Very different games though in the derbies
United play better at home too
A draw would suit us

They are a dreadful outfit can see and hope they lose.

Martin Peters
He is better
He is more involved in games
Does more defensively and is more adaptable during the game
Countinho was brought to do a job but also as a name

I agree, but what is interesting is how I believe this is where our experience can see us through. We simply focus on Juventus. Then Bournemouth. One game at a time. As long as the squad play that way, we will be golden. But I'd be lying if I didn't say my bottom will get a tad squeaky!

Agreed but a big reason we got 86 points last season was due to the sheer amount of goals we scored, the majority of them scored by Kane, Alli and Son.

And a fair chunk of those Eriksen had an instrumental role in. I don't have stats on key pass but one but I would expect Eriksen's figures to be off the chart. Everything goes through him which is why we look flat when he doesn't play and developing Lamela into an option to cover is instrumental.
Coutinho is a MotD player. To really see how important Eriksen is, you need to be at the game.

I think the difference is more than just Eriksen.
We have a defence, for one.
We have a midfield able to dominate games.
We have a system of play that can last 90 minutes every game, sets us up to dominate all aspects and get the win.
We dont have a front three that covers the cracks of the rest of the side and manager, rather supplements the rest of the side.
And yes, of course, we have some real intelligence on the field.

No arguments from me. I was specifically refering to us having more brains in attack. Everything behind the front four goes without saying.

I am just glad Barca went for Coutinho and not Eriksen.

I’m glad, and astounded.

They love Brazilians and knew pool would sell

So if they offered £142M for Eriksen he'd still be at Spurs?

Martin Peters
No idea
But they knew pool would sell
Their owners have invested nothing in the club and only spend what they bring in
Very typical of the American ownership model and it’s why Salah won’t be there long IMO

yeah, because if they don't value him at considerably more than coutinho Levy would be laughing so hard he wouldn't be able to accept

Next 5 games are massive - Including the FA cup in that
We have
Bournemouth
Chelsea
Stoke
City
Can't help think these 4 will decide if we slump and miss out.

Beat me to it by seconds. Agree, 4 away days on the bounce as well including the Cup match. Time to stand up and banish 'sexy' into history bin

Exciting times! I can't wait for Chelski away. I hope to see us fudging knock them into the ground, finally.
