Isn’t that a straight up lie? 

From the BBC:
 

Erik ten Hag described Newcastle's style of play under Eddie Howe as "annoying", pointing to the average time the ball is in play during their Premier League matches.

The stats show that Newcastle have the second lowest average in the Premier League this season, with the ball in play for 51mins 47secs during each match.

Leeds have the shortest average, with 51:05, while Manchester City have the longest average time in play with 60:17.

The average time the ball has been in play during Manchester United matches this season has been 55:44 - sixth longest in the Premier League.

Lads, it's out of context. Literally 20 seconds before he said you're a great team with intensity and a clear vision of how to play. 

 

 

 

How is it out of context? He's making the point we have lowest in game time?

I love it. It's a backhanded compliment and shows he's taking us seriously (unfortunately.)

 

We're not here to be popular.

 

It'll make very little difference in the grand scheme of things- if they need a lot of injury time they'll get it regardless and we'll all be told it was justified regardless of whether it is or isn't. What Heisenberg says now will have very little impact on it.

Half tempted go stick £200 on Man U to lift trophy at 8/13. We lose, I get some profit. We win and I don't care about the money and go mental.

I can get behind that logic [emoji38]

So literally less than 4 minutes difference between us which is less than 4% of the match, like it's some massive advantage we try and take.

I did a 1er on Man U at 4/6 for this same reason. I‘ll have a couple of small bets tomorrow and any returns will go on Man U and all.
