    Herrera is a horrible ****. As soon as saw united player fall over trying to claim a head butt knew it would be him.

    Mata is lucky not to go for that tackle. Horrible tackle on the ankle no where near the ball

    Football was only invented in 2004 according to Chelsea fans, so it doesn't count, sorry.

    Indeed. We've been linked with him and Klassen so I watched both closely, on that performance simply not good enough for the PL.

    Harsh to judge them against a negative United side that have managed to stifle many better attacking players this season.

    You would think Spurs would be kicking themselves more than anyone. They have ended their season with much the same as us and genuinely think had they wanted to they could have won this comp.

    Not really, they were both completely anonymous against a side that we'd need to overhaul in order to improve next season , and they both stank.

    Tell you this, I thought I'd search a lot longer to find a team more slow and narrow than we are without Mane. But.... congrats to Unitard - they totally deserve this. I want that sanchez though!

    So were the Everton team at Anfield, doesn't mean they're not good enough for the PL.

    Such an easy game. You could tell after 2mins really.

    Ref really took pity on ajax too.

    Would you spend £60m on the pair based on that showing?

    Solberg could have been pale tonight and done nothing. Traore is actually awful. Utd have stood off him and let him dance til everyone is set.

    Klaaasen clearly though is not the guy

    Did Ajax get their deckchairs from the same place as Everton, I wonder?

    but you would never make the decision on one game though would you. The only thing it shows is they struggled with
    a) the occasion
    b) ManU defensive tactics

    or they struggle against a well organised PL team .

    Bit unfair on a kindergarten team.....

    They just look like the second placed team in a dutch league that sells every bit of talent it makes.

    Utd could have played their u23s and won i reckon

    Dolberg who knows but I wouldn't buy klaaasen on that showing.

    Basically.... I certain would not stump up 30mil each to a club without 2 bob to rub together

    No mate, I just think its harsh writing them off based on one game. Maybe surround them with more experienced players they would've performed better. I can't imagine Pogba or Rashford playing any better if you swapped them into the Ajax team.

    Spurs never kick themselves over dumping a cup. They played for league and league alone. Fa cup run was even unfortunate for them lol.

    Spurs I think will look back in 5 years and wonder why didn't they win something.

    I just feel they will lose players to bigger clubs, pay lower wages and just see city, Chelsea and Utd buy and win stuff.
