Are you saying they are similar to city or when they played city?

Not surprised at all with barca juventus results. I watched a few of barca game (one El classico and one more). They look very imbalance, heavy top, confuse midfield and error prone back 4. Whenever you press them, you will create tons of chances without even trying.

Plus pirlo can teach our players how to do set pieces and long ball properly. He can dong great long with any feet

He was brilliant against Arsenal just a few days ago, most football fans has very short term memory

Are you talking right now or you are talking about messi in his prime because right now Hazard is in his prime where as Messi on his way down. Without question right now hazard is a better dribbler than messi but at his prime messi can pick up the ball and midfield and scared the whole defence

For all the praise that liverpool had and all the bash on united and arsenal, if United and arsenal won their two extra games, all of then will have the same and City is only one point above them

Rather than Costa, my main problem from today is defence especially their 2nd goal. I am not sure why either puncheon/ zaha don't remember can run free like that. 1st goal was dumb mistake by pedro and fantastic finish by zaha, it is what happen when you are in form

I thought conte made mistake taking off Alonso, should have taken off Pedro, was surprised it is going to be for alonso

I felt that he should have brought Michy for pedro not for Alonso. IMO alonso is a better crosser especially from the left

But will he going to be in costa position. Costa finishing was awful but his movement I thought was very good. Like I said in previous post, I expected much more from michy. I wanted him to run the channel non stop to stretch the defender because he is fresh.

Who should we play then as striker ? Micy, I expect more from michy because he came on fresh but his movement need to be more dynamic

I don't get it. He may played poorly today but it was more in term of finishing. He did bring physicality upfront and good forward playe. I saw Costa made tons channel run to stretch the defender and sometimes drop deeper to provide passing option. That is what you need from a striker not just goals this days.

This kind of games happen, we have been very lucky so far. Today we could not score and they scored the second goal from lucky bounce. It is one of those days.

That is one of the worse footwork I have seen the from a gk. His footwork is so bad. He should have been able to save at least origi and Mane goals

I don't get why people want him to leave then try to replace him with the like of morata,griezman or dybala. It is like we are trying to create poor version of MSN. Costa bring a much needed physicality and aggresiveness upfront. If he is going to leave then maybe Lukaku can replace him but I haven't watched much everton game to judge

I don't get why people are complaining that player want to move. I have 0 problem, football is business, turnover is normal. If Diego want to move, as long as we get tons of money from him and reinvest the money in good players why not. Lukaku is probaby our main target if diego is going to leave, we need a player who can play against 2 cb and be a physical threat upfront. If hazard want to leave is whole another story because finding a similar replacement is almost impossible.

It is his price tag that cause super high level of expectations. I think he is a world class midfielder but not a 100 M player

soft penalty

There has not been a really good English team for a while. United has never been the same after saf, we all know about arsenal and we are currently trying to build a new team.

I watched a few of RM game and they don't impress me at all. Ronaldo overall game is horrible, he is now a pure poacher who does not contribute at all.

I have never watched Monaco played that includes bakayoko and Fabinho but you mentioned that they are playing two defensive Midfielder hence I said I don't want us to play 2 dm but if they are similar to yaya then they are not really dm.

Finally, good draw. Should be fun games

Finally good draw

Completely agree, I don't want us to copy Barca or Real. I want us to play with less skill but more power and speed. But I also don't want us to play two defending mids in middle, it works with Monaco because they played Manchester city and we all know how Guardiola like to play. Against most team, we need a more attacking option, basically in a perfect world we need a tall box to box player who can defend. Dembele is probably the best option on top of my head but Levy will never sell anything to us

lol but to be fair they are definitely one of the best side in that tournament along with Germany
