That picture was telling us if Ten Hag would say, "They played badly all season. But, they still won a trophy."

It sounds like another excuse from Ten Hag. And even he can't guarantee his team is going to win another trophy this season.  He looks so stubborn.

Manchester United started this match very well, but their weak defensive play let them down again, they were leading 0-2, but in the end they had to come back from a red card, just to equalize. I don’t know how you can rate their performance, I even agree to some extent that their game is chaotic, there are no clearly worked out schemes. Maybe a draw is not the worst result away from Porto, but considering that they were winning by two goals, it’s very bad.

I usually don't bet on the 1st Goal market in any match. But in the Union Saint-Gilloise vs Bodo/Glimt match in the Europa League last night I tried my luck to bet on that market. The odds given by the bookmaker were 15.00 for none. Honestly, I just bet on that market because usually if I'm not so sure about the winning result, I will bet on a draw or BTTS.

I followed the match, there were many opportunities for both teams, especially for the home team. But the problem of accuracy in finishing seems to be a job that must be completed for both teams in the next match.

Bruno's red card was due to his own mistake, he couldn't control his emotions and that had happened in 2 Manchester United matches so Ten Hag had to give a warning to Bruno not to harm the team.
Manchester United played very badly in this match, and they were lucky there was an equalizer in the last minutes to make the match end in a draw otherwise they would have lost very embarrassingly again because they were already 2 goals ahead.

I highlight Manchester United's overall performance, they who had been 2 goals ahead could not maintain the rhythm of the game, I think this is a team that does not have clear tactics and if this continues to happen then there is no good possibility for Manchester United in the next match.

Wow, the match was really exciting, how could Man United who were already two goals ahead concede three goals, luckily Harry Maguire was able to score a goal in injury time, saving Man United from defeat. Regarding Bruno's red card, I think it's fair because it was clearly a violation and the referee didn't immediately issue a red card, only gave a yellow card, so because Bruno had previously received a yellow card, it's fair to get a red card. I don't agree if Bruno is benched because he is one of the key players in the Man United squad and he is also the team captain.

I know Bruno is the captain but if you pay attention to the presence of Bruno Fernandez, he often disrupts the balance of the attack. The red card that the referee revoked from the results of the investigation in the match against Spurs was finally returned to him. So the red card for Bruno is very worthy to teach him a lesson that the role of captain is important to set an example to his colleagues. There is no more reason to disallow it, I hope Bruno recognises his mistake.

Commenting on the match against Porto, overall the first half Manchester United were able to be more dominant and Porto looked frustrated. But in the second half the situation turned around Porto enjoyed the game and began to find United weak points with crosses into the penalty box and capitalised with headers. 2 goals were scored in the same way. Although the result was 3-3, this was not a good result for United, considering they had taken an early lead and were unable to hold on to it until the end.

Yesterday's match was very unlucky for Beşiktaş. Getting into so many scoring positions and not being able to put the ball in the net stressed everyone out. Eintracht Frankfurt's second goalkeeper played the best game of his life. A missed penalty, a ball off the post, blocked shots and shots saved by the goalkeeper meant that Beşiktaş could have scored 5-6 goals but ended the match with only one goal. Still, if we look at the positives, unlike the Ajax match, Beşiktaş played much better. There was a team that had the ball and could play a good passing game, the only problem was finishing. If we solve this, we can advance to next rounds in this league.

Manchester United started the game very well, but could not sustain the game later on. Manchester United held the game level at half-time, and when the second half started, Porto were one goal ahead and the game was quite a contest. Although the two teams were very close in terms of betting, Manchester United were unfortunately weakened when Bruno Fernandez was sent off in the 81st minute after receiving a red card. 
And in extra minutes of play, Manchester United scored from a corner kick to level the match. And the match was tied 3-3 and both teams got one point and one point to keep their rightful place in the points table.

