The Footie Thread

[Foxholer]

Diop confirmed as injured for several weeks

Semi final gets tougher

First we lost ogbonna for most of season (imo our best defender)
Then zouma (monster on and off the pitch it seems)
Now diop our back up is out

Dawson can't do it alone

Rice can play there but we would miss him in midfield

Johnson from the full back to CB?

Soucek to CB?

Or one of the youth team

Going to be interesting

Been something of an Achilles Heel for a while. No 'easy' games (well, perhaps 1?) in the next month either!
Change the formation to 3 at the back? Rice is too important where he is imo.
I may be being a bit negative, but I can imagine nil points and a Europe disappointment being the result! I hope I'm wrong!

Not feeling good about tonight's game.
Our engine room contains Pogba and Matic, the laziest player in the league alongside the slowest.
Add to that the fact that we have no recognised No.9 available ................ what could possibly go wrong?
I'm going 4-0.

 

[fundy]

certainly one odd looking united side, phil jones back, 2 right backs with telles on the bench and elanga and rashford up top

almost looks as bad as arsenals XI at the weekend

 

[Slime]

Oh, I forgot to mention, we also have the legend that is Phil Jones making his 4th start in 3 years!
What odds him getting a 92nd minute winner ........................... with the ball coming off his face!

Stand by for a right royal battering……

Dishes washed and I'm now settling down with a large Magnum Classic.
Probably the last thing I'll enjoy tonight.

WHAT?
You think you're only going to win by one goal!

Mate, the presenters and pundits all build this up to be a massive rivalry. The sad reality is that it isn’t any more. United’s rivals these days are the likes of West Ham, Wolves and Brighton. We’re light years behind Liverpool.

Well, that didn't take long!

[Billysboots]

Game over.

Game over.

Huge respect to Liverpool fans. Huge.

Nice touch at Anfield, very nice.

A bit of class there from both sets of fans

I know we have 2 right backs on the pitch, but I didn't realise they were both playing in that position. I assume that is the case, as not a soul at left back for that goal.
