Thought he was excellent. Assume he was only subbed because of the booking. Someone mentioned that last time United won a two-legged European tie they won 17-0?! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArabFC Posted August 4, 2022 Share Posted August 4, 2022 I was also thinking at half-time that (notwithstanding the nervous first 10min) that this was the best football we’d played in years. Folk can get fixated just on results, but even though we finished 4th last year, some of our actual play made my eyes bleed. Sure we’ve signed some better players, but the fact we were actually attempted to pass it around a Dutch side made me damn happy! Under Courts we would have witnessed hoofball tonight. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought the crowd definitely reacted to the performance tonight. Hearing the crowd cheer the team on midway through the 1st half in recognition that we were growing into the game was such a refreshing change given how venomous Tannadice has been at times in the last few years. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sugar_Army Posted August 4, 2022 Share Posted August 4, 2022 If memory serves me correct I think me and a few other Arabs might have ripped the head off of something after that result. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FIFE ARABIAN Posted August 4, 2022 Share Posted August 4, 2022 (edited) 9/10's all over the park except Harkes. Smith was also a bit off the pace. Fletcher outstanding in his craft and looks 25. Watt absolutely superb. Knows his strengths and was a total nuisance. Levitt absolutely effortlessly class. I noticed tonight he barely speaks on the pitch, just goes about his Wizardry with minimal fuss and yet again showed we're incredibly lucky to have him. Edwards and Mulgrew incredible. Not just physically but their positioning was top drawer. Sibbald very clever and technically very good. Middleton a great signing, especially happy it's a 3 year deal. McGrath in for Harkes next week and probably Behich for Sheep, however Sheep was superb as well tonight.

ArabFundamentalist Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 (edited) Football is so beautiful. The Levitt pass, the control, the back heel and the finish. What an absolute joy to watch. Whatever happens in this tie I will never forget the thrill of witnessing that live and in person.

Squonk Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 Credit where it's due; United were superb last night and it augurs well for their league campaign that there was no lack of match sharpness evident in only their second competitive game of the season. It's only half-time in the Euro tie of course, but, even this early, their quality suggests they'll be challenging at the top end of the SPFL Premiership this season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we're going to win the league too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
