Compared to the first it's a shallow comparison currentlyDestiny 2 is solid.
Maybe after 2 years of extra content it'll be comparable.

Park, Giggs and Carrick could defend and create. Our current midfield cannot do either against any top quality opposition. Also the champions league has much better teams than when we reached the last final.Park, Giggs and Carrick got us to a CL final so I don't see this as an issue so long as our tactics are right and we have a bit of luck
When we last reached the final we played the greatest ever Barcelona team managed by Pep Guardiola. The other teams in the competition weren’t so bad either.Park, Giggs and Carrick could defend and create. Our current midfield cannot do either against any top quality opposition.

Considering some of our domestic rivals' wins being exactly that kind of unexpected, I would love one such for ourselves. And bigger dark horses have won before us .Its funny all the other times we won it, we had basically the best side in Europe and an era defining side full of legends. This would be an underwhelming triumph compared to those, yet the fact it would be so against the odds would be pretty awesome too.
Oh of course, and I would argue we should have way more trophies in the cabinet for what we have contributed to Europe over the years. Just saying its notable that when we do win one, they're usually etched in legend and the crowning glory after decade of build up. It does make them more memorable and unique, unless of course you win like Liverpool did in Istanbul which is also just as glorious.. Chelsea in 2012 was abit meh though.Considering some of our domestic rivals' wins being exactly that kind of unexpected, I would love one such for ourselves.

Not sure what you've been watching, but Pogba and Matic get dominated like subservient b!tches against most top opposition. Most recent game was against Spurs who made them look like Sunday league players. We have had a couple of decent results against the top 6, but every one of those games our midfield was dominated when those 2 were paired together.When we last reached the final we played the greatest ever Barcelona team managed by Pep Guardiola.

Is it possible that you’re being over the top in your criticism?
“Paul Pogba, Nemanja Matic and whomever else can’t defend or create.”
Adding ‘quality opposition’ doesn’t somehow make that statement any less silly. If you’re so disheartened by our midfield what would be the midfield trio you would ideally have instead? How about Madrid’s in their current form? They won back to back CLs. Or are they garbage too?
Try being a little optimistic. That’s what the OP was trying for.
So is it that they’re bad, incompetent and incapable players not worthy of a United shirt or do we need to modify our tactics to get the best out of them? Oh idk say adding another solid midfield player so that it’s not 2 v 3 as was often the case against Spurs?Not sure what you've been watching, but Pogba and Matic get dominated like subservient b!tches against most top opposition.

My first thoughtLove how you pass the 41st off as the 40th and everybody humours you...
Can't expect 6 month old game to match a predecessor with 3 years worth of contentCompared to the first it's a shallow comparison currently

It should have been released with that much content in the first place! Destiny 1 was absolutely bare for the first few years, they didn't learn from their mistake.Can't expect 6 month old game to match a predecessor with 3 years worth of content
Quick, on my way to Norway.I don't feel it, no. But it would be great though.
And I would literally run naked through my neighborhood if that happened. You have my word.
You will be disappointed as this (us winning the CL) is clearly not happening.Quick, on my way to Norway.
Exactly my thinking as well.‘99, ‘08, ‘17, ‘26. Sorry guys, next European trophy is 8 years away.
I can always count on you when it comes to glum opinions. Let’s hope we are both wrong and only one of us is running naked.Exactly my thinking as well.

Anyone feel that ‘it is written’ that we’ll win the Champions League this year? 60 years after the tragedy in Munich.
As you all know, we won it on the 10th anniversary (1968), 40th (98/99), and the 50th (2008).
I know those Busby Babes are shining down on us... we’re gonna do it!
He is talking about Champions league, not Europa league! Don't give me "european trophy" thing.‘99, ‘08, ‘17, ‘26. Sorry guys, next European trophy is 8 years away.
I know what he means. I am giving you my spurious logic. Plus the OP has bent rules to fit his narrative. It will be grand if we do win and we can all run around naked.He is talking about Champions league, not Europa league! Don't give me "european trophy" thing.
Was thinking about it the other day, wolud be nice. 4 times, la!
I am not ignoring your question, I don't give a shite if it's 2 or 3 or however many. I just want the fecking midfield to be sorted out.So is it that they’re bad, incompetent and incapable players not worthy of a United shirt or do we need to modify our tactics to get the best out of them? Oh idk say adding another solid midfield player so that it’s not 2 v 3 as was often the case against Spurs?
Or answer the question you ignored - who would you rather have? And limit yourself to a midfield two because that’s the extent of your criticism.
You and me both. I'm at the point that if Jose is sticking with two in the middle then dump Pogba to the bench. He is just useless right now . We would honestly be better off with Matic and Lee Cattermole. (Yes extreme)I am not ignoring your question, I don't give a shite if it's 2 or 3 or however many.

We won a European cup last season I think that's our quota for the next 10 years unfortunatelyAnyone feel that ‘it is written’ that we’ll win the Champions League this year? 60 years after the tragedy in Munich.

And no, I don't get that feeling about this year.
