I don't think it's fair to call him a prospect anymore, that's what he was at Hoffenheim. The RB Leipzig version is a young elite coach.
Yeah that's a fair point. Been very impressed with how well drilled this Leipzeig team are.

It's amazing how shit spurs are, they don't even try anymore
Their defence has fallen apart while Kane and Son carries the attack.
Its not a lack of trying, they just arent good enough. They cant go at teams because the cutting edge isnt there and cant lark buses cause theyre shit.

Even Lloretne would've been useful for Spurs here, at least they'd have someone holding the ball up / could use the long ball.

They're playing this weird formation where Moura is playing as a striker.. he's a great dribbler, get him out wide.

Ref wasn't even giving a free kick until he started screaming and then he gives a yellow card :lol:

I'm weirdly impressed with their throw ins! Don't think I've ever thought that about a team before!

Football games behind closed doors look utterly ridiculous.

It’s all sort of anti climatic now European football knowing that it’s very likely games will be played behind closed doors or postponed

We should spank spurs. But its typical how crap they're playing and the run that we are on, that we'll somehow lose.

From here to there
I think the current United team and manager recently have earned a bit of faith from our own fans.

We've every chance of winning on Sunday and it's not wrong to say so.

Dier plays like a Rubgy player playing football

Also Sessengon is absolute wank. Has nothing good going for him other than he can finish, which is completely useless anywhere other than as a striker.

Really glad neither play for us.

Unless De Gea decides to throw the ball into his own net again I can see us keeping them at bay pretty easily. It’s whether or not we can break them down I guess, you know Jose is going to want to play on the counter as well. We struggle breaking down Brighton when they sit deep, can we do it against better defenders? I can see it being a drab game tbh.
