    I've found the discussion about the hot/average/ugly redhead more interesting than the match.
     
    I'm eagerly awaiting Martial's first touch of the ball.
     
    Shambles of a game. We spent the whole game booting up the ball high. Martial's barely got a sniff

    How the heck is Fellaini still on? No midfield at all. We just boot it up and if it wasnt for Mkhi's goal we would be down 1 nil.



    Jose majorly to blame here.
     
    you know the match is dire when people here want to desperately see a hot redhead in an average (if that) one

    I'm sure they're more than capable of playing well above your and mine level even on this pitch. It doesn't change the fact its hard to play good football on an awful pitch.

    Fair point and seeing the Zlatan slip was a good example of how bad it is.

    Feck are you on about? Fellaini has been one of our better players.

    I don't think the conditions suit Pogba, he's a thorough bred.

    Still, if he wants to be the best in the World, he needs to be able to adapt to the conditions.

    Come on, that's harsh.

    Messi would not play well on a pitch like this.

    And it's not just the pitch, but also the ridiculous fouling from Rostov. They've set out deliberately to unsettle us with overly physical play. This isn't football.

    Its impossible to play football on this pitch hence no midfield, I think were doing well given the circumstances

    Consider the way Mhiki played though.
     
    Phil Jones letting another guy run behind his back...again.

    Seriously guys, he isn't good enough.
     
    Chechnya away for these lot next week apparently. I imagine its like Millwall but friendlier.
     
    33 fouls boys - has no one found out the record for me?

    Counting fouls is more entertaining than the game
     
    Like paddy crerand said, its not the same for both teams. If you get a pack horse and a race horse and ask them to run in this they both have the same chance.