Bruno is no longer a youth player and he has many years in his career. Moreover he is wearing the captain armband of the club, that is a big responsibility and his latest risky actions on field and red cards he received, are unacceptable.

This player needs to be taken over the captain role in Manchester United and put on bench for several matches. He maybe will need to work with psychological therapist to figure out what's happening with him recently and resolves his psychological issues.

Appeal in this situation won't work because it is clearly a risky action from Bruno. All referees will give him a red card in this situation, no sympathy on why he did it. This foul can receive a direct red card too, so appealing for a second yellow card is non sense.

It's quite unfortunate that Erik Ten Hag has now turned to a motivational speaker rather than acting in his position as a football club coach by walking the talk with each game, more sadden is how the Manchester united management has to swallow the bullshit by backing him even when he's not giving proving results with the team. What I know for sure is that he will not for long continue to get the backing of the Manchester united owners who are currently not seeing anything wrong about his coaching prowess. But the fears are let it not be too late before they realize and withdraw their faith on ETH about getting United to the top which obviously it's the opposite right now.

The match between Manchester United and Porto was indeed very dramatic, the exchange of goals occurred in the match since the first half of the match began, playing at home, in fact Porto was surprised by Rashford quick goal in the 7th minute and Manchester who were 1 goal ahead continued to increase their attack to secure the victory, but unfortunately it was Manchester United's defense again that became a problem that caused them to fail to get full points in the match,  De Ligt and Martinez I think was the reason Manchester failed to get 3 points because of their inability to guard the defense which made Porto manage to end the game with a score of 3-3.
Maybe Manchester United will try to appeal, but it looks like they won't succeed in overturning the punishment received by Bruno Fernandes,Because indeed he deserves a second yellow card in the match after raising his legs too high and potentially endangering the opponent.

You are right, based on the results of the games, many clubs have ended up like Real Madrid. Roma lost to Elfsborg, Poak FC was defeated at home, and Galatasaray drew with RFS after leading by two goals. These days, the outcomes have gone much beyond our expectations, and the way big teams are losing games in European competitions can give some gamblers a break for the time being because a club we didn't expect to lose could end up conceding a lot of goals. On the other side, I believe Roma is even poorer than the other teams in the tournament, as they only have one point after drawing at home against Bilbao.


The match between Porto and Manchester United was full of drama. Manchester United's defense was poor, they wouldn't have conceded three goals after leading by two. To be honest, I wasn't impressed after Manchester United scored two goals in 20 minutes because I knew the Man United under Ten Hags could not defend the whole point, just like we watched last season in the Champions League against Galatasaray. However, Manchester United battled very hard for a draw with Porto, Harry Maguire coming off the bench to level the score. I don't think Fernandes is ready to play for Manchester United this season, he was sent off against Porto for another red card.

Last night performance by Manchester united sums the whole of their season so far, because right now I actually don't know where Manchester united is heading to under the leadership of Eric ten hang, why would they score two early goals and made the fans of Manchester united to believe that they have turn a new leaf, only to show that nothing has changed by conceding three goals in the remaining hours of the game, and to make matter worse Bruno Fernandes isn't helping matters with this red card he took in this match, because it's now a back to back red card he has gotten so far.

And in my opinion they were just lucky to be going home with a point to be honest here, and if they continue with this vein of form, they might not even qualify for a place in the uefa conference league next season, because this current Manchester united team am seeing so are getting worse as the days goes by under the leadership of Eric ten hang, so something needs to be done about it, in order to stop this continuous decline of Manchester united.

That's right, Bruno Fernandes has lost control when the team's performance has not improved and he feels frustrated so he does things that are detrimental or out of control.
Bruno Fernandez has done this several times, even though he is the team captain but he seems unable to control his emotions, a captain who is unable to guide other players to be able to rise on the field is not a good example and it is detrimental to the team.
Regardless of what happened on the field, it must be admitted that Man United's performance was very bad even though they were 2 goals ahead but they seemed unable to play calmly and the team's performance was not well organized in all lines.
I don't know how Ten Hag will improve the performance of the Man United team now, it seems like it will not be possible anymore.

