Leipzig bottling this so predictable.
Champions League | Matchday 6
- Thread starter Samid
- Start date

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?
United so good they spot their opponents 60 minutes before starting to play for real 
Feck, we won't be qualified before playing the game.
Solskjaer getting away with it every week at the moment. Sends his team out half asleep and then they bail him out.
Crazy. Can see United snatching a draw.
It doesn't look like the PSG game is going ahead right?
Circus of fools in leipzig
Leipzig have never looked solid in this game. United always had a chance of scoring a few.
It's a game of mistakes
This is so intense, I love it.
Four mintues pretty low with all the subs and goals.
Fancy United to get another if they get corner or FK round the box so Leipzig need to avoid doing that.

Well this guy is a twat.All Barca need to do here is not lose 3-0.
Mukiele went for history there
feckin hell nearly an own goal.
The look on Mukiele's face there
Holy crap.
EL is where it's at this season anyways
Champions League is dumb

Fun match, this. The ref was an absolute catastrophe, though. In both directions, but that pen put the cherry on the shit cake.
Best thing for me about the CL this season is that Seville aren't dropping down into the EL.
Gives the rest of us a bit more of a chance....

I'm just about okay with the penalty. But how did United's second stand?
(I have no idea which set of handball rules are in play here so don't quiz me on it)

Mukiele is an absolutely dire defender. Hopefully, we're not looking at him...or we are very closely looking at him and avoiding like the plague-19.
So is the PSG game voided. They are saying that we are deffo out and PSG go through? Surely if they play and PSG lose, we would go through as runners up in the group? (Lot of straws being clutched here)
Nope. They won H2H 4-3
Watching the Leipzig defender shell-shocked at the end when he nearly OGd was sunny.
The comeback kings luck had to run out sooner than later. This why scoring 2 goals in the first half is not enough against them. Leipzig scored the 3rd at the right time before United could turn on the heat.
Thanks
3rd goal fecked up our H2H against PSG. At 2-1 we go through if PSG lose tonight as we'd be equal on H2H with them and on points but better GD.
3rd goal in that match, the loss in istanbul and the 3rd goal here have cost us on specifics but Ole has completely shat the bed,
If he goes with a simple 4-3-3 and doesn't try to be clever, or even had a 4-2-3-1 or diamond, we probably control more of the match.
Our defending is and has been dire and Maguire and Ole have to take responsibility. It simply isn't good enough as a unit to fight at the highest level.
The issue is decision making
Just saw the highlights.
That pen was hilarious and that second one was disgraceful.
Had United managed to draw somehow then this would go down as one of the worst ref performances I have ever seen.

Good decision in the end to go with a whole new set of referees.

Surprised about Salah and Fabinho, hope it won't backfire.
First time TAA captains us too if I'm not mistaken.
What happens if there is an injury?
They should have to play with 10 men or they should have to let the opposition coach pick who's allowed to fill in for the injured player.
Only fair, you know?
So if PSG lose they still go through?
Yeah they're already qualified, they'd be level on points with you guys but first tiebreaker is H2H and theirs is better in your 2 matchups.
Cool.story
so goal difference doesnt count these days?

Diallo not even on the bench.
It's the next tiebreaker in H2H since you and PSG both beat each other once. I think you won there 1-2 and they won 1-3 at Old Trafford which is why they're advancing if you end up level on points.
I have a question
In the PSG match, are they allowed to change the starting line-ups or would that count as a sub?
