Wait Bruno Fernandes gets to take the penalties with Ronaldo on the pitch?
Probably for the last time though

That's probably the last penalty he took for United

People watch this snoozefest lel

English football is really bad, I don't know why so many people buy into it.

They got drama and many competitive clubs, no doubt, but the overall quality of the football is no better than in Serie A or the Bundesliga.

I would actually say their technique and overall quality are worse.

Are you serious? They both are very well functioning teams. The distance between either of them and this current Juve is huge.

Lukaku said the same, that the technical and tactical level of Serie A was higher than the Premier League (but that the intensity was much higher in the PL) when he rejoined Chelsea, and the media were apoplectic.

Yeah, overrated "attractive" football. Haven't watched a game since Dzeko left in 2015

Yeah. Now it's just mediocre spectacle wise, but pre 2017 2018, it was wery good (again spactacle wise).
It was the atitudine of the teams with "no f's given", that made it that way.
Now with so much money involved it turned into a grind for results football even for the small teams, who in turn turned it to boring premier league.

Sadly people in Scandinavia loves English football.

The PL was better in the mid/late 00's than of today imo. United, Arsenal and Chelsea all had good and exciting teams back then, Liverpool probably as well.

Today not so much imo.

True.

But the PL propaganda machine are second to none the best, and English being a world language certainly also helps them.

Else I can't see what is so special about the league on that island.

Mid 2000s to 2010 was actually great, they had 4 genuine top clubs, 3/4 regularly made it to the semifinals. 2009 what was maybe the best barcelona ever, Chelsea outplayed them badly. Todays teams couldnt even scratch the post 2015 MSN barcelona, let alone the 2009 one

 

[Ronn]

Who?

Chelsea and City

 

[BayernFan]

Chelsea and City

They're good but still lacking something imo.

City are a good team but lacks a true number 9. Chelsea are still quite "meh" on paper to me, but Tuchel is overperforming with them

 

[JCK]

I don't care about either but I think that was good to bring Chelsea back to earth a bit

Dude this is a Juve forum. We lack an entire midfield and left flank and goalie and backup CBs and …

I dislike English clubs as much as anyone, but their top tier is stronger than all the other leagues. There’s a reason more of their teams do better in Europe in the last few years compared to the other leagues, who mostly jusy have one or two teams carrying them. I think that does support the theory that the overall quality of the league is better.

Id say their mid table teams can likely do better than midtable Serie A, La Liga or Bundesliga teams as wel in one on one games.

Tuchel decided to go extra conservative and deploy a third midfielder this time, good to see the pussy tactics fail at home.

 

[X Æ A-12]

At least United lost

His conversion rate over the past few years is like 12% higher and was something like 21 of 22 in his time at United so far. Probably has something to do with why he’s first choice. Of course that gonna change now with Ole at the wheel.

What about freekicks?

Worst thing about his time here. We had one of the greatest FK takers currently in Pjanic, and Dybala who looked well on his way to becoming another of them… and Ronaldo takes pretty much every FK for three years. That alone cost us 5-6 goals a season easy.
