  1. The number of tackles he makes and wins is ridiculous. Best in the league currently and much higher than the next best. Could develop into a fantastic right-back in the future and if Chelsea goes in with an offer, it will be tough to see anyone else get him since he has lived near London and loves the place
  2. Would still love to have a decent third option in the squad (even someone like Martial or Son who can put in a shift in up-front) rather than go for a false nine with Pedro or Hazard. Martial for Willian in the summer would have been an absolute steal
  3. Can still go ahead of them if we win our games in hand. Plus, United vs Arsenal next week. Can start to build a cushion as well
  4. If only for a night, Pedro has been exceptional. Way to shut up the doubters
  5. That left side is Hazard-Alonso again and we will concede again. When will Sarri learn? If today's game goes wrong, then goodbye Sarri. This is on you and your stubbornness
  6. Not sure about this article. Even if the team is building a possesion-based tactic, in some matches especially the big ones, any team will inevitably counter attack and try to catch teams off-guard and with less defenders. It is common sense
  7. There are things you can control - like Jorginho trying the skip shot - I think everyone saw it coming. But it is a lot about nerves and luck
  8. Nah. My sympathies with Sarri. A player should walk when his name comes up.
  9. Kepa Azpi Rudiger Luiz Emerson Kante Jorgi RLC CHO Higuain Hazard
  10. Pedro too. Clean through and should have smashed it past Ederson. Rudiger almost had a tap in too from a Hazard cross. Definitely a refreshing performance after recent weeks but maybe because the team was so scared early on, did not do enough to get over the line. Were always wary of being exposed on the counter
  11. Penalties are lottery. Let's not act like Caballero would have won the cup for us
  12. Media will play it up but as long as there is no tension in the squad it will be fine. Thankfully, the reaction did not blow this thing even more out of proportion
  13. Sarri's immediate reaction was in the heat of the moment. His interview later in which he was asked about this repeatedly was classy and dignified. I have no problem with a passionate manager getting angry like that as long ashe reviews the situation with a cool head later on.
  14. Disappointing that no player on the pitch stepped in to sort out the Sarri-Kepa situation especially captain Azpi. Where are the leaders in this team? There is a clear lack of leadership within the club which has been the case ever since the old guard left. Shows what a mess the club is at the moment. Feel bad for Sarri
  15. Will take the positives from the game. Emerson was excellent apart from letting Sterling in once in extra time. Kante is a beast while playing a low-block game like this. Hazard, Rudiger played well and the rest did not do too much wrong. Sarri's decisions were refreshing to watch.
  16. Well played but FUMING right now. Try something else Jorginho. Even I knew this was gonna happen with that stupid skip shot. At least Luiz was close. Kepa - WTF? What voodoo shit were you trying there? Ederson was a beast in that shootout. Went the right way each time.
  17. Same shots as semifinal? Change it up lads!
  18. Kid is backpedalling quickly. Sane is helping
  19. Kepa continues. Could be the hero today
  20. Champions of europe you'll never sing that? Fans have found their voice
