The sub wasn't the big thing, the goal just before half time changed things.
Had their Centre Half booted that cross clear, it would have been a struggle in the second half.

I think that might be somewhat of an exaggeration - did you see Phil Jones at the weekend?
Then off the top of my head there's Mustafi, Zouma, Ashley Young, Aaron Cresswell, John Stones, Rob Holding, Bellerin, Sokratis, Luiz, Kolasinac, Rojo, Alonso, Luke Shaw, Bong, Dunk etc etc. I don't think they would even rank in the worst 20 defenders - possibly even the worst 50.

People like him always strike me as a bit dodgy. I won't say who he reminds me of, as it would probably be libelous.
I know people that know him and his ex wife. I think he's harmless.
I think my favorite part of last night's game was Dele's substitution.
He pretended not to see it for about 10 seconds, mucked the referee around with which side he was going off, and did a very slow walk from the opposite of the dugout, in front of the south stand, and was sung to and applauding fans the whole way around. Was embraced by Mourinho a couple of minutes later on when he finally got back to the bench.
He's got his cockiness back, and it's beautiful to see.

I like how you basically named the whole united and Woolwich defence lol
Could I get you to elaborate on that?
Am I the only one who thinks Eriksen actually changed the game when he came on? Even in the first half you could see our game had way more purpose going forward with Eriksen on. Before we weren't able to get the ball into Olympiakos half so we just passed it sideways and back to Toby or Davinson again.
Sure, he was sloppy with a few passes but players started making runs when Eriksen had the ball ... something that didn't happen when Dier had it.
Saying he deserved to be subbed off is a joke.
I understand why a lot of people are frustrated with him as I am too, but this game was way better than any of the games before.

Or Jose got his initial team selection catastrophically wrong. Always two ways to look at it.
However, it was good he made the change. Also, liked how he's dealt with it with his comments about him apologising to Dier, fanbases can destroy a players confidence than Usan Bolt can run 100m.
The other change that I liked was when he brought on Sissoko, Olympiacos had so much space in midfield at this time another goal looked on the cards.
(thought Eriksen also played well when he came on which hopefully he can take into other games if selected).
It's harmless stuff really, just general div antics.
Tops off in the winter, ringing some poxy bell or rattle, on top of tables in beer gardens singing on his own, just begging for attention.
As I said, the first time it's funny. But the routine wears thin after what feels like the 100th time.

Yeah, maybe.But at least he made the change when it was obvious it wasn't working.
He's thinking "Which one do I haul off...they're all shite"That look ...
We're all there to watch a match, don't see a problem with it to be honest...we have fans in the home end of away games all the time...it's part of the game...
Interesting point of view.
Never change you, pathetic Arcspace tribute act.
I don’t intend to Cunto
You sound very much like Mick Cooper
Another bitter troll
What’s all this then
