to be fair, he's done pretty well this season. Not built like a CB, but a very intelligent footballer. And it helps that he's partnered up with the best CB of this PL season, of course.

Well that was fast. Should be a wide open game now.

He has been doing well, I agree. But he's a good midfielder and it's a waste to have him in the back. Plus, he's not the fastest player. It would be good if United could sign a bigger, faster CB. However, at the moment United's defence isn't the problem, it's the creativity upfront.

That should pretty much be it for United. Don't see them scoring 2 more goals.

Too early for that, I think. United could have easily been ahead 2-1 if Fellaini had scored a few minutes ago. Still 60 minutes to play.

Fellaini started? Wrap it up.

United have nothing besides Marital and Wolfsburg advance with a draw. I doubt United get more than 2 more chances the rest of the match, let alone goals.

It's the worst situation for United ... Wolfsburg can just sit back and defend their lead while United has to score goals. They can't score if the other team sits back and just gives them the ball, we've seen it numerous times this season.

This one is over.

Wolfsburg can advance with a draw, but United can also advance with a loss if CSKA beat PSV.

I give PSV about a 0.5% chance of losing. I guess now we see what happens when United try to attack, they get destroyed in the back giving up quality chances. Lucky to not be down 3-1 but De Gea bails them out.

Wow, Mata didn't even touch the ball. That was not offside. United robbed of a goal after Schurrle and Dante complained to the linesman

nah that was clearly offside to me. Mata didn't touch the ball but he clearly interfered with the play and Benaglio obviously reacted to him. It was weird that the linesman needed approximately 47 minutes with his decision, but yeah, that's offside.

Carrick has to come on for Schweinsteiger, who has been horrible today. Have to hope that Wolfsburg doesn't park the bus, otherwise this is mission impossible for United.

Ah yeah I forgot that they implemented that offside rule this summer where you don't have to actually touch the ball, as long as you interfere with the view of the keeper.

Yup, Bastian has been having an off night. Wouldn't be surprised to see him go off. Too bad Herrera is injured

Young needs to come on for the rookie wingback.

I'm not prepared to sit Schwein as he's been decent defensively, but i absolutely want Carrick in. Perhaps swap him for Depay (he's been suicide shoes).

-------- Fellaini
Martial -- Mata -- Lingard
---- Carrick Schwein

Lol United are blessed. I don't know if I'd wanna go thru if I were a United fan because they'll probably get crushed but no doubt that beats Europa League.
