    Do they have beer?

    Yes they do, but many also drinking a local moonshine concoction, which from what I can make out is a derivative of potato. Its like liquid mash potato and basically an unrefined vodka with very high alcoholic content which you can smell!
    Seems to make them a bit psychotic .... lets see what happens when we score or if we lose!

    Why would he play Bailly in EL and not in an important game like this. Is it a knock or does he have to earn his place back in the team, is the question.

    I guess Jose wanted to bring Bailly back in a slower game in terms of pace and he cannot really play two games in the space of 3-4 days after being sidelined for over a month.

    Think it's the right decision. Besides, Rojo and Jones have been great in the past few weeks and deserve to stay in the starting eleven.

    This I hope, and I agree with it too! If Jones and Rojo are playing well, then they deserve to start.

    Bailly will get back in eventually as he is too good not to.

    Could be but he is much more needed in this game. I just hope Mourinho doesn't see Jones/Rojo as his first choice.

    He likely thinks these two need to build a solid partnership, rather than put Bailly back in, then he disappears in January and they have to build that understanding yet again.

    It's possible but I just think Bailly is too good to be on the bench.
     
    Form (of both sides) screams a draw but I'm afraid we won't be able to score enough goals to get anything from the game

    I don't think it's an issue really, and it's probably to be expected for the big teams in leagues with global reach to have fans in countries that don't have leagues at the level of ours.

    Well, isn't a part of supporting teams the fact that they come from different places in the world, and different citys? I feel like you lose a part of the charm of the sport if every club is just global with more fans outside the country and city than within. And there is also no point of having a home stadium in a particular city, you can just travel around and play games wherever your fans are. Lets watch "Global United" vs "Tottenham World" in the World League at Shanghai stadium.

    Im exaggerating, but yeah, you get the point. :D

    Fans that have never set foot in the city where there team plays... Is it just me that thinks football-fans at least should have some sort of a connection to the team they support? Or am i totally saying something terrible on a United-forum right now? :nervous:

    Says the Swede... from Sweden... on the forum of an English club... from England #Irony
     
    Always like playing Spurs. They let teams play ,but still see it as 1-1.
     
    TIME FOR TEAM NEWS
    This is how United will line up against Spurs today...

    Don't like the defence but the rest of the team looks good. We need more from Pogba and Herrera in attack today.
     
    11/11, probably the easiest lineup to predict so far.

    Edit: No wait, predicted Bailly instead of Jones :wenger:
     
    Is Dier playing?

    Fellaini can slightly redeem himself if he chins Dier.
     
    Pleased with that, although still don't get the darmian at LB shout from Mou.

    Whatever happens just dont let Fellaini anywhere near the pitch pls Jose!!!
     
    Spurs: Lloris (C); Walker, Alderweireld, Vertonghen, Rose; Wanyama, Dembele; Eriksen, Dele, Son; Kane
     
    I only missed Bailly. Thought he'd play.

    It's good Mourinho has kept a similar line up in the league.
     
    Decent side although I don't like Pogba as a number 10. Why have we in recent games suddenly dropped the man who has been our best player this season?
     
    That can be the only rationale for him being in the squad. If we're getting bullied bun dier and alli, send on the carthorse.
     
    Nice. Defence could've been better, but I guess Shaw is still injured and Mou doesn't like Blind's lack of pace.
    My only issue with Darmian is that he doesn't offer anything going forward on the left - he is hardly even making himself a passing option on the overlap, let alone crossing or shooting.

    Rojo deserves a start, although hopefully Bailly will get in the team soon (and damn you Africa for your untimely tournaments)

    Fellaini can go do one, shouldn't be even on the bench today or ever.
