Hilarious watching Man Utd lose in the last minute but fuck me, if we finish below Chelsea this season

I was going pre-Keegan when it was really thin and home crowds were sub 20k. Most of the older fans now were old enough to be there then but they weren’t.

They have to change the rules - the current rules have done their job maintaining the status quo but they are now starting to affect the favoured 5/6 too.

Not impressed by Everton’s ‘saleable’ players so far including Onana and Branthwaite.

At this stage in their relative careers he’s well ahead of Longstaff (and Miley obvs).

We’re gonna need 3 here to be sure of the win aren’t we?

Ref already showing he’s markedly inept.

Barnes, Anderson, Hall should be jumping out of their foreskins. Need a high energy and intensive start to demoralise Everton quickly.

If you look closely Hall is actually on the bench.

My transfer priorities would be: 1. CB - critical 2. ST/CF - critical 3. RW - not highest priority, Gordon can play on right, Minteh could come back, next window if funds don’t allow 4. CDM - with everyone fit we will have a lot of MF options, I’d like a specialist defensive player but we need to strengthen elsewhere first

It’s tempting to laugh at them but this will be used by the ESL crew to strengthen PSR/FFP and make it even harder for the other 14 to show ambition.

Offside surely.

I don’t think either were pens, we got quite lucky. The Gordon sending off, dear me.

Underwhelming if true.

He’s just so one dimensional, one paced, has no ‘smarts’ at all. Waits for the ball to come to him, not thinking of his next move, takes an age to bring it under control and release it. Nice lad but not good enough.

He’s rapidly burning through his credit. He’s got no answers to any of the questions and hasn’t for 3/4 months.

Looks like one of those templates you buy in a catalogue for your Sunday league team.

Yeah, didn’t reach the keeper though. Think a defender deflected it out for a corner. Actually, yes he curled one round and the keeper saved.

Pretty pathetic really, did we have a shot on target? Possibly but can’t remember any ‘big’ chances.

Watching Southgate’s England is painful like.

That Chillwell attempted cross redolent of the Geoff Thomas ‘lob’. Obviously not as bad but the same vibes.

Chilwell a weak link in this England team. Bring in Big Dan Burn!

Let’s hope so, maybe the general doom and gloom and uncertainty around how much we can really do within the current constraints will focus his mind.

He’s a goner IMO. Botman’s injury just adding to PSR issues. I’d be disappointed if he went to PSG though, such a shit club.

Not sure about misty eyed but they made the eyes water!
