CL: Lille vs Manchester United

nothing much yet.alot of ebb and flow. ronaldo with some good play on the right, beating 2 defenders then falling over. not much to report yet
 
Silvestre is playing on the left. Lille started out well and have had a few shots off target. Ronaldo managed a left-footed shot straight at the keeper and has looked semi-dangerous with his dribbling.

Richardson popping up on the right too.
 
Lille getting a few long range shots off. Nothing on target yet, but still too much time for their players on the ball
 
Silvestre appears to have taken a knock.

dont work for me :(
 
You can't up the tempo when you have no central midfield, it's just long balls and hoping Ronaldo will do something...

They are hardly "playing some good stuff", just defending well.

they are in fairness. they are stringing passes together on the ground and moving us around the pitch which is leading to some chances
 
im not watching the match but listening to the commetory it looks like ruud is alone down there, and henry just scored a goal

Just because we can't string 2 passes together doesn't mean that Lille are playing well because they can...
They defend well and attack when they can, nothing too dangerous yet..

wich means they are basicly doing what every other team is doing towards us,make us chase the ball. its quite annoying,makes the team look like a bunch of amateurs.

Not really, it's the United players who make themselves look bad.
It's not a case of us trying to play football and the other side playing negative.
