Wake up call.

Good reminder to the squad that they are not there yet, long way to go.

Re: Manchester United - News, Developments & Season

So what's your point Bigpokey? United should have opted to lose the final or you are the one that will tell Manchester United the importance of any trophy? Prepare for what's coming. Go and tell Ole or Potter or even the one that kept winning it, Guardiola that it's not important when trophies won ...

Re: Manchester United - News, Developments & Season

Naive red card for Casemiro. Every player gets told (even at Sunday league level): "Do not raise your hands" (because it makes it look worse than it actually is). I think it was a harsh red card nonetheless (should have been a yellow at most). Well done to Antony for over-reacting and sta...

Re: FC Barcelona: Football thread

Watching the game vs Sevilla, Barcelona leading 3-0.

They playing some decent stuff, but Sevilla don't look threatening at all, Barcelona has a lot of time on the ball, but still look very vulnerable at the back.

So Barcelona is leading the league by 8 points.
Not too bad

Re: Manchester United - News, Developments & Season

I recall saying several months ago that perhaps I was clutching at straws, but that Man Utd's precipitous decline in form seemed to coincide with Greenwood's arrest. It is often forgotten that Man Utd started last season in red hot form, scored 11 goals in their first 4 games, and Greenwood scored ...

Re: Manchester United - News, Developments & Season

Man Utd has a long tradition of excellent wingers: Best, Kanchelskis, Giggs, Ronaldo etc. So far Antony gives me memories of Memphis Depay more than he does Giggs. I am not sure what he excels at (except giving the ball away, running into dead ends, and turning into opposition players). So far he d...

Re: Manchester United - News, Developments & Season

Before the game i hoped for a draw, which is what i thought would have been fair result for United. I was worried about another 6-3 defeat like the one vs City. As someone mentioned, not title winning material yet, maybe need a few more better players. At the start of the the season this Man United ...

United playing very well against their city rivals and current best team in English football underlines the progress made so far in the past few months. That's not saying much because Ole whooped Man City many times. The difference here so far is in the actual performance and match control. Well do...

Re: Liverpool - Football Thread

Another guy who left a big hole but is not mentioned a lot is Wijnaldum. His role, athleticism, and level of availability has yet to be properly replaced. I am now thinking that maybe Klopp has decided to change his whole system so that its different to the set up when those guys like Mane and Wijn...
