hmm just rewatched the red card, fortunate to have it reduced to 2 considering he elbowed him in the face.. but maybe he just thought he was shrugging him off
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The fact the defender had him in a bear hug, and it was more a swinging arm than a solid elbow, justifies the reduction.

Rennes have a habit of getting players sent off. They had a Caen's player sent off at the weekend. We are going to have to be very careful at the Emirates.

Is it me or are there a few "salty" UTD fans who have commented on this thread and are not happy about this joyous news?

True. And their play-acting is pathetic.

Great news I hope we don’t start Iwobi and Guendouzi they should be sub. Please somebody tell Torreira and to torn it down with nasty challenges it will cost us games.

I think you'll beat Rennes and go though. This is a boost though for you no doubt.

Should be a good game. I want us to go through but won’t be overly disappointed if we go out, providing it’s not a pathetic performance
I hope we got all out, start ozil auba and Lacazette and go at them from the start. We’re perfectly capable of scoring 2 or 3 past them, it’s whether we can keep them out. We created a good amount of chances against them while we had 11 on the pitch, we just weren’t clinical. If we’re at our best we can score a good few

Obviously Sokratis is suspended (of which I'd replace with Mostafi), other than that, left to me, I'd play the exact same team that played against UTD… and really go for it. Happy days
