Manchester United 1:1 Liverpool

BigWillprunier · Mar 17, 2016

So after last week's ineffective display he decides to go with the same central midfield again. Makes sense!
If we go out we go out but please for the love of God can the players show a bit of heart and fight whilst doing so.

English clubs got a 5 year ban from europe after it, from 85 to 90 i think

Yeah, I read that too and Liverpool got an extra year added on to that. Sounded like a horrific incident.

Januzaj isn't eligible.

What's going on with Herrera? Sitting next to van Gaal during the press conference and now he's injured or not selected?

Picked up a strain in training.

dwd · Mar 17, 2016

That's a shite team. We have no chance.

"Fellaini is the best player on the pitch"

parisite · Mar 17, 2016

Ah well we'll just have to see how it turns out.

Boycott · Mar 17, 2016

please play like this

Annihilate Now! · Mar 17, 2016

Is that the slowest midfield three in human history?

Summit · Mar 17, 2016

Is it true we have only won 18% of our games this season when Fellaini starts? :lol:

Just seen on twatter

Win % with Schneiderlin : 86%
Win % with Fellaini : 18%

Adzzz · Mar 17, 2016

Carrick and Fellaini...

How can a manager just learn absolutely nothing from the first leg?

Liverpool are mobile, energetic, they press, they work hard, they have runners all over the pitch. Yeah, so play the slowest midfield 3 combination we possibly can. Grim.

Exactly, it's ridiculous. I was fearful of this game but now I'm proper shitting it, cheers Van Gaal.

Play Antonio Valencia in midfield over Fellani.

newgiz · Mar 17, 2016

Pathetic team selection again from LvG.

Yup. Really shite.

3KDré · Mar 17, 2016

Oh for feck's sake. Why does this idiot insist on playing two of our shittest midfielders in midfield? Herrera and Schneiderlin played well in some of the best football of our season, so he decides to fecking drop them?!

shabadu84 · Mar 17, 2016

On the plus side, if we started a better team, it would have only raised our hopes. Good on LVG to keep expectations in check

Ole's_toe_poke · Mar 17, 2016

We got done by their pressing and energy. So obviously Van Gaal picks the two most immobile midfielders in our squad.

What a loon.

Winrar · Mar 17, 2016

if we go through with that lineup it'll be an absolute miracle.

congratulations liverpool... ugh

Januzaj and Pereira are done under LVG ?

how is it that someone always forgets that Januzaj is unavailable for this competition.

Jazz · Mar 17, 2016

Bloody hell we need to win by 3 clear goals and we got Carrick and Felli in midfield. Our coaches cannot be serious.

Anyway, maybe they'll prove me wrong?

Leftback99 · Mar 17, 2016

Tough game where winning the midfield 'battle' will be key = Schneiderlin on the bench.

Schneiderlin has been fairly poor for us but the logic of the games he starts/doesn't start is baffling.

ShakeUnBake · Mar 17, 2016

So who's going to score for us early?

PlayerOne · Mar 17, 2016

This is gonna be fun, I'm ready for all the moaning. It's almost like LvG wants to prove to the world that they know nothing and he's a genius.

How can a highly decorated manager like LVG not see this and most of us here see it immediately??

Devil may care · Mar 17, 2016

Blind/Carrick/Fellaini/Mata.....That has to be the slowest, least athletic spine any top team has ever fielded.

Attila · Mar 17, 2016

is there no build up on BT?

Herrera has a knock, but I know what you mean. I think he doesn't actually care anymore which side he puts out or what the result is.

Or maybe he's fed up and wants the sack like NOW

Witchking · Mar 17, 2016

All hopes gone. Fellaini and Carrick start.

kenny19 · Mar 17, 2016

It's not just carrick and fellaini that make the midfield bad but when you throw in limited mata you just know the manager is a troll.

Parry Gallister · Mar 17, 2016

Why such an immobile midfield two against a fast team? May as well not bother with midfield.

Well, I really hope that he comes out as a genius tonight and that we win.

Mind you if I'd have had a tenner for every time that's been pôsted on this forum I'd be watching this game from the Bahamas ...

Or maybe the ground?

An Irish Red · Mar 17, 2016

The worst thing is that only two players (Shaw and Rooney) would clearly get into this team if fit. This is close to Van Gaals favourite team right here.

Grim.

pauldyson1uk · Mar 17, 2016

Why are we all moaning about Side Show Bob starting , it is pretty clear that if he is fit then he is the first name on LVG team sheet , god know why but thats the way it looks.
