Should be scoring more against such a terrible side. We aren't winning in Spain by 2.

You could say… this team doesn’t have it in them?

 

[RuudTom83]

I'm getting used to watching United dominate teams...long may it continue.

Great match...zero negatives

 

[sport2793]

Nice victory but our understat Xg stat continues to be bad and that worries me.

Also there's a player in Garnacho. A good one.

, well played

 

[always_hoping]

As routine of European win as you'll see. On to the next game now against better opposition.

 

[Smores]

Easy win, youth got time, no injuries, rest and rotation. Perfect European game really.

 

[Bobski]

Europe league is really shit, but a decent enough performance.

 

[baskinginthesun]

Glad to see we're getting better a beating low blocks and teams setting up to defend.

ETH managed the game well. Good subs. Maybe Bruno could've done with being subbed but didn't feel like he was pushing that hard this game so maybe he was already managing energy levels.

 

[Member 101269]

Good win against a park the bus side

grest to see Ronnie score, it seems he’s a little out of sorts. Yet, nice to see him support the youngsters.

Maguire, can I roll my eyes?

 

[Oranges038]

Did you see how Donny ran into space a few times, extra options. Good he is back, good cameo

Highlight of the game for me.

His ability to run where no one else is, really is astounding.

I'd be very surprised if we even win that game, let alone by 2. Think we just need to accept we are going to playing a big strong team that dropped out of CL. I hope to christ it's not Atletico Madrid. Cannot deal with those clowns.

 

[Herman Toothrot]

Excellent all-around. Clearly not what he was, but great to see Ronaldo get a goal. While he's here and taking home half a million a week, needs to score some goals and needed one to beat the frustration.

Garnacho is some player. I think he's earned a chance ahead of Elanga.

 

[Cutch]

Don't get why this is so important. Why should we be worried about playing a 3rd place CL team in a knockout tie. If we are to win this Europa League we'll have to play decent sides along the way

 

[Superunknown]

Europe league is really shit, but a decent enough performance.

It'll probably be more exciting to watch than the Champions League this season, to be fair.

 

[Jazz]

Done the job. Players rested etc.
Hopefully Ronaldo keeps his head down now and be happy he got a goal.

Great headers from Dalot and Rash.

Not looking forward to Real S, but we';ll see.

OMG you actually fell for it

 

[I Am Zlatan]

Whoscored and ESPN both have them has having no shots.

Same with google, didn’t the Cedric guy have one and de gea saved it early in the first half?

 

[Someone]

Good win. One noticeable trend is that clubs no longer think they can have a go at us. Having teams park the bus is frustrating but it's also a sign of fear. Last season and earlier in the season everyone thought they could have a go, but not anymore.

Happy Ronaldo scored but he was average. Luke Shaw was great when he came on, so was Rashford. Loved seeing Garancho and think he had a good game.

 

[The Brown Bull]

Good win. Decent performance .I could have played for us tonight in goal and I’m over 60!

 

[90 + 5min]

Nothing strange. Easy win.

 

[BorisManUtd]

You rarely see a team not having a single shot in the game but it was the case with Sheriff tonight.

Good that Dalot, Martinez, Casemiro and Antony got rested 2nd half.

 

[Dempsey19]

OMG you actually fell for it

Fell for ?

 

[Leftback99]

We could do without 2 extra games for one. Anything that gives us a better chance of CL next season is a bonus, the easier route the better.

 

[MonkeysMagic]

Nice run out, still not clinical in front of goal across the team but one can hope ETH is working on it. Generally we play poorly away to Spanish clubs but I hope for a 2-0 win. Important game on Sunday so need to keep full focus on weekend games.

 

[FiiiiveTenHaaags]

@Rozay

Best prediction since Berbaclass in the FDJ thread

Correct me if I’m wrong but we only need to be that shit Spanish team by 2 regardless of our score tonight because of head to head?

Tbh I don’t think we can really say that seeing as they beat us albeit with a shit penalty if I recall

 

[The Firestarter]

@Rozay - 0

 

[newgiz]

Job very well done. We were in complete control and never looked in any sort of trouble.

Shaw had a great impact when he came on in the second half and so did Rashford. Nice cameo from Van De Beek as well who had a good couple of moments.

As we continue to develop, we will have to get used to the low block setup that teams would deploy against us just like Sheriff did. We were not so convincing in the first half, but in the second half we looked more threatening.

Have to admire the persistence of Ronaldo to still continue to make the runs until he got his goal. In the long run,we need to get a striker soon.As much as I admire Ronaldo, he looks visibly on the decline, and we cannot rely on Martial to stay fit.

 

[JinnerJamie]

Correct me if I’m wrong but we only need to be that shit Spanish team by 2 regardless of our score tonight because of head to head?

If we win 1-0 they have us on goal difference.
We score 2 goals and win we take it on H2H

 

[Cutch]

Didn't realise it was 2 extra games to be honest. You have a point there then

 

[FiiiiveTenHaaags]

The woman on BT Sport just described the tie breaker with Sociedad weirdly…I swear everyone posted something different from that

 

[Fully Fledged]

Don't get why this is so important. Why should we be worried about playing a 3rd place CL team in a knockout tie. If we are to win this Europa League we'll have to play decent sides along the way

It's 2 games we don't need in such a congested season.

 

[Fabio Rochemback]

That's exactly the sort of game we'd invariably have made hard work of and conceded several chances in under any post-Fergie manager. It's great to see us actually playing teams off the park again, even if they are minnows.

 

[TheReligion]

Fell for ?

The poster you quoted with your serious nonsense response was taking the piss

 

[Ramshock]

Robbie Savage is a bellend

 

[TheGodsInRed]

They didn't even try to score, even when we went ahead. Gonna be hard to top the group now.

 

[FiiiiveTenHaaags]

Obvs 3-0 is good but would have liked to see Dubravka and Iqbal…only reason I can think of that we aren’t playing Dubravka is I think there’s a higher fee if he plays more games? Might have imagined that mind

 

[Leftback99]

I'd be very surprised if we even win that game, let alone by 2. Think we just need to accept we are going to playing a big strong team that dropped out of CL. I hope to christ it's not Atletico Madrid. Cannot deal with those clowns.

Yeah it will be a struggle. Atletico would be an awful draw but we owe them one.

 

[TMDaines]

I guess the Sociedad away match will be a good test for the manager and players to play with a bit of pressure in a mock second leg scenario. Gonna be tough to win there by two, when they are a similar level side to us currently, and one that has had better results than us this season.

 

[Real Name]

No was we're winning by 3 in Spain.

 

[FiiiiveTenHaaags]

Anyone know if it’s a random draw against the Champs League teams or seeded somehow?

 

[FiiiiveTenHaaags]

No was we're winning by 3 in Spain.

2 is enough I think?
