So which one are you? 1) Lets smash them 0-4 so the tie is over. 2) Score at least 1 and FFS don't concede in the last minute you dickheads! Either way I'm looking forward to tonight. Should be a humdinger hopefully. Casemiro back. Will we see Sancho finally?
Sancho has already been stated as not playing in this. Maybe he'll play cup at the weekend? It'll be good to have him back. If we can put a few in tonight then why not, put the tie to bed if possible. There are a lot of cup games on the horizon and the squad will need to be fully used. Bar McTominay, hopefully. Hopefully his non performance on Sunday is the final nail in his bang average coffin.
Agreed, I once had high hopes for McT but he's garbage. He needs to go. There's a few there I think that Ten Hag is making the best of, even though they're not good enough. And that's a credit to him considering the performance and results he's achieving from them. But you know that's not doing well, it's 'par for the course' apparently. No reason why we can't win this comfortably. Play the strongest line up, get a couple of goals cushion and rest a few for the home game when the crowd will be behind them.
Strong line up. The usual you'd expect but no Shaw or Maguire (not even on the bench). Malacia at LB. Wout up front again. Casemiro back!
Seems he's off, could even be as soon as this window? Personally, I think he should stay. At the very least he's back up for Varane, who could be injured soon. At best, he replaces Varane in the side if he battles for it. He'll have to be replaced so may as well see the season out.
Yeh I don't get it either. There's got to be more to it. Once he starts playing Shaw there ahead of him, the writing's on the wall. He should definitely stay for this season. And be starting certain games imo.
Nice goal, they just can't stop him. Fed by a simple pass from Casemiro that McTom would have just given to an opponent.
It smacks of complacency. And that can ruin the drive and rhythm of our play. We can't just expect to win.
I can't believe from such a great start we've just gone off the boil. Allowed Forest back into the game and let them grow in confidence.
0-2 Wout HT Some of our players need to fix up. Bruno has been shocking. I genuinely think he expected just to turn up and have an easy game. Sort yourself out ffs, you're the captain.
