First no Lewa and now no supporters. They are there for taking. We just needed competitive result from the first leg. Was that too much?

But then you have Olympiacos and Nottingham owner who could easily infected players of both clubs. So crowd or no crowd it wouldn't make difference for them.

His own players under the bus.

Steven Bergwijn: Jose Mourinho expects Tottenham winger to miss rest of season with ankle injury At this point I'd be surprised for any goal Spurs score till the end of the season.

Yes there's a difference probably because Kovacic and Kante are different type of players. They don't offer much going forward in 4-3-3. But I felt Mount and Barkley played completely same position last two games just on different sides.

I agree actually. I was just guessing possibilities for the next season. 4-2-3-1 is archaic system barely used in modern football. Liverpool, City, Real, Barca, Juve all play with one number 6 and two number 8. So Jorginho/Gilmour are only players capable of playing deeper. And now for number 8 is a problem. OK for Mount, RLC and Barkley. Their perfect position. Kovacic is great to have for more pragmatic approach. But Kante is completely luxury player in this system we are planning to play. Sell him and buy SMS/Aouar. Again perfect players for the system.

What do you mean by deeper? One number 6 (Gilmour/Jorginho) and two number 8 is the way to go (like we played last couple of games). Number 8 is best position for all Mount, RLC, Barkley. Not sure about Kovacic. He's probably best suited for 4-2-3-1 but that system is archaic in modern football.

No way we change team who kept two clean sheets in a row. So Azpi will play. And we are playing with one number 6 and two number 8.

So weird watching Juve:Inter without audience.

Please no, he would slip and spill everything.

5 disallowed goals for Manchester United opponents in the last 4 games. Fuck off!

Wasn't a foul. Bruno diving cunt

Not in the Brazilian squad announced yesterday. He wants to be part of Copa America in the summer. So that is his motivation for the rest of the season.

Today we didn't play 4-2-3-1. We played 4-1-2-2-1 or you can say 4-1-4-1. This is the perfect formation for Mount but also for Barkley.

Also he was great against Spurs. Motm for me today with Pedro close second.

That's the thing. I see no striker in Europe I'm excited about.

Exactly what I wanted to write!

Never thought I'm going to say this but... So happy Willian is fit. So weird RLC was on the bench weeks ago without match sharpness but now is left out. Emerson is done at Chelsea.

I think I invented it 😏 Btw are you related to Mount?

Can you really say bad run of form for a player who had one month honeymoon period and is producing nothing for more than a five months? And it's different, not all youngsters are comparable. For example, I never said one bad word about Pulisic, CHO or James because they have tremendous potential to be world class players. Even when people started dropping names for new goalkeeper I was loyal to Kepa because he's the one in bad run of form. Kepa showed us last season what he's capable of. Same goas for RLC. If his performances are not good in the coming months I won’t criticize him because he was out for 10 months with horrible injury and was one of the best players last season. I'm sorry but I don't see similar potential in Mason. Imo you are one of the best members here and I agree with 95% of the things you say but not regarding Mount. Even when people try to defend him they go with things like: he's better than Barkley, great at pressing etc... I will celebrate the day when Willian leave this club because of the frustration he caused me with his end product but with Mount here being regular in the future I'll be frustrated even more. Also about Abraham... He will never be good enough to be our first striker. I don't need to see more to know that.

No. Giroud, Pedro and Mount as a front three. Barkley, Gilmour in MF with 3 at the back and wing backs. Or one of James, Zouma or Chris play in midfield which they did before.

Draw here and Utd to lose against City is a good weekend for us in this circumstances.