What's the usefulness of ball possession if you don't achieve victory in the end? I really never thought AS Roma could lose against a team I can not even pronounce their name but what do we expect when their couch bench his first eleven squad and played team B other than defeat? There is no magic you can perform to win a game if you're not playing with your best men.

Perhaps, he's trying to sacrifice the Europa league for the sake of top four in their domestic league. They are currently occupying twenty seventh position in the table after yesterday game making it one draw and one defeat for them. They are nine on the domestic league table and the probability of finishing in top four is very slim at the moment considering their current form.

 I don't know the couch plan for resting his best players yesterday until damage done beyond repair and I can't tell which one he's sacrificing for which but Either way, he will lose both if care is not taken.

Even before Bruno Fernandez fouled that guy and got a red card, man united were already losing and becoming frustrated in Thier play which caused the reckless tackle from Bruno Fernandez. It's what happens to players when they become frustrated on the pitch, it's always deficult to control your tackles and because he felt he could score even without checking the position of the defender and minding that he was already on a yellow card, he had to allow it get the better of him.

Honestly, they were just lucky to have scored that late goal by Harry Maguire if not they don't deserve to go home with a single point. The only person that played well even though he missed quite a number of clear chances in the first half was rashford otherwise, others played absolutely nonsense. Thier performance begs the question on thier ability to play against tougher teams if they are already struggling against teams they should be winning on a normal base. Having to score 2 goals in the opening 20 minutes and conceding straight 3 goals afterwards his the greatest slap.on a teams face coupled with this back and fourth red card, it only shows that games ahead will be tough for the red devils.

Like I don't just still understand how Manchester united blow a 2-0 lead in the first, you can't score 2 early goals and still blow it off in that same half. I have said I before and I'm still going to say it again, Manchester united lack a style of play, they lack passion and motivation when they play. If Eric ten Hag had a style of play he would tell his team to defend the 2-0 lead and counter attack Porto when they win the ball. I watched the game yesterday and I was totally disappointed in Manchester united, how can an English team play like this, that too bad.

Bruno fenendez was red carded again and I maybe it time to start questioning him about that, you can't be receiving unnecessary yellow card in every game which sometimes will result to red card, he is not helping the team, he need to be talked to. Manchester have now draw 2 of their europa league matches and that not putting in a good place on the table. We need to see a change in that team soon or I'm sorry Ten Hag will have to go.

It's exciting because you didn't watch other games  But damnit! It was hell exciting, despite wanting Manchester United to win, Porto played well and props to that energetic Samu Omorodion, he made good use of his energy and strength. We saw the defenders not thriving because there was no energy in midfied, and today I can agree they managed to score that equalizer. That red card was worth it last night, how can he be that reckless, the approach was wrong, he should know better. Bruno being poor lately, he should be dropped if possible. 
Will you also blame Erik Ten Hag for this? Man should have just passed the Fvcknn ball to make it 3-2!

The only surprising thing about Manchester United's performance against Porto was Marcus Rashford. He scored a goal and assisted for Rasmus Hojlund's goal. Rashford's goal was quite impressive. He is a talented player and I hope that he finds motivation to lead United to more victories in the future. United as usual was horrible in defense and chaotic in the middle. The new owner of United has incredible patience when it comes to Ten Hag. The players of Porto should feel regrets about the wasted victory, but their defensive play was also very bad.

I also wonder why Manchester United could not maintain their advantage in the match even though the Manchester United squad was quite good in the match before Porto made such an extraordinary comeback. As for the next match in the Premier League by being a guest at Aston Villa's home, I think the match will also be quite difficult for Manchester United to win if their way of playing remains the same and there are no significant changes. Ten Hag is a completely strategy-less coach so Aston Villa will have little to worry about when they host Manchester United in the near future.
