The Official Manchester United Thread (Vol 10)

Utd could have lost about 8-2 without De Gea.
Pogba put his usual effort ( or lack of).

[likesachange]

We took off Pogba, Cavani, Bruno, Shaw and AWB our 5 best players and only lost by the one goal away from home in a game we’d already won which will have been in the players minds.
DDG had a great game tho many of those superb saves the goals wouldn’t have stood.
I’d still be selling DDG after that eye catching performance! It’s best he’s played for about 3 years! And May prompt some decent bids.

Nice feeling to be in a final tho!! Remind me... if we win the Europa does that mean 5th place get CL football ?

I don't think so.

I think you'll comfortably win the final, will be nice to see two English European winners in the same year, regardless of who they are.

[anonymous-user]

Very pleased to be in a final although the second leg was slightly odd

Did love seeing Cavani stick up for Mason towards the end, hopefully he's not going anywhere

[ORD]

If Roma could finish, we would be out. They had more than enough chances to win by 4 goals. The defending was utterly shambolic.

Pogba cannot play that position.
DVB cannot play at all.
Cavani is special.

That’s what I learned / confirmed last night.

Yes but I don't think anyone would have complained if we had played without a goal keeper. However, usually, if De Gea isn't playing we get someone else to do his job.

[Frimley111R]

More than good enough last night. No need to stretch ourselves, Roma piled on the pressure and recovered 1 goal. It was never going to be a stand out game for us being so far ahead already and swapping out key players but that was exactly the time to do it.

We scored 8 goals against our opponents and our finalist opposition managed 2. 2 less than Roma. How on earth are you questioning our chances (or are you just trolling).

Utd and Chelsea in European finals?
Football doesn't get worse than that. It's the absolute pits. Combine that with the fact we have been absolute dog dirt and this is right up there with stty seasons.

Naturally, no one really cares about City.

No one really cares about Chelsea either.

All of the financially doped clubs have lost the respect of most of the fans of their historic foes and thus “rivalry” has disappeared to some extent.

[200Plus Club]

Leicester don't seem to want it either! Win on Sunday should do us for 2nd with games in hand.

[dickymint]

Dirty Leeds keeping Spuds at bay

[200Plus Club]

City have bottled it then ... :-)
Chelsea for the CL just as an extra topping cherry on the cake perhaps?

[and31]

That stupid penalty!!

[200Plus Club]

Big win for Chelsea psychologically, they now know they can turn them over in the final.
