Again, I will say, we've had one hell of a fixture list.

It is and agree. But there has been concern after the Villa game even with the hard fixtures. With a manager saying intensity is our mantra..not been seen since the Villa game. Dont expect to be flying out every game but it hasnt been seen since the Villa game and 30 mins of the Liverpool game. Midfield and attack link up has some serious issues. But we can fully judge after the next two games.

How the hell does Tomori not get in the England team ahead of Maguire. Nothing was getting past him tonight.

 

I'm sorry like, but that's just fucking insane. It seemed like he was stopping our entire strike force by himself tonight.

Fucking brilliant day in Milan, capped off by a really positive performance, barring some sloppy nervous play in the first half.

 

Opening 10 mins we were great, for about 20 mins after that it was very tough, and then after that I thought we played really well considering the size of the task.

 

The San Siro, in person, is a really fucking intimidating place to play, which I’d say significantly affected our play in the first half.

 

The second half was a tremendous away performance at one of the hardest stadiums in the world.

 

Very very proud of the lads. What a day!

What is intimidating about it? Genuine question, just interested to know

Now it’s digested, I’ve listened the players and a manger… the occasion, the inexperience, the atmosphere, the journey from there to now, the first game of the group of death, the clean sheet.

 

I’ve taken a step back and realised this is brand new , it was all about the journey this year. Yes, we hopefully go on to play better but fuck it, 0-0 at the San Siro in the opening game, I’ll take it ?

What's solid about poor finishing? They should've had atleast two goals and that's been stingy on my part. 

Sure, some luck involved too. Was just saying I think we’re obviously somewhat out of nick and are trying to focus on solidity and the basics, and results of last 2 games in those circumstances show a good, well-coached side. But yes, also somewhat lucky tonight. Proud as punch nonetheless.

And Theo Hernandez

 

Milan were nowhere near as bad as some of our more arrogant fans were expecting. Respected posters were poo-pooing their players on the basis of a freak result in the weekend derby.

A lot of it probably just looking for reasons for optimism?

We were nee where near as bad as every cunt in the world expected is to be either. 

 

We're allowed to be confident at times you know.

Tonali looks a little lost atm. No doubting his potential but just not seeing it myself. Weve lacked any sort of creativity since the Villa game. I know weve played some top teams but it is not existent.

It’s fucking massive for a start, the positioning of the ground makes it very intimidating on approach. Inside is similar, it’s just huge. 
the Milan fans do a great job of intimidating players, the Curza Sud Rosso is constantly going in a way English grounds aren’t. 
when we attacked, they had someone on a microphone or something making a tone that’s canny off putting, all the ground joins in. 
beat away ground I’ve been to by a mile.
