Sevilla same level as Munchen at Europa League. Careful.

I think better we face United than Sevilla in Final. Trust me.

Im liking 1 legged EL. Maybe for next year, draw at random who gets home tie, and the other team gets away goals.

I'm not sure which'd be more advantageous.

I am too honestly, hopefully the players don’t feel this way. This is the highest pressure one off match most of these guys have played. Although we seem to have mentally turned over a new leaf since the Atalanta game this is still the same team that lost to a 10 man Bologna At home with a PK to go 2 up. We ain’t that far removed, and we have the additional pressure of being clear favorites, this will be a huge test of our mentality.

Same. And not only because some members are celebrating Man Utd elimination too much. Even before the first semifinal I was afraid the final would be Sevilla-Shakhtar as everyone was expecting a Man Utd-Inter final. It's probably the most cliche phrase on the forum but the upcoming match is going to be a real test of character and mentality for the club.

Let's assume Inter is in the final for a minute.

I would want to face Manu just to beat those pricks. But their pace upfront scares me. That's exactly the kind of opposition we always have trouble against. And they were a bit unlucky, there was that series of 4-5 chances which they should have taken early in the 2nd half.

On the other hand, Sevilla are the wily foxes of this tournament. The team is hardly threatening. Everything comes through their fullbacks who are always bombing forward, overlapping with the wingers. The interesting bit I noticed was when they had that torrid spell early in 2nd half. Post that the players picked themselves up soon. Banega took the initiative there, and they slowed the game down to a halt. That coupled with the subs helped them stem the tide.

We know Sevilla will be a force just for the maturity they show in such times. Having said that, Inter has enough firepower to do the job.

But first, we got to focus on our semifinal.

Regardless of whether Inter is in this competition or not, it's always nice to see arrogant pricks like Man Utd fail and then whine about who is at fault about their failure.

This one shows how TOXIC their locker room was and proves Alexis, Lukaku, Young decision was right, that is to leave that SHITHOLE asap.

tbh, in a heated game like that, all teams are gonna do stuff like that if they're losing. i dont see it being a comment on the locker room really. having moles who leak everything is, though.

The Lindelof and Bruno incident looks like one between two guys who are on good terms, just pissed at a situation. It escalates. If they were on bad terms they wouldn't even be speaking to each other or punches would be flying.

tbh, Lindelof telling Fernandes to fuck off and convert all those chances you had is a normal match situation.
Sevilla's keeper was in god mode.

Yea, nothing there indicates a bad locker room. It's just 2 players in the heat of the moment.

Although their showboating was fucking irritating. All of them - the front 3 and Bruno and Pogba - acting like they are prime Ronaldo with the way they were passing around, showing tricks, and all. I don't know if this is a regular feature of their games, but makes me want to put up Matrix there to show them their place.

Everyone hates Man U fans, because they act like Man U is still the best club in the world and they are really arrogant. But to be honest they are on good tracks to be back to the elite with their current young squad. Not sure if OGS is the best pick for their bench, but they have a lot of potential upfront and adding Sancho would make it even better.
At the back they have some troubles mainly on the left where they have just Shaw and Williams, also De Gea is after bad season, but getting new class left back should help them a lot.
If they get few new players they could become very dangerous team. The question is if they management is competent enough to do that, because recently there were rumors that they can get Douglas Costa and such transfers can turn them back to the banter era.

I believe they should invest in Centerbacks and (big controversial take incoming) goalkeeper also. Wan-Bissaka and Williams are good enough, I believe. Fred isn't really what they strive for, either, and while their attack is packed, I believe Rashford and Martial are both best suited as CFs, not some semi-wingers that one has to play everytime both are on the pitch.

Other than that, it's really not that bad of a team, I'd say Spurs, Arsenal and Leicester have it a lot worse.

60% of their current roster is trash. Unless they hire some English version of Marotta, I don't see them getting back on track any soon.

De Gea has been shit ever since he got his massive contract extension. They kind of shot themselves in the foot here since no one on their right minds will ever pay them money for De Gea and no one can take over his contact.

They do have a good first #11 though if you take all things into consideration. But their bench is not good at all, Mata and Matic are just done and massive wagesponges.
