Put Richarlison in my fantasy team just for today and he's really, really bad. Loses every single ball or challenge.

by Firenze Sun Jan 13, 2019 3:08 pm

Predictions for today? I'm sure most of you will say we're gonna get ran over, but genuinely curious.

First real test. I honestly have no idea what to expect.

by RealGunner Sun Jan 13, 2019 3:14 pm

2-2 for me I think. United have more individual talent and the recent momentum can't be ignored. The front 4 are playing their best football together.

Spurs are collectively incredible though but they did have an intense midweek match against Chelsea.

Either a 2-2 or a United win imo.

by Hapless_Hans Sun Jan 13, 2019 3:29 pm

Think it will be high scoring but Tottenham will score more. 4-2 for example. Sonaldo will get a couple.

by Firenze Sun Jan 13, 2019 3:34 pm

Our defense is still an error prone tragedy waiting to happen, so Spurs will definitely score a few goals.

inb4 0-0

Horrible football, even by WWEpl standards, you can say every player looks really,really bad. I dont think I have seen 3 passes strung together. Let alone the never ending, wild, cheap fouling.
THe Asian Cup has better footballers, hell the Handball World Cup has better footballers than this dross.

by Firenze Sun Jan 13, 2019 4:49 pm

by Helmer Sun Jan 13, 2019 5:22 pm

It is definitely not ending 0-1 but good game so far. Draw will be great.

by Hapless_Hans Sun Jan 13, 2019 5:23 pm

Nah Mbappe Neymar Cavani are a different caliber than Son Kane Alli

by Doc Sun Jan 13, 2019 5:25 pm

I just wanna congratulate @Firenze for Utd's future dominance with Ole at the helm. You guys have suffered enough.

of course, i am looking at united's potential to counter. PSG's defense and ability to defend in transition is not very good. that's the match up.

Still another half to go, back things are pretty good.

We actually looked strong against Spurs in the first half of the game earlier in the season before collapsing in the second.

Feels good to actually see the team attack though

Pogba's been so good post Mou, absolute joy to watch, same with Martial, Rashford and NumptiGard

by Doc Sun Jan 13, 2019 5:29 pm

Contrary to what Sports says, PSG's midfield and defense (particularly their fullbacks) are soft. This Utd can actually give them a run though I still think PSG's front 3 is gonna be too much too soon.

by The Demon of Carthage Sun Jan 13, 2019 5:30 pm

@Firenze, do you think you will keep him if he does well or will you replace him at the end of the season regardless?

Actually, today read that Tuchel said in the press conference that his relation with Rabiot remains good and he would very much like to use him as soon as Rabiot's relation with the board normalizes, but it's 'complicated'.
Imagin forbidding your coach to use a player because he's not renewing his contract Laughing
