Over/under on how many times Villarreal players act like they’ve been shot when tackled?

Few prime Real Madrid’s and Barcelona’s in there. If ever the streak was to be broken...
Well, we all know this will be the lineup. Were people expecting anything else ?
At least 30
Maguire. I thought he might be able to play.
Valencia faced Bayern in the 2001 Champions League final & lost, so he’s wrong.
I'm hoping its Axel back there rather than Bailly, whose comments yesterday pissed me off.
He didn't train yesterday.
That's almost certainly the start of this run, the last time a Spanish side lost a final to a non-Spanish one.
We knew that before the start of the final.
There’s also been an unprecedented run from Madrid and Barca in that period; Two of the best sides with 2 of the greatest players. Let’s not get carried away with the stat
If things need changing it’ll be Greenwood on, Rash back on the left and one of McFred coming off.
Yeah I reckon it'll be 11/11 all round in the predictions
Yeah it basically means that Ronaldo and Messi were really good. Though Sevilla did have a weird hold on this competition.
i expected him to start Greenwood on the right and Rashford on the left as they are our best attacking options. Looks like he is caving in to Pogba as i'm sure if he didn't start, he would absolutely be out the door in the summer.
He's also "caving" to Pogba since he's one of our best attacking players, especially to hold onto the ball and drive it forward past lots of defenders.
Ole likes to blow up stuff like that.
Eh..every single big game recently he went on with Rashford right and Pogba left with Scott and Fred combo. I don't think he was going to change what he thinks his winning formula.
He's one of our best players mate. He's going to be on the teamsheet for a European final. The only question was if he'd play at CM / LW.
Nothing to do with Pogba staying / leaving in the summer.
Pogba has been in mostly great form playing from the left and a key part in getting to the final. Why would he have changed it? We haven't played Rashford and Greenwood together on the wings in months, it wouldn't change now.
There are variables that can be discussed but overall a trophy is a trophy and we need to win.
I would rather be 6th and win the EL than be 2nd and lose.
By variables I mean early stages if you are not in too 4, which pot you get put in etc with different competitions. But overall with where we are I'd rather the EL than knockout stages and a trophy like this one over top 4.

Have any of the Glazers been spotted?
The lesser spotted Glazer struggles to migrate as far east as Manchester, let alone Gdansk
Pogba on the left is perfectly fine. If we do line up with Rashford on the right, I think it's a poor call though, given his form I general, how uncomfortable he is on the right, and the good form of Greenwood in recent weeks.
For me, Rashford either starts on the left or on the bench in current form.
Agreed. All the best plays Rashford has made from the right have come when he's been given time and space to think and set himself up for a deliberate hit with his right foot. I really doubt he's getting that against Villareal's system. Would love to be proven wrong.
Is the only stream for this match in the US really behind the Paramount+ paywall?
edit: I know I can do the 1 week free trial, but still. Damn. Just show it on normal tv.
