Europa League 2019/20

[always_hoping]

I really hope Shakhtar feck Inter up and go on to win the damned thing. Couldn't stomach Inter or Sevilla winning it now.

Will have little problem with Sevilla winning it at least it will confirm that the final in all but name was played yesterday and we all know United could or should have won. Worth remembering the predictions of some that Sevilla would play United off the park was well off the mark

Might be a good chance to check out any talents in the Shaktar squad too.

Was wondering how many Brazilians are in this Shaktar team, since a lot of the names sound Brazillian. BT answers with 13 in the squad.

 

[Paul_Scholes18]

Come on Shaktar both today and in the final!

 

[DomesticTadpole]

Martinez gives Inter the lead. Lovely cross in.

 

[always_hoping]

Stupid goalkeeping there.

 

[DomesticTadpole]

Stupid goalkeeping there.

Yep.

 

[GifLord]

1-0
Lautaro

 

[marktan]

Shaktar have one person in the box everytime someone crosses. Going to be a struggle to score against a back five like that.

 

[DomesticTadpole]

How did Inter not get a second. Offside anyway.

 

[Inigo Montoya]

1-0
Lautaro

Oh look, someone who can cross from the wings!

Seeing that really pisses me off about last night

 

[Paul_Scholes18]

Inter are better than us with our rejects. Food for thought.

 

[always_hoping]

30 minutes played the goal the only effort on target in this game so far and Inter seem happy with just 32% possession.

Pretty standard Conte performance, they'll probably win though.

 

[DomesticTadpole]

Barella is playing well.

 

[Machine Elements]

How come Shakhtar didn't replace that joke of a goalkeeper named Pyatov after all these years with stupid mistakes? Whenever I watch him in European games, he had a mistake in him. Is he a Shakhtar academy player or something?

 

[K_Ash]

Ashley looking really tiny in that Inter jersey

I am glad he is doing so well.

 

[always_hoping]

Not sure if Lukaku is sweating so much because of the heat or the thoughts of chesse burger at half time.

 

[Sandikan]

Actually forgot there was another semi!

At least we can't lose to Inter in the final now!

 

[lsd]

Have to say it will be quite satisfying to watch Lukaku , Sanchez and Young celebrating the Europa trophy if they win it this year considering the abuse they got from people on here

 

[Terminator]

Why would anyone watch this farmers cup

 

[always_hoping]

The technical ability of the two semi finalists last night was on different level to these two teams tonight

 

[Deery]

Shakhtar playing some nice football but you feel it will take something special to break down this Inter defence.

Shows a quality manager can get more out of them. Our managers have not done wonders with them tactically nor with good man management.
Although Lukaku is still looking like the old Lukaku watching him a lot of the time.

The benefits of having strikers on form

Last Shakhtar attack was against all 11 Inter players behind the ball.

Handball is so random.

Would you take Conte at Utd ?

Chess burger?

A Pawn sandwich maybe or Burger KING

 

[Paul_Scholes18]

Would you take Conte at Utd ?

Yes for his coaching. Not a fan of him fighting with the board and owners though.

 

[DomesticTadpole]

Pathetic from Godin.

 

[Sultan]

Shakhtar reminds me of the way United played under LvG.

 

[big rons sovereign]

Pathetic from Godin.

Embarrassing. Pretty much what Sevilla did for 90 mins last night.

What should we have done different with them? I assume you think we should have kept them? Why? Justify their time at the club.

 

[jem]

Watching this is a good reminder of why I don’t miss Lukaku - loves a good moan, but so lacking in real quality himself.

 

[Zoo]

Had to score. Shakhtar need to start committing more bodies forward

 

[Deery]

Could have headed it anywhere and it would have gone in

 

[DomesticTadpole]

2-0.

 

[always_hoping]

FFS should be 1-1 and now 2-0.
