The Emirates FA Cup 5th Round Proper ** Spoilers ** [9th - 11th Feb 2021]

Feels like you barely get to breath before the next game at the moment. How is it we have the evening game on Saturday then another one on Tuesday?!?
 
Wonder when we will need to stick Fernandes on to try and win/save the game.
 
Typical dominating start for United but passing in final third letting us down as usual. Fred and Matic will struggle tonight and already being quite careless in possession.
 
To be fair, TV money is what makes the PL so rich so up to a point they should get a lot of say.

Yeah I know that, hence the rant klopp had at BT for their lunchtime kick off which followed a midweek match in Europe and I think it was milner got injured because there wasn't time in-between.
 
Please, just someone make a run between the lines. Have 4 players just standing backs to goal with a defender on top of them.
 
Oof, that was nasty on Martial. Poor lads a massive pansy and the one time hes remotely brave he gets a headbut.
 
God, this is dull.

This is why I laugh at people claiming the Premier League as the best league. You have about 6-7 teams that actually want to play football and the rest who just sit ten men behind the ball trying to get something.

It is why Leeds are a refreshing change to that mould but teams like that come once every decade.
 
I don't understand how Diop doesn't get a yellow for the challenge on Martial. If you mistime a tackle that badly it's a yellow, why are you allowed to just clatter someone with your head with no punishment?

Same for Noble at the end, that is a clear yellow.
 
Wham awful - no attempt to get in the game. I agree with Adam Cool Dude's assessment on the quality of team in the EPL. It's competitive but it ain't pretty - you'd hope that the Cup might be different but nope.
Van de Beek really struggling to get in the game. He's tidy but needs to drop back a bit to pick up the ball from Fred or Matic. Hoping he can improve as the game opens up. Prob is Ole will sub him if its 0-0 at 60 mins.
