Because you just beat his team convincingly perhaps? I'm not in the Man Utd/OGS bashing crew btw.

https://www.skysports.com/football/news/11679/11882040/pep-guardiola-says-manchester-city-struggling-to-match-elite-clubs-at-current-time He's basically just saying they aren't performing as well as others at the moment, which is a fair assessment because they aren't. Or am I missing something?

What? Where?

Can't drop him on this form to anyone in our squad. Hope for him he is able to perform consistently throughout the season but I doubt he will, which will make way for Longstaff(s) soon enough.

If anyone's a "charmer" it's fucking Bruce All former managers Odin is referring to came in under different circumstances where people wanted their predecessor out, hence why they got a fair crack from fans, unlike with Bruce where we had a manager that wanted to stay who was loved by the fans. I agree that people go over the top on Bruce. He's not the problem, but I think a lot of people feel somewhat betrayed that he's taken the job knowing what that means he's signed up for, against the advice of close friends like Shearer, actively working towards keeping Ashley here for as long as possible. I was pretty happy when he signed as I thought it meant we'd be certain for relegation and thus bigger chance of getting Ashley out….

Bruce gambled with Maximins health at the beginning of the season too. Not surprised.

Ambitious aim

Got a good bollocking from Carroll when he just stood still lurking outside the box instead of making a run for a knock down in the first half, rightly so. Maybe he's just not bright enough to do the right things on instinct and relies on getting clear instructions from the manager.

Me every time I see Carroll attempting to run. Just waiting for a leg to fall off or something.

Clever mind games by Wilder. Doing his bit to keep a direct competitor down. Why would he advocate for NUFC to get a better manager than we have? What does he have to gain from that?

I didn't know you kept the clean sheet if you got subbed before conceeding. Get in

We have nothing of value to sell except Schar and Lascelles. Unless Bruce manages to con someone into buying in bulk there's no chance of him getting any players in.

Your stupid fractional odds. Decimal odds are much better and easier to understand.

Where there's a will there's a way

They were free, and decided to go back?!?

I'd love a cheaper streaming service of the PL where I don't have to pay for a lot of channels I never watch.

It's not crap though. At this point we are better off than last year. Whether it lasts is up for debate / probably unlikely, but at the minute it's a fact. That doesn't mean Bruce is a better manager, just that we are doing better at present. And there lies the annoyance. While it may be a fact we've got more points than this stage last season, as you say that doesn't make Bruce a better manager. IMO merely quoting the 'Got more points' sentence suggests we're in better hands than under Rafa. We've got more points but this club IS NOT better off since the summer. It's a short sighted view to suggest we are. How can you accuse me of being short sighted when I've actually said it's unlikely to last? That's part of the problem now people aren't allowed to judge anything in a positive way ever. The evidence is above with people claiming more points is irrelevant. Its not, its (however temporarily it may be) better. Ignore he bigger picture, we've got points. Thanks for proving my point in bold. There's none stopping you from judging anything in a positive or negative way but remember that this is a discussion forum. People might have different opinion than you however weird that may sound to you.

The way Everton were diving, pretending to be injured, wasting time was ridiculous. Well done Leicester!

Soyuncu > Maguire so far this season.

Everton should get an emmy for this performance.

I fucking love watching Vardy

Sorry but thats horseshit. There was no fluke in 2012. The football was good and to try and claim otherwise now is revisionist crap. What came after was bad, but we played good football that year and the 433 was about more than individual players. I remember us beating Villa on Cisse's debut with Obertan Guthrie Perch Jonas as the midfield and still carrying a threat. We were difficult to beat and with Ba 1st half of the seaon and Cisse 2nd half every chance seemed to result in a goal. The 4-3-3 only lasted for 10 matches or so until....Wigan? We got spanked at least, and Pardew went straight back to basics 4-4-2.

When you want the club to do well it does bad when you want it to do bad it does well. Can't win with this shit, so fucking fed up I just want Ashleys bad decisions to finally come crashing down on him hard so we can get the club back. Still can't comprehend how there can be 49k imbeciles gladly rimming Ashley every other week. So we got a decent result, wahey, it won't ever get any better than this.Spineless, dumb, ignorant pieces of shits.
