Wait....what?

Am I right that as long as the player is medically cleared to play, we have no right whatsoever to dictate how a player is used by his NT in official matches, while we do have the ability to influence the NT for friendles? Or am I just FM-pilled?

The Tonali song didn't mention Sunderland until Bruno sang it during the league cup celebration, but has since been adopted by our fans. That being said it is slightly embarrasing how some on here go on and on and on about them without realizing they are just as bad as the people on rtg they are trying to mock.

Watched the highlights from the Fiorentina - Napoli game. Højlund doesn't look anything like the Man Utd version. Intelligent runs, quick feet, good finishing. Is it really that much mental pressure playing for Man Utd?

Only if DR Congo do poorly, otherwise it'll be February.

Can't think of another player in the league as good at crossing the ball as Murphy.

In his own words. Can't be better.

Since he's a signing that was supposed to go straight into the team, it is a fairly big blow with a month out in one of the most busy periods of the season imo. He's crucial to DR Congo so will no doubt be playing more than anyone on here would like him to during the next international break. If he gets injured again we're unlikely to see a match fit Wissa play for us until they are out of the AFCON some time in January. Thank god Woltemade got off to a good start.

With Villa having played us, Brentford, Palace and Everton resulting in two points without scoring a single goal - is crisis setting in for them, or is it too early?

I'd be more worried if he was happy sitting on the bench. At the moment though I think it's a blessing in disguise for him that whether he likes it or not, we're not pushing his body to the brink of collapse again so he is able to play 50-60 games every season in the future.

Have West Ham hired Man Utd set piece coach?

Doesn't really matter. We need to pay players, especially our key players their worth if we want to avoid future Isak scenarios. Contracts aren't worth shit anymore beyond ensuring we get a fee for players that are wanted and want away.

Love players that are simply impossible to dispossess. Knock the ball to his feet, get runners around him. Goal.

He was desperate to pay us back last season for the faith we showed him during his difficult time. Now its time for us to reward him for his committment, extend this beautiful love story and bring in more silverware.

Is Old young enough to become our youngest ever PL player if given a chance?

Think he's more suited for a super-sub role when he can better use his directness and fresh legs against tired legs that Gordon has tormented for 70-80 minutes.

2.5 years since Ward-Prowse scored on a free kick. Impressive for allegedly the best free kick taker in the league.

Such a relief to see 5 points on the board. Bournemouth away and then Arsenal at home next things could be extremely toxic going into October if we had dropped points here.

Happy birthday!

Osula completely justified in telling Bruno off. Great 3 points. Shaky start, but for the most part a dominating and entertaining first half. 2nd half wasn't really necessary to play in hindsight.

Time to do something Howe

Beautiful play by Barnes, Livra & Bruno

ish...I don't like that we're only 1 goal up

On a scale of 1-1 how much of a soft cunt is Mosqueira.

Barnes and Trippier have not been good, but they should get another 30 minutes at least to turn it around. Otherwise Elanga & Hall on for both of them.
