Sevilla and the EL just have that connection.
Fully expect them to go on and win the whole thing now.
DDG and Maguire were a joy tonight.
Brighton will massacre Utd next week, especially if Varane and Martinez both still out.
Wouldn't put it past them to finish 5th either.
Be some big teams in there again next year.
Don't think it's about liking another team to win the league if its not us but more about the degrees of not hating the team who win. Arsenal are obviously a less detestable team to city and as a bunch of fans they are the only ones out of the so called top 6 who respect the minutes silence... Spurs fans are the real joke of a bunch of supporters
Everton are going to come riding in like a knight in shining armor and offer United 55 million plus 200K in wages, aren't they? Feels inevitable.
Maguire wanted the ball, he pointed it and De Gea played it. Both should have known better but it was another classic Maguire thinking he is some ball playing CB when he is not.
Sevilla really played very last night, swarmed all over Utd from the get go...forced them into mistakes and it paid off for them.
What's good about the EL this year is that each 1 (other than Juve now that they're 15 point deduction been overturned) need it to guarantee qualification into CL next season.

Yeah. But Maguire has this habit of punting the ball long. One in twenty tends to find a United player by pure randomness and immediately his acolytes in the media paint him as some kind of Baresi Beckenbauer hybrid. Leicester really did a number on United.
By the way, it was not a great pass by De Gea but Maguire still had time to recover and get the ball to safety. He decided to dwell on the ball with three attackers approaching.
How about winning a trophy?
Before the Russians/Chinese/Arab ruined football with their oil money it was unthinkable that the worlds highest paid transfer fee for a player could have no credibility.
& instantly I think back to the times when Juve had just signed Thuram for about 30m and at the time he was already a world cup & serie a winner.

You only kick it long if you don't trust your CB at all. He turns on that or shows any awareness and it's a great opportunity and you're at the halfway line with three players totally out of play.
And you might rightly say "why trust that CB" even though he's instructed to play out because playing out like that is the bread and butter of any modern team with any aspirations. Well, then, again, it's the CB that is the problem. His awareness is awful and he's slow of foot and mind.
Good teams invite a press like that, it wasn't even that ferocious or complete, it was just they know that he's shit and crumbles.
Its not about that though. Its about that specific situation and the timing of it. Maguire is shit and a major issue for Utd. But I would expect both Ederson and Alisson to play that ball to anyone else but the CB with 3 players surrounding him in the 5th minute in an away tie in Europe.
Surrounding him? They were meters away, not that he had any awareness of where they are.
