Probably think we're about to harvest them for crops
Manchester United vs Olympique Lyonnais (Wed 19th July, 14:00 UK time)
- 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?
That ref is blind
proper premier league refereeing
That's an interesting decision from the ref.
This ref 
Haven't been paying too much attention, but that Alila fellow on Lyon seems like a promising footballer. Showed some decent dribbling skills and accurate passing.
Will Fish looks massive now, was towering over that Lyon player.
.well, certainly not a prem footballer. My god he has been invincible
Classic Fredinho.
Not sure how we've ended up with a free kick out of that
Fred freekick ...
Very impressed by gore.
Will Whale
Fred

fecking fred.
Who is this Donny bloke? he is on the score sheet.
A new signing?
A new signing?
Really? I prefer psychological horror.
Take your points Fred, keep that scoreboard ticking over.
Didn't take much away from that apart from improving our fitness tbh
That was difficult to sit through.
Looked like a shop window type of match.
Hopefully fulham aren't watching Fred

To be fair to Fred, usually at Murrayfield the balls do go over the bar intentionally. He just forgot which sport he was playing.
Perhaps not from you lad, but I can already see some snarky remarks about the both of them in the match day thread, and it's only a friendly!
Would be nice if we could get behind our players for once rather than tear them down with every bad touch or misplaced pass.
Gone looks good
Gore was good in that half. Will be interesting to see what else he can do
Another good fitness workout.
Nothing more

Be great if this can be a break through season at United for Donny. If he can't do it under Ten Hag then he's unlikely to do it elsewhere.
Is DVB the new Anderson?
The caf doesn't know any better.
Good looks gone.
Kovar - Nothing to do, some good quick throws and smart passing.
Jurado - Some decent effort but quality lacking.
Fish - Not really challenged. Steady.
Evans - As above, but did well in a 1v1 against a tricky quick player, snuffed out a cut back chance as well.
Williams - Was steady.
Fred - Started well, ridiculous free kick, tried to do too much too quickly.
Gore - Good little player there, will be a good loan for a League 1 side that likes to play.
VdB - Fantastic volley, when he was able to get on the ball he looked good.
Forson - Emeran must have an injury or has done something silly because I don't know how Omari has had these minutes ahead of him.
Hugill - Did everything you could expect, occupied the defenders and pressed well. If Hojlund or another striker isn't wrapped up then he should go on tour to be that option.
Hansen-Aaroen - Good effort and a neat trick to create a chance, clearly not a winger however.
Overall - Decent enough against a very senior Lyon side for 60 odd minutes.

Lovely character Ando, I miss those beautiful times.Depends. Can he dance?
It was a game of football.
A decent pre season run out, more minutes in legs and another win. Can't really ask for much more than that.

Quite the cross & goal, fun to watch.
Yeah, was a little dull wasn’t it? Odd time for kickoff on a weds in the UK too.
Crowd sounded really excited
