Really happy, both were very good today. But can you explain why Ole still playing McFred constantly to protect them?So that's 1 goal we've conceded (Hendersons blunder) in around 700 minutes. Maguire and Lindelof don't get enough respect for that.

My bad. Yep just seen it again, apologies to Lindelof.That was Luke Shaw, not Lindelöf.
they have done well. Still feel a little nervous with them, but much improved.As an aside note, does anyone else think he, Maguire and Henderson, barring the first leg against Milan, have been great over the last month or so? Our defence looks rock solid again.
Where does that come from though? I'm genuinely curious because for some time now our defense has been rock solid.they have done well. Still feel a little nervous with them, but much improved.
I don't. Henderson coming off his line has given me so much more faith in this defence.they have done well. Still feel a little nervous with them, but much improved.
im certainty not convinced by Henderson’s handling.Where does that come from though? I'm genuinely curious because for some time now our defense has been rock solid.
I'm a big critic of him but they have been very good. Consistency of selection, including full backs is a big plus.As an aside note, does anyone else think he, Maguire and Henderson, barring the first leg against Milan, have been great over the last month or so? Our defence looks rock solid again.
Eric Bailly played in the first leg. Lindelöf was on the bench.As an aside note, does anyone else think he, Maguire and Henderson, barring the first leg against Milan, have been great over the last month or so? Our defence looks rock solid again.
There were periods last season when this was the case - we finished last season quite well, although the Sevilla game was terrible.Outstanding again. Him and Maguire seem to look like a defensive pair all of a sudden
I'm aware. That comment was specifically about Henderson.Eric Bailly played in the first leg. Lindelöf was on the bench.
I think it’s in part down to how successful we were. Vidic And Rio were unreal; but they were involved in some howlers tooThere were periods last season when this was the case - we finished last season quite well, although the Sevilla game was terrible.
We were absolutely spoilt with Rio and Vidic, and I don't think our current defenders are at that level.
I just can't remember Rio or Vidic being criticised in their pomp but Maguire and Lindelof get battered almost every week
Think that was Maguire actually. If we are thinking about the same incident.Very good game. Very two important interceptions too. I think he got beaten by Zlatan once in the middle of the pitch but Zlatan would beat most defenders in the air 9 times out of 10.
This is why I feel if we replace Fred or McTominay and get a CF we can be in business and compete with city.
yes you are right. I had a look at it again. It was Maguire and not Lindelof. Victor was immense tonight and my worries about Ibra and him came to nothing. It must be good news for Sweden too. I am sure that if we had better DMs the back 4 will play better. Having Hendo behind him must be also comforting.Think that was Maguire actually. If we are thinking about the same incident.
