Young Boys 2:1 Manchester United

El Zoido · Sep 14, 2021

AWB ruins both Sancho and VDB in the same game.

RedDevil@84 · Sep 14, 2021

So Varane, Maguire, Lindelo, Shaw, Dalot. 5 at the back? Ole scared he will lose against these lot?

Martial'sEmergingSmile · Sep 14, 2021

Think that's a sensible call. Allows Dalot and Shaw to give us some width.

Donny just cannot catch a break. Off for Varane when Pogba's been barely involved and we still have Fred on the pitch.

He’s unlucky but at the same time he’s not done a fat lot. With Pogba on the pitch we’ve always got the ability to transition from defence to attack in the blink of an eye.

Still ill · Sep 14, 2021

Poor old Donny. He's cursed.

Red Shorts · Sep 14, 2021

Here we go for an ultra counter attack half!

Number32 · Sep 14, 2021

Rafael, Nani, and now AWB? Why we always choke like this in a game that we should comfartably win in Champions League.

charlenefan · Sep 14, 2021

Ole listened to me, 5 at the back, would have kept Donny on for confidence but whatevs

prateik · Sep 14, 2021

Poor vdb

Thought that looked a decent call, but probably makes more sense what we've done, as we can play some sort of diamond.

He’s off

Dazzmondo · Sep 14, 2021

Varane replaces VDB. A bit harsh tbh, prob should have been Pogba to gives us more def stability. Probably suggests Ole isn't content with just 1 goal though which is a good thing imo. I have no confidence in our ability to hold out for a 1-0 win.

elmo · Sep 14, 2021

Gutted for VDB.

First Man United player to be sent off in the Champions league since Nani v Real Madrid which was Ferguson last CL game as United manager.

Does anyone really think City or Chelsea would struggle here? Or even Liverpool?

Because that's supposedly our level. A team with our resources should be able to still control a match against the weakest CL group team.

But, we don't really look like we have our collective sh*t together. It's all down to that midfield, and coaching it to be functional.

Get Ronnie off for someone with energy, pull Pogba back and keep the ball. Be dull, stodgy and in control.

That is the bottom line. If Pep had these same players in City they would be cruising. I remember when Bayern went down to ten men against City and still controlled the game.

Tincanalley · Sep 14, 2021

varane defensive mid. Hm

Nou_Camp99 · Sep 14, 2021

Don't blame Ole Donny. Blame that useless fullback stealing a living.

devilish · Sep 14, 2021

Poor donny

Unless Lindelöf is injured, I am not sure what that says about him.

About Ole? Because Lindelof is still in apparently

RonaldoVII · Sep 14, 2021

Had to be done yet some will be fuming :lol:

Tony247 · Sep 14, 2021

Varane on. Now I can relax.

mu4c_20le · Sep 14, 2021

Footballing gods just do not like Donny

, he just cant catch a break.

There's going to be 5.45 kick offs for some games so there's more to put on tv

TMDaines said:
Presume they want an earlier game each night now, but why they didn’t pick Dynamo’s, I don’t know.

We are also the earlier kick-off away at Villarreal.

Cheers guys, tv time was going to be my second guess.

VidaRed said:
Good thing i check in 5 mins ago otherwise i would have sat down after the final whistle.

Same! I only came in here to look at the line up.

saivet · Sep 14, 2021

VDB didn't do much (right or wrong). Situation means a change is needed which is unfortunate for him.

To think that was a clear red isn't an opinion, it's just obvious.

Given how you acted in the Sancho transfer thread, your response does not surprise me.

Alvaro Maestre · Sep 14, 2021

Lindelof CDM for the win!

criticalanalysis · Sep 14, 2021

VDB FFS

Fecking hell you have to feel for him. He was having a decent game as well.

SIGH.

tomaldinho1 · Sep 14, 2021

Think it's a bad move to take off a CM, back 5 needs ball retention centrally.

What does the caf think of the first half from van de beek?

did his job fine. no mistakes, a few tackles and some nice passes. solid.

Tiber · Sep 14, 2021

Feel bad for Sancho and VDB

SirAnderson · Sep 14, 2021

AWB spoiling it for everyone, poor Donny and Sancho.

Tuchel could be down to 9 men and still set up his team in a way that they wouldnt concede. Fantastic manager.

Couldn't do it at psg with 11 players. But agree he has improved dramatically since moving to Chelsea, albeit over only half a season or whatever

TMDaines · Sep 14, 2021

Looks like a 3-3-2-1, i.e wing-backs and a diamond.

Beans · Sep 14, 2021

Weird to see Ronnie in short sleeves

Dalot and Shaw can play WB where we will have 3 at the back.

Flytan · Sep 14, 2021

This game will create drama. Between subbing off Sancho in 20 minutes or DVB after only a half, there are gonna be unhappy players. Thanks AWB.

BeltUp · Sep 14, 2021

Unlucky VDB and Sancho. I also feel it was a harsh on AWB.

Pogba unlocks the counter attack. His range will be key as they were already camped in our half at the end of the first half.
