It’s not over. Could be a game of two halves. We take Kane off, and have no hold up man and can’t find an out ball. Lamela gets sent off, sissoko misplaces a 5 yard pass that leads to a United counter attack, scored by Fernandes (of course). then utter capitulation commences....
4-1 HT. An utterly crazy first half. We need to take some more of these chances and kill it off completely. A professional and sensible second half is required.
Really good individual performances from a number of players so far. Kane and Sonny yet again stealing the show but Hojbjerg has swept up nicely alongside Sissoko, Lamela’s been an intelligent and nasty ****, Reggie and Aurier have been great on the wings. I’d now look at getting Coco off though, he’s on a yellow and Utd have to go for broke, Lucas on the counter will be much better than Coco.
Lamela is having a great game but I’d put Moura on and nullify the risk of another yellow card and 10 men each. I’d keep kane and son on now they look so confident and we don’t have a game for ages after this so no issue in saving energy now
Let's call a spade a spade here ... 1. A Spurs XI with Aurier starting 2. A gifted penalty within 2 mins and still 1-4 down at HT, In summary : 1. No Jose "master class" . 2. Man Utd are sh*te 3. No home crowd is definitely a disadvantage when things go pear-shaped for you.
