  1. Sancho, Ronaldo, or Maguire at Man United and Fraser at Newcastle United aren't even the same thing. of course, the club kept in in house. Nobody gives a f*** about Ryan Fraser except Ryan Fraser. Like most non-"United" fans, I 'm sick of the constant media attention they get. But they do get it. What paper or website is going to waste their time writing about Ryan Fraser forced to play with the reserves? edit But yeah, Eddie and the club handled it well. Also, he does well to avoid inventing problems like Gerrard did when he stripped the captaincy from Tyrone Mings.
  2. Progress will be something like Man City > Man Utd > Liverpool > Arsenal > Port Vale
  3. Easy home draw. Want to see more of the kids. Rest the back line. kids = Lascelles, Dummett
  4. Didn’t see, but so much sounds encouraging… Joelinton back, Livramento, a rest for the starting back line, and a clean sheet.
  5. https://www.theguardian.com/football/2023/sep/27/aston-villa-demand-new-kit-players-complain-weighed-down Aston Villa have complained to their kit manufacturer Castore after players reported concerns that their shirts were weighing them down during matches and affecting performance. Villa have asked the Manchester-based sportswear company to remedy the issue after players said the shirts were clinging to them because of perspiration, creating a wet look.
  6. They didn’t look too bad the first ten minutes or so. But we took it up a notch the minute Gordon stepped on the pitch.
  7. We're much easier to get at when we're down a man. They see the names Schär and Burn on the team sheet and they think to themselves, "they're not that good". But they haven't really watched them play under Howe. (Lascelles and Burn were the CB pairing at Anfield last season). They only rate Botman because they're just repeating what they've heard from clowns like themselves.
  8. I think I hate Man Utd more than any other club, but there no club I'd rather see us thrash than Liverpool.
  9. Had Eze instead of Mbeumo because he's on penalties. Week 2 transferred in Mbeumo. What am I going to do about Gabriel and Dias? Ready to dump Rashford as well.
  10. 2023 Summer (Tonali, Barnes, Livramento, Hall, Minteh) 2022 Summer (Isak, Botman, Pope, Targett) 2022 Winter (Trippier, Wood, Guimaraes, Targett (loan), Burn) 2023 Winter (Gordon, Ashby, Kuol) I don’t know how I’d assign a number to this window. I’d thought maybe I’d compare it to previous windows — even rank those windows, but I’m finding that equally impossible. That first window for me has to be a 10; it addressed short term needs and kept us in the league. But then last summer gave us three long term starters. Maybe that’s what we have in the players bought this year. I’m really excited. I have no idea how good Tonali, Livramento, and Hall are or could be. (Though I do remember being impressed with both Livramento and Hall).
  11. Almiron has been are best threat, and … I’d take him off. Bring on Barnes and switch Gordon over.
  12. How thick must Paqueta be to do something like this. Members of his family placed the bets. Really? Doesn’t the league mandate some sort of training in preseason to ward off this sort of thing? Like flight attendants on a plane? Surely, the clubs must take steps to explain —in the simplest terms possible— that a player is risking his carrier doing something like this.
  13. They’re all benching Haaland? I like their confidence. Guess he’s not scoring then.
