Match Day Thread Manchester United v Barcelona

Lukaku's played well in his link up. Martial on,

If only Young could cross

 

He's "doing a job" tonight

 

For a player who is there to make a lot of short passes, he concedes possession a lot.

 

Dalot off.

****.

 

Fred still giving the ball away.

 

You ****ing spanner Pogba.

 

Worst free kick he’s ever taken!

 

How does Lingard get booked for nothing and Pogba doesn't get booked for that? Neither were a booking, but that just makes Lingard's silly.

 

**** that was the chance

 

United fans have been brilliant tonight.

 

good performance .. we paid price for letting them play without closing down ..
guess we need to go the hard way again
this is 4th defeat in 5 tho

 

Ah well, I thought we played well but just weren't good in the final third. Barca were there for the taking tonight.

If only we had someone who could cross the ball.

 

indeed
UTD players too tbh ..well for last 70 minutes only

 

Yeh agree which is a shame because when we went for the high press it worked.

 

spot on
Dalot had great crossing .. he couldn't cross today playing in weaker side !!
am not sure why he didn't play at right and Young at his previous left position ??!!
OLE got this one wrong am afraid

 

that is only to play counter ..
am not sure though we will have that energy away as we will keep playing every 3 days now !! unless we rotate

 

Yeh I didn't get that either. Tbf Dalot was excellent on the left, but the couple of times he had the chance to cross he cut in onto his left foot.

He should've been on the right because Young's crossing is just poor.

 

All to play for in the second leg -

 

Not really bruv.

 

Nah, not really.

If they can score and we can't, while being on top for so long, I don't hold much hope for the away leg.

Even if we do score, they will get, or be given, at least a goal.

We needed to score tonight.
