UEFA Champions League/Europa League ** Spoilers ** [21/22/23 November 2017]

He's crap, Henderson that is, he's West Ham's Noble, or Carrick for Utd, he has frequent terrible games but a few performances as a marauding midfielder who scores a screamer very rarely and everything else is forgotten. Utd look a 100% different side without Carrick or Fellaini in midfield, a 'harmless' midfielder is still dead space that makes everything harder for everyone else.

Moreno... lol. Though whoever called it a dive, lol, he got his ankle stamped on, just because someone doesn't go right through someone's leg and take it out under him, there isn't any human alive who gets their ankle trodden on like that and doesn't go down with the next stride, dive... wow.

It's a natural thing, you get your ankle trod on, his next stride and planting his right foot is normal. YOu get pain in your left ankle and you don't want to put weight down on it so your instinct is to lift that foot and fall to protect the ankle.

I didn't say he played well and I've said before, he's not suited to that position when we're on the back foot but Moreno literally gifted them 2 goals. Had Moreno had half a braincell he doesn't run out of position to begin with, then charge back and give away a stupid free-kick, then allow somebody to get across him at the near post and then when you let Sevilla back into the game and get the crowd up you have to be even more careful, you don't then **** up your control from an easy pass on the edge of your area and then stick a leg out and give away a penalty.

Moreno was moronic, he often is, but his errors will always look worse because he's in a back four, a poor one as well. Henderson is the captain of the team, had a 56% pass completion rate, didn't win a single tackle and didn't attempt an aerial duel. They bypassed him every single time they went forward, he offered nothing on that game last night and zero protection to the back four. When he did have the ball he hoofed it long, inviting more pressure on.

I always stick up for Henderson as i think he gets a lot of unwarranted stick but that last night was a shambles. Its all opinions but for me he's just as culpable as Moreno.
 
Pretty poor but god knows how there were 3 minutes of extra time. They wasted 3 for their celebration alone.
 
Lol Mourinho really does offer nothing more than LvG other than being even more defensive. It’s terrible

Thankfully we only have to put up with this dross for another year at most before he buggers off elsewhere

I know it’s cliche to say, but I’d rather play like Liverpool or Spurs and win nothing than play terrible and boring football and scrape over the line for the smaller trophies.
 
Jose won't win a bean sending his team out the way he does. Terrible shame as they're so talented but can't make the most of their talent. Someone like Tuchel would be better for United than Jose imo.
