  1. Milan are ferocious on the counter tbf. Obviously, lots to do with how our midfieldes are positioned especially Sean and Tonali seem like they’re second wingers at times, but they’re a very good counter attacking side. Probably doesn’t help that our wingers don’t produce anything either as well and our fullbacks are quite slow. Either way, happy with the draw for now. Steal a point here would be amazing.

    Jacob Murphy

    Nice guy and all, but few levels above his football this. Runs a lot but seems to make the wrong decision every time. His passes are always behind, often to the wrong player etc. Tripps must lose his shit soon.

    Joelinton

    Because that’s South American football. There’s only 10 national teams so no Copa America qualifiers as Uefa have with the Euros.

    I absolutely disagree. Qualifying to the World Cup is a journey in itself, wanting a national team to play 18 games in the summer when the local league is in full flow and injuries to certain player could affect the whole journey is quite frankly ignorant and idiotic.
  5. Only looked at it during the game, but seemed like he was pushed by the defender slightly into the keeper?
  6. Chill. Only thing I suggested was that Tonali and Isak would improve is. Thought Longstaff looked poor on the ball and Barnes despite growing last five minutes didn’t do much. Believe the other two could offer more in the 2nd half. Not getting three points at home to Brentford is unacceptable.
  7. You stuttering now? Or is ending each post with Chill trendy and cool now?
  8. Isak and Tonali on for Longstaff and Barnes and we’ll look better.
  9. I said back when he signed that he only plays well in big games after winning it all for Real. Thought he was surprisingly decent in shit games last year, but he’ll regress to the mean this season and only perform in the big stage if they make it there.
  10. Eh, was very sloppy and had a rather average game against Peru. Not sure that is confidence boosting.
  11. Back to his season form last night. Probably needs to play Bolivia every night.
  12. Wait what? What are you on about? Medical records don’t prove if she did it to herself or not though.
  13. Jeez. Post a picture of yourself then, so we can decide what type of human being you are.
  14. Froggy, you’re delusional. xG loverboy. Of all the decent sides Man U had the worst non-penalty xG in the league last season (6th). Ten Haag is shit, so is Antony. Agree with the last sentence though.
  15. Obertan was slightly more likeable, so I will give him the edge.
  16. Being a greedy bastard is not my view at all. Actually the opposite, he’s extremely unselfish. He’ll take a needless shot or twice a game from outside the box but, so will half your team as its poorly managed and lacks ideas offensively, that doesn’t however make him selfish. His biggest problem is that I don’t think he’s an intelligent player nor has he learnt the basics of the 11 v 11 football. He has the technique, speed, work rate to succeed but think it was Shaka Hislop that put it perfectly after the WC defeat to Croatia when he said he’s never seen a player beat his man so easily so many times and yet not actually do anything. He’ll basically dribble the opponent, get to the byline and then let the defender recover and pass it back. Needs a proper manager to coach him the basics if he ”survives” the things he’s being accused of. As for being unlikeable, there are a few non-Brazilians in your squad that are on the same level if not worse. Starting with your fraudulent manager.
  17. Will Ten Haag ever try to coach him to actually run forward and create something. The guy has so much to his game except actually trying to go for goal. Perfect player if you’re up 2-0 and just want to keep possession as he’ll do his fullback only to run back and pass it back again. Expected so much from him after his time at Ajax, but guy looks clueless after he has beat his man. Must be frustrating as a Man U supporter.
  18. At first yes, but to break them down Casemiro was doing more a box to box role. Basically Casemiro started the buildup play with central defenders and then ran the whole way up the pitch letting unathletic and slow as fuck Bruno dictate play in the last third of the pitch only.
  19. Immense today next to Casemiro. Only Bolivia obviously, but clearly how he should be used. Big Jo came on and didnt look half the player Bruno is.
  20. Was going to say. Bruno is still undroppable for this team. I think Big Joe needs to be the first one out for now, unless Willock is back soon because the Gordon would have to give place imo.
