Three draws and two penalty shoot out wins would work for me. I'll take anything.

We're not getting anything at Stamford Bridge. We'll either have been knocked out of the Europa and have nothing to play for and be utterly dejected, or else we'll have a European final five days after the Chelsea game.

Spurs nor us have cared about the league for months. You're going to have to get to grips with that. You need five results for Champions League. Us and Spurs need three.

Ask me in three weeks.

Lovely little training exercise today. Great to see Amass and Fredricson getting starts. Few mins for the senior lads to keep them fit.

I've not slept.

You're here posting in the thread as well big chief.

I don't want to think about it.

We've been pretty happy with the 24/25 arrivals to be honest. The 2021-2023 set of transfers are a car crash. Mind you, Casemiro has been playing well again and it was important to rest him for tomorrow. Antony £80m though man.

You're very harsh on the kids.

Every defender does this. Bit strange from Henry to go all in on the 19 year old. Lindelof was way worse.

Van Gaal got plenty of support, and very few wanted Mourinho over him. The vast majority didn't agree with the sacking. Mourinho got plenty of support but started losing his marbles towards the end and everyone agreed it was time for him to go once we got absolutely battered by Liverpool. There was no way back from it. Ole was well backed by the fans. Still the most enjoyable time as a fan post Fergie, and easily the most underrated manager we've had since then. Limited sure, but knew how to set the team up to play to it's strengths. Asked for Haaland and instead was given Ronaldo who didn't fit into his team at all and it all went pear shaped from there. Ten Hag got more than enough backing from both fans and the board. Moyes didn't get the support any of the others did from fans or the board.

Need to get a pint with you on Thursday so you can see what a true Manchester United fan is really like.

Good at winning the ball and giving it to someone else. I've a lot of time for Ugarte. Very poor yesterday.

Romano just reporting Saudi interested in Onana. Please.

Actually he specifically asked Bayinidir to go long from early on and gave off to Ugarte for constantly asking for the short pass.

You got a goal from it.

Good comparison to be fair. He's tidier with the ball at his feet and more creative but not as good in front of goal and significantly weaker. The physicality of the side is something else that needs addressed.

I've seen this on here a few times and yet to see it myself. He says we're shit when we're shit. I like that. When we were shit and Ten Hag said we weren't shit, people had plenty to say about that also.

He genuinely has been. Fans have been very pleased with Zirkzee's effort since the last game against Newcastle and it's annoying he got injured as he's the only other player along with Bruno that is capable of unlocking a defence. We paid £29m split over 3 years for him. Potentially a very good deal, and at this moment in time and infinitely better deal than Hojlund's.

I haven't heard anyone doubt him apart from faceless fans on the internet. Things have been improving slowly. Goals are a huge issue, and a striker in the summer is paramount, but we've become much harder to beat. Obviously that seems laughable given what happened at the weekend. But you're better than us in almost every position and were hungry in a game that was meaningless for us. I'd be expecting a totally different performance on Thursday. If we showed up and performed like that on Thursday the hope I have for the future would take a huge hit.

I honestly don't think it did if we're talking about this current Newcastle team. Ole knew how to set up to play perfect counter attacking football, but if you took any of those players and asked them to play a high intensity style like Howe's they'd fall apart.

He mentioned Bruno Fernandes mate.

Your board does a good job of moving players on before they become duds, that's for sure. We just give them a new contract.
