To be fair to Ole, he got that spot on in that half.
Lots of people feel this way, then he comes on, doesn’t track markers, doesn’t run, and everything turns to mud. He then puts two players clean through on goal with worldie passes. The team as a whole looks jaded and lost. Rinse, repeat.I think Lindelof looks better when he's isn't having to constantly cover for Maguire's defensive inadequacies.Absolutely solid. Compact, disciplined in defence, quick and decisive in our counter attack.
They will be better in the 2nd half, another good half needed.
Think he needs a defender with pace next to him as does Maguire. Together they look a bit suspect but with Axel alongside he doesn't need to worry about speedNicely set up with that formation . Well done lads very good first half
No, we aren’t.They have problem to brake teams who park the bus
Pogba for me. Can carry the ball & moves better:,Thought we were good value for the lead there. But I can’t imagine they’ll be that shit again in the second half, so I’m slightly disappointed we didn’t get a second which we deserved on the balance of play. With a bit more composure in the build up, there were more goals for us there. Our shaky start to the season has affected our confidence.I'm looking forward to the Telles-Maguire combination
Not bad so far. I'll certainly take it. We've looked solid enough so far and it does seems like we could hit them on the counter. More of the same second half please.Telles is a good passing option on the left there, helps to keep possession.
He can whip a corner as well!!I think we can score again, we just need to counter.
PSG for all their might, don’t have much creativity in their midfield. Long as we shut down the individual brilliance we can do this
Surprised he got the chance first game. Great corners compared to what we’re used to.That Telles boy can take a corner
If Rashford was at it we'd be cruising this
My first thought was it looked a bit dramatic but the replay showed it was a clear penalty.that's a very good away performance in 1st half.Flawless first half, and Shaw has proved me wrong so far. Solid to a man.
And they wonder why they keep bottling it when it matters. Horrible mentality to have.
Let's not throw Pogba on at half time. We need 10 outfield players ready to give 100%. VdB maybe after 10 minutes for Fred. McTominay needs to be careful to not get another card, but we need his physicality (and threat at set pieces now with a competent corner taker).
Very good setup by Ole.Worry for McT on a yellowWe're fecking great.
Masterclass of a half. Don't remember the last time I was so pleased about us in a game like this.
We're so stable, so balanced, so organized defensively, and still dangerous on the ball whenever we push forward.
Well deserved lead for me. Even before the goal when we didn't attack much we were very stable and the game was even.
De Gea is having a fantastic game and even his kicks are good today. Pretty much everyone has put a great performance.
But Bruno stands out really. Mind blowing how he's everywhere on the pitch, even backtracking and defending close to our goal in some moments. I'm sorry but this has to be said: Pogba needs to take a hard look at Bruno to realize what he's missing in football. Our midfield looks so much more stable and balanced without him, I'm sorry again.
Maybe the only one whom I think was a little bit disappointing was Telles. Not the best debut so far to be honest but hopefully he improves in second half.
Put on another 45 minutes and this match is ours.The Portuguese are our new Tellesmans - who else can we sign from Portugal?
The yellow for Neymar was delightfulTo be fair, this ref isn't taking any prisoners tonight
This formation is absolutely perfect for us in these big games away from home. Telles wing back. Shaw LCB. And martial and Rashford up top in front of Bruno. Absolutely perfect.Keep going, good half, get back out there and the next goal wins the game. Shoot on sight, get the ball near their box and just smash it. Sure Rash or Bruno will get one in and the Parisians will collapse.Wow, where to begin. Best 45 so far from us this season, across the whole park.
De Gea with some commanding saves
Defence with some strong tackles, especially Tuanzebe making Mbappe look normal-paced with that stop
Midfield covering ground very well
Strikers running at their Defence with conviction
Also liking Telles so far; he seems keen to make himself available on that left hand side, and his corners look the best I have seen in a while from us, beautifully whipped in.
Really hope we can keep this performance up and keep stifling them, will be a monumental confidence boost if we do.We are better in every aspect. Take Neymar out of that team and they are ordinary as hell.
Pogba is constantly played too deep, he's much, much better further up the pitch.There's 2 or 3 goals for us in this second half. PSG have been pathetic.Our midfield looks so much more dynamic without Pogba. While it may be lacking in the odd Hollywood pass, the work rate of Fred and McT combined with Bruno's vision is infinitely more stable.
It's not perfect, but an improvement. Also really impressed with Telles and Tuanzebe against (supposedly) quality opposition.Should Telles start taking pens? He's absolutely money from there and doesn't do the weird stutter thing
Fred & Mctomminay is a system.
After seeing that the whole of last season against the big teams - how can you possibly complain about him.
Your posts are poor as his passing.Commentators are making out like PSG are a bunch of no marks. They're a dangerous team capable of destroying defences, and we've completely stunted their play so far. We look a bit disjointed in attack, but we look solid. What a difference a bit of steel in midfield makes.Pogba to come on for McT at some point. We can't risk a red. The ref is up for it.Sack Ole!PSG will come out strong and get more desperate as the game goes on. We need to hold and be prepared to go for the kill.
Great half by Lindelof, taking over the leadership and organisational responsibilities.
McT needs to be careful, they'll try and make him get a second yellow.If Rashford and Martial can kick it up a notch we can seal this. Still always wary of that front 3 at any moment but looked comfortable enough so far. Pogba and VDB will be useful later on.PSG midfield is shite and their defence can be got at. Hope we can take further advantage of that. Their attack can cause problems though.- Status
