Need a total renovation

Ok that was shit but not as shit as yours...

In all seriousness - they need an entire back line, an entire midfield and a strike force... I would perhaps take Martial and thats about it but even he goes missing and is inconsistent albeit in and out of the team doesnt help

I think that’s an exaggeration. They do have a lot of weaknesses, but have plenty of good attacking players.

I would love Rashford in our squad. Would take Pogba as well no question ( even if I think he’s a twat).

Liverpool would beat this Barca team, they're not that great IMO

The Liverpool team is overrated too. We bossed them on their own patch only a few weeks ago whilst out of form and missing players. We’d never boss the Barca first team.

Knockout football though, anything can happen. Liverpool have a ridiculous amount of luck too which is always worth remembering

PSG must be watching this and breaking their fucking hearts that they didn't kill Utd off when they had the chance instead of just waiting for the final whistle....

They are but I don't think this Barca team like being pressed and I can just imagine how aggressive Liverpool would be against them.

I think even we would give them a game, I know we lost to them in the group but we did have 5 first reamers missing and it was at Wembley.

To me Barca have Messi who is clearly above everyone else on the planet bar Ronaldo but all the other players they have can be stopped.

Giving him the job full time on the back of that lucky win at PSG was so stupid, they are paying the price now, going out of CL tonight and will not finish in top 4 either
Meh - Ole is the perfect manager for a Europa-level club.

United will probably sack Woodward next season, and replace OGS next summer.

He failed miserably at a championship level club and couldn’t even dominate the Norwegian league.

He’s not proved himself to be Europa level club worthy by a long shot. Shocking appointment by United...luckily!

He will leave in the summer if they lose this and miss top 4 in league.

Oh! Ajax come close to a second!

It’s a tough one. Ajax are deemed to be the soft touch, but there’s two things -

1. It’s going to take something special for us to even go through, it’s still a massive ask

2. If we can somehow get past City, a big part of me wants Juve. They were lucky last year and took advantage of our naivety and Wembley. Let’s see how they get on at The Lane and without the tourists and plenty of tickets going to them that shouldn’t have.

I don't see that. The embarrassment would be unbelievable. They treat him like their saviour and then sack him after only five months? The'll stick with him until some way into the season.

I admit, I'd love to see us humiliate them in revenge. If we were already through, then I may have felt differently. But I despise Juve, especially now that that oily prick Ronaldo is there.
