Match Day Thread 2016/17 Premier League, Cups & Euro Watch

Ajax. Proper European pedigree and a fantastic record at giving youth a chance.

Heard a stat that every team they have fielded since the 80's had a least one academy product in it.

Wouldn't mind em beating utd in the final tbh.

 

Look my view is the teams left in are well organised at the very least but none should be capable over two legs v utd.

Celta Vigo are all well and good but they are no Seville are They?
Anderlecht got a late goal but otherwise... not much good
Ajax are just OK

Utd should do the lot of them. Last year we were always hoping to avoid dortmund but then ended up beating them... and we're always looking at Seville as huge threat.

I don't think any manc is looking at any of these sides as a threat.

 

I wouldn't be so confident. The PL may be exciting but it's nowt special in terms of elite quality and utd are 5th in it.

Utd will be favourites and have a big game manager but they could easily go out or lose the final. They are long way from being in europes elite.

It's football, **** happens, look at leicester.

 

Athleti, Monaco and Juventus - 3 teams built on a decent sized budget. If anyone had doubts about us competing, look at these teams.

 

Unfair to put Juve in there. 6 titles in a row in a dominant position.

Monaco fine... no issue.

Atletico are an example of what spurs have done too. Solid building over time and good decisions


Look at lfc. Delle alli will haunt lfc for 10 years. He was driven... driven to Brendan rogers office by his manager. Lfc assumed he would still be there in summer and even when spurs bid we thought 5mil was too much.

Michael Edwards has been promoted since.... that doesn't align with atletico does it.

 

Blame Gerrard. He was sleeping when Alli went up to LFC and was hoping to meet him.

 

Nah... when someone who is the next gerrard is literally brought to you and you fail to move it's not gerrard not meeting him. We never made and offer.

Spurs got a 100mil player for 5mil.

We can only hope the guy goes to real asap

 

Juve - Good for Buffon to finally win it.
Monaco - Good, young and attractive footballing team.
Atletico - So close in the last few years, be good for them to actually get it right for once.
Real - Can **** off.

 

All true. Semi final draw is going to be interesting.

 

Suarez has lost it...

Juve - can't see past their historic cheating ... sorry
Monaco - they're French .... say no more
Atletico - it's their turn
Real - same as you but I wouldn't have used those words

 

Everyone is showing off their new kits for next season.

Always wondered what Biscan looked like.

 

Steady lad .................steady

 

Utd now 2-2 on aggregate, if Anderlect get another then Utd need 2 more

 

I think utd have bottled it on selection having beaten chelsea rhey think they can win the prem now.

Seriously though... utd should easily see this out.

 

Neither team seems to know how to defend. Interesting watch.

 

I note

A) sky had a when is the semi final draw on their match thread.

B) rojo is off injured... is it serious?

 

Was watching Lingard and thought he hasn't progressed much, but will maybe be good in a couple years when he develops. Turns out he is 25 this year

 

He has been good at times and him and rashford ripped the **** out of chelsea last weekend.

Hes not consistent at all
