Attacking

[Gabzy]

Why haven’t we seen this delicious Mediterranean combo more often? 😍

[Mr Do 71]

Ronnie. 

[feltmonkey]

Lovely stuff. I hope that's not offside.

[Gabzy]

Shame.

[feltmonkey]

Boooooo

Or not.

We should have been playing Mata this whole time!

[Gabzy]

Mata and Ronaldo excellent in that first half. Hopefully more goals to come (for us) second half. Defence as dodgy as ever so Brentford are bound to score at least one.

[feltmonkey]

Decent half really.

 

We all know what's going to happen now. Brentford will equalise early in the second half, we'll knock the ball around ineffectively for 35 minutes, before conceding a second, and we'll end up losing 2-1.

[feltmonkey]

Don't let Bruno take this penalty!  

[Gabzy]

Inspirational Ronaldo. Such a privilege to watch him play for us again.

[feltmonkey]

He's been brilliant. I hope he stays.

 

Imagine considering replacing this guy with Sebastien Haller.

[feltmonkey]

What was the Brentford guy doing there? Nowhere near the ball, and he just jumped into Ronaldo.

[feltmonkey]

It looks like Elanga had a little sleep at half time, and he hasn't woken up again yet.

[MikeBeaver]

Fucking Ooooosssshhhhhh!!!

[Gabzy]

I… I can’t believe this.

[feltmonkey]

That's Verane's first goal for us, isn't it?

[spork]

Football is so easy!

[feltmonkey]

We should play every game like it's some kind of testimonial with farewells for all the players that are leaving.  This is turning into an odd spectacle.

[Gabzy]

Has Cavani touched the ball?

[ckny]

Careful now, wouldn’t want him to injure himself, would you?

[feltmonkey]

A good win, but Glory Glory Man United blaring out still sounds sarcastic.

[Gabzy]

Anyone here object to Mr “problem” staying another season? I hope with everything in my being that he does, but if he doesn’t he’s proven himself yet again in the PL in a shit team, at 37. What a player.

[spork]

If he can fit into whatever system Ten Hag is going to play then sure thing.

[feltmonkey]

I hope he stays, as I said. I liked that little gesture after he scored his goal, pointing to himself and then the ground. I think he wants to stay.

I don’t doubt he does, I’d say it’s only a question of whether Ten Haag wants him to stay and if Ronaldo agrees with the vision/terms regarding his role in the new squad.

[spork]

Apparently he got Haller playing well at Ajax despite him not being a typical Ten Hag system kind of player.
