UEFA Champions & Europa League Football Thread ** spoilers ** [20th-22nd Oct 2020]

[Purdy]

AWB tackles are fun to watch

 

[The Running Man]

All Rashford had to do there was pass it back to Bruno

He needs subbing tbh he has all the tools but clearly more interested in polishing his mbe than his football.

 

[Converge]

Looks like Herrera has been shot.

He was fantastic against Newcastle.

He was fantastic against Newcastle.

I missed that one, I couldn't stomach the £15 on top of sky sports.

 

[Converge]

Oh no, Pogba’s coming on. 3-1 PSG, I’m calling it now.

 

[Calpol]

Game is too open now for my liking. Pogba not really going to help that. Good debut from Telles. Impressed by his crossing.

Also it was an away match. It’s not so bad when it’s at home and you’re giving your own club your money, but actually stumping up £15 for the benefit of Mike Ashley is far too bitter a pill to swallow.

Change of formation?

So it turns out if we stick 5 defenders on the pitch who all work for the team we are OK defensively.

Edit: What is Ole doing? This isn't the 87th minute and the game isn't already lost.

Looks like we are playing 433 now.

I think playing 5 at the back was being too respectful to PSG. We made the same mistake against Chelsea in the FA cup.

I love how few ***** most of the PSG side gives about defending.

Which makes it even stranger when you consider they've offered nothing going forward either.

 

[Converge]

Not sure why VDB isn’t getting a look in ahead of Pogba.
He hasn’t started a game yet but always looks to be a positive impact and balances the team nicely.

De Gea has made a good number of very good saves so thats harsh.

 

[adam cool dude]

Mbappe is like a poor man's Michael Owen.

 

[dacads]

Tuanzebe what a player

 

[Pigeon_Killer]

Mbappe is like a poor man's Michael Owen.

We'll find out how well he compares to Owen when he joins us in the summer.

 

[Robbo]

Liking Tuanzebe, powerful and fast. Better than Maguire

Save him for the 90th minute.
