Saw that coming. We are lucky to be tied right now

 

[SunhiLegend]

Llorente 1-1

 

[WJD]

Good goal. We're shit.

 

[cartoon_soldier]

Prefer him at RB ahead of jones

Rafael RB, Fabio LB should be good starting next season.

 

[Messi]

Llorente deserved, yuuusss

 

[keit4]

What a disappointment, ManU is playing like a B tier team.

 

[EliCash]

Bilbao have been great, really impressed.

 

[elsk]

Nice. Athletic Bilbao is the only spanish side I like, thanks to Bielsa.

 

[ShogunX]

Well deserved. Not only are the Home fans getting outsung, their team is getting outplayed.

A joy to behold. The new Baresi with some top notch defending as well

 

[Brinbe]

Need to be much better.

 

[Clegg]

We really need a new midfield.

 

[Vivalaraza]

As expected really.

Bilbao deserved that. Not sure how Fergie thought he'd get away with that CM.

 

[gurasa]

Well deserved goal. Great fans. Sexy jersey.

2nd half should be fun to watch.

 

[Rad-]

Llorente 1-1

Jones's reaction to the goal pretty much tells the story. He looks like he doesn't care, just turns away. I don't think United has the motivation for this, like Bilbao has.

Also Evra has been horrible again. I can't believe a player of his experience is out of position so many times per match.

 

[K1LLER7]

Evra, park and jones off for nani, ando and fabio. We need a goal maybe 2 atleast

 

[Jezabel]

Deserved Goal by Bilbao, looking very uninspired in midfield

 

[Fur_Q]

Jesus you lot are hilarious it's half time. I've seen enough of the scum to know, never write them off. It's never over at the swamp yooonited will come out all guns blazing me reckons.

 

[Meus Renaissance]

I'm actually surprised by the gap in technique/skill with the ball between the two sides.

 

[Ushojax]

Bilbao have been superior in every area. Should have scored 3 and had a penalty as well. United were crap against Spurs, only now Ferdinand isn't there to redeem that shitty defense.

 

[mocolostrocolos]

Bilbao has serious chances of winning Europa League if they keep this level of play.

 

[LabouredSubterfuge]

lol

 

[Messi]

Bielsa is awesome, love Bilbao *please let us have the copa

 

[Santiako]

Bielsa showing he's the best coach of the world right now.

 

[Wilbur]

I'm actually surprised by the gap in technique/skill with the ball between the two sides.

Our only cultured players are Nani, Berba and Rooney really. Giggs has been very good but our whole back four including Jones rely on pace and pace alone. Park is industrial, Hernandez isn't a ball player.

 

[FootballFan]

Well deserved goal. Great fans. Sexy jersey.

2nd half should be fun to watch.

Dat jersey. Its real nice looking.

 

[Salazar]

I'm actually surprised by the gap in technique/skill with the ball between the two sides.

Well, it would be pretty much the same story with other English sides of your choice. That's some consolation.

We need to sub on Rio and Carrick.

 

[Fantomex]

Guys can you help me out? I'm on the UEFA site and can't find when Liverpool play this week.

 

[WJD]

I shudder every time the ball drops in the middle of the park because I know we'll have no one in that area to pick it up/retain it.

It just shouldn't be that way for a Man United team.

I reiterate: we're shite.

 

[SunhiLegend]

Bielsa is awesome, love Bilbao *please let us have the copa

Oh shit, forgot Barca play them in the Copa final.

 

[Inversive]

I shudder every time the ball drops in the middle of the park because I know we'll have no one. That area to pick it up/retain it.

It just shouldn't be that way for a Man United team.

I reiterate: we're shite.

We really need a world class CM, it's been obvious for ages. I can't believe Fergie hasn't brought in anyone yet.

 

[Meus Renaissance]

Well, it would be pretty much the same story with other English sides of your choice. That's some consolation.

I agree. Says something about our national game. I remember a quote by Xavi a few months ago where he said "In England, when the defender hoof the ball out of play the crowd cheer him, but that wouldn't be the case back at home with our crowd"

It's amazing that we're only 2 points off top of the table.

How shite must everyone else be? I'm not even trolling.

The PL is all over the place this year

 

[elsk]

It's kind of funny how the english fans can only discover foreign players when they trash their teams

 

[cartoon_soldier]

It's amazing that we're only 2 points off top of the table.

They aren't shit, we are just better at grinding out victories, late victories, etc. We still have the belief thanks to SAF.

I think a few months back I read an article on BBC, take the same players and give it another manager/club and we would be mid table.

 

[Wilbur]

Right.

 

[doicare]

Considering Manchester United are missing half their first choice team and are playing 3rd and 4th choice players in their place instead of 2nd choice players, the result so far's not bad. I would expect United to field a much stronger side in the second leg.

 

[Stimpy]

That's not true we also discover them when Real or Barcelona play them

 

[Willkiller]

This week? Maybe next year if they're lucky.

 

[ShogunX]

Yes lets continue to post shite.

 

[Salazar]

Liverpool are quietly amazing.

 

[Bo-Locks]

Bilbao have been superior in every area. Should have scored 3 and had a penalty as well. United were crap against Spurs, only now Ferdinand isn't there to redeem that shitty defense.

The defence is (mostly) fine, it's the midfield where we get completely bossed by inferior teams, like Spurs etc. Considering Ferdinand has come under so much shit the last few weeks/months, I'm surprised at that comment, too.

If only we had a young, dynamic midfielder...

 

[Clegg]

They aren't shit, we are just better at grinding out victories, late victories, etc. We still have the belief thanks to SAF.

United have some very good players. I think they'd still be a top 4 team even without SAF.

I doubt we'd be challenging for the league though.

 

[Fantomex]

Yes lets continue to post shite.

Awesome, so I guess we won't be seeing posts from you for a bit?

 

[Wilbur]

PLEASE SHUT UP

Tell em' homie.

Yes, that's the amazing side of Manchester United. They're actually a team, unlike a lot of other "top teams"... Barcelona is the only big side I can see as a "complete" team too, they have average players in a few spots but they still look as top class because they're playing as a unity.

 

[ShogunX]

It's amazing that we're only 2 points off top of the table.

The PL is all over the place this year

Most of the bigger teams are in a transitional period with new players being bedded in along with the older more established faces not being as influential as they have been in the past.

Will probably take a couple of seasons before the BPL is back amongst the best.

Awesome, so I guess we won't be seeing posts from you for a bit?

 

[Stimpy]

Awesome, so I guess we won't be seeing posts from you for a bit?

So you're saying you think he only posts none shite stuff, nice of you to compliment him like that.

 

[Wilbur]

No one is a third choice in this team because we always rotate. Park is probably the nearest to third choice but that makes him sound like an awful last resort.

Anyway, we need two to be confident at San Mames.

And if not you'll post another bullshit injury table yes?
