They have some gifted technical players like Fekir and Canales, but also physical midfielders like William Carvalho and Guido Rodríguez. 5th in La Liga. Pellegrini is a good manager. United will be too strong for them over both legs. Edited February 24 by O Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rezzy 4,678 Posted February 24 Report Share Posted February 24 They love a red card. 11 this season, compared to just Casemiros red for us. Not sure if its them or Spanish refs though. Will be tough, hopefully we can get a highscore win in the first leg and just ease the pressure. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Lisandro Martínez has avoided two red cards for off the ball incidents this season. Sabitzer avoided a clear red card as well. But yeah, 11 is a lot. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The good thing about playing so many Spanish clubs though is that we dont have to deal with English OR Spanish refs in europe. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

O 20,624 Posted March 9 Report Share Posted March 9 I think Arteta would be secretly happy to go out of this competition. They have a rare opportunity to win a league title. He's rotated a fair bit for the game away to Sporting Lisbon who are no mugs. Gary 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
O 20,624 Posted March 16 Report Share Posted March 16 What a goal from Pedro Gonçalves. It's that good, I wouldn't even blame a GK. Sporting have given Arsenal such a tough game. Their intensity is huge. This is exactly what Arsenal don't need while going for a league title. Early injuries and now ET. Ramsdale's kicking is pretty poor. De Gea-esque. hdcantona 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Mourinho will fancy his chances at reaching the final. Feyenoord are decent though. A repeat of last season's Conference League final. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

They're not having a very good season. Although they do have some good players. The 1st leg being at Old Trafford is a big advantage. They're much better at home.

They are the masters of this tournament and our losses to them will be in back of the mind of all United players. We can still win easily if we are clinical enough.

After our performance against Betis the other night, I reckon you may be a little over optimistic my friend? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
John Locke 1,196 Posted March 17 Report Share Posted March 17 (edited) Oh boy that's not we were looking for. Still i think that all that lot are a level down from barca and it'd be lovely to get one over pesky sevilla. Edited March 17 by John Locke Quote Link to post Share on other sites
