Fair results, but considering Milan is also ridled with injures and their main concern is and will be League. They really showed up and gave a good match. Definetly second leg will be a blast and there they will go all out.

Milan's main concern is and always will be Europe mate.

That's where they pride themselves and where they belong.

I get that but they are in the same position as us really. Should be in the Champions League. They are in a very good league position to secure that next season. So will they sacrifice the extr games to concentrate on the league. Exactly the same position I see us in now. Unless we are guarenteed to win the Europa, I'd rather see us go out now and secure CL next season

Went through some talks from milan fans and the upset that they can do in the League tops EL a bit(also considering how many injuries they have) .
Sure any cup win is amazing and they would take any of them. Can be sure they will fight hard for EL

I can appreciate that but I'd take a different view as I personally don't believe in sacrificing/prioritising either.

You take each next game as the most important game and see where you end up. That's the way it's always been and always should be to me.

As a fan I'd love us to go all out for both. As it should be. But I dont think we can now in the real world. It was easy for us 20 years ago. We was top 2 guarenteed every season. With the odd 3rd but that still guarenteed CL football so as long as that 3rd was an exception and not a rule it was ok. Football has changed now. Since they restructured the payments down the league the gap is closing. The top 4 is now a top 6. And even the top 6 varies year on year. I called it as soon as thet changed the rules with the money. Spreading the money out will give the rest more money to catch up and they are. Its great for football. But now it means that everyone needs to chase even more money. Which is CL. So sometimes that means sacrificing certain games. We have slipped a long way, and we need to be in the CL consistently to attract players and push on. As a fan I dont like it, but it needs to be done.
 
Greenwood, James, Diallo front three on Sunday then lol. With Hugill, McNiell, Shortire our attacking options on the bench
 
Our midfield is absolute dire, honestly where the **** is Donny? There has been no mention of what his injury even is to my knowledge.

What makes all this worse though is that it doesn't matter, Ole would still have kept him on the bench yesterday.

Kessie was good to watch for Milan.

He’s got a calf strain. Should be back next week. I knew those 2 last night would be ***** as they always are together. Can’t blame him for rotating but was a poor watch lol. Injuries piling up now unfortunately. Just gotta grind out results till we get some back.

Or Pogba for that matter (reluctantly).

The more pertinent question would be just why the F you bought him with absolutely zero idea of how to play him or where he fits in?

It'll be interesting to see if this ridiculous scatter gun approach of still overpaying just for the sake of a big name actually changes with the, ahem, 'restructure?'
 
Good 0-0 draw for the u23s especially after being down to 10 after 5 mins and about 13 players missing. Caicedo who we was linked with played for them. Was absolutely *****.

@sistoney67
Talks underway between @ManUtd + Eric Bailly over new deal. OGS: "We have started talking. Eric is keeping fitter for longer + I have been very happy with him. His playing style has made him miss too many game. 100 games is not enough for the period that he has been here. We are changing things with him."
 
Utd 1-0 up just before half time. Absolute banger from Noam Emeran. Was one heck of a scuffle in the Utd box about 5 players booked lol.
 
Wow that second half was a demolition and some pure football ***! 6-0 in the end. Emeran and Garnacho with 2 each then Hoogerwerf and McNeil with one a piece. Hansen Aaroen looks and plays like and Odegaard clone


Outstanding performance. Emeran, Hoogewerf and Hansen-Aaroen completely ran the show, Hansen-Aaroen in particular was a cut above, looks an excellent talent. With a little bit of end product Hoogewerf could be a great player. McNeill and Garnacho both played really well, on a different day McNeill has a hat trick. I'm really liking the look of McNeill so far.

Little shout out to Bjorn hardley and 15 year old Louis Jackson who swept up everything in our half all game, their distribution was excellent. Everyone played very well today, a very enjoyable team performance.

Yes lol. Tbh our u18s are head and shoulders talent wise I would say of just about anything else at that age group. Even at U23s if everyone is available. Now we need to start seeing some of them come through.
