Another possible tricky away day.
Hopefully we find some composure again and don’t make a meal of this one.
Partey should be back.

3-0 Iheanacho hatter
Everton and Brentford we struggled against because of the deep block (we really need Jesus back)Quote:

But you have raised the point about defensive weakness, and going forward Leicester are decent and they gave United trouble before Rashford scored and blew Spurs away. It’s going to be a hard game, in the race for top four a draw would be a good result but we need to win to keep any chance of the title going.
Be interesting who starts between Jorginho and Partey.
If Partey is fit, he should start....this game might be too much for Jorginho as I can see the Leicester midfield blowing us apart.Quote:

I've a feeling we might change up the attack, give Eddie a rest.
Yes that’s what has happened. Martinelli and Trossard playingQuote:

Martinelli in for Eddie is a good shout.Quote:

TROSSARD!!!
TROSSSSAARRRRDDD!!!
We've battered them tbh
Trossaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaard!
Great strike too.
Love to see it.
Oh get fucked VAR.
There's nothing in that.
Disallowed. Fuck you VAR.
Fuck sake, is Mason back?
White holding the goalie's arm...
Bullshit
Everybody should know by now, there should be no celebration until VAR has okayed it.
Sounds like we’ve been well on top.
Hopefully we’re not sucker punched here.
that's my worry, we have played fairly well but our final ball is generally poor and Trossard had the only clear chanceQuote:

White was silly in the goal incident, he gave them a reason to cancel it out and tbh if it wer the other way round I'd have though it shoudl be cancelled out too
Jorginho has played really well again though
in teh second half we need Vieira or ESR instead of Xhaka and then Tierney at some stage
Sideways and backwards passing creeping into our game.
We’ve been on top, but just can’t seem to find that bit of space or final pass to finish off a move. Other than the disallowed goal, we’ve put nothing on or even near target.
Strange game really ...we've really battered them but as usual our final balls have let us down.
Playing Trossard and Martinelli has been great for the attack and movement but Martinelli is really off the boil when jt comes to finishing. He's making his case more and more dificult.
Saka too has been below par, which is more worrying as he is far above all our attacking players.
I really have to say Trossard looks the most likely to score and though I have enjoyed this game without Eddie...I think he'll need to come on if we're still chasing it with 30mins to go.
A good game, but the usual suspects and passengers still letting us down with their averageness.
Sometimes I wonder why Odegaard can't be more direct and take a game like this..anyway lets see what the next half has to offer.Quote:

MARTINELLI!!!
Rule that one out you cunts.
Disallowed goal for Saka.
Odegaard :doh:
the pass to Saka was so on
Xhaka, Saka and Daka. :lol:
Five added minutes.
0-1 FT!! Get in.
Back-to-back away games with wins is huge.
:haha:Quote:
