Round of 16 - Manchester United vs PSG

Who will progress?

United's fixtures between 12th Feb & 16th March:

PSG (H)
Liverpool (H)
Arsenal (A)
Man City (H)
PSG (A)

Is this really in doubt? Neymar, Mbappe, Cavani... against the Man U back line lol.

Got a feeling United might nick this unfortunately, Tuchel is a beta coach, wouldn't be surprised if he went in this defensively.

ManU actually has a chance to progress.

lol wat.  Are you guys on drugs?  I give it zero chance assuming Mourinho is still the manager.  Only thing that bothers PSG are teams with great technical attacking lines... like Liverpool.  Speedy and physical forwards are a piece of cake (that's all Ligue 1 offers).  They see Mourinho tactics every week too.

Man U is incapable of pressuring them high and going at them.  That's why Liverpool surprised them at home (very early in the season without Veratti and Silva).  

Since Tuchel has found the formula (neymar as the 10, Marquinhos as the DM and Di Maria as a winger in a classic 442), they look fantastic. They had no balance to start the season. Now they have very good balance.

It doesn't mean much though when CL is all we have to play for

the fixture list could say

Wolves
Watford
PSG

etc

they're all tough games for us currently

can we beat PSG? for sure, but we are going to be heavy underdogs, obviously. Any other season I'd like our chances. Not this time.

The best thing about this draw is that we can hopefully get some negotiations for Pogba underway.

PSG are unconvincing af but even they should be able to beat this hot trash team

Zero chance is an overstatement, sports. I'm sure you thought the same thing when he played against Juventus, but look how that turned out.

Football's unpredictability and luck can sometimes give the win to the underdog even if the latter plays like crap. We're Madrid fans, we should know that

so yeah, Mourinho has a chance. A very teeny, tiny one. But one nonetheless.

In one game sure... not a 2 leg affair. And a shock for me would be a draw in any of those games.

But yeah, there's a snowball's chance in hell I guess.

PSG is the better side. United sucks at the moment. but it's CL. a good big parked bus may do the job.

Yep. Best attack in world football. Utd don't stand a chance.

PSG are indeed an absolute beta team with a beta coach. Man Utd is trash but they at least they function as a team when necessary.. they will progress.

Looking forward to the camera non stop focusing on Pogba's face on the bench as the goals go in.

LMAO you came second in the group behind them and were lucky to get there too.
They're stronger than Liverpool and will have no troubles at all with Utd.

Ashley Young already making room in his pocket for Mbappe and Neymar

PSG have tuchel as manager that means jose and manure have every chance of pulling it off.

Carrick. Enough said.

Big Red will embarrass johnny francais.

Well PSG are in trouble i think.

Nerman is very likely out for the first leg

That's good news for Man United, but PSG are still a damn scary team without him, when they're not in mental midget mode.
