I don’t dread this side at all. Any sort of improvement in terms of press and we win this
Oops, can this be moved to the Manchester Forum 
If we do I hope we don't go on a massive losing streak afterwards!
Yep exactly. They are basically forced to play like us under Ole but with better players given the front three, any kind of press in place and we can completely overrun their midfield. That said, if we go by the Norwich game, we'll get hammered.
Champions League Ronaldo will be fecking ready for this one. We'll be fine.
Outwork them and we have a chance, their front 3 isn’t moving.
No way Neymar is fit to play by the way
Yeah what is the expected date for return for him?
I fully trust our team to be ready for them come Feb. Nice that we finish it at home as well. Away goals also no long a problem to worry about.
Middle of February but they’re saying it could be later. Either way he isn’t playing after so many months out
Varane back, Ronaldo up front and a well drilled press? I think we can do it. Just hope we sign a midfielder first.
No worries, between super fred, champions league Varane and Siuuuuuuuuuuu(per) Ron we've got this.
I hope both Messi and Ronaldo don’t feature across the 2 legs. UEFA deserve payback for their incompetence in organising a fair draw
Someone actually made a video on this fraud of a match?
PSG all over us, hitting the woodwork multiple times.. how do we win?
Goal from a terrible backpass directly into Lukaku
Goal from a terrible unusual spill from an easy catch for Buffon directly
Goal from a lucky penalty in the last minute
Can't believe still think of this match like it's some mythical great escape we made from playing well, it was one of the luckiest wins we've ever had and it got blown way out of proportion which led to Ole's hiring in the first place. I've never understood it, even if I was ecstatic with the win at the time

We can beat these. We absolutely battered them in Paris last season and they only got a consolation from a bizarre Martial own goal. We should have won by more.
Agreed.
Bore off
Haven’t we got Leeds and city as well inbetween
Thanks for your great insight and input.
You mean repeat one of the greatest CL smash and grabs? Statistically yes. Realistically no.
The ecstasy was too much on the night. It felt like we had won the world.
Get Rashford into form. He loves playing against this lot. And of course we have Ronaldo.
Football, bloody hell.
Well in this case mountains can just be demolished and new potentially smaller much easier mountains are now available to climb.
Where's your shit analogy now eh?

Yeah it was a smash and grab, but at the time it still felt amazing after being well beaten 2-0 at home. I don’t know why it has the reverence it does though. It was the round of 16, and we were thumped 4-0 the following round.
An interim manager vs PSG in round of 16. What can go wrong
Yeah like I said, of course it felt amazing and even I was ecstatic, but if you actually watch the match/highlights we were god awful and people act like it's the CL99 final in terms of importance and infamy
Sorry I don't accept drops in standards to the floor, it was the round of 16 and we got torched in the next round
This.
Let's close the thread, this guy doesn't accept drops in standards.
Hopefully Rangnick will approach you after the interim term has passed.
@0le ??
Well in 1 hour's time this thread will still be applicable, good to know.
Locked until we re-draw PSG.
