Doctor Zaius

Fernandez too concerned with who's he's going to be riding after sacking off his wife and bairn

This really is a dire game of football

Been really good these last few games. Genuinely didn't see it coming but I think he's looking pretty solid.

Play him centrally and a little deeper. Looks way better. Also get him on set pieces. Peach of a ball for the offside goal.

Ideal

More talk from Edwards that PSR will force us to sell in the summer if we buy in January. Current rules, designed entirely to keep clubs in their place make the whole thing a waste of time basically.

I know nothing of Amorim but I hope it's not him. While their are systemic issues at Man Utd, I'm not sure they'll carry on being completely shit forever. A good manager can turn a club round. Chelsea for example seem to be back on track despite being a shitshow. Feel like we've rode our luck with crap Man Utd managers and they'll get something that works eventually. Having said that, id pay good money to see the soon to be Sir Gareth Southgate stinking out Old Trafford. I fear they've got more sense than that though

Assuming they'll make quite a few changes, yet still bring in plenty of quality players, most of which have been signed in the last few years because they can basically do as they please.

Cant even be arsed to argue as to whether Chris Wood looked any good for us like. I seen with my own eyes what he was like, backed up by his goal stats during and immediately before his time here, particularly in comparison to his previous seasons. Say you reckon the grass is green and someone will confidently assert that youre wrong on here.

How is he so good? Genuinely looked finished here

Isnt it Sodexo that run the catering at SJP? They're woeful at whatever they turn their hand to.

FFP / PSR is in place to stop us and others becoming a top club. It's a glass ceiling designed entirely to keep the status quo and basically prevents PIF realising their ambition with us. While it's in place, and the entire system is rigged, then they'll never be able to achieve what they want to.

I think the whole right side suffers because we havent/cant replace Trippier from 12 months ago. He was world class and made every play in front of him (including Ryan Fraser ffs) look more than the sum of their parts.

Genuinely not sure why we signed him when we had just splashed out 40M on Gordon. Either they were writing Gordon off after his fairly poor start, trusted Murphy/Almiron to do a job longer term or assumed you'd be able to play one of Gordon or Barnes on the right. All of which are wrong. We have two quality left wingers, neither of which are effective on the right, vying for one position. While we have quite obvious weaknesses elsewhere.

They should be asked, they should be told. At the very least, we should convert part of the Gallowgate to safe standing. Whether it's lower, middle, upper, or half the stand. Anyone who doesn't want to stand should be given the opportunity to move elsewhere, theres plenty who will want to stand. You'll get some entitled ones who'll trot out the "why should I move I've been sat here since 1896" but that's tough. They'll be drowned out by those who recognise a need for the change in atmosphere.

I was middle of the Gallowgate and while there was nothing around me, I thought it was alright from the upper Gallowgate and corner.

Lack of final ball/quality cost us today. That cutting edge would have seen us at least equalise and possibly go into the break one up. I thought Isak was as poor as he's ever been for us. Movement off the ball was lacking. Gordon's finishing is off the boil. Barnes wasn't great when he came on but he must be scratching his head as to why Jacob Murphy starts ahead of him. Lewis Hall and Dan Burn (who's been our player of the season) were excellent I thought. All in all though, we look somewhat languid and bereft of ideas. Like the squad needs a jolt and something fresh. That's what you get when you don't improve the first XI for two windows in a row. Howe and the players have been hung out to dry somewhat im afraid. On a side note I thought Baleba was brilliant for them. 20 year old and absolutely bossed the midfield.

Sack Fergie, cancel staff lunches, redundancies. A drop in the ocean compared to what they waste on the rubbish that they sign

A sandstone facade might look absolutely class, or terrible. I cant decide. I really like how the main stand at Ibrox is made out of brick. A unique look compared to the glass and steel of modern stadia.

I know it's been done to death but international breakers really are sickners. Full weekend to myself which would have been ripe for watching all the football.

Genuinely not sure why you're upset about a hyperbolic post about Hugo Viana. His attempt to win the ball was woeful, his time here was underwhelming and his career suggests he was never cut out to be a top level footballer here or in La Liga. Either way, he left in 2006 so his footballing ability is about as relevant as patter about leaving the atmosphere.

Weirdo behaviour, get fucked. It was tongue in cheek first off, and that Marseille game is etched into my memory. Even still, 8.5m was decent money back then and that attempt at a header _was_ absolutely pathetic. He was shite and the did fuck all with the rest of his career though, I'll stand by that.

0:21 for the most bottleless, pathetic, cowardly attempt at a header you will ever see. Should never be seen back at the club in any capacity for that alone. Soz if this brings back PTSD for anyone.

Mostly, but not ones that were utter shit like Hugo Viana.

Thought Livramento looked good when he came on against Everton.
