    Man Utd 0-0 Atalanta

    One thing Atalanta won't do is sit back. They're bold and brave. They have five men in the box but the low cross from the right is cut out and cleared.

    Both teams have started on the front foot.

    I quite like the look of this game.

    Oh wow!

    They say when you're in need of a goal you just need the ball to hit you and go in.... Romelu Lukaku's low cross hits Timo Werner on the ankle a yard out and somehow goes wide.

    A confidence drainer.

    Here is Rashford again, running at the Atalanta back three. Goes for one man too many, though, and loses the ball on the edge of the box.

    They're hardly short of options in those wide attacking areas, but Marcus Rashford really does bring something extra to the table. He's quick, he's direct and he has a finish on him. Granted, not just a minute ago.

    Chelsea 0-0 Malmo

    Ben Chilwell must have spent more time in the opposition box than his own recently. He's been among the goals. The left wing-back comes flying on to a cross like a prime Mark Hughes but can't turn his header on target.

    Man Utd burst into life.

    Marcus Rashford is sent through on goal for a shot he side-foots wide. It wouldn't have counted as the flag rockets up after the miss, but it is a solid sign of intent. That's lifted the volume a notch.

    David de Gea is really giving that beard a good go, isn't he. It's cast away chic.

    Bruno Fernandes has a little battle for the ball with Jose Luis Palomino in the Atalanta half but comes off second best to the visiting defender.

    This is Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's seventh home Champions League game as Manchester United.

    His side have conceded first in four of the previous six.

    Chelsea 0-0 Malmo

    Former Blackburn, Norwich and Swansea man Martin Olsson is a familiar face in the Malmo team, although he's sporting a protective mask tonight.

    N'Golo Kante goes on a marauding run through the centre of the pitch, he looked like going all the way until the ball was pinched from his toes outside the Malmo box.

    Well, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was all smiles before kick-off. If he's feeling the pressure he's not showing it.

    We are under way at Old Trafford, at Stamford Bridge and across the rest of tonight's Champions League games.

    I reckon we'd all take a repeat of last night's fun. Bring it on.

    Or maybe something stronger if that's your nerve settler of choice.

  15. Postpublished at 19:56 British Summer Time 20 October 2021

    I'm seeing players in the tunnel at Old Trafford. And at Stamford Bridge. With the Champions League anthem still to come, you've just about got enough time to make a brew if you're quick.

  16. Ones to watchpublished at 19:55 British Summer Time 20 October 2021

    Man Utd v Atalanta (20:00 BST)

    Atalanta are sixth in Serie A, but more importantly they are top of this Champions League group on four points.

    Man for man, they are not at Manchester United's level on paper, but they have players who can hurt Solskjaer's side for sure.

    Duvan Zapata scores goals, Ruslan Malinovskyi and Teun Koopmeiners are wily midfield operators and Davide Zappacosta a full-back to keep an eye on.

    They come into this game off the back of a 4-1 Serie A win over Empoli.

    Ole Gunnar Solskjaer used his pre-Atalanta news conference to clear the air after comments he made about Marcus Rashford last week.

    Solskjaer said Rashford needs to "prioritise his football" if he is to meet the challenges of playing for club and country.

    "Just to get the elephant out of the room straightaway with, you know, the headlines that came after the chat I had before the Leicester game," Solskjaer said.

    "Of course we're so unbelievably proud by what Marcus has done on and off the pitch.

    "And you know what I said and you made a headline out of one little comment that I never intended to be the focus of what I was saying.

    "I was saying about Marcus and now it must be nice for the boy to focus on going into training, not feeling his ankle or his shoulder or his back.

    "Now he can just go and enjoy his football and I think you all know that."

    The 'singing section' at Old Trafford is belting out 'Ole's at the wheel'.

    It has been a feature of the post-Ferguson years at Manchester United that no matter what strife the team has been under, the fans have never turned on the manager.

  19. Lukaku playing too much?published at 19:50 British Summer Time 20 October 2021

    It all started promisingly for Romelu Lukaku at Stamford Bridge but Chelsea's £98m summer signing has struggled to find the net of late, and boss Thomas Tuchel says he may have been overplayed.

    “In this very moment I feel Romelu is a bit overplayed, I think he played too many competitions over the summer, too many competitions with the national team,” said Tuchel.

    “And now he has played the Nations League. He is a fantastic athlete and such a competitive guy that he digs in deep, he wants to win these things and he never takes it easy and judges games.

    “He wants to be out there and win. So I know how much he wanted to have a good outcome for Belgium in the Euros, and the Nations League meant a lot to him too.

    “It was a huge match for him personally, it means a lot to him to play for his country. So he takes it really seriously, and if it doesn’t go well he always takes it on his shoulders.

    “I feel him a bit tired, not that we have a concern, but for me it’s that he doesn’t fully enjoy it without having second or third thoughts. For me he is overplayed a little bit. And this is the key point.

    Malmo boss Jon Dahl Tomasson came up against the best defenders in Europe in his prime, now it is compatriot Andreas Christensen his will have to get the better of tonight.

    "He is one of the best defenders around," said the Dane. "He’s had a great journey and has done tremendously well. The way he’s playing, he’s been a great inspiration for a lot of Danish people.”
