That's what I was wondering. If looked like he was playing centre and dio wide. Dio just not good enough. He wasn't marking at all. He gave Valencia so much space for the first goal. You can actually see his teammates screaming at him to mark.
The left of a central midfield three. Dio outside him. When Dio went off, he went out on the left. Then when Tymon went off, Clucas went out there.
Watching Dio play is like watching schoolboys play, he is ball watching all the time and drifts towards it and does'nt realise what space he is leaving behind him.
Thought that the manager placed a good deal of trust in Tymon, especially 2nd half when he played inside Dio. Obviously sees something in him. Pity we may not see him for a while.
Had to work, but managed to watch it, thought the guys were magnificent. Silva can improve us, I have no doubt about that. I also think Man U will think it's all over, so we could have an advantage there.
Offside first goal. Dio incorrectly given offside - though he missed. Snodgrass's FK was encroached and United not penalised. Injury after injury. FFS.
Yes, just about everyone would agree ... when he's in that silly mood. But ... the abuse he almost incessantly receives on here -- even when he posts something sensible or even interesting -- is quite shameful. If he annoys you that much, put him on ignore, or just scroll past his posts. When you've been on here a little bit longer, you'll start to realize that there's a smallish clique of bad boys ("turds of a feather") who try to impose their will on others. Some very good, long-time posters have recently left the board, partly, but certainly not entirely, because of their bully-boy behaviour. You'll find that this sad little rat-pack frequently try to get the mods to ban or suspend people who stand up to them. It's really quite pathetic, and leaves a nasty taste in one's mouth.
oh they were the better team, ours was essentially a chumpionship squad. cmon AA, get your hand in your pocket
They were but it frustrates me when we don't deserve the result and the team doesn't get reward for their effort. Should have essentially been 1-0 which would have left it all to play for in the return leg.
