Liking our plan, get rid of the bigger teams early so we can have an easier final. Like it.

Fucking called it. Fuck off man.

We have just beaten the best club side in the world with a "make shift" defence.  We can beat Man Utd and trust me, they are more wary of us than we are of them.

Have to say, I’ve missed seeing our press. Gave me goosebumps tonight. Understand the reason for not doing it as much but there’s nothing better than seeing our lads out press everyone 

 

I like that we pick our moments more tbh. Think it will pay off long term as we will maintain intensity through the season.

 

Against better teams sitting in that compact block in the middle of our half for periods to close off spaces in between the lines will also make things harder for these possession based sides.

 

Once we really get a hang of it, I think it has potential against better sides.

Knew it would be something like that, except was thinking Liverpool

Scant reward for the efforts and in the end might have done everyone else a favour

 

Did expect this season to be this generations 94/95 - Got one Manchester away after the other at home in the league-cup back then.

It's called great management.

It will be on Wednesday 1st November. Manchester derby is on the Sunday before it. They then have Fulham early kick off on the Saturday. 
 

Sandwiched between Wolves away and Arsenal at home for us (both on a Saturday at half five)

That was a class performance. Kept it tight first half and played really well on second. Bruno transformed our midfield and Tino and Joelinton were amazing.

 

Not scared of Man Utd at all, we’ll beat them.

I went from not really caring about the game to having the most positive experience watching us all season. I feel even better than what I did after the 8-0. Just so proud of the team for that second half! Bruno really needed that Sheffield United game, his confidence looks great now. Different team when he came on. Also positively surprised by the squad depth we have at the moment. Didn't realise that our reserves could perform like this. I can only imagine that this will be a nice confidence boost to the entire squad.

Although it was the best Bruno has played this season. It also goes to show that we take him for granted even when he isn’t 100%. Nobody else can get close to what he can do for us, changed the game

I was the same. I was up on my feet at home cheering the late Dummett and Targett tackles/interceptions. Loved the passion we showed!
