His technique is below par but he is a few striker who can play as both target man and poacher.

The crazy part with ibra is he has Rashford in his team who imo without LVG will never play for United. A guy who showed flashes of world class potential under LVG

Coutinho finally showed that he can do it consistently. He used to be an overrated player. Scored some ridiculous goal but that's it. Now he is in absolutely sparkling form.

Offensively this Liverpool side is riddiculous

They looked decent a couple times I watched them under Guidolin this season, unlucky but decent yet they fired him

We gave them nothing and we had tons2 of chances and we are keeping the ball extremely well. Brilliant 1st half

If I am not wrong, they are currently in a bad spell.

Fantastic pressing by city. This barcelona teams looked out of sync

I don't understand why should we bring willian. Pedro is playing just fine. Made few run combined well with others

Why? Willian will not help. Southampton is playing safe football and we are not pressing. That is more of the problem

But the only way you can know whether your 2nd tier player is good enough is to play them in this kind of game.

United was playing with all senior player. Whereas most team played 2nd tier players plus youth. Mourinho always treat league cup seriously not sure why

Jose was playing 433 with herrera and Fellaini to protect Pogba so no excuse and no he will not be brilliant next to kante because it simply means kante has to work by hmself protecting the whole midfield (I think Deschamps tried it in Euro) The problem with Pogba is he is a wonderful talent but not a 80 m pound player. It feel like he is trying to do to much, what he need to do is just play like any other midfielder rather than trying to be the star

It is not 100% his fault, I have no idea what Kompany was doing he need to drop back not push up

Barcelona Valencia is a weird. Many bad calls from the referee but the worst part is how easy to influence the referee. Sligt pull or slight contact and the other team will surround the referee for a yellow card and he will give it

This liverpool looks really good. High pressure with plenty of movement upfront. Can and lallana provide width so coutinho can go narrow.

I think the better question is who do you think should we target who is better that Courtois. I personally have 0 problem with courtois he is a very good all around GK. You cannot compare him with De Gea who is the best shot stopper in the world even better than Neuer

Worried about this game, 2nd half against leciester showed what happen when we are pressed and teams understand that you have to mark David Luiz and let cahill be our starting point. I also can see mourinho put ibrahimovic against azpi and just play long ball and lots of crosses from Valencia. Azpi is a wonderful defender but not good in the air

Messi looked like an old Messi, he is no longer an explosive player who can take on defender from midfield line but still 3 goals, 1 assist, a few chances created and won a penalty

Not sure you can say that when our CB is 31,36,32,29 and one young CB who had a horrible injury

I will wait for the end of the season before making decision on Fabregas, so far we have played 343 twice against hull and leciester. (before their ucl match, they rested Mahrez) We played well but let's wait longer

Agree, not sure what they were talking about but it looked like he was challenging Conte to sub him out if he didn't agree with his decision. I am on Diego side in this matter, you simply cannot complain about player movement in the game, if you want to do that call him to the sideline and tell him what do you want

Oh it was cynical and it was intentional but I thought it was more of a professional foul. He didn't swing it violently, it was just a bad call imo

Nah they won't walk this league because Epl has plenty of good teams and city is not a super team like Barcelona or RM. However I still think they will win the league because I have watched maybe 4/5 of their games so far, and they haven't played badly in any of them except maybe their 1st game

I don't think they played that bad. Everton had only one chance the whole game and city had 2 penalties and one goal.
