Think he came on vs Derby when Romero lost his head and got sent off.Has Lee Grant actually played for us in a competitive match ?

Flahertys Irish pub in the placa de joaquim xirau. Best sports bar in barcelonaOff to Barcelona today. Anyplace I can watch the game??
Preferably around La Rambla Catalonya...
I got 9/11 as well. Surprised to see Garner start but pleasedIf it makes you feel better, I got 9 points. I had Greenwood/Fred instead of Garner/Maguire.
This is a good thing.Don't see the point in playing Mata. If you're going to play Lingard may as well play him as the #10, can press similarly to Pereira. Would have had Greenwood as straight swap for James. Can only guess he wanted more experience in side, to cover for experimenting with Garner and Williams.
Very interested to see how Garner and McTominay get on together as I see that as our future midfield. And Williams seems well suited to a wingback role, more so than Shaw.
Hadn't expected to see the 3-4-3 again so soon, perhaps it is a switch away from 4-2-3-1. Guess the coaches took the international time to take stock and try something else to turn results around.
I didn't listen to/watch it.Maguire?! He was the only outfielder I had 100 % nailed down to start after the presser yesterday.
Ask again closer to kick off.havent seen anyone ask yet but can someone pm a stream? Need something non reddit thanks to stupid work haha.
Neither did I but he was there in suit and tie!I didn't listen to/watch it.
A kind of sofa without the back support. But that’s not important right now.What's the bench?
It worked well against our 4-3-3 because you could match up to our formation. Your back three vs our front three, your WB's vs our full backs, your midfield three vs ours & our back two vs your front two.I think it has potential to be honest. It seems like a formation that can utilize the strengths that we have and protect us in other areas too. I'm intrigued to see if it works tonight.
Yeah I've just noticed. Would probably have gone for a back three if I had seen that. Doubt I'd have got 10 though.Neither did I but he was there in suit and tie!
Starting 11
3-5-2
Romero
Wan Bissaka
Maguire (C)
Jones
Rojo
Williams
McTominay
Garner
Mata
Lingard
Martial
3-5-2 or 3-4-1-2. Williams and AWB on the edges will keep the ball towards the center, for the few times Partizan can break through McT/Garner and press Maguire, DeGea, and Co. This will give also Ole five attacking options in the middle offensively. Mata can distribute the ball (and he can do that, if nothing else) to Martial and Lingard, who play a bit wide, or he can run in for service from any of the four midfielders.Don't like the formation if it is a 5-3-2.
Pretty sure it's a 442Anyone know what formation Partizan usually play?
I don't think he is good enough defensively to be a rb for a top club.Dalot is not A WB.
If the remaining squad manages to play around Mata and Lingard - involving them as little as possible - we might actually get a few chances with this lineup. If these are heavily involved though and history is anything to go by - they'll probably do a better job at breaking up our attack than the opposition defenders could ever hope for. I hope they prove me wrong of course - really doThought tonight might be the first time since the season opener, where we manage to score more than one goal. Then I saw the line-up.
What screen?Damning stats on the screen. Our best results have been when we don't have the ball.
Makes total sense though. Only Martial and Pogba are actually good on the ball and can do something with it.Damning stats on the screen. Our best results have been when we don't have the ball.
No surprise at all. We are a counterattacking team who look mediocre against an organized defenseDamning stats on the screen. Our best results have been when we don't have the ball.
