I know rightThe more positivity I see around the lineup, the less confident I am. Seen this before.
Totally agree and loving the line up front. Just sell Fred in summer and it's happy days.... Along with a win tonite of course.So refreshing to not see Fred in the lineup, especially on an occasion like this.
Probably because he didn't start alongside Mctominay and in front of a lindelof-bailly CB pairing? Mctominay is slow to move so may not always give Pogba a quick outlet for a pass. And when Pogba is made to dither, he does, at times, end up losing the ball.Pogba started games in CM in the world cup and in the final itself and was outstanding. Not sure why people are craping themselves over this
ThanksYeah, here’s the link.
It's not about Spain but the fact that Villarreal aren't qualified for CL. If they miss out then that extra spot goes to 3rd placed team in the 5th best league (France in this case).Just saw this now. What a funny sub plot
But why do France lose a spot if Spain get an extra CL team? I can’t work it out. Is it coefficient?
Nice positive energy love it.Pogba will probably give away at least one goal. We'll need the forwards to score 2 or more.
My first thought too.Pogba wants to help us win the Premier League, going nowhere
Thanks for clearing that up. Do you know if Monaco would get even a qualifying spot if Villarreal win?It's not about Spain but the fact that Villarreal aren't qualified for CL. If they miss out then that extra spot goes to 3rd placed team in the 5th best league (France in this case).
So you want McFred?Bailly in defence and Pogba in midfield obviously same as everyone else has said
Monaco enter 3rd qualifying round if Villarreal win. They'll qualify directly if we win.Thanks for clearing that up. Do you know if Monaco would get even a qualifying spot if Villarreal win?
Also how tired must Ole be when every first question is about his goal, not about the current team and the EL.No matter what, Paul Pogba is always the main focus.
What gives you that impression, especially given that Ole has gone with a 4231 for the majority of the season?Looking at our lineup tonight, I can't see anything other than a 4-3-3?
He is our biggest (costliest) star.No matter what, Paul Pogba is always the main focus.
Could he be be carrying a bit of a knock?No Fred? Madness.
Yes Monaco will be in the qualifying rounds for next season's champions league if we don't win.Thanks for clearing that up. Do you know if Monaco would get even a qualifying spot if Villarreal win?
Not, too flat. In fact, I think it'll probably go more to a 5-2-3. Pogba and Bruno aren't going to stay to either side of McTominay, and he'll tend more towards the defensive line.Looking at our lineup tonight, I can't see anything other than a flat 4-3-3.
Am I wrong?
