Champions League Round of 16 (15th Feb - 16th Mar)

[Swedish_Plumber]

Sanches is the only one capable of keeping the ball for Lille

 

[Nickelodeon]

Only tuned in to watch Vlahovic for the first time. It’s becoming worth it. Great center forward play from him till now. But looking at Juve sit back and play the game on counter just draws focus on the style of the manager rather than the size of the club.

 

[GDaly95]

Enjoying watching Sanches

 

[AltiUn]

Both matches have been predictably tame so far.

 

[United in sin]

Havertz or Lukaku?

Havertz

 

[Walters_19_MuFc]

Enjoying watching Sanches

Me too! Does he remind you of Anderson in terms of playing style or is it a lazy comparison?

 

[V.O.]

Chelsea Lille is so riveting the commentators have started discussing the size of the lettering on the back of the Lille players' shirts.

 

[Walters_19_MuFc]

Havertz

People forget Havertz was 75M and lets be honest, he hasn't been up to much. At least Lukaku has proven himself at other clubs in the EPL.

 

[AltiUn]

Allegri vs Emery proving to be the dullest match up in CL history, well, until we play tomorrow that is.

He's got a knack for scoring when it's important, but he's not someone I particularly envy them having. For £75m he's not as productive as you'd expect.

 

[big rons sovereign]

Chelsea are really boring.

 

[P-Ro]

Played well for the first 10 minutes but since then we've been sloppy and are not dealing with their high press particularly well. It's a good thing they are wasteful in the final third.

 

[PeteReDevil]

Me too! Does he remind you of Anderson in terms of playing style or is it a lazy comparison?

There's a case for this. The weight of his passes, how he holds of the opposition and how he runs with the ball is like watching Anderson

 

[Deery]

Who scored for Chelsea missed it, not impressed either way with the match since.

Was thinking that earlier, just not quite as tubby.

I think the score might have played into that too, but generally they're a pragmatic side.

Matthijs de Ligt is perfect

Absolutely flawless. Great on the ball too.

 

[DomesticTadpole]

Havertz.

 

[The Dane]

Looking at the Chelsea line up I was wondering if United have ever started a game without at least one British player on the pitch.

 

[United in sin]

I agree.

Looking at the Chelsea line up I was wondering if United have ever started a game without at least one British player on the pitch.

If I recall correctly we first fielded a starting 11 without a single English player in 2008/09. Not the same thing but that's all I can think of

Juventus have many absentees. Allegri did this on Friday home match vs Torino andthey got punished for it.

Chelsea started well but that didn’t last.

Both games have been crap to be fair

CL final? Obviously massive but what else?

 

[Ayoba]

I just don't know what it is about Chelsea but I've never enjoyed watching them play - can't quite put my finger on it. Even the team under mourinho that had Joe cole, drogba, robben etc.

I liked Conte's 16/17 side. It was a fresh sight seeing a 3 CB formation get all those wins in a row and they played good footy.

 

[kouroux]

Lukaku benched for such a game... It tells a lot of things

 

[Walters_19_MuFc]

What if he starts the final on Sunday?

 

[DomesticTadpole]

Is that two injuries for Chelsea?

 

[Ayoba]

What if he starts the final on Sunday?

Then put your mortgage on Liverpool winning it

 

[DavidDeSchmikes]

Is that two injuries for Chelsea?

Ziyech and Kovacic.

 

[DomesticTadpole]

Chelsea two ahead.

 

[Walters_19_MuFc]

2-0. Game over!

Kante is still a phenomenal player. Been Chelsea's best player tonight, in my opinion.

 

[Rightnr]

Damn, Chelsea are not playing fair. Lukaku is on the bench

 

[MayosNoun]

Great goal that.

Really wanted to watch Ajax and we end up with the two dullest games at the same time and United and Ajax together.

 

[TheMagicFoolBus]

Damn, Chelsea are not playing fair. Lukaku is on the bench

It's offset by Alonso being on the pitch to be fair

 

[Zaphod2319]

Need one more to put this to bed going to Lille

 

[Deery]

Lionel Kante..

 

[Walters_19_MuFc]

1-1

Superb assist by Capoue!

 

[United in sin]

Lille are 11th in Ligue 1. This tie was all but won before kick off. If Lukaku doesn't start in Saturday questions can be asked

 

[KirkDuyt]

Haha Rabio caught napping there, game on.

 

[United in sin]

Great assist for that Villarreal goal
