Spurs didn't really "dominate" either, they had more possession than juve because juve decided to sit back the whole game but they didn't have that many clear cut chances and juve looked more dangerous the few times they decided to try actually attack. Juve were pretty shit though.

Guys, spurs dominated Juve and should have won. Juves first goal was offside as well. Dembele controlled the game and juve couldn't cope with eriksen also. They missed matuidi so much that game. They're lucky to still have a chance in this tie

Yeah that bolded part is where you took it a little too far. Juve should have been up 3-1 going into the half. Spurs deserved their 2-2 on the balance of play and are definitely in "control" of the tie with the 2 away goals but come on.

True, the missed penalty. But Juves first was offside and spurs were by far the better team.

What’s happening with Mou’s United? Chelsea dominated first half, Lukaku scored lucky goal even he was worst player at the pitch.

Second half United is much better.

And Lukaku with a nice cross and Lingard with the header. 2:1.

Yup. ManUtd was much better in the second half compared to the first one, but some of their key players are under performing big time. Their game can be very boring and predictable at some time but all of sudden they are able to pull a fantastic gameplay and score.

It goes to show that ManUtd can be a very lazy team.

Not lazy, poorly coached team who looks clueless in final third and also manager who don't expect his team to press high.

Isn't this the same team who managed to pull fantastic performances in the beginning of the season and score 3-4 goals almost every game and press high, besides of that also create a bunch of goalscoring chances?

We scored lot of goals in the last 10 mins with superb counter attacks, then started the decline when Jose played all out defense against Liverpool. Before that Pogba injury, suspension. Jose messing up team a lot by not playing players in their best position.

If we score first goal and early, we are good. We have to breakdown teams, we are generally clueless and very static team. Players don't make off the ball runs or even dummy runs.

If Man U starts to get good again, EPL might be worth watching. God knows anything's better than the piece of shit football we've gotten this season.

Arsenal-ManCity is being played already and the stadium looks almost half empty... doesn't happen that often in an EPL game though, especially in this kind of big game.

Could be the reason of midweek game, plus the cold weather or something.

Arsenal fans probably knew they were going to get destroyed again, also the weather at the moment is like -7 degrees with snow pretty much stopping transport so thats probably the main reason

Also, it rarely gets this cold in London, and if it does snow, it's never for more than 1 day. It's been like this all week.

If I had free tickets to watch any derby in this weather, I wouldn't go. Let alone if I was an Arsenal supporter :yao:

Yeah I've lived in London my whole life, and never seen snow like this. It ain't even that bad imo but people get crazy over it.
