Is there a more boring (but effective) team in Europe at the moment? Yawn.

Boring.
Horrible.
But very good at it.

This style of football can be awful to watch when the goals don’t come.

They’ll only come out a handful of times, but when they do we have to risk playing the ball forward quicker when we regain it and counter. Alas, on two occasions Rodri has kept it and allowed them to regroup.

Simeone is great at what he does but your right we need spread the game fast and get behind them . Normally teans tire in the second half and it opens up but that won’t happen here tonight and it might be a case of doing the job in Madrid . Hope pep doesn’t wait till the 65th min as foden could terrorise these .

Might be a game where it's worth having a striker in the box.

Stick Jesus in there as a focal point.

We're absolutely crying out for a focal figure, still amazed at how we're top without one

If the forward players attacked the forward spaces more it may work. Hanging back and waiting for the ball will not work versus this lot. They're a very good side.

 

[Millwallawayveteran1988]

Certainly lacking something tonight. Almost afraid to have a go. Ake offers nothing going forward so it’s easy for them to predict what’s going to happen. Everything coming from the right.

I'm fine with everything we're doing but the commentary is appalling. Anyone who thinks there is no agenda need only read what our National broadcaster, that we pay for, reports on us and allows post like this shite:

The more economical man with the most expensive defender and goal keeper in the league.

United couldn’t score against them, what chance have we got?
