Sir scruffy Jim likes this post.The first half in that Madrid game was the best football I've ever seen, by any team, ever.
Play like Brazil in the 80s ?Countless times in the 80s saw us play like Brazil 1st half, struggle to score… then capitulate second half.
akanji left back during a few of those games was immense. Marauding presence striding into midfield high on the press and not allowing them a moment on the ball, stood next to Rodri and just suffocating madridDefinitely the 4-0 vs Real Madrid
As an aside Jack Grealish could do with watching again how he played that night - he was magnificent taking on the full back continually at pace and causing havoc!
Most bottless team Ferguson ever sent out, not one shot on target in 90 mins, they barely had an attack.2012 1-0 vs United. Essentially the title decider. They didn't have a shot on target, it was defensive perfection.
Abso- fucking-lutey !!!The first half in that Madrid game was the best football I've ever seen, by any team, ever.
