GWT: Champions League Round 2 and 3

[les Habs]

His national team performances have ascended at the same time as his club performances and Fernando Santos is no Klopp.

Congratulations to him. Not sure why you quoted me to post that.

Best player for Inter: Barella. Gets subbed for Gagliardini. Real scores. Vidal, who was HORRIBLE played 88 minutes, gets subbed for... Nainggolan, who's the second worst midfielder on the team. Conte is the sole responsible for this mess, f***ing sack of shit.

Didn't I say for Inter to truly become winners they need to find a new manager? Wasn't it you who said what I wrote wasn't fair? The only thing world class about Conte is are his excuses.

Having Vidal and Nainggolan on the field while Eriksen is available and rots on the bench should be a firable offence. Maybe he should shave and style his hair into a mohawk to make Conte fall in love with him.

What surprise me the most with Jota, it's his ability to always bring the ball forward with both feet. He is very direct and likes to get into space. Most other LFC players like Mane/Salah like to slow down a bit and then accelerate to use their pace and shiftiness. Not Jota, he hits the space and try to create chances it fits perfectly with Klopp football.
As for Firmino, it seems more obvious that his best role is as Attacking Midfield. He does not like to get into space, he rather get the ball in midfield and pass it around.

Firmino plays best in a Thomas Müller type pivot, high-end utility role. Works hard, plays clever passes, moves intelligently.

I wonder if you're mistaking me for someone else. I despise Conte to the bone, but at least Inter was playing well last year (except his love for Gagliardini and his late subs); this year his managing (pushing Godin out, trying to sell Skriniar) and his choices were HORRIBLE all around to say the least.
As for the rest, by the looks of your nickname, ignore is the preferred way.

 

[Jussi]

Henderson, Tuanzebe and DvB starting for United.

I was possibly mistaken there are a few Inter fans here. I apologize if it wasn't you. Even as a Juve fan I despised him too when he was managing here. I can't say anything about his playing days because I was too young.

We can't have discussions because I am Juve fan? Just because I hate Inter doesn't mean I don't want Italian teams to succeed. On the contrary, I want Italian teams like Inter, Milan, Napoli(my hometown team), etc... to succeed in Europe because it helps the league and the country.

Now Henderson understands why De Gea is yelling at the defense so often.

 

[kingsboy11]

We're getting tossed around by Demba Ba.


Demba Ba

**** If only United had like 90 more minutes of pre-season football under their belt, that goal would have never happened

No one's saying it effects United anymore... Early season, it was clear.

 

[Peen]

demba ba baby

 

[S E P H]

Ba had to be one of the most underrated players I've watch in my time for the EPL.

 

[hatterson]

That was a dumb foul by Matic.

 

[hatterson]

The announcer is really going at Maguire for that despite him being basically the least at fault for that goal

 

[Blender]

Crazy result so far with IBFK up 2-0.

 

[robertmac43]

I find this all too funny at the moment.

 

[Jussi]

Who played that "buddy pass" to Mata? Basically set up the goal.

Martial scores.

 

[Juve]

I switched from Lazio to ManU to see the score and boom, Martial scores.

 

[hatterson]

Hey Tony gets one back. Nice play by Shaw out wide and, as usual, if you leave a striker totally unmarked at the top of the 6, you're gonna have a bad time.

That was Bruno.

 

[Gecklund]

As long as they don’t lose I’m happy. 7 points from 3 games is pretty fantastic for this team in this group.

A win here pretty much means they can cruise the group (at least to second if not first).

A draw would mean they'd likely need a win in the home version of this fixture or to get a result out of one of the other two games.

Don’t get me wrong I’d much rather a win but I wasn’t even expecting to get out of this group.

 

[hatterson]

Half time announcers seeming to blame AWB for the goal which seems really misplaced given it was Matic who left Ba in roughly 48 yards of space.

Second goal was a poor pass by VdB, which put Bruno in a poor spot, he responded with another poor pass which put Mata in a tough spot, and Mata responded with a poor touch that led to the break and the midfield didn't track back remotely hard enough.
