Bold strategy from us today. Get the ball and pass it directly to a Brighton player.

 

Brighton run North London

 

"THE RACE FOR THE TOP FOUR" really is the dullest fucking thing to be hyped for unless you're involved in it. Modern football all over.

 

Conte might murder someone in the dressing room after sitting through that from Spurs

 

I mean the joke writes itself but Conte’s big mistake was saying Spurs had 7 finals left…

 

I hate BT Sports usually, but fair play to their commentators referring to that performance as being "Spursy". Excellent shit stirring, not the first time this season they've done it either

 

Wait, media clowns are trying to make of spurs? I’m so shocked.

 

ughh. first United game I can watch in weeks and it's not on telly.

 

Spurs deserve criticism for playing so poor today but calling it’s spursy is hilarious when the reason we’re in this position is because Arsenal lost back to back games to Palace and Brighton. What do we call that?

 

Not able to stream it?

 

yeah but today is a rare day I could watch it on tv as opposed to my computer.

 

Ah fair. Yeah, annoying

 

The beauty of comfortably winning our first leg against Benfica is that we rotated on Wednesday, whereas City are rotating today.

Midfield battle will be interesting. Rodri and KdB on the bench for City. Thiago-Fab-Keita should be ideal for moving the ball and finding any potential spaces. I guess Guardiola's hoping the mobility of Foden and Silva helps Fernandinho play his natural game.

 

I love Elanga!

 

Doesn’t look like Norwich will be getting another manager sacked today

 

In classic Manchester United fashion we’ve been shite since scoring.

 

A lot of rumours that Ten Hag will be confirmed after the KNVB Beker final tomorrow so you never know…

 

Just saw that Arsenal play 3 times before we kick off again. Massive week coming up.

 

I wonder if Dalot has passed to a United player not named Ronaldo at all this season

 

Dortmund 5-0 up after 38 minutes against Wolfsburg

 

The most annoying thing about Pogba is the fact he always takes a second touch rather than play the simple, open pass.

 

Wolfsburg had a big win to stave off relegation last week. I guess they're on the beach now.

 

Predictable.

 

The amount of times one of our players wins the ball off a pressure and decides to try keep the ball and lose it rather than play the easy pass to keep possession is bizarre.

 

It really is going to come down to that NLD match. Arsenal have Chelsea and United back to back this week. I’d imagine one of those will be a loss. And we have away to Liverpool soon which is probably a loss. May 12 will be such a stressful afternoon lol
