My mistake, have not been following soccer for some time.

Away goals advantage has indeed been removed.

Outright win will be required, or will extra time into penalties.
Nonetheless, I still think Man Utd good enough to go through.

But no expectations, won't be surprised if they don't.

Yes, the away-goals rule was abolished a few years ago....but the matches still hv to be played twice, home n away to determine the winning team

Will expect Real Sociedad to soak and counter to break the back 3.
If Man Utd scores first, Real Sociedad will probably go heavy on attack to get at least 2 goals to go through.

Feel there is a better than average chance Man Utd can get this game.

Meanwhile, there is the RAT stirring things up with saying some players are overpaid and over-rated.
Not the player's fault if the club went dumb and gave them that salary.
If it was me and the club wanted to give me a high salary even if I did not think I deserve it, not like I will say too much too much.

Rough times ahead for Man Utd supporters.

Like I said before, Man Utd is so bad so any win is a bonus.
So no expectations, no disappointments.

They shd be able to get thru with Bruno's free kicks etc, etc ...only thing is banana GK don't fumble again...if the team loses it is because he makes errors leading to the ball going past him into his net

can't compare with Alisson.

I feel no point starting Hojlund next time.
He shows total lack of confidence and most times, LOST.
But I was thinking maybe let Garnacho be the main man. The attacking outlet. Free to shoot or pass.
The secret weapon will come in the form of Mazraoui.
Put him further up. His stamina is simply amazing.
A few times he comes in from behind, even outrun the forwards.
He also calls for the ball a few times, showing he is confident of making things happen.

Yes, of course, he is not up to Alisson std yet...wat I meant was for this match only

As for hojlund, if I m the manager, I will bench him n not play him unless there is no choice...or until see him convince in training

Lol, the Poodians thought they are going to thrash PSG at Anfield.
But I guess Arne Slot wants to concentrate on the more 'prestigious' Carabao Cup ba.

How can it be ??...i thought everyone says the Carabao Cup is a mickey mouse cup ??

Sounds crazy.

Wonder where they r going to find this money needed for the stadium...they r already heavily in debt

United should win tonight but it all depends on whether Bart Simson's black cousin Bart Banana is up for the challenge !!!!!!!!!

[asiancigar]

Will watch the first half and if they are pussyfooting around, i will go to sleep !!!!!

SJR has already publicly said some players are not good enough and overpaid, i think from now until end of season is the final round of auditions for the players, if they fail the audition, out they go in the summer

UEL 2nd leg at home vs sociedad, should be home win but will concede as usual. ugarte returns from injury so should start and collyer sub on for him to manage his minutes. dorgu will provide pace, width and penetration on the left and then garnacho to sub on as impact sub against tired opponents

possible XI: onana, de ligt, lindelof, mazraoui, dalot, dorgu, ugarte, casemiro, zirkzee, fernandes, hojlund

17 " Man U 1 - 1 RSO

What a start! 2 penalties! Hojlund contribute by earning a penalty for Fernandes to equalise.

HT : Man U 1 - 1 RSO

Pussies got their chances, but their final pass always let them down.

Dorgu looks lively on the left, runs into open spaces well. But he quite hasty at times, opting to shoot instead of passing.

Heaven got his European debut, but looks shaky at the back.

2 penalties from the game so far..... it is a good match and worthy of watching the 2nd half.

It's like watching a totally different United team play..... there is belief, they are fighting for every ball, they are tracking back and most importantly are looking very fluid in their attack.

We might win this game yet provided Black Bart Banana not fuck up at all !!!!!!!

[lacoruna69]

50": Man U 2 - 1 RSO

Referee and VAR gives another penalty to pussies...n Bruno converted again!

For Aritz foul on Dorgu...but looks like Dorgu bumps into him instead...Lol.


63"

Drama!! Sub Aramburu sent off for hacking down Dorgu. Aram only on the pitch for 7 minutes.
Direct Red card. RSO left 10 men.

If pussies cannot hold on the lead, really something wrong.

Dorgu now looks like MOTM for the pussies, earn a penalty then caused an opponent player to get sent off.
