There's the magic from last season. Kane, Eriksen, and Dele all woke up. Son showing he belongs here. Lloris makes his return, Dembele is next. Davies is just as good as Rose. Janssen continues to impress and Sissoko showed flashes in his limited appearance.

 

Oh and haha gfy Arnautovic, diving #### got what he deserved

Of course Son does this right between the end of FIFA 16 and release of FIFA 17.  No in-form card for me.

Very happy with the result at Old Trafford... We came in there an absolutely dominated from the onset. Still succeptible to the counter and especially poor to regain shape after we conceded but other than that the win was well deserved. 

 

Pep won the tactical game by far. Mourinho tried to be too cute by starting Lingard and Mikky and that cost United the game (he probably should have subbed them off even sooner than half). Also United is wasting Pogba's talent as it is, overrated or just need time to settle?

 

All this without our best finisher Aguero. Our last pass wasn't the greatest this game and in the second half we could have hit on the counter more but KDB was gassed after an all world performance and Kelechi was subbed off early on so I guess that was to be expected.

 

Here's hoping we meet in cup play again rather than waiting until February -- was a great derby.

Balotelli... so much potential, unique combination of physicality and technicality to bad the mental aspect is just as important... Only 25 and seems like hes been around for 10 years. He played a stellar game in his debut for Nice and I hope he continues to do well this season,

Decent game from the gunners. Start was awful and opsina did fantastic keeping us in it. Giroud is a dumb@$$, like calm the f down you hurt your team when you do $*** like that. The announcer made me laugh , he made a bigger deal about arsenal losing giroud then he did about PSG losing Verratti. Verratti runs PSG, he is what makes them tick. His influence from the midfield is perhaps only rivaled by Iniesta and Modric. He is that good.

 

 

Edit: If Iwobi wants to stay in the lineup he has to finish those chances. I like him a lot, but in games against europe's best he HAS TO FINISH.

Legia is probably the worst CL team I have seen in years. Looked like they weren't even trying in defense at times. 6 goals, 6 different scorers for us tonight.

 

Gladbach needs to get rid of Schubert. He relies too much on man defending. Can't do that against world class players.

 

Real turning the game around in (more or less) stoppage time. I have absolutely nothing to say to that.

Celtic says hi.

 

Although at least we're good at home.
