As a United fan, I'd hate to see Ronaldo at City, but I don't think he'd fit in at United as well as he does there. I also don't think Ole wants to bring in another over 30 player when he could possibly get Haaland in next year, or even in January if things work out. 57 minutes ago, -kj said: Group B is definitely saucy. Group A is the group of evil. I think Liverpool tops the group and Atletico gets 2nd place. They'll probably kick the crap out of each other though.

Just disgusting. At least no one threw a scooter like Inter Milan fans did one time. This is the second time this year fans of opponents have tossed bottles at Marseille. Montpelier did so two weeks ago as well. https://www.theguardian.com/football/2006/mar/29/theknowledge.sport Nice will play at least one game without fans, and they will have a meeting on September 8th to decide if they get more penalties.

DEAD! Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 Group G is going to be interesting because Lille are a shell of their former selves. That could have been PSG in that spot, which would have been a cakewalk for them. Then you have two teams that finish fourth domestically. But the Shaktar Donetsk and the Sheriff Tiraspol might be the most fascinating of all because it features a club in Shaktar who have been displaced and Tiraspol is in a region that would prefer to leave Moldova.

Digby Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 Ronaldo to City feels like a move just to make a move. They’ll be fine, they’re City, but it doesn’t really make sense on the pitch.

Digby Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 You’ll have a few of those highlight reel goals, sure, but you’ll also have Ronaldo standing around waiting for service and pouting, not doing the off the ball work that Pep’s teams typically do. He should probably just go to Inter Miami or something. We saw at Euro this year how Ronaldo’s presence, at this stage in his career, can make a strong attack less than the sum of its parts.

And he'll leave when it's Messi's turn to visit South Beach. I don't see how this helps United do anything other than sell shirts. It could also be a sign that Cavani is not as fit as expected. But I think having the options of Cavani, Ronaldo, Martial and eventually Greenwood and Rashford up top gives United the ability to challenge for the EPL and Champions League. I'd rather they'd have gone for Haaland, even if I hate his agent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJWalker45 Posted September 14, 2021 Author Share Posted September 14, 2021 Manchester United lose 2-1 to Young Boys after Aaron Wan Bissaka was sent off with a straight red. Pretty poor call by the ref, though yellow wouldn't have been egregious. United failed to pass properly in the second half and get punished.

It was late, it was lunging, and it could have easily broken Martins's ankle. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I think the referee needs to see that in regular motion as well as slow motion before making that kind of call. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
