That was 90 minutes that decided whether United had a disastrous season or a bloody good one.
They had a good one!!
I hate to say it, but I thought Fellaini had a really good game.
Very pleased for Romero too.
I'll sleep well tonight.

I love Fellaini, top player in EPL in my opinion.

I told my grandson to watch just him and his movement for 10 minutes of a game. you should try it.
The amount of ground he covers in his 'lazy' stride is astonishing.

Odd game last night, Ajax passed it around ok but were toothless final third, Utd gave maximum effort and bullied Ajax out of it, were worthy winners. So many missed passes and passes to marked players though, Pogba in particular has to do better next season. Rashford needs to learn to get up quick and play the whistle not just lie there hoping for a free kick or pen.
Well done Utd though, quite an easy win in the end in difficult circumstances I thought.

I hear that Chelsea have cancelled their open top bus celebration, which is totally understandable, but I bet John Terry will get someone to drive him through London in a convertible car whilst wearing his Chelsea kit :eek:.

How does it feel having a scouser as your captain?:rofl:

:)

Honestly, it does not bother me one bit. Not in the slightest. He's been a fantastic servant to the club for over 10 years and was an integral part of our success in the late naughties. He's quite the decorated player in terms of what he has won with the club and whilst not my favourite player the last couple of years, you can't knock him and his record.

I saw the photo below on an "On this day..." post today. Did anyone else realise that Rory McGrath captained Bayern Munich in the 1982 European Cup Final against Aston Villa.......

Poor refereeing and poor commentating. Ramsey turned and briefly made for the ball, clearly meaning that Courtois now had to try to close down two players. That means Ramsey is interfering. Offside. Shouldn't have been a goal.

It's hand ball, the balls gonie forward off his arm, that's the poor decision.

Everyone is saying it wasn't offside, but I was of the impression that if you went for ball, which Ramsey did but then stopped, he's then made himself active, it's a stupid rule but it's a rule and I think he's too close to the ball and ran towards it for him not to be active!

Other than that we're pretty crap anyway.
