Zenit were 3-0 down vs Maccabi Tel-Aviv with 13 minutes to go, currently 3-4 up.
Dundalk seem to have secured a point away in the Netherlands. Full-strength United team a minute away from failing to do the same.

Was posting in the PL thread already, ManU were woeful.

Can't see de Boer lasting more than a couple of weeks at this rate. Inter losing 2-0 to Hapoel Beer Sheva at home.

^ lol just came looking for this thread to say "christ but inter look desperate". this is the first time i've seen them play since last Autumn/Xmas when they were winning a ton of games and it seemed like they might've got their shit together at last. showing nothing tonight.
You can already see where Saints next batch of big money sales are gonna come from. Hojbjerg looks very dynamic

somehow Saints contriving to fuck this up

can't see this man u team scoring again this side of christmas at this rate, what the fuck is this constipated louisball they're playing at the moment

United are terrible. they havent even created one chance

Brilliant, isn't it?

Shit match, three pretty beautiful goals

Sheer managerial genius by Mourinho to leave the bag o' shite on the field till the 89th minute.
― Millions of species Faye Dunaway (Tom D.), Thursday, 3 November 2016 19:53 (seven years ago) link
might have been a different story with valencia on instead of darmian, but that was such a shit performance
― Rae Kwoniff (NickB), Thursday, 3 November 2016 20:03 (seven years ago) link
The overwhelming shitness of United is slightly baffling, theres some good players there. So bad in midfield tonight too. Mkhitaryan so bad too when he came on
Xp Darmian not one of them obv
― Neptune Bingo (Michael B), Thursday, 3 November 2016 20:06 (seven years ago) link
I actually despise Darmian. A nothing player Bill
so many cowards in the team though
the mind reels at the thought of our midfield on the weekend with Pogba and Herrera out
― Number None, Thursday, 3 November 2016 20:17 (seven years ago) link
There's always Carrick but I guess fellaini will be recalled from the circus. Pisser that pereira is out on loan cos I thought he was tremendous. Wonder if Mou will ever give Tim fm some games?
― Rae Kwoniff (NickB), Thursday, 3 November 2016 20:45 (seven years ago) link
Memphis Depay still languishing there too
― Neptune Bingo (Michael B), Thursday, 3 November 2016 21:42 (seven years ago) link
bt sport commentator in soton/inter just used the word 'fascia'
― imago, Thursday, 3 November 2016 21:49 (seven years ago) link
i'm impressed, that's all
Watched Ajax tonight because fml. They cruised to a comfy 3-0 and got embarrassingly close to being held to a draw in the end, 3-2 to Celta de Vigo.
Kasper Dolberg tho, he's the real deal. What a gifted player. Get yer scouts to Amsterdam to scoop that kid up asap.
― Trump le Monde (Le Bateau Ivre), Thursday, 3 November 2016 21:57 (seven years ago) link
He can stay there imo, sadly I don't think he'll ever turn the corner at united. Always so tense when he comes on, nothing ever really works for him going forwards and he's a bit lazy tbh when it comes to tracking back. Memph needs to be cut loose and set free
― Rae Kwoniff (NickB), Thursday, 3 November 2016 21:58 (seven years ago) link

Memphis, Schneiderlin, Darmian, Fellaini, Rooney, all need to go
Zlatan was a mistake too
― Number None, Thursday, 3 November 2016 22:05 (seven years ago) link
Yep
― Rae Kwoniff (NickB), Thursday, 3 November 2016 22:14 (seven years ago) link
when he was signed I expected him to rotate with Rashford in the centre forward position. Which would have been fine, and offered some good attacking variation. Instead he's become the new undroppable and plays 90 minutes basially every game, and Rashford is shunted out wide even though we desperately need movement up front.
Made absolutely no sense to bring him on when Pogba got injured either, especially with Rooney also on the pitch. Spent most of the game strolling around the centre circle. I swear at one point Mata was playing as striker ffs
― Number None, Thursday, 3 November 2016 22:22 (seven years ago) link
and it was zlatan's foul in defence that gave away the free kick for the second goal iirc
― Rae Kwoniff (NickB), Thursday, 3 November 2016 22:37 (seven years ago) link
as if scholesy isn't loving this, deep down. if he could have been a pundit while he was still playing the hovis ad that is his subconscious would have found a way to criticise the latest version of himself.

Could tell from the run up he was not going to score.

It’s a shame. Frankfurt were the better team for most of the match. Some good last ditch defending from Chelsea though.

the defence is just not to move and rely on your reflexes though (which Ederson did in the Carabao Cup final)
