United are shit

 

[Pell]

That article posted above is one of the worst I've read all season.

The United fans in the press are desperately trying to turn the title race into attack vs defence, dogma vs. pragmatism, style vs. substance.

The reason for that is because they aren't ready to admit yet that we're better in every single department, and that United's defence is no different to a lower league team, pile 8 men behind the ball and hope to the other team don't break through.


The pushback this week from the rag media department has been unashamedly obvious, all the familiar faces summoned to defend PEG's decision to play like Huddersfield, even the twats put on Sunday Supplement had the piss taken when they issued their impassioned defence of a Mourinho Masterclass.

It's only going to get more fun for us with Spurs and Chelsea still to come this month for United - I wonder how loud the defence will be if they're 6 or 7 points behind after those games?

I find it amusing there's this general consensus we focus too much on attack and playing pretty football, while neglecting our defence and are naive, while United are the masters at pragmatism, with us being cast as idealists, and Pep as a starry eyed romantic. We kept a clean sheet away at the champions without our best defender and captain, and a midfielder at left-back. They almost contradict themselves; 'United have a fantastic defence, and what a keeper De Gea is, look at all those saves he makes', 'City are poor defensively, and as for Ederson, well he's hardly been tested yet'.

And the reason big Ed has hardly been tested yet?

Our defence is so good.
