I don't think you've seen much of Brighton lately.
Any more games from Malacia like that and Dalot or Fred will be playing left back.
Maguire gets some insane stick on here. He’s done well last couple of appearances and is still part of Englands defence. Not ideal as Varane and Martinez are better, but please don’t underestimate him. He can still do a job for us and we need to get behind him.
Jones hasn’t even got a locker room anymore, ETH has phased him out completely.
I really hope your trolling at this point
Who's heads exactly?
Not getting top 4 when Chelsea and Liverpool have completely imploded isn't good enough
Alright Ballotelli, calm down!
And to think there were people questioning me in the EtH thread about whether there's people that would see EtH go, well here we are @Leftback99 @Zlatan 7
There isn't a single Europa League team better than Brighton, not even close... Ignore the name of Juventus, they are not all that good and we're ridiculously fortunate to beat Sporting yesterday even. Hell, look at the top 11 in the prem, and at best, the other Europa League teams would be Fulham/Brentford/Villa level (and current Chelsea, but that's like our situation with rangnick more than their real level). They are well behind the rest, which yes includes Brighton who performance wise are very arguably one of the 4 best performing sides in the league. Battered Spurs away but ref fecked them out of a win which would have had them right in that 5th position basically.
So many butt-fecking quitters in here! Some of you need to give your heads a wobble!
We are Manchester United, not Martinez FC.One man doesn’t make a team, we have a quality manager and a talented squad. We will make top 4 and win one more trophy. Licha may even be back to contribute to a final (severity of injury depending). We go for it!!
That because they haven’t played together/much. Licha and Varane are the preferred players. Erik even puts Shaw at CB over them. He really likes a left footed player in the LCB position.
Sporting knocked out Arsenal - the Premier League leaders! I'm not at all convinced Brighton would have done all that much better against them than Juventus... though admittedly Brighton aren't burdened by Allegri's cowardice.
Good lord, it’s Brighton. They are having a decent season sure, but they arent prime Madrid. And we are not Accrington Stanley.
Nah, the premier league throughout the league is at a much higher level than anywhere else. There are a few elite teams elsewhere, but nowhere has the quality throughout the rest like the prem. And Brighton especially have been brilliant all season. Hell, look at West Ham. They're a mid table team who are relegation fodder this season, yet they are favourites for the Conference League.
No but they do play in a way we particularly struggle against, especially without Martinez who is one of the few who is comfortable being pressed. They'll likely control the game and we'll need to turn it into an open, end to end game and let the superior attackers win it for us.
That seems a bit over the top. I think we'll be okay in the premier league, easily finishing top 4 and maybe top 3. I think it's a lot less likely we'll win the FA cup and Europa League but we still have a chance at both.
I'd stick Wout there. There's no way he'd have scored the OG that Maguire did.
Weghorst: hold my beer….
We are not unaccustomed to playing on the counter if we need to, and as you rightly assert we do have superior attackers. Our midfield is stronger than theirs too.
Again.
