Midtjylland vs Manchester United (in the thinking man's European competition)

[Stevencc]

Give it Rash

Absolutely.

Hell of a pen, though.

 

[JimJams]

Shame Rashford didn't get the penalty, but understandable.

 

[Christian Slater]

The Miz gets sent off

 

[Christian Slater]

Deserved that.

 

[Stevencc]

That wasn't quite as comfortable as 5-1 suggests but we're through!

Great to see Rashford get a brace (could have been a hat-trick if he was allowed to take the penalty).

Depay was magic as he tends to be in the Europa League.

Here's hoping Martial isn't out for long.

 

[smat]

Here's hoping he's out for Sunday, at least.

Midtjylland's heads dropped after the third goal. Had been a good contest til then.

You're just riling up Big Rashford™ with comments like that.

Depay has looked good in a couple of games he's come on in recently but hasn't been consistant enough. great to see him and Lingard actually willing to run at players. Martial does too but everyone else always looks for the easy pass too often. Greta to see Herrera playing in centre mid with Schneiderlein i'd keep that partnership for a few games even when carrick isn't centre back

 

[Christian Slater]

He's no Rash in the pan. Watch out Arsenal.

 

[smat]

I call him Gashford. He's shit.

 

[DarkSithLord]

Absolutely.

Begs the question why wasnt he given the one in the first half?

 

[DarkSithLord]

Marcus Rasford was superb.

Depay was good but onch again on the most point the finishing touch/product just wasnt there.

The United penalty system works on missing. If you miss you go to the back of the queue.

 

[Christian Slater]

Hope we get Valencia or Liverpool in the next round.

Love how depay has finally added going outside the defender to his game, has been far too predictable in the past and guilty of being greedy but hopefully tonight is a sign of things to come.

Rashford, what a fucking debut. Showed no fear, constantly got in to good positions and showed why he was described as "explosive" by staff. Has the attributes to make a great forward.

Was impressed by Riley too, again was never daunted by the task at hand and combined well with Memphis on the left. Varella was good too.

This is our only ticket for CL next season and I'm just relieved to still be in the competition.

 

[DarkSithLord]

Can you draw British clubs in the next Round?

Ok Fair enough in that case.

Think so, in the CL it's anyone after the first knockout.

True. But there is an extra Knock Out Round in the Europa.. Not sure if that makes a difference or not. I guess we will find out for sure tomorrow.

It's unfamiliar territory.

Now that's what I call commentary.

Na we want a big club.

Minnows that you are.

5th minute of stoppage time against Arsenal. De Gea steps up to take the pen to win the game and Arsenal save it and Danny Welbeck (of course) scores a 90-yard match winner.

EDIT: God damn it, appears Steven made the same joke multiple times on the previous page. Fuck you Steven, you're going on my ignore list.

 

[silkyman]

Steven made the same joke multiple times.

That's not like him...

 

[Christian Slater]

You delivered the punchline to be fair.
