If Greenwood starts put me in the “irrational romantic” camp who thinks we drill PSG tonight.

It’s a fun thing to imagine.

 

[UncleBob]

Because our attacking gameplay will improve. They may interchange flanks easily as well.

Anyhow, for almost any attacking superstar 17 is almost late to make a debut - as such, starting Greenwood in a game of this importance may show a lot.

Besides, element of surprise here - nobody knows how he plays, PSG defence including. We don’t have much to lose to not take any risks tonight - it’s not starting an inexperienced defender what usually costs goals

If it will improve, why haven't we played him in any other matches ?

Arguing that it's good because it's an element of surprise is a bit daft tbh, it's not like we're going to a village in the amazon and show them electricity for the first time.

 

[Striker10]

A game with an eye to the future. It's a real shame we conceded that second goal but who knows? Maybe we'll get a decent ref in Europe for once. I doubt it but it's better to accept we're out and then look to give a good account of ourselves. When and if we do that, we have a chance. We need everything to go our way of course but a great opportunity for some and it may be too soon for them - but we'll see. We still have to defend properly. Something we didn't do in the first leg.

He was injured for a few weeks lately, maybe this is why. Also understandably Ole had to provide team’s highest earner chances to prove his wage.

 

[Vintagered]

Never felt so excited about a game where we are expected to lose.

but remembering similar , certainly in the domestic league ,where we have been able to magic a result.

I'm sure the lads will do United proud regardless of the outcome.

Same. At least we'll have a plan.

He's been injured and only turned 17 in October.

Expecting him to do much tonight against a team this good is probably being optimistic but I genuinely think he'd offer more than Sanchez would have. He's extremely well rounded for his age and so two footed he's very hard to predict. I think he'll make the step up to senior football without much fuss. That's no something I say very often about young players.

If Greenwood starts I think I might create an Ole ****

 

[shamans]

Start Greenwood and Gomes!

 

[Rozay]

Greenwood is due to go to school tomorrow but he’s with the squad. If they’re pulling him out of school to go to France then..... who knows?

He’s 17, and has a full-time job.

 

[Siorac]

Correct!
We came back from 2-0 down under Moyes against Olympiakos (RVP Hattrick). It's just that its never been done when you've lost your home leg.

Although Juventus got really close last year to overturn a three-goal lead away from home.

 

[VanGaalyTime]

Rumours of Greenwood starting?

Saw a few tweets

Yeah seeing/hearing similar. I'd wait to get excited though. That said, what a story.

 

[Hoof the ball]

He’s 17, and has a full-time job.

The twatty coach company. Nice.

 

[Alemar]

What is a better opportunity to make a senior debut for an attacker than away from home versus Tiago Silva and Marquinos, in a game where we need to score several?

And they're trying to kill us with the wing mirror.

 

[Class of 63]

Been doing breathing exercises all week in preparation for the palpitations that will surely come if we score first tonight....

 

[MUM]

I bet that mirror hurt !

 

[Random Task]

Start Greenwood and Gomes!

Might as well throw Chong in there as well.

Gomes - Mctominay - Periera

Chong - Greenwood - Rashford

Go to about 49 secs haha. Good to see Emilio Alvarez is on it tonight

 

[Samid]

Could be our last CL game this decade. Enjoy it lads.

 

[hungrywing]

Later on, when they make the movie about tonight, this scene'll be in there.

 

[PepsiCola]

[sugar_kane]

So much pressure from us to get the first goal from Ole but it doesn’t make a huge difference if they get one as we still need three to win.

 

[Drawfull]

Could be our last CL game this decade. Enjoy it lads.

feck I feel old. But we'll finish third in the league at worst, so...

 

[Cassidy]

Noooo!!!!!

 

[Cassidy]

Or win 2-0 in the 90 and take it to extra time, first goal is more about momentum

 

[Ban]

Let's do this!

 

[RedPed]

Cold light of day, we need to score at least 3 goals at Le PdP to have any chance. Can we do it? Don't know. So long as we don't get hammered and score at least 1 goal, I'll be happy though.

 

[Alemar]

Why no one believes in a clean sheet? Score two, concede zero, win on penalties )

 

[Samid]

September

Growing injury list and fixtures getting tougher.

 

[Raw]

I hope we don't concede early, it would kill the game off and my excitement would dissipate...unless we scored quickly after.

 

[kouroux]

My hope for tonight is that we keep the score under 5.

We don't want to embarrass them too much. We're nice guys deep down.

That's the spirit

 

[PlayerOne]

I hope we don't concede early, it would kill the game off and my excitement would dissipate...unless we scored quickly after.

While it would hurt us it doesn't change the game plan much really, we still need 3 goals.

 

[Sassy Colin]

I like the sign as they came down the ramp, which I would translate as "Dream bigger".

Works for me

 

[MrSingh2002]

If Ole even gets a win on the night today he should be announced as the new permanent manager tonight.

The fact we even give the team a slight chance with a depleted squad is testament to his performance so far.

Can you imagine against all the odds overturning the 0-2, and then getting beat on penalties

 

[Kostov]

Feck, I went with that team then switched with 4 at the back. Nonetheless I am pleased with that team.
