    It was precisely the area you don't leave open. Equally, DePaul was finding crossing angles time and time again despite the 'defensive changes' which appear to have confused us more than helped...

    Rice was dead on his feet. Tuchel didn't trust Mainoo. He also didn't trust Rashford. I can only assume Saka was pretty injured. I thought his midfield selections squad-wise were average at best, and knowing that Rice was playing hurt makes them even harder to understand.

    Rodgers continually allowed himself to be out-muscled. Rice? I'd say if he was at 60% fitness that'd be lucky. Tuchel's a macaron for bringing Mainoo and then not trusting him. What mistake did Spence make which contributed to momentum shift? Kane? Ineffective game, easily marked out of it...

    Not everything is confrontational/intended to cause confrontation. It's an opinion. FWIW I have always had a problem with how these decisions are adjudicated. There is no way Spence is 'trying to con a pen' in that situation, look at it in real time, the guy's trying to maintain his advantage on...

    The only question is if he needs one moer year of development or not. I think he has all the tools.

    I think he is going to take a long look at Lankshear this summer isn't he.

    I believe the point is being debated far beyond this specific forum?

    Do you not trust the police and law enforcement to be enforcing the law? You've taken a preemptive assumption that nothing is being done. Why?

    Absolutely. You're not missing anything IMO.
