Today's Football 2017-18 Season

[electricblue]

Attritional football Mourinho style doesn't seem to be much different from attritional football LVG or Moyes style. Can't see him lasting too long if this continues.

Been some great footy last few night, and now this .....

 

[Blue Juice]

Shaktar are 10x better than us easy peasy

 

[electricblue]

Sandro ON. He can't, can he ?

 

[navidson]

Funny seeing all of our crap players rocking up in the Champions League isn't it?

 

[ToffeeDan]

Jesus Navas dives. I don't recall quite the same level of indignation when Stevie Me produced the same dive in a CL game

 

[efcjames]

Mourinho got a new contract for that?

It was like both teams couldn't be arsed, lets settle for 0-0

Feels like I watched a completely different game than the one the commentators described. Man Utd in ''complete control''....a ''masterclass away performance''...clean sheets, clean sheets and more clean sheets. What about an away goal?

In reality they were a world class De Gea save from being beaten, created nothing all night and just looked slow. Sevilla are a score draw away from knocking them out which is hardly some miracle type result. No doubt Man Utd will be the favourites and rightly so but away goals are the true killer of the knockout stages.

Sevilla are poor away from home.

I thought Sandro was going to win it there at the end.

I also thought Rom did well. Utd are awful to watch. They remind us of us this season except with better players.

Nzonzi looks brilliant so far. Pretty much does the job of both Gana and Schneiderlin as well as offering something up top from set pieces as well.

Why would he ever come here.

Funny the way European football has changed over the decades.

A scoreless draw at home in the first leg used to be regarded as a bad result..... now it is viewed as more of a good thing because of not letting the away team score.

It's football though isn't it? Sevilla are poor away until they aren't, Juventus don't concede at home until they did. You get the picture.

For me if you are Man Utd and you have spent all kinds of money on the side you go and lay your marker away from home just like City and Liverpool did. Fair enough both sides played weaker teams than Sevilla (probably up for debate?) but come on that was painful to watch.
