    It's really just about the result, I don't care how we get there. But, notwithstanding that, we really haven't played well and frankly I feel like it's self inflicted.
     
    I'm not a big fan of this sitting back business. You got a sense that if we pressed them a little bit, we'd be able to win the ball back and attack them quickly on the counter. But we seem too happy to sit back and watch them pass the ball around our box and it very nearly cost us.

    We need another goal.
     
    adequate first half thats about it, we got the goal we needed, but some of out play has be horrible, Blind has been poor , has Mikh even touched the ball yet. Pogba and Rashford have been decent,
    Have you watched the first half?! Mikhtaryan has been fine.

    Christ.
     
    I can cope with sitting back, so long as we counter with effectiveness. But we're barely stringing any passes together.
     
    Take Blind off at half time. He's a disaster waiting to happen tonight.

    Other than that I'm happy with the first half. Very tactical performance so far, which is to be expected in a semi-final.
     
    There is absolutely no attacking support from Darmian down the left.

    We are probably going to have to see them score to fully wake us up. This defend defend defend bollocks is annoying from Mourinho.
     
    Don't think we played well at all.

    But up 1-0. Hopefully we perform better in the 2nd half.
     
    Poor despite the goal. I can't stand this useless tactic of sitting back. Vigo are having us on shots and possession and we are supposed to be at home.
    This is it. The sitting back against Celta at home makes zero sense to me. We are supposed to be one of the giants of the game and we play like minnows against a team which has Aspas as their lead scorer.
     
    Average first half.

    Blind and Darmian are terrible. Fellaini away from the goal has been terrible and the midfield is easily penetrated and lose the possession. Rashford and Mikhi are great.

    Need a second goal ASAP.
     
    If Ajax get the half-chances that Celta is getting, they would punish us. We don't look very solid. All this rest hasn't helped our defenders much.
     
    But we aren't against a decent side, we are against a side we regularly catching in the counter attack, hence the tactic?

    I can appreciate that, I just see us doing this against every side we play when we go 1-0 up. A huge reason for the amount of draws this season (together with missed chances, but that's a bad excuse).

    Thought Mhiki did quite welll for about 25 mins. Largely anonymous after that though. Some mouth watering runs in there he is sillllky when he gets going!
     
    Some of you are never, ever happy.

    At 90 minutes if we have won no one will give a shit about the performance and will be happy with the win.

    During the game, people complain that we aren't playing well because of the fear and risk of letting Celta back in.

    Not that difficult to understand really, and reasonable.
