Bruno got tired early. Ole should have removed him since for VDB.
Yea. That's one part of Ole we complain abt. His late sub. Nevertheless, it was a good team set up.

Tuanzebe i am certain is faster than Neymar by far. Over long distances Tuanzebe was faster than Rashford in the youth team, so that part of his game is no surprise to me.
I am more interested in watching his decision making and positioning. His natural speed and bad luck with injuries means he has not had time to work on those 2 issues.


I don't know about his positioning sha, but his decision making looks very ok to me. That final Mbappe run towards the end surprised me. That was VVDesque. Ole should please quickly give him a competent defensive coach to fine tune him. Currently he has Strength, Speed, Confidence, composure and OKish decision making (which can improve with more top level games). I think Positioning might need to be improved on and we have a quality CB in our hands.

As for injury, he is still very young do I won't classify him as injury prone yet.

McTominay was good throughout, and played very well on a yellow card. Fred grew into the game and was really good in the 2nd half. He also saved 1 or 2 loose Pogba balls.

In my opinion we need that pass and shot from outside but he was covered when Pogba came on Sha
Don't know why ole left him after Pogba came on

His shots were wayward. Pogba changed the tempo of the game to our favour TBH

Fred and Mctoms did very well. Especially Mctoms.

Tuanzebe bailed us out a number of times as well. Fred and McTominay were quite immense. Martial was probably the worst player but he held the ball and linked up well, and his pressing was on point also.

Good to see Tuanzebe looking fit again.
I hope he stays fit. the guy is rock solid and quite fast.

Lindelof was tired by the time Kean entered. Also don't discount Keane so easily, he has talent despite his Everton flop.

The high line we played aided our pressing game. We can't play high line and press efficiently with Maguire and Matic. Ole should better give himself brain and do the needful.

I just hope so, I was surprised how ordinary Kean was opening us up. But like u said let's not underrate him.

Maguire and Matic can only play against very poor opposition. Ole should take note of this and have sense

I have to give it to Ole for this game. I still don't think he is the man for the job long term but his team selection was on point, his initial formation was on point, and the formation switch in the 2nd half was doubly on point.

He just needs to trust his bench a little bit more and make the subs earlier.

exactly. I don't know why people don't agree Pogba can be a trump card for this team. I feel he contributes far more when he starts from the bench.

I realized Ole might actually be learning from previous mistakes when he brought on James and VDB to drop back PSGs high line a bit and consequently ward off pressure.

The old Ole would have brought in Bailly grin

Martial and Rashford didn't have the best of games but they did well in patches.

As soon as Pogba came in, we improved our ball retention and to be honest, a diamond midfield is best for us at the moment...

NB: I am not saying Telles was bad, dude looked very good but in the long run and against teams that sit back, he should replace Shaw who himself looks better playing in a back 3.

De Gea, Shaw, AWB and Fred were just awesome. The competition for a starting berth is seeing players up their game.

Finally, I give props to Ole, he knows how to set up when the odds are against us.

Ole’s tactics tonight was top notch. He has proven once again that he is not tactically inept. He is a very good coach when given the tools he needs to succeed.

Ole got his selection spot on and his substitution was even better...

I agree he needs to trust his bench better. We could have done with VDB earlier in the game as Bruno was visibly tired...

So you believed that fake rumor that the board was going to sack Ole and employ Poch? The idiotic journalists that reported that crap are known shitposters, very low tier journalists. Ole’s job has always been safe and he isn’t leaving anytime soon. Take note, I am not saying this because we beat PSG.

Not to start an argument but I am happy you now acknowledge he has the tools he needs at his disposal...

Let's stick to a diamond midfield with Telles at LB and Pogba at LCM. Against small teams, I will prefer VDB over one of Fred and McSauce...

Ole should pick any two of Martial/Rashford/Cavani/Greenwood.

Omo I can't count the number of shots AWB blocked. The guy really did well. Thank God for DDG too.

Just painful Our strikers denied Bruno assists.
Henderson is really pushing him back to his former self...

My dear, the entire Nigeria is on fire. Buhari and Sanwo Olu just sparked the flames of a bloody revolution. The people will certainly not keep quiet after being treated so unjustly. Why shoot at innocent protesters? For God’s sake why?
