The early goal has killed the tie. 

Though it was poor enough from Shaw to not pick Suarez up especially when it seemed like he looked to see who was behind him. He just remained stationery.  Fred in fairness made more of an effort to try and close him down.

Poor game 

If that ref was reffing last nights Spurs City game there would have been 2 or 3 sent off
Unbelievable the softness of some of these yellow cards (Lingard and Smalling)

Solskjaer pulling off a great con trick.  Managing like he was the new Fergie , then signs on the dotted line and turns into David Moyes.

Was it zero shots on target for United? At home in a CL quarter final. That is beyond woeful.

Why are the commentators saying Man U are still in this?

Barca didn’t get out of first gear and won comfortably.

As flat as United were, it was probably Fred's best performance this season. Thought he did alright overall. 

McTominay did well tonight but his dive was ****ish stuff LOL. he'd probably have had more of a chance of getting something if he tried to stay on his feet when he cutback.

So much for United supposedly back to their attacking traditions after getting rid of Mourinho. LOL

To quote the late Brian Clough- "I hope anybody’s not stupid enough to write us off" Barcelona got the win but were they unbelievable? No! If we get the 1st goal it’s game on like the PSG game! Our away form has been miles better anyway. The home form has been the problem. Barcelona are favourites to advance but they weren’t as impressive as PSG in the 1st leg against Manchester United. A lot of people seem to be acting as if a shot has to be on target for it to be a proper chance to score. Dalot missed a sitter and both Rashford and Martial had chances in the box where they should be doing better. 1st goal is going to be massive and judging by tonight Barcelona will give up chances to United. The problem is can United keep it quiet at the other end. A quick side note on top 4. Chelsea are a joke under Sarri. Two wins against Brighton and West Ham at home doesn’t change my mind on that. Arsenal can’t win a game to save their lives away from home and they still have to play Watford, Wolves, Leicester and Burnley. 5 wins will definitely get top 4 for Manchester United. Maybe even 4 and a draw.

Poor Performance from United, but not out of the tie. They seem to play better away from home.
Do I think they'll qualify, no, but have a chance

LOL In fairness that's exactly the way it has gone so far. I still think Jolly will do a good job there, some of his interviews and comments suggest a manager that knows what type of players his team needs.

The signings/selling will be key

I see Pogba's banging on about "the Miracle in Paris", too:

Fact is, if it's hard to turn around a home deficit against a decent team once, it must be twice as hard to do it twice.

And speaking of "decent", a PSG missing Neymar are hardly the same as a Barca including Messi, are they?

"Five wins"?

The last two games vs Hudds and Cardiff are pretty much a given - unless Cardiff turn up at OT needing a point or three to avoid relegation.

Meanwhile, Away to Everton is not looking so easy as it was a few weeks ago; Home to City is always hard to predict and Home to Chelsea all depends on which Chelsea turns up. (Or should I say "which Hazard"?)

MU could play very well in all five and still only pick up 8 or 9 points, which probably wouldn't be enough for top four.

I think he could do a good job, at least compared with his predecessors, and given time. 

But is the former enough for MU, and will he get the latter?

True, but how much influence will he have over signings?

And even if he is given his say, will he be able to sign top players, or even keep his best ones, if MU don't make the CL next season?

Once something has been done the first time, that has little or no impact on the ability to do the same thing a second time.

The probability of doing it a second time having done it a first time is basically the same as doing it once.

Admittedly, the probability of doing it twice in succession, before you've done it the first time, is much smaller, but probabilistically, the probability of doing it a second time having done it a first time bears little or no relation to the outcome of the first time, assuming it is an equally difficult task.

Put it like this: the odds of me hitting the crossbar in crossbar challenge are almost exactly the same the second time as they are the first time, whether I hit the crossbar with my first effort or miss. If anything, it is more likely the second time, given that I've done it before.

Of course, it is harder against Barcelona with Messi than PSG without Neymar, but the deficit is smaller, so maybe it balances out.
