Hard to believe that we'll probably go out of the CL when we have dominated all games expect in Turkey. Make no mistake we have been a much better side than PSG tonight apart from the first 15 minutes. Really hard to take to be honest but hopefully we can get a result in Germany. By the way PSG are an absolute disgrace of a team of divers, its incredible.
Champions League | Matchday 6

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik and Imran hold a long overdue conversation about United's awful league form with 1 win in 7. They discuss a disappointing draw at Bournemouth, a not so disappointing draw against Liverpool and a crushing defeat at Chelsea - Is time nearly over for Erik Ten Hag?
Then in a special second half of the pod, Nik welcomes Natalie ( https://twitter.com/natalie_17) to discuss the fortunes of Manchester United Women as they booked a place in the FA Cup Final after a historic first ever win vs. Chelsea.
That cut back to Neymar put Maguire right on his arse not even aware of Neymar coming in.
Still think United will win in Germany.
Probably not but it would be lovely. Then they all draw 0-0.
This was is completely on Ole and I support him.
Absolutely appalling game management. Fred should have been subbed and that look on Ole's face knows it.

Me too, Leipzig can't be trusted. They could be 2-0 until 80th minute and still implode.
Finally someone shows how to beat Seville. Target man.
Remarkable game, 4 0 away to Seville, giroud with a perfect hatrick and a penalty. Having no fans must have helped.
Fine wine footballer, got better with age. Definitely our best finisher.

Dortmund had to hang in on the end to get that 1-1. They really can't manage a game, they were better up until that stupid penalty by Schulz and then completely lost control.
Burki their man of the match by far. Some great saves towards the end. Dortmund end up qualifying, still are not guaranteed top spot.

We're a bunch of game raisers. We had our cup final in Paris, but we throw it all away when it really matters. Sad to see what we've become.
Home wins have gone right out the window without fans in CL. That's Liverpool/Atalanta away wins in both. Borussia/Inter away wins in both. PSG/United away wins in both. Shaktar at Real.. anyone else?
I don't think we are to be honest. I think we are every bit as good as PSG when we play at our best but we simply haven't learned how to do it every week. Game raisers implies that we are less than other teams but we simply aren't. For instance tonight we more than matched PSG despite the fact we didn't exactly play well ourselves. If we were game raisers then we would have played the game of our lives but honestly we were just a very good team who played ok against another very good team who played ok themselves. In a 'game raising' team Martial doesn't miss that chance.
Poor from Ole, leaving Fred on. But have to blame Martial for the result. Can’t be missing those at this level.
Did he score 4 though. :0)
4 goals against Sevilla.
We huff and puff against Sevilla and struggle with all their diving, crying and imaginary card waving.
Chelsea did well to fight against all this nonsense.

I hate PSG so much. The only reason they were still in this is because that ref and the useless VAR awarded them a penalty vs Leipzig for that Di Maria dive. They just always seem to get away with stuff despite being such a despicable club.
They are the absolute masters of the dark arts and we were bloody stupid enough to fall for their tricks
To win 4-0 at Sevilla and to have 13 points with a goal-difference of 13-1 is very impressive in a group with Sevilla, Rennes and Krasnodar.

I'm glad group B and H are on two different days.
Fully expecting United to get the job done tonight. Normally English sides do in these scenarios. We've been in that position in each of the last three seasons going into matchday 6 and made it through.
If they're going to do Leipzig I hope they get it done early and rest players for City on Saturday.
Ajax v Atalanta could be a good watch. Winner takes all.
If anyone guesses the Chelsea starting XI in the next 45 minutes, I'll give them a special prize.
A bit annoying that Messi and Ronaldo meet for maybe the last time at the same time as the United match..
Mendy, James, Zouma, Silva, Chillwell, Kovaic, Jorginho, Kante, Havertz, Abraham, Pulisic
Stopped reading at the first name. Kepa is starting himself tonight.
I'll have a go!
Kepa - Azpilicueta Christensen Rüdiger Emerson - Kovacic Gilmour Jorginho - Anjorin Abraham Pulisic
Kepa, Emerson, Tomori, Christensen, Azpilicueta, Jorginho, Anjorin, Gilmour, Hudson-Odoi, Havertz, Abraham
We have heard that Kepa and Gilmour are starting from the press conference. With both Ziyech and CHO out with hamstring injuries, we really should sit Pulisic.
And there is no way he’ll put out such a strong team in a dead rubber game against Championship relegation level fodder.
Hope I get it right now just to prove you two wrong
Did I miss something? Has COVID been cured in Russia? It’s either that or basically a family of 200 people in close proximity
This is my (slightly educated because I know what the travelling squad is) guess
Kepa
Azpi Tomori Christensen Emerson
Gilmour Jorginho Kovacic
Havertz Tammy Anjorin

Lazio 2-1 Brugge
Zenit 1-0 Dortmund currently
Be happy if things stay this way. If we qualify (big if of course), at least we can hope to get Lazio as I’m certain the highest we can get tonight is 2nd.

It is raining a bit in Rome.
That rain in Rome 
This Dortmund group must be the dream group to be paired with. Imagine finishing second then drawing Lazio!
I was one out!
