UEFA Champions & Europa League Football Thread ** spoilers ** [8th - 10th Dec 2020]

Putting more defenders on doesn't mean you will defend better. It just means that you have 5 players who think that someone else is marking the attackers. It has to be coached...

 

[Shamikebab]

Great tackle by Shaw, yellow card. Sigh.

 

[adam cool dude]

Ref is bent as anything.

 

[fez]

I see bruno getting sent off before the end ..

Nah, Ole will take him off if he starts looking too close to the edge

and that should be a corner. Officials getting everything wrong at the moment

 

[Sui]

got PSG in a acca, not sure what happens here

That leg of it will most likely get voided, unless re-played within 48 hours I believe (which never happens).

 

[The Running Man]

Greenwood has had a real shocker.

 

[mid_gen]

Ref is bloody awful....is it Rudy Giuliani?

Well 2 goals down is a result with that defensive performance.

 

[Converge]

United have had a real shocker.

Corrected.

They're resuming at 10pm french time, without the official accused of racism.

Greenwood has had a real shocker.

None of them have been great but relatively he's been one of the brighter ones.

 

[dacads]

Gutted he didn’t finish his chance

usually so clinical

second half comeback hopefully..

[Converge]

Ferdinand and co should be amusing.

 

[BaZ87]

Is this certain yet? I read that they don't know if the Istanbul players will return yet.

 

[The Running Man]

None of them have been great but relatively he's been one of the brighter ones.

He had a great chance, fluffed it.

He tried to play rashford in but nearly played him into the corner flag.

Just as the half time whistle went he passed to the defender rather than rashford too.

Hes just too young and not good enough to start games like this.

 

[Ayahuasca]

They're resuming at 10pm french time, without the official accused of racism.

Surely a misunderstanding somewhere? I just can’t see why an official would throw a racial slur about. Career over unlike when a player does it.

 

[Shamikebab]

The funny thing is we're still in this. We've missed a couple of good chances and we'd have had a penalty if the officials were competent.

 

[adam cool dude]

Ole needs to exploit the fact they have an empty bench and we can have 5 subs.

I am not sure why Ole goes for the back 5. It worked when all our players were injured and we had Ashley young but it just doesn't make any sense. He does it almost as a cautious option but it just makes everything worse. I am sure if we played a back four it would have been a different situation now.

Only positive I can see is RB look knackered already and hopefully ole can exploit with 5 subs as there is still plenty of tallent on the bench.

We changed to a back 5 against Chelsea and lost horribly, nearly lost to PSG and then changed to a back 4 and beat then. Then again today it has been terrible.
