  1. Posting is a big problem for me at the moment on both computers I use regularly at two different homes. It grinds to a halt as I type in the box, and takes ages for the text to appear. I've resorted to typing posts on notepad and copying them over.
  2. I know they're 2-0 up here and doing really well this season but I'm really not a fan of this system for Barcelona
  3. I wouldn't have any Burnley defenders in the England squad. They are very organised and defenders shine there, but I don't think they're anywhere near good enough on the ball for international football. It's a Shawcross situation all over again. FWIW, I have similar reservations over Lascelles although he's improved in that department.
  4. Pogba would be a world class performer in a proper side, IMO. He's never a Mourinho CM in a million years which makes it all the more puzzling that he was so determined to sign him.
  5. When you compare Man Utd's approach to what Liverpool and City did against Porto and Basel away from home it really shows up Mourinho. The money these clubs have now there really is absolutely no excuse to play like an underdog.
  6. The comment after the first leg were insane. No away goal is suicide at this level. I'd prefer 0-0 at home to away every time. Reminds me of the 'Job done' narrative when Chelsea drew 0-0 at the Nou Camp in 2009. The lack of knowledge they had about what Barca were regularly doing to teams home or away at that time was something to behold, the absolute height of cluelessness. Same goes for when Chelsea got a 0-0 at Atletico in 2014. 0-0 first leg away draws in the CL are never good results.
  7. Millwall have been on an insane run but the play-offs are surely beyond them. Barnsley win on Saturday and Sunderland will be 8 points adrift at kick off.
  8. Just before Sevilla got two goals the comm was criticising them for coming and playing for a 0-0. In the first leg Man Utd were praised to the high heavens for playing for and getting a 0-0. Properly baffling.
  9. Sevilla vs Roma in the quarters would be nice to give us somebody interesting in the semis.
  10. The commentary from McManaman in particular has been an absolute disgrace in this tie. Man Utd have been absolutely shite, and you'd never know that Sevilla have won 6 European trophies this century the way they've been patronised.
  11. They'll get another chance to go clear. Early kick off at home to Millwall on Saturday.
  12. Get the fuck in. No idea why he hasn't been on from the start.
  13. Looking like play-offs for Villa.
  14. Any of the Sevilla teams in recent years would have won this tie. This one has zero firepower upfront and an idiot in the dugout.
  15. They tried to sign McBurnie on deadline day, and ended up with Fletcher instead. The lad has scored 6 goals for Barnsley.
  16. Do disappointed in Muriel. He looked a great talent as a youngster.
  17. It's the other way around, tbh. They've look defensively solid since Lambert took over but have absolutely no threat outside of Shaqiri.
  18. Give over, Carrick has been a top top player. Different plays anyway. Hate the bashing of English players because, well, they aren’t foreign. He's an overrated bag of shite.
  19. This Man City team are streets ahead of those teams in terms of quality and style. The only way they are 'boring', is the fact that they are so ruthlessly good it has rendered the league a non-event since about November.
  20. Cheers Sorry like, we're just all institutionalized.
  21. Has there been a post made that explains actually what's happening atm and why we're having so much down time?
