How does that work? Of course it gives as an advantage.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) is joined by CEO Duncan Drasdo and Financial Director Andy Green from the Manchester United Supporters Trust for a special episode on all things behind the scenes at Old Trafford including a brief history of MUST and their aims today, views on INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe so far, and the Old Trafford regeneration.
It kind of is. Lingard should have scored at least one.
I'll take 1-0 away.
Very good performance by a battered, fatigued group of players today. If we match today with a similar performance next week, we will go through comfortably.
United were very well organised and managed the game superbly.
Celta were poor as United made them look poor.
Very comfortable and solid at the back with Romero having one save to make all night.
Just enjoy the win and give a bit of credit eh?
I knew Celta were bad, but not that bad. Or maybe we were just too good.
Ajax will be a handful though.

Celta are terrible tbh. Didn't expect this. If we had better finishers the game would have dead from first half.
Pogba was mint.
Tactics were shocking. We should have capitalized on our first half dominance and killed the game. Return leg will be nervy, that's for sure.

Celta scored 4 goals against them over two games.
Oh yes, a good performance and a very good result. Props to Jose.
I thought Lingard was ok, nice link up play and worked his arse off for the team. That one miss looked bad but in the re-run you could see the Celta defender made a nice block for a near post shot.
Fellaini and Mkhi had bad games, especially the latter.
Pogba and Blind were fantastic, Bailly too par the first half an hour.

Mourinho in his post match interview calls out the United fans at Old Trafford. Hope they are lively.
Excellent game management.
Pogba, Blind & Rashford superb.
Lingard had a great game, ruined by his poor finishing.
Only concern was another poor Mkhitaryan game.

A good professional performance. Blind and Pogba the best performers. Rashford a couple of super shots. Bailly seemed unconvincing.
We've scored in exactly 90% of our games at OT this season. 27/30.
A win and a clean sheet, good result, but could have been more had it not been for the usual wasteful finishing. Celta Vigo are a mediocre side, though, on a par with maybe Stoke or WBA. Can't argue with the win though, job done, but could easily have been 2 or 3.
I often say I don't understand a lot of the negativity or apathy toward Daley Blind, always reliable and consistent, played well again tonight.

a good chance we will draw at home so that away goal is priceless
agreed...can't believe the negativity of some people on here. Ferguson would have been delighted with today's result.
Played well. Should've scored more. But good result.
WBA is better. They're really pretty shit.
Good luck with that. For various reasons, the atmosphere won't be great - unless there's an upset on the cards, in which case the fans will rally.
Jose's reaction after Jesse missed his second big chance of the game was priceless.
About right. Now we better see the next leg out!!!!!
Ajax don't look that great to me.
Couldve been more but we got the win which was the main part. Should see us through to the final.
JM calling out OT crowd like they gonna respond to that.
We won't let them play their game. Their defence is shite. I would be flabbergasted if we went on to lose this.
Boring game all in all. Only real highlight was Rash's goal, that was a beauty.
Celta were shit and we should have won by more than one. Terrible finishing as usual, might still end up costing us the EL.

Yup, he's as frustrated as we are with the finishing!
To be fair, we are playing for a champions league spot. If we play like that should we be lucky enough to get into the CL we could very well get punished for not taking our chances. The result is ok, nothing better.
Finishing was shite, it'll be shite again at the weekend and no doubt shite in the second leg. Thankfully we do have the option draw our way into the final, as I get the feeling we'll be taking it.
The strikers owe Pogba at least 10 assists this season.

Celta are a mid table Spanish side and people on here were acting like we were playing Atletico.
Comfortably through imo. Well score at home and they won't score twice.

Good performamce from the whole team except for Jessica Lingard, i just don't see anything of value to him, he seems to run around alot but his final ball is not even good enough for a team like Sunderland!
This place is fecking mental. That was an incredible result.
Professional result 1-0 away. Just need another goal at OT as surely if they cant muster a decent attack at their home, The deflected shot being the closest, then we should be able to finish them off at our home. I can see a 1-0 win at home as well.
One of the most boring games I've watched in a while despite the fact it was a semi final. We should have gone for a second goal but hopefully this will be enough to get us through.
If the final was at their ground maybe. They have only won 1/6 away games in Europe this season.
Celta were as bad as I was expecting, no idea why so many people were worried about them.
Just get an early goal next Thursday to calm things.
Honestly, hope Celta doesn't suddenly improve next week... Swansea played much much better than them for fecks sakes. Just need to be professional and see these off. Would be criminal if we let it slip against these
