This could be pretty special in the near future. I mean that half was without (all 24 and under) - Ekitike - Rio - Munoz - Nyoni - Leoni

Not to say he’s not been great on it too, but in terms of winning the ball back it’s just night and day from the first half

Head would be on Pluto if I supported Villarreal conceding those two goals after playing that well 😂 Confident the subs get the job done for us now

Easy to say the manager‘s underestimated the opposition or whatever, but doesn’t help when your captain gifts them a goal after 4 minutes. There’s no way they’re knocking it about with this much confidence if he doesn’t do that.

Sensible rotation especially in attack. Think that Villarreal’s poor start (12th in La Liga) doesn’t reflect the quality of their side though. Got some good players.

Your Reds to take on Villarreal in the #UCL! 🔴💫

Mor Talla Ndiaye playing U19s is borderline unfair. Looks so so easy for him. Maybe he gets a senior loan earlier than expected.

Battle of the baldies tomorrow at Kirkby (Had absolutely no idea Pepe Reina was a Villarreal youth coach)

19-year-old Orlando City forward Justin Ellis was shown around the training ground recently. 10 assists in 21 matches in the MLS, scored two for USA’s senior team last month. We have no shortage of young strikers, so this is certainly interesting.

By hook or by crook we’ve won at two very difficult away grounds. Clearly miles off where the manager ideally wants us but honestly at the end of last season I was just begging for a side that would be up for the fight and not be a soft touch. As basic as that sounds it’s so important.

Sometimes an assist is just a generic pass and the finisher has done all the work. Not this time… That pass from Wirtz, combined with Barcola’s excellent first touch, takes 4 defenders out the game in half a second. Incredible.

Rio‘s core strength… looks much faster than when he broke through. Now has the power to eliminate a defender after he has shimmied past him and as we’ve seen he can power past.
