Our defense and passing has been atrocious. The counter attack has been lethal though.

Box to box by Lukaku. Amazing counter attack!

Really nice counter, I have to admit.

You can always count on Lukaku to lead the line against crap sides.

Weird match. Outplayed for a good part. Or at least out worked. Huddersfield played on the front foot and attacked no doubt. On to the QF and big game this week.

If only we had magic pumpkin spice colored kits to wear, we could be assured of winning.

I'd lend you ours, but they're being cleaned for our next match.

My prediction...0-0.

Well, now that I hear the rumor that Pogba won't start and instead Matic, McTominay, and Herrera will start, I'll add that not only will it be a 0-0 but United will have less than 40% of the ball and will only look mildly threatening when on the counter.

United XI: Dave, Valencia, Lindelof, Smalling, AY, Matic, Herrera, McTominay, Mata, Alexis, Lukaku

Subs: Romero, Bailly, Darmian, Pogba, Lingard, Martial, Rashford

Its like Mou is trying to lose.

Can we all stop pretending like we know more than the multiple time champions league winning coach? FFS let the gaffer do his job and have faith

It's pretty obvious (and was before Pogba was announced as not starting) that Mourinho would park the bus, it's what he always does in a big away match. Snoozer for us neutrals

If Pogba is on the bench he's healthy. I cannot imagine in what universe you would sit a healthy Paul Pogba in favor of Scott McTominay in a CL away leg in a knockout stage.

I personally would like to see a Pogba-McTominay-Matic midfield but maybe that's just me.

How is that not a yellow? Studs up into Sanchez's upper thigh.

Ref has now called Lukaku and a Sevvila player to tell them to lay off the fouls. And Lukaku gets fouled twice in succession. If you are going to tell them no more you better back it up.

I'm all for playing youth (I think Tuanzebe and Fosu-Mensah could anchor our defense) but McTominay doesn't need to be anywhere near the first team

Smalling and Lindelof are just brutally bad. They are giving up so many good looks. Fortunately superman is in goal.

Possession is currently 55 to 45 but I'm pretty confident that gap will widen in the 2nd half.

Unfortunately, I can't blame it on Pogba's absence now.

It was almost 70-30 with Herrera in.

offside on that free kick wasn't called.

I think ESPN Gamecast is broken because it still insists 55 to 45.

It's dangerous trying to hold on for 0-0...Sevilla is starting to boss it down the right hand side
Dre_00
How long do you want to ignore this user?
It's dangerous regardless of whether they pull it off or not. Sevilla is more than capable of getting a scoring draw at OT.
