Magic Lamps

Should have been a 0-0. Was no penalty and Cech should have kept it out. Nonetheless. If our players decide to give it a go in the home leg, we will be through, if not we gift it to Bucharest. Love how emotional their fans are about it, they do not get it has nothing to do with them.

ref is such a joke. giving in at any of their silly timewasting attempts. They can spare those. They have no influence on whether they progress or not. It is simply our players' choice whether to put in soem effort or not.

as soon as Torres gets the ball u know he will lose it. this is an amateur game. i could play there.

The players do not hoof the ball forward because tehy are not composed enough, they are doing this because it is not poosible to play a proper passing game.

the ref's a joke

as soon as the ball bounces it gets unpredictable, the surface makes it impossible for our technical player to control it instantly, so they simply hoof the ball forward.

They already start timewasting.

No one can play well on this so called pitch.

lol Scholes????????????????? U are kiddin me right??? That small ginger fella who has been a complement player for Utd his entire life? This has to be joke. The only argument for Scholes is that he has won so many titles with manU but than u could also argue Carrick is the best English midfielder of his generation. Both also have never won an individual award. Maybe that is also an argument for u that a player is good. lol. Scholes might have played for ages but he has been average his entire career. Lamps displaced Scholes in the England team, cos he is better. Lamps has actually LED his team to titles not been an occasional sub. lamps has scored and assisted multiple times the number scholes has. Lamps has won countless individual award including 2nd best player in the world even though he is English, even though an EPL palyer, even though he split votes with Gerrard. I'd even have Gerrard over Scholes anyday and Gerrard is only a poor people's Lamps. LOLZ Scholes. my ass.

What a horrible place this is. Fuckin laser, pitch lookin like the backside of the moon, useless striker, u can not expect a good game here

benayoun should have scored that, good movement but why doesn#t he shoot that harder

ref such a dick. it should have been a red if it is a penalty.

that was no penalty but I am still confident we will get a result.

Isn't benayoun a Right-sided offensive midfielder? We are playing him in his position, whilst Marin is more a left sided attacking midfielder/winger

lol Torres, but he can blame the pitch here. Hazard, Lamps, Luiz, Bertrand all have struggled with it already

ha "benyoun's last start was 4 managers ago" the pitch is dreadful. Bucharest should get disqualified for that

torres even provided a Bucharest player with a shooting opportunity with his tackle come vertical pass. It is even worse than playing with 10 men, its playing like 10 vs 12

Europa League is a very tough competition for us since we have to contest it with only 10 players starting.

I know a lot of people who agree with me that Lamps is the best midfielder of his generation who are not Chelsea fans. Plus on emight consider that he is the greatest goalscoring midfielder ever and has more assists than Gerrard, Xavi, Iniesta or whoever u might compare with him. Mata is compeletely different player than di Maria, but the main reason Mata will never win the Golden Ball is because he plays in the Premier League. Europe's governing bodies have never been that fond of the greatest league in the world. Anyway, I don't give a fuck Lamps is one of the best midfielders ever and Mata will be a top10 player of the world sooner rather than later.

Plus Mario Gomez comes across as dumb, arrogant, self-centred, mentally fragile, all the time trying to cover his ineloquence with stupid sayings and jokes. Even though he is of Spanish decent, he does not really speak a foreign language in a way someone can understand him. So all in all pretty similar to Torres.

like for like then :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: If the board wants a player whose only assets are his height, strength, pace and ability to be in the right place at the right time in unimportant matches against shitty oppositions, I offer my services for free. Like any Gomez is past his best, which was when he scored shitloads against shitty defenders. He can shoot, head and poach at times, but is only profitting from the service players like Kroos, Müller, Schweinsteiger, Robben and Ribery deliver, who even though I think they are overrated themselves are worlds above most bundesliga players. Buying him would be the biggest mistake since buying Torres, cos he is exactly as reliant on pin-point service. Bayern's strikers always had prolific strikers, cos they always had the best midfield in the bundesliga. But it is tough to remember when they had a true worldclass striker. Luca Toni, Miro Klose and Roy Makaay were much better than Gomez and still not neccessarily worldclass. Keep Ba, Recall Lukaku and buy a fine 23-27y.o. small, agile poacher and we are fine in that department

Yeah a player like Modric is exactly what we need. And those players are rare as fuck. There are shitloads of flashy AMs or technically limited DMs but few players as all-round skilled as Modric. To play a double pivot u need two palyers that can pass, tackle, hold the ball and cover ground. Modric can do all of this, but unless we find s.o. like him we probably have to buy an entire new double pivot to fully assemble these required abilites. Modric himself is already 27 or so and will cost immensely.

I don't give a shit about Utd. But as a lifelong football fan I cannot accept my sport being ruined by pathetic refereeing no matter who is handicapped by it.

It's not only Utd that was slain by the ref, another little piece of football was buried today.

what a save by lopez once again. They did not miss casillas in these matches
