Good one. I was also going to say this about our midfield. Matic, Herrera and Mkhitaryan are slower in movement than Kate, Bakayoko. Perhaps, the reason our defenders were coming into midfield to halt Chelsea.

We are very fast at the back and front but slow in the middle of the park. If Fellaini started we could have distorted them with long balls, and if Pogba were available we could hold the ball better.

I read Lingard was about to come in for Mkhitaryan before the goal, then Mourinho changed his mind and called Lingard back. That shows he knew we needed some speed in midfield. The team will learn from this.

you're quite right,people tend to underestimate d extent of our injury woes,matic and Herrera have been playing constantly for some time,so fatique must have crept in,micki has been very poor,but d more disturbing fact is that I know that Mata won't offer anything better that's y I'm not always on mickis case...we really miss pogbas presense in that midfield,its no coincidence that micki,lukaku and our general team play has reduced in his absense..

finally lukaku is not really a good player,peeps here can absorb him all they want that he wasn't given chances blah blah,but d fact remains that he was puss poor,can't hold d ball,can't bring others to the game..he's quite big and still can't win aerial balls,that's what annoys me the most..but all d same,we lost to a very good team..forget this talk of Chelsea not inform,Chelsea vs Manu isn't really about who's in form or not,both teams normally bring their A game,and considering the fact that its against mou,its more motivation for them..but the players need to take more responsibility on d pitch

Whoa, I think it was an excellent portrayal of the Sherlock Holmes character in modern times and making Watson a woman was ingenuous also how are you not applauding Johnny Lee's performance. I think it's a great show.

hehe,don't mind me jare,elementary is good..just that I first watched Sherlock before elementary,so its kinda difficult for any other to match it..

Sherlock is also set in modern times..and I love d British originality

Kaziar:
Just finished WESTWORLD can't wait for season 2. Started the unit, seems really good and serious(no comic relief). And am yet to see anyone mention one the greatest shows of all time ELEMENTARY(Johnny Lee Miller is just too much) l love that guy.

elementary is just a poor man's "Sherlock"

You won't win either

Oasis007:

Oasis007:

Hope United won't end up meeting Real Madrid in the next Round?!

Tottenham ain't in the UCL to JOKE this Time around, they indeed mean Business.

hehehehe..thought I was d only one doing d permutations already cos its clear they would finish 2nd in that group,nd d last time they ended 2nd,it was us they met...

but e no go happen,na psg dem go meet

Emaprince:
This dele ali sef. I dont see the fantastic footie this guy is playing.. But he will always pop up to score.

that's just the thing about him,he's very suited to the system of spurs,but he's a very intelligent player who makes great runs behind d defenders

diggz:
It is so frustrating trying to keep up with both games cuz they are both interesting.

I think Napoli are doing a number on city. Once you can neutralize kdb...they won't be able to do shyttee from what I can see at the moment.

otamendi just equalised

diggz:
Spurs ain't messing around mehn

peeps underate this spurs too much,but poch has really worked on them,before d game started I expected a draw sha..let's c how it turns out...

is napoli showing us how to neutralize pep?

CapitalCee:
That number 6 has "Mike" Smally written all over it.
It may not be a great tactics though for mourinho, but his approach to games will really be handy during the business end of the UCL. He will win UCL in United

exactly my thoughts,tho I'm not really a fan of the defensive approach of mou,buy looking at d bigger picture in the cl,this our defense might just save us..when we scored against spurs,I was with a Chelsea fan who was trying to ease me that there's no way we would concede..mou has drilled those defenders well,and we also have degea btw d sticks...just for our attack to b more cohesive and efficient..its just really painful that any slight drop of form,d way most here call for his head is sad..

CapitalCee:
They made mistake selling those players. And again they failed to get Mbappe. Most of madrid key players have age getting to them

yea,selling those players and not getting mbappe was a very big mistake...to b sincere I like what they are passing through currently

CapitalCee:
1 The game is won by the team who commits fewer errors.

