GWT: CL Match Day 6

[Jussi]

Show everyone how great he is in a basically meaningless game. Unless Young Boys throw out a shocker and get a draw or win, what United do doesn't matter.

That was Mourinho's comment.

“Against Valencia, he is going to start,” said Mourinho. “Against Valencia, he is going to have a fantastic football game to play and to show everybody how good he is.”

“He has to play with the same mentality as the team is playing. Paul can be a fantastic player. He has the potential to be a fantastic player.”

That was Mourinho's comment.

Are you a United PR intern?

It never fails that no matter what is going on with that club, you pop in to deliver the club narrative.

I guess with Gomez out and Lovren concussed I'd like to see this:

Alisson
Trent - Matip - van Dijk - Robertson
Fabinho - Wijnaldum - Keita
Salah - Firmino - Mane​

That's our best XI for tough games, I think (the only change I'd make against more defensive sides is bringing in Shaqiri for Fabinho).

Curious to see how Napoli approaches today.

Not sure playing for the low scoring 0-0, 1-0 path is gonna work out.

I don't think they'll go crazy opening it up, but I don't think they'll just sit back and let the pressure come. They know a single goal means Liverpool needs 3 (baring an upset in the PSG/Red Star game)

 

[hatterson]

Massive dive in the Porto game.

 

[YNWA14]

Henderson AND Milner over Keita? I really thought he'd be a lock for this game.

Hoping they put in a performance like they did vs. City last season.

 

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

Messi on the bench. Munir starts LOL.

Alena does too which is great but I also wanted Puig in there for a few minutes. Sadly, Pep era is gone.

 

[Burner Account]

Henderson - Wijnaldum - Champions League single season assist record-holder James Milner is not my favorite midfield

 

[Wee Baby Seamus]

Gala playing one pass too many right now

 

[spintheblackcircle]

COYS!

Dele scores big goals against big clubs. Come on, young man.

 

[koyvoo]

Here we go

 

[spintheblackcircle]

KWP sucks. And slow. And soft.

[Live in the Now]

Salah come on man. Robertson with a perfect pass.

 

[YNWA14]

Wow.

Incredible balls from Wijnaldum and Robertson...thought Salah would hit that first time for sure. Mannnnnnn

I find it disturbing how you fail to see obvious sarcasm in my original post.

 

[YNWA14]

Awful Milner

 

[TheLeastOfTheBunch]

That Dembele goal though

 

[Evilo]

Cavani ! Great move from Mbappe. 1-0 PSG. Through at the moment.

 

[Live in the Now]

Some great defending there by Koulibaly. Could have been a goal with almost everyone else.

 

[hatterson]

VVD could have easily seen red for that challenge.

 

[StevenF1919]

That Van Dijk tackle should have been a red. Ridiculous.

 

[Live in the Now]

Meh.

 

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

LOL at the commentary here at the ref... at first I thought it was a terrible call but on the replay it's a foul and a card.

 

[Wee Baby Seamus]

Gross tackle
