Is that correct thought it was Klopp or is that including his time at Southampton
bollocks
I really dont see the point of keeping Kane on at 4-1 after 80 mins v dippers. really annoying, so avoidable

Yeah same outcome for me too. Of course Kane being out is a massive loss, hes a prolific goalscorer for us but Llorente can still put in shifts. Thats why we bought him, because of situations like this. The lads have got to play to his strengths and get those crosses in because I hardly saw that the other night. Once he gets a breakthrough goal, i believe he will kick on and get a few more. Poch will probably start with Son though which is expected to be honest, then change it up around 70 mins. Ive got trust in it either way.
Mourinho is a master in frustration with those annoying tactics he uses. Kane probably wouldnt have had an inch of space because he'd be marked out of the game anyways. So im also ready for a gruelling session of pulling my hair out for 90 mins.
COYS! Lets ave it!!

Anyone else hoping Poch is just pulling Jose's plonker and Kane will make a 'miracle recovery' to break the bus with a hat-trick?

I'm disappointed more for Kane than us wanted him to score up there and kiss the badge reveal a tshirt that said 'I'd never sign for united' etc
We'll be okay as an attacking threat whether that be Son or Llorente or both.
People say Kane being out resulted in poor form, nonsense we beat city etc with Son as a false 9. It was Toby being out that cost us our form

He's only lost once to Klopp.
He's lost to Mourinho atleast three times off the top of my head. Chelsea at Stamford Bridge in his first season. League Cup final and Man Utd away last year.

A tough game, got tougher. But if we can go to the Bernabeu and get a result with a 21 year old going up against the best centre midfield pair in the world then we can get a result at Utd. Plus they have a ridiculous number of players out. Jones will be back but Rashford, Bailly and Herrera are doubts.
Mourinho will be conscious of the counter. I would expect a cagey affair.
What happens when both teams concede possession? I predict that we will probably get bored before they do and take the initiative.
I too would like to see both Son and Llorente, but who gets dropped? Winks, Dembele, Eriksen, Alli? Is Lamela also available?
Lloris
Aurier Toby Sanchez Verts Davies
Winks Dembele
Son Eriksen
Llorente
Alli / Sissoko as impact.

No worries. Eriksen, Alli and Son will pull them apart.

Sanchez, Alderweireld, Vertonghen
Aurier, Winks, Dier, Davies

Alli, Son
4-1 win for us, Son hattrick.

That loss was what put him back into his shell... They were were playing with freedom and clearly enjoying themselves up until then. Less than a year later; mutiny.
I sincerely believe we indirectly blew the wheels off of his 2nd tenure.
Edit: He was 'the happy one' until that point.

I'd like to think the result contributed to his demise, but I wouldn't want to be like West Ham claiming they ended two of our title runs. Mourinho's problems at Chavski ran deep....
Right. Sell him for 250 million and never lose another game!
This management stuff is piss easy!
