Saw the highlights of their game vs Norwich their attack is deadly with Gomez zapata muriel 

Add in Ilicic and that attack is scary.

 

Good test for the defence today.

Yeah, wouldn’t that be great. 

 

"Our" Strider:

Atalanta employ a high pressing game, though they often take this to extremes with their front 6 players often man-marking their opponent in the offensive phase. Imagine the legendary Pontus Kamark's fabulous job on Middlesbrough's Juninho in the 90's and stretch that across almost the entire team.

 

Sky Sports Strider:

 

Sky sources spotted talented Bergamo side Atalanta in the arrivals lounge at East Midlands Airport yesterday.  Players were later seen at the Leicester Marriott.  Atalanta star man Luis Muriel, sky Sports understands, passed a note to the check-in clerk, reading:

 

¡Ayuda! Estos italianos me mantienen como rehén. Mi agente necesita hablar con el señor Woodward, ¿es Manchester? *

 

* Help!  I am held hostage by these Italians.  My agent needs to speak to Mister Woodward, is this Manchester?

 

Talks are believed to have advanced to move the prolific Colombian striker to Old Trafford, no doubt as a replacement for Romelu Lukaku.  Frustratingly, the Italians are holding out for more than ₤5 million plus three hospitalized center-backs.

 

A match is reportedly scheduled between the two upstart clubs, to showcase their players for the Big Six.  It will be centrally located at the King Power Stadium, to further the convenience of their traveling scouts and executives.

Maguire's been dropped.  He will next be seen turning out for Manchester reserves.
