  1. No wait. I'm thinking of Brighton. Told you, we're idiots.
  2. Man United fans tend to be idiots. We were the better side opening 20 minutes. Same against Spurs. Didn't deserve to win either game. Games aren't 20 minutes unfortunately.
  3. The contrast of Brummie and I talking about our respective clubs today.
  4. I think Hojlund is going to be world class and with Antony back Bruno will move back into the middle and provide him with plenty of service. Rashford can't get any worse. So I think the attack will improve massively. Worried defensively though. Injuries are a concern, but it's the lack of concentration that is poor as well. We seem to concede very quickly after we score which is extremely frustrating and demoralising for the players. We went 1-0 up, deservedly, against Arsenal and conceded 1 minute later. Hojlund scored against Bayern and we conceded a penalty 4 mins later. Casemiro scored against Bayern and we conceded 3 mins later. Hojlund scored last night and Zaha scores 5 mins later. Hojlund scores again and we concede 4 mins later. That's pretty worrying not going to lie. Onana worries me too. Blunder after blunder so far. Even when he's not making mistakes he's standing on the ball and slowing everything down. He's been a disaster so far.
  5. I mean that's pretty much what we've done for the past three years. People think we relied Rashford last season and it couldn't be further from the truth. Absolutely everything goes through Bruno. A lot harder for that to happen when he's pushed out to the right wing though.
  6. Can't afford to sell him as there's nobody else up top except Hojlund. Martial is a really good player when he's fit and his heads right. He's another jogger when things aren't going well though. Bags of ability and been one of the better performers lately. He really deserved to start over Rashford IMO.
  7. Reguilon as well, so three left backs. But that's our injuries right now. You're also suggesting that's not a lot of injuries. That's our entire backline minus Varane, who's only back from injury himself a couple of weeks ago. Maguire has also been injured this season. Sancho being a prat and Antony not available for selection, which left only Pellistri on the right. If Diallo wasn't injured he'd have been playing. Same goes for Mainoo. He was fantastic in pre-season and would have got chances when Mount got injured. We signed Amrabat for more depth in midfield, and he was also injured, and when he's been available he's had to play left back. Hojlund signed, and looks great now he's finally fit, he was injured as well. So far this season we've been missing the following players at various points for whatever reasons: Hojlund Amrabat Malacia Shaw Reguilon Martinez Varane Maguire Wan Bissaka Diallo Mainoo Mount Lindelof Antony Sancho Also had players like Martial who were injured in the summer and weren't fit at the start of the season. Feel free to include Greenwood if you want. That's not to say the team's we're putting out aren't good enough to win these games. More than good enough to beat Palace and Galatasaray at home, but we've had a lot of bloody injuries.
  8. These were season tickets donated to the foundation and hospitality tickets as well. They're cretins. The club is a mess, but it isn't by design.
  9. You could well be right. I don't know enough about Onana personally to say that he could be a hindrance in the dressing room, but the errors he has made so far have been shocking. Probably more than De Gea over the last two seasons combined. It's especially hard for fans because we absolutely adored De Gea but he was causing issues at the back and the manager was trusted with a new keeper to improve the style of play. Antony I do think can be a serviceable player for us but a huge overpay as you say. I 100% back him with Sancho though. I don't care how much a player cost or how much he's worth. If their attitude stinks I'd prefer the manager to deal with them. In my eyes Sancho is destroying himself. He was given time off to sort his head out when we really needed him, and still came back with poor commitment. He'll be gone in January and won't be missed by anyone, which is a massive disappointment.
  10. Club is being sold next month. It's all good.
  11. Yes and no. Rangnick took the Austria job. Was initially going to consult for us for a couple of days a month and then that was scrapped as it's utterly ridiculous.
  12. Bayinder. I know nowt about him.
  13. He handled it perfectly. The only way anyone can suggest otherwise is if they're blissfully unaware of what happened. Sancho had chance after chance.
  14. Because he's had to deal with 15 different injuries/suspensions already so far this season. Add in the absolutely horrendous individual mistakes from Onana and the shit going on within the club in regards to the sale and I genuinely feel for Ten Hag. He's handled the Ronaldo and Sancho situations well. He did a brilliant job last season given the injuries and the amount of games we had to play. Won us our first trophy in years and got us back into the CL. He has a lot more time for me, but the noise will start to get louder the longer this keeps up. He has to drop Rashford and stop playing Bruno on the right. That's the two major criticisms at the minute.
  15. Aye. Ten Hag has had to deal with a wild amount of shite at this club. Not even close to turning on him. He can't get his full team on the pitch. Saying that, the decision to swap De Gea for Onana though could be the costly one. I can't remember ever hating a new signing more. He was supposed to bring calm to the backline and he's done the opposite. He's a disaster. Don't get me started on Rashford. Anonymous since he got his new contract. The higher ups at this club will never learn.
  16. So this is some English troll who's typing stuff in English and asking Google to translate to French? Eden Danger.
  17. Corruption? This one will be forgotten about once they have something dubious go their way. The refs are just incompetent plain and simple.
  18. should try with something a bit less believable next time
  19. Gary Neville has tried so hard to be unbiased that he's become a parody of himself.
  20. Didn't hear it myself. Idiots if they were. He's shite as well.
  21. Pay close attention to the wording.
  22. Miles away. If this form continues for half a season the maybe.
