Ivanovich ????

Luiz special - not this time

Hazard worked for that - well done

I think there coming, maybe another 10 mins though. :)

I think he's played reasonably well - needs to pass to someone when the goal beckons though.

I'd be more worried if I was supporting Boro against that counter attack

Luiz so exciting at the back and on those runs

I don't know that shot was familiar.

I tend to side with the opinion that wing back is such a hard role to play for a whole season, you have to be brilliant as both a winger and a fullback, what we need rather than a replacement is another couple of wing backs to ease the burden.

No, Nigeria didn''t qualify

(Altogether) Oh when the Saints.... lol -------- Now to go top.

David Luiz has gone from PlayStation to perfect, says Neville ------------------------------------- It seems we all agree with that. And he may go one better and replace JT as captain at the end of the season. ‘I have that side of my personality, to be a leader and to organise. A leader needs to be available to give something for others. I’ve had that in my character since I was young. ‘But of course I understand that now there is a responsibility, as somebody who has been here before and played many games, to use the experiences I’ve picked up in my career to help the youngsters.’

Another 4-2-3-1 team that can't score, we'll win this.

Agree that City have the best squad though not necessarily that it is theirs to lose. The January transfer window could potentially play a huge part this year, if any of these managers get their targets it could well make the difference in who finishes strongest.

They have been heavily linked with Lacazette. If they pursue this Mane won't be missed.

Have been raving about him for a few years now, should have bought him instead of Remy, but there were those that said the two players were too similar - beggars belief really

Goes without saying, I want Utd to mess up, if he moves on I wish him well, if he stays he is United's manager he will get no support from me, he is a rival now not our manager.

So has he been unlucky and suffered from staffing issues, will he prove he isn't yesterdays man, have United invested in the managerial equivalent of Fernando Torres? As the future fog clears I guess we will know some of the answers to these questions, right now though I am happier with Conte at the helm than Jose, last season was enough. It makes you wonder how considered Roman's decision to let him go a second time was.

This is an excellent insight to tactical play, and with Thierry Henry being assistant coach of Belgium as well and having Conte as his new coach, Eden's play should improve immensely this season. That defensive discipline that Jose insisted on is a thing of the past.

We threw it away yes, but it is a cup worth winning in name only, completely pointless. We only needed to win two matches and one of them was against Monterrey, hardly representative as a tournament where the winners of six continental federations pit their wits for football supremacy.

The stories have been there from the start of the season, but the longer he doesn't play the more likely the outcome will be that he will go. One of those stories linked him to Milan at the start of the season though no agreement could be made over who paid what proportion of his wages; he is the third highest paid player at the club.

And the home comfort in this fixture last season was Begovic in goal against Mane & Pelle at one end and Falcao upfront at the other.

Or give each other a hug, like Conte and Bilic after the EPL cup game, it shows respect and magnanimity amongst peers. The fans will make up their own minds on each managers performance and abilities regardless.

Indeed.
