GWT: PL Matchday 2

[hatterson]

Yep, onside by a couple inches.

 

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

Thank god that goal stood.

 

[East Coast Bias]

Great goal. That's f***ing frustrating. Needed to take more of the chances early on. Typical shit.

 

[koyvoo]

Neves is amazing

 

[Jussi]

Neves is amazing

The one player I've wanted United to get since last season.

 

[Havre]

Neves is amazing on YouTube. Got to improve his mobility a lot to play for the very best. So slow around the pitch. Wolves are clearly shielding him. Great in possession though.

 

[hatterson]

United have lost their pace in the second half.

 

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

Adama has beefed up since his barca days... guy should be a linebacker

 

[Jussi]

Pogba should "wake up" to this game as well.

 

[Jersey Fresh]

Neves is amazing

Hadn't noticed him at all up until that point, to be honest.

 

[hatterson]

Hadn't noticed him at all up until that point, to be honest.

That's kinda his game. He's not gonna boss the midfield or anything, but he is gonna score an absolute highlight reel goal a half dozen times a season.

Agreed. Which is why people immediately default to "amazing", but he leaves a whole lot wanting.

 

[Aladyyn]

Pogba should "wake up" to this game as well.

edit: oops

 

[hatterson]

Untied are so slow in switching the play. Wolves are able to overload the ball side and outnumber the attackers easily. United switches have been slow and predictable where it goes back to the defenders or keeper to switch it.

Aaaand as I type it Pogba makes a great run to draw a penalty.

 

[AB13]

Ugly dive by Pogba, nice to see him miss

 

[hatterson]

Great save by the keeper.

 

[spintheblackcircle]

great atmosphere.

 

[koyvoo]

Hadn't noticed him at all up until that point, to be honest.

It’s his way. Mostly unassuming until a moment of brilliance impacts a game.

 

[Jersey Fresh]

Still think United nick the win.

 

[Jussi]

Higher and more left and it would have been in.

 

[hatterson]

Not a good penalty. Hit with power, but not far enough to the corner and at the perfect height for the keeper to save.

 

[Jersey Fresh]

Higher and more left and it would have been in.

Yeah, more in the net part.

 

[OhCaptainMyCaptain]

Higher and more left and it would have been in.

And hitting it to the right side of the net as well.

 

[hatterson]

Yea, AWB probably shouldn't be taking those shots

 

[Jussi]

And hitting it to the right side of the net as well.

Well that's a crapshoot. Better judge the actual intended effort, which wasn't the best. He used to put those in last season more closer to the post and higher.
