Still waiting for my football team to play well in a competitive football match since September 2021. Feels very nice.

By Vini.lad Go To PostAre we going to have to watch Haalands dad every game now?Just you wait 'til the Manchester derby, m9.
I quite liked Lisandros passing from out of defence. They were accurate and most importantly he didn't need lots of touches to settle himself. It allowed for much quicker distribution and progression to midfield. Couple that with Maguire's impressive cross field passing ability and we've the potential to be very threatening at building attacks.
Unfortunately, we can't do anything with that ball progression ability whilst our midfielders are creative black holes. Neither can progress the ball up the pitch effectively through carrying or oassing, nor can they shield the defence. Fred is quite good as a shuttling 8 who can link midfield and attack. But he isn't a progressor from deep. McTominay isn't a PL level footballer.
We saw the building blocks of some good ideas today, but as long as those two midfielders are in place we'll never move on to a higher level.

Honestly, I think he’d be a good signing. That dude can always provide some attacking danger and they could use a little bite so to speak. A PL vet who isn’t just another ETH former player. Makes a lot of sense. I assume they’ll have to pay like €15m or something but eventually get it done.
By Laboured Go To PostNo. I'm fine thanks.but on deadline day...

i mean... i'd rather have arnautovic as a nine than rashford.
but that's still putting the bar very low--especially if you're united.

Me and odd am football expert.
By n8 dogg Go To PostScum fucked himself out of points because of course he bet against Conte
By WoodenLung Go To PostMe and odd am football expert.4 exact is ridiculous
By n8 dogg Go To Post18 in the Superbru league. Who is Batman? I know who the rest are.
I’m scared of that guy, he’s gonna win it this year
Martinez, Malacia and Eriksen are all sensible signings. Two of them raise the technical level of the side and the third is a promising young player who could eventually usurp Shaw.
But we need at least one more quality senior players, in central midfield, to bring the side to the level required to challenge for top 4 football.
Marco Arnautović isn't a midfielder and neither is he good enough even as a back up striker.

St. Juste gets injured on the first week of the training camp, comes on for the first game and gets injured after 10 minutes...
By Perfect Blue Go To PostSo many people on FPL have the team name “Pending Moderation”
Because most of them are called something hilariously edgy like "Hitler FC". And I wish I was joking.
MARCUS EDWARDS!!! What a play from Rochinha, manages to hold off 3 players in the box, crosses to far post where Edwards taps it in.
Honestly I think this Arnautovic stuff is genuinely putting me in a much darker headspace than even our performance today. The number of things it suggests about a club that told everyone it was doing things differently now, from scouting, to analysis, to budget, to basic fucking morals (he's a racist) has me wanting to smash stuff.

The club even fucked up the redesign of the Stretford End - they forgot to add in wheelchair bays.
By barber Go To PostProbably had the best view for a United fan today
Fuck this shit. 3 times we took the lead, 3 times we conceded a few minutes later.
Putting on Esgaio to close up shop is asking for trouble, the way he was so easily beaten on the 3rd goal is ridiculous.

It's ok, he clarified after he got friends in most countries. But this is basically him
