn’t matter much, head to head is the primary tiebreaker, so it is extremely unlikely to come down to goal difference.

He retreated to cover the space and made a fantastic block after a fantastic decision.

Why the feck would he allow himself to be dragged all the way out to close down leaving the middle wide open for a guaranteed goal.

It’s always amusing people talking shit about a professional players defensive positioning when they haven’t a fecking clue them self.

Garbage. Telles was covering. Maguire cannot just leave a player running in on goal...and really the Turks should have scored from it. The fact they didn't was by luck rather than design.

Superunknown · Nov 24, 2020

Ranchero said:
I would like to see him scoring.

Same. He's making the right movements but the ball just doesn't seem to be getting to him or falling at his feet. I think he'll get one in this game, late on.

Ranchero said:
Not sure that is the maths yet. Ten points may not be enough.

PSG have 3 points now. If they draw against us, their maximum amount would be 10 (provided they win tonight). We'd have at least 10 in that case and our head-to-head would be better.

A draw against Leipzig might not be enough on its own, depending on how tonight goes. A draw against PSG definitely is.

A draw would be ideal. We would be on nine points and PSG and Leipzig would be on four.

Id love if Leipzig were deducted 3 points for drawing against PSG

head to head before GD? missed that, although it’s been a little while since watching United on a Tuesday in Europe!

Telles was nowhere even near covering. He didn’t leave anyone. What Maguire cannot do is completely abandon his position. Thankfully he didn’t and made a great block. Instead of listening to your terrible advice.

Your posts and defensive knowledge are indeed garbage.

At least I have eyesight! Either that or you are talking about a totally different incident... because if you actually look Telles was covering in the incident I am talking about.

Tony247 · Nov 24, 2020

Cavani so close. Should have taken the shot earlier

Footy van de Geek · Nov 24, 2020

Ole clearly doesn't trust our other CBs.

He plays Maguire in nearly every game. Looks like his back is fecked.

What difference does it make if it's 12pts - 12pts - 9pts...... which is highly likely. Losing a few weeks ago could be deadly. This would be assured qualification otherwise.

bosnian_red · Nov 24, 2020

Over complicated that Cavani. Our forwards don't like taking the chances that Bruno gifts them apparently.

If Leipzig win, we win and we lose 0-1 to PSG they would then we unable to catch us so we could lose both and still go through.

Really disappointed we're not persisting with the Telles volley

Cavani back to his wasteful PSG days?

Footy van de Geek · Nov 24, 2020

Good save. Tbf to them, they've had a decent go at us.