2 Football favours whoever provokes more errors in the opposition.

3 Away from home, instead of trying to be superior to the opposition, it’s better to encourage their mistakes.

4 Whoever has the ball is more likely to make a mistake.

5 Whoever renounces possession reduces the possibility of making a mistake.

6 Whoever has the ball has fear.

7 Whoever does not have it is thereby stronger.

hmmm...what a perspective of d game...
that no 6 get as e b

CapitalCee:
Real madirid have lost to Girona part timers. Hmmn LaLiga is over even before it syarted2

well I guess this is the season where zizou would finally b tested..d sale of morata nd James was always going to hunt them..no game changer from d bench again...

patrickmuf:
I didn't anyway imply that we were going to attack all through, I only referenced our performance yesterday which was measured, we attacked and defended in almost equal measure...

of course I didn't mean we wud attack all through,what I mean is that it won't b like the spurs game...we would use a more cautious approach

elrony:
My eyes are paining me!!!

One Shekpite said BaFraudYoko issa Defensive Winger

hehehehe,it was truly baffling to see

patrickmuf:
Lol see as una dey behave like babies...We won yesterday playing the way we all want the team to play so lets just give props to the coach and players in anticipation of a repeat performance against Chelsea...

don't get your hopes high for a repeat performance away to Chelsea,I don't expect us to come out like we did against spurs,but I still don't expect us to defend like we did at anfield..its going to b a balanced game,what would define that game is the few chances that come up

bristol city it is

patrickmuf:
Happy birthday to me, I expect a gift of 3 pts against Spurs...#GGMU

happy bday bruh,don't worry,we wud beat them 1 0

just watched d highlights of the match,rashidi showed great awareness and skill for that first goal,he's always good with those flicks when playing as a top 9,but it seems anytime he's shifted to d flanks,his gameplay reduces...

the second goal was a real work of art of tuanzebe,he really tried to play his way out of trouble and find d pass to darmian..hope this win does give the lads confidence going to the spurs game..

bravo is good at penalties oo

Lana1:
Lol. Let them qualify. Their bus stop dey front.
Asides KDB and Silva, this City team no move me!

The only difference between them and us, asides the two listed players above is they ve a manager who attacks and goes for the win, while we ve one who stays cautious to avoid defeat!

abeg they shouldn't qualify oo,let their confidence and morale have a dent..the thing that would most likely affect them is loss of form to either of kdb or silva,then fatique...

Lana1:
See the Man City everyone is creaming themselves over.
Sterling, Gundogan, Toure, Aguero, etc and its still 0-0 against Wolver'fucking'hampton at the Etihad after 100 mins.
MAke una calm down. Their goals go still dry up

the painful thing is that they might still qualify

Oasis007:
Shaw was introduced in the 87 Mins Bro! An you expect his Morale to be boosted just playing for 3-5 Mins?!

anyways let's just leave this back and forth talk,happy for d win..let's move onto d next match...

pls share us mourinho post match quotes,keep up d good work

JayKayMaybachz:
Calm down

I'm calm

Oasis007:
Seem you are interested in a lengthy but fruitless Discourse Tonight?! Shaw was on the Bench, same as Mata! Giving Shaw few Minutes to boost his Confidence in an already won Match, simply by removing yellow-carded Blind for him won't be a bad Call Either! Same as Mata replacing Rashford.

I think Shaw still played,matic for Herrera was a straight swap,but lukakus entry being termed "cowardice" honestly baffles me,if he had said that it was a foolish sub considering the fact that we were already leading bt 2 goals,its more reasonable..

anyways,happy for d win,unto the next one

Bros I weak for those fucktards o, I just weak for them. Dem go open toilet roll company for bet house

r you seeing mancity?

KingTom:
That's why I replied that Mourinho's crime here was being born, because you and I can't see anything that warrants him being a coward now can we?

smh,there are other reasons for criticizing that substitution,buy cowardice isn't part of it..

Oasis007:
He subbed in Matic and Lukaku despite that United is leading by 2 Goals to Nil

Okk bringing in our highest goal scorer in a match we are leading 2 0 is an act of cowardice? what if he had brought in a defender,it would have been ac act of valor...
I think he doesnt want Herrera fatiqued,and I read that rashidi was limping in the first half,but hey,nothing the gaffer does seems to be ok

KingTom:
He was born

how bro,I still don't get..I meant to ask what mou did in the match that we are leading 2 0 that makes him a coward..I'm following d game online,but maybe he that is watching is seeing somethings I don't
