Ohanzee Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 Should we really get carried away by this? :confused: It's Club Brugge, and according to the Norwegian commentator they are missing like 9 first team players as well. Not sure if they are all actually first choice players, but he's mentioned it in both legs. It's great to watch, but they are a complete mess now. Helps that our players finally are making runs off the ball though. And not just one at a time either. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ohanzee Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 Maybe excited is a better term than carried away. Guess I'm cautiously excited to. If we do anything similar attacking wise against Swansea I'll consider getting excited. Still think we need another attacker or two. And a central defender, but I guess that's not happening.

roseboy64 Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 I saw the press conference, and he definitely meant up front as 9/10. Even made a joke about it, sort of. Don't disagree with him either. As he implied, we have better options in CM now, and Fellaini is more useful to us up front than in central midfield. Really hope DDG will stay, but can't shake the feeling that we're not playing him because he's gone, and if we did in the CL qualifiers he'd be CL-tied if we go through (think that's how it works). As good as our transfer business has been so far (it really has been good), this would mean losing the only world class players in the team in the same window in DDG and di Maria. Two steps forward and two back? Playing against Brugge wouldn't have cup-tied De Gea. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pangaea Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 Playing against Brugge wouldn't have cup-tied De Gea. From what I read way back, players who played in the qualifier for teams that got through, would be cup tied, but not if they played for teams that didn't get through. Sounds a bit bonkers. but I wouldn't put it past the schmucks in charge. What I read could be wrong ofc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rio_V Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 Well, that was a lot of fun to watch. - Question for LVG: Do we look more attacking with Januzaj or Herrera in the 10? Really? Really???? - It might not be Chelsea, but the rumors of Rooney's demise have been greatly exaggerated. - Memphis is an interesting balance of sublime and car wreck. - Luke Shaw was indominatable. - I like Daly Blind, but I want to appreciate him for his versatility, not as one of our back two starters. - The pass to Herrera was just one little glimpse of Schweinsteiger's class. What a pleasure to watch him today. Please stay healthy. - Romero didn't have to do much, but he did it well again. - Chicha may have been using the wrong studs....or feet... - Whatever group we end up in isn't going to be happy.

CPS Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 - Romero didn't have to do much, but he did it well again. City centre pub for the Spurs game, standing at the bar. A genius was spouting off about this 'unknown' goalie and how much he didn't rate him. First question to him was "ever seen him play?", the reply was "don't need to mate, sh!te". "You don't watch World Cup finals then?", "Nah, so fuking what? What's your problem?" I take issue with the maxim that everyone is entitled to their opinion.

pago Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 What pot are we likely to be in for the proper draw? Will not being in last season screw us over at all? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Razzler Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 A lot of good teams in Pot 2, I think it's the better place to be. 3 'weak' (OMG how can you say they're weak!!!) teams in the top pot you can draw compared to Chelsea, for instance, Valencia, Leverkusen and Porto the 'weakest' they can draw from pot 2. Prefer PSV, Benfica or Zenit really, wouldn't you? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harryseaess Posted August 27, 2015 Author Share Posted August 27, 2015 Good performance last night v a poor Brugge team. As much as I dislike him I'm glad Rooney got a few goals, can only be good for his confidence, one for him for Swansea and then his season could really kick start. That ball from Basti Hopefully we get a good draw today. One of the weaker teams from Pot 1 would be nice. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ham_aka_stam Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 Was a great game to watch, and the attack is starting to look like it has hints of our previous fluid moves in it, but we let that poor Brugge team get far too close to scoring IMO. A bit of complacency maybe, will need to be careful about that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
adhikapp Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 The common denominator in the game that disappointed vs Newcastle and the one that impressed against Brugge = Ander Herrera. He should start at #10 ahead of Januzaj, or at least in midfield alongside Carrick/Schmidfielders. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timmy Howard Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 Let's not get too carried away, Brugge had all but given up and weren't even tracking back. The difference when the ineffective Januzaj went off is undeniable though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

craigcwwe Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 Good win and performance last night, would have been even better if not for Hernandez. Herrera is class, moreso as a no.10 Don't think Januzaj will be starting for any while, not done much in his starts this season. What a pass from Basti. Rooney!!! Boy did he need those goals, should send him on a run now, hopefully. Its awesome to once again have two very good, compotent full backs, new Nev and Evra? Most likely in time.

Torminator Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 I was really impressed with Shaw yesterday. Its hard to play with someone like Depay in front of you since overlapping wont do you any good when someone cuts inside and always keeps te ball. So it was a good choice to defend higher up and just hand over the ball to midfielders or Depay. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
