Have BT Sport acknowledged yet that there are two teams on the pitch at Old Trafford in a relatively even game?
UNITED Vs someone

I loved that World Cup. Associate the "Little Less Conversation, A Little More Action" song with that from an advert (Adidas I think?).
Nike - the cage
98 had better Nike adverts mind
Brazil airport advert

At 4-1 down, it would be fair to say that Greece need a lightning start tonight in the second leg.
-
World Cup playoffs, first legs: Just seven goals in six games, five of which came in Croatia v Greece.
Make that seven goals in seven playoff matches.

It got called against him against Brighton away last season iircClark likes to grab onto attackers at set-pieces. He was lucky he didn't give away a penalty vs Liverpool.
Aye. I've liked Clark since he has arrived - done a lot better than I originally thought he would after his nightmare at Villa.
But he is definitely guilty of grabbing at most set-pieces and if it is as blatant as something like Mike Williamson did against the mackems that time, it'll get called against us at some stage this season.
It did but I recall that being harsh as the Brighton player was holding on his neck just as much if not more. Brighton getting any sort of pen wasn't exactly a surprise either...

Big up to FYR Macedonia (2-0 v Liechtenstein) and Iceland (1-0 v Kosovo) for turning up with some goals. 0-0s everywhere else.

Atrocious kicking today. Just seems to encourage the pressure on us.
-
At this early stage, we're not devoid of all hope. However, there were some seriously worrying early signs today - Elliot's kicking only gets worse, Gayle barely got a kick, Perez missed a big chance, and Diame is simply dreadful. In terms of the game as a whole, we actually seemed to have weathered the inevitable early storm but lost an awful goal straight after HT (too much space), and then failed to capitalise on our best spell when Hudds sat back a bit.
I still think it is too early to judge this season - but would like for us to push for another CF/#10, LB and GK. Pigs might fly if we get all three. Certainly, the home match against West Ham on Saturday takes on big early significance though, considering their own start.
-
One of the few players who tried to get us moving forwards a few times - so that's a positive. But also gave the ball away on numerous occasions, and sometimes in really poor positions - so that's a negative.
It was a young lad's first start in the Premier League so everyone needs to keep a sense of perspective/balance about him - but it says everything that needs to be said about Shelvey and our squad in general that we are relying on such an inexperienced player at CM.

Statto's a brilliant website but it's very up and down. Wouldn't surprise me at all if it never returned.
Aye. I think this is the longest it has ever been down.

On a similar note, is there an alternative website which shows as-it-stood tables by historical date? Statto.com used to do the job but it's been offline all summer...

Fans heading in for HT already.
Honestly cannot tell

Mandzukic goal has made me try to think of ridiculously good goals in losing efforts.
Sure Hatem scored a class goal when we lost to Fulham at Craven Cottage
Both goals (Jenas, Ameobi) in that 6-2 defeat to Man United were cracking strikes from memory.
Nah. Poor back-pass leading to a fairly straightforward finish if memory serves.
Laurent Robert at Anfield when we lost 2-1 in 2004 is the best answer to this.
Think his one at Everton the season before is an even better one.
Decent shout. f***ing robbery of a game that was.
Bernard-Gravesen?

Ah, thought it was from range but obviously got that wrong...

Holding hands
We need a few more photos of this so we can research it further
Did Waalwijk win?

How you lose does matter though.
This.

Our next two games Arsenal and Spurs away. So we could be in the bottom 3 again after those.
But we only play Stoke City (A) in that time as our match against Citeh is postponed due to the League Cup Final.
And we're not picking up any away point any time soon. Oh look... 0-3.

Was also going to suggest The Strawberry as they've mentioned they are showing it on social media.
