Ghandis Flip-Flop

Success looks very different at Nice compared to what is deemed successful at Man Utd. I’d argue it’s easier to achieve and maintain that relative success in Ligue 1 too.

Not had a great record with their F1 involvement either. It’s almost as if Brailsford's marginal gains stopped adding up, once people got wind of the magic inhalers

Well hopefully he'll be History once Man Utd stump up the cash, making us whip up a Storm In Heaven, in FFP terms

Takes me back, I was about 8 or 9 on my first holiday abroad in Blanes (Costa Bravo), watching it in a bar ran by localish Barca fans

My experience of Manc's when in the RAF would be the total opposite. Scousers are genrally sound away from football tribalism, but Manc's always have a wierd self satisfaction and arrogance. Even when there's nothing to back it up. .....Oh sorry you said Man Utd fans, so the ones you've spoken to are probably not Mancs

Kid during the 80's rather than 90's perchance? i sorta straddle both periods being born in '78 and as a consequnce have a pathological hatred of both of them

1. Were not getting Edward’s for the reason others have outlined on multiple occasions 2. it might be weird, but him continuing to do his job will be the norm until Man Utd actually approach the club. They've apparently contacted him directly, but as of yet not formally contacted the club. Which IMO is another reason why we should rinse the cunts as much as possible for being utter dicks and playing this out publicly and unprofessionally.

Can see Anderson stepping in at left sides 8 too, I guess it just depends who miraculously gets back first

It’s widely reported that is the case, so I wouldn’t worry

Well you thought wrong then, we had to pay Brighton significant compensation to secure him

I'd suggest Barnes', Burn's, Anderson's, Murphy's and Pope's would class as freak injuries.

Or maybe they'll be luck and Billy Goat Gruff will help them cross the bridge past your good self and they'll be fine

I"m a few years older than you and can assure you, no one not even Man Utd fans thought they were bigger than Liverpool in the late 80’s and anyone who even suggested it would have been laughed at.

I'm sorry but that’s a touch revisionist, they had a period in the 60’s and then were well placed to capitalise on the explosion in finances and exposure in the 90’s following the creation of the Premier League. But the narrative that’s they've always been the biggest team in the country is as mythological as the Loch Ness Monster. They spent 20 years nowhere near challenging for most of the 70’s and 80’s and have been miles off it for over a decade now. Another decade similar to the last and Manchester will be largely blue as kids won’t want to have the piss ripped every day at school. In exactly the same way as I'm sure the number of Mackem's in traditionally 50/50 areas has diminished over the last few years and will continue to do so, short of some utter disaster

Found it quite funny how Neville and Keane released their podcast claiming other teams were doping, when their beloved club has just hired this cretin

It would be truly awful if the rumours about him being up to his neck in doping at Team Sky were ever to be confirmed, not

All joking aside given they could only loan Arambat this year, will they even be able to afford the compensation this FFP period?

There's no way we don’t protect ourselves the same way Brighton did when he moved to us "IF" he moves. I have said this on multiple occasions, even if he does move, it won’t be until September after a period of gardening leave. Can Manchester United have another summer where they don’t have a proper plan? They need someone in place NOW, so that ETH isn’t chasing overpriced Ajax players again all summer

There's lots of noise, but I think the club would not allow him to join anyone until after the summer window closes to protect ourselves. Can Man Utd really afford another rudderless summer?

I take it everyone missed Joelinton's response to reports around his contract, that he expects it all to be sorted and doesn’t expect to be moving this summer then?

Nah she's getting better with age if you ask me

Their right back Williams got away with a fair amount of snide shit too tbh. The ref let far too much go today, I sometimes enjoy it when the officials let the game flow a bit, but not when we're already down to bare bones in certain positions

Would think he'd be ideal, I can imagine there are lots of other PL clubs having the same idea too tbf

My word a few on here man ?? I can imagine a few on here having their dream celebrity threesome (Karen Gillan and Gillian Anderson for moi fwiw) and spend the immediate aftermath complaining that one of them left their wet towels on the bathroom floor. Have we already become so detached from where we were less than two years ago to not be able to enjoy a hard fought away win?

No arguments from me on that, but I’d argue Beardsley was just as effective for us, I honestly wouldn’t change any of our players from that team for any of theirs, with the exception of Schmeichel. As mean as it feels speaking ill of Pav who's obviously no longer with us. Schmeichel in my opinion was just so much better than every other keeper in the PL, Flowers was probably the closest, but I’d argue there was still a sizeable gap.
