We've already beaten you in a cup final, are level on a points in the league with an easier run in, in the semi finals of the FA Cup and in the quarter finals of the Europa League. This while missing Eriksen and Casemiro for large chunks of the season and playing with Wout Weghorst up front. I think you need to settle the fuck down. Got to love fans of the ‘Biggest Team in the World’ using being in the Europa League as the excuse for being two places below Newcastle with 11 games left 😂😂 You might have thought the £200m worth of new players on top of what they already had might have equipped them for that. But no, they had to play Omonia Nicosia in October so that’s why they’re below us… Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not quite the truth is it. Nice of you to use Omonia Nicosia as the example though and not the two legged tie against Barcelona which ended 3 days before the cup final at Wembley, which we still won.

Sunday has absolutely rattled Man Utd fans 😂 I think they all knew it was a possibility we could beat them, but the manner in which they were utterly dominated from start to finish has genuinely shocked them to the point they’re searching for anything to try and make sense of it. ‘Barcelona, Casemiro, Weghorst, Glazers, blah, blah’.

Again, more fiction. I was simply responding to comments by yourself and Ian. We have been dominated this season by worse teams than you. You're a good side, who were at home, having a great season. There have been far more surprising results for us this year than what happened on Sunday. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Icarus Posted April 4, 2023 Share Posted April 4, 2023 (edited) Nothing even wrong with what Ian said. You can watch Man United and come to the same conclusion you would watching Spurs - that despite their position and the wins on the board, they're not very good.

You’ve had terrible tonking’s off Liverpool and Brentford, but they were basically 45 minute capitulations. You at least sort of competed for the other 45 mins. Sunday was different, and your fans need reasons other than sometimes you’re not very good, as @AyeDubbleYoocorrectly pointed out.

Sometimes we are not very good, I 100% agree with that. You weren't very good in the cup final. You don't use that as a basis for the entire season though. We have played very well for a good 85% of this season, with a few humpings thrown in to keep us grounded. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone basing a judgement on you solely off yesterday would say you’re not a very good team. And you’re saying that type of performance is a not an infrequent occurrence, so that’s why Ian’s statement has merit.

And you’re saying that type of performance is a not infrequent occurrence, so that’s why Ian’s statement has merit. I didn't say it wasn't infrequent. Since the very beginning of November we've only lost 3 times and that was away to Arsenal, Liverpool and Newcastle where anyone can lose. We've won 7 of our last 10 games and progressed in all competitions. We've won 15 games (you've won 13) in the league, which is 1 off the total for last season. From January until the Liverpool game went on a run of 12/13 games scoring 2+ in every game, winning a cup and knocking out Barcelona, who are absolutely dominating La Liga FYI. Ian's post has absolutely no merit. It's utter nonsense. It's someone who doesn't watch our games making snap judgements based on a small number of games in a crowded season. Now please buy McTominay. Edited April 4, 2023 by Froggy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted April 4, 2023 Share Posted April 4, 2023 (edited) I have Froggy on ignore so I only see the quoted posts. No offence, it’s just not a Man Utd forum and I can’t be bothered with it. All I’m saying is that Man Utd don’t come across as a top team when I watch them. Of course I don’t know as much as their own fans, but then again I’m not biased in their favour either. As I said, we should stop talking about Man Utd now.

BergenMagpie Posted April 4, 2023 Share Posted April 4, 2023 (edited) Kinda happy with our remaining games. In the reverse fixtures we took 25/33 points with a 21-4 GD. Many tough games, but they suit us more than playing against a Bournemouth who sits deep all game. Edited April 4, 2023 by BergenMagpie Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted April 4, 2023 Share Posted April 4, 2023 On 03/04/2023 at 04:07, Stottie said: We've now scored the same number of goals as Man U and conceded half as many. Yet the general consensus is that they've been nailed on for Top 4 for weeks. They are playing a striker who looks genuinely worse than Chris Wood. At least Chris Wood touched the ball. Their key men are a combative midfielder who's been sent off twice and a (great) wide forward whose even-for-him hot streak looks like it's ended. The best thing they have going for them is their points already on the board. For us (and Man U), it's likely 15 points will do it, four wins and three draws from eleven matches. It's preferable some come from the Tottenham and Brighton games, but not essential. We could lose them both and it probably won't matter so long as we win some of the other games. I'm sure we'll get there. Four more wins. That's all we need. 65 points has only been enough for 4th twice in the last 10 years and the team that got 4th got more points than that. 22 hours ago, The Fountain said: 65 pts might be wishful thinking for a CL place. 70 pts for me 6 wins 2 draws. Aye. 6W, 2D, 3L even feels like too many defeats based on our performance this season. 5W, 5D, 1L also achievable. Keep everybody fit and I think we do it.

The Fountain Posted April 4, 2023 Share Posted April 4, 2023 12 hours ago, Interpolic said: Yeah he was quite patronising there, continuing the Man Utd tone from yesterday. "Longstaff and Willock are good players and they're good lads, but the Man Utd midfield shouldn't be getting overran by them". I'm happy with people continuing to underestimate us but it is annoying when professional pundits are that lazy yet speak with so much conviction about a subject they're clearly not on top of. I love the fact that they think we have shit players. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Us v Man United Us v Brentford Man United v Brentford Spurs v Brighton Brighton v Brentford City v Liverpool Chelsea v Liverpool Liverpool v Arsenal So far so good. Midweek wish list (other than the obvious)... Man United and Brentford to draw (we don't want Brentford carrying too much confidence into Saturday). Liverpool to drop points at Chelsea. To a lesser extent, Villa to drop points at Leicester. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
