Essential The Official Football (Soccer) Thread - RIP Diogo Jota

i don't want to say i told ya BUT ....

Breh, you didn't tell me nada. I watched the match. Sevilla didn't outplay us for shyt. Full stop.

2 flukey OGs is it bro. Malacia was caught in two minds on the first OG and the 2nd was just some freak FIFA goal.

United threw that match away plain and simple. Sloppy passing in the 2nd half, and not being more clinical in front of goal. More ruthlessness and this tie is done at 4-0 in the first half.

Bruno gets a bullshyt yellow card and is suspended for the second leg.
Lamela could've been sent off.
Varane injured at half time.
Martinez 100% injured for months.
Bottle a 2 goal lead due to 2 own goals.
Gave ourselves a disadvantage for the second leg against Europa League specialists, Sevilla.

Sevilla will show no mercy in the 2nd leg, I can tell you that.

We're gonna be going there with Maguire, Lindelof and Malacia in the back 4.

Probably one of McTominay or Fred in the midfield. Won't suprise me if Martial isn't fit enough to travel too, so probably Weghorst up top.

It's looking bleak.

Ass all over the pitch with small isolated pockets of quality.

This second half performance has really been a downer for me

This is how I was feeling at 2-0 thinking it would be a bad result

Our season is over. Brighton will slap us up in a few weeks and I won't be surprised if Sevilla finish the job next week.

Bro what? What no mercy? These men are toothless in attack and up to a few weeks ago were in a relegation dog fight in La Liga.

At best, they knick a smash-and-grab in the Sanchez Pizjuan. All this doom and gloom sounds like RedCafe.

 

[TobiOT]

At 2-0 there was a chance for Weghorst to pass to Elanga and he gave it to Malacia who has no attacking input in him.

Man y'all talking crazy.

Man y'all talking crazy.

0 cojones, it's sad to see.

Will be tough in Seville next week, not because they're good, they're trash, but just with the injuries(and Bruno suspension).

Brighton 3 days later isn't ideal either.

We have enough to win both though assuming Eriksen can start after the weekend. Him and (a rested)Casemiro in midfield, Martial being back and an increasingly in-form Antony should carry us through.

the mistakes/goals game due to their attacking pressure.

we couldn't stop their waves of attack because we lack control in the middle of the park. we can't hold on to possession and take the sting out of their game.

as I said would happen.

compare and contrast with arsenal, city or (heck) even brighton / newcastle ..

anyway I'm glad you didn't miss it.

Man y'all talking crazy.

We've seen this movie so many times man.

There are no miracle endings for Manchester United.

We struggle to convincingly control games even with a near full strenght side. Only one consistent source of goals in Rashford who is now injured.

Guys like Maguire, Lindelof, Weghorst, Malacia, Fred, McTominay will be getting extended runs in the crunch games due to a combination of injury and suspensions. It's gonna be a hard watch until the end of the season.

Just watch, Martinez won't come back the same

Just watch, Martinez won't come back the same

Breh it looks like an Achilles injury it’s hard to come back the same

They said they were in a title race in February

Achilles injury has already been ruled out. From what I'm seeing initial prognosis is a broken bone in his foot.
