United thread 2017/18

[abu13]

Speculation on the CAF the A&E is signing a new contract based on him taking his house off the market.

Hardly an inspiring start to clawing back a 19 point defecit for them.

 

[Blueknows]

Talk about an own goal!.....

thats why they'll always be known as the rags

 

[dickie davies]

A scum loss and a city win would just put a big fukin dollop of cream on our end of season achievements. Truly a gap that will never be beaten.

And if anyone says that the premier league isn't a strong league, look at the managers of the next five clubs

Mourinho
Klopp
Potettino
Conte
Wenger

All supposedly world class managers

If you have a squad full of big, strong ,average footballers you can only mould them into a big, strong average team. You cannot suddenly ask them to play like a little football club in the east of Manchester. That is the predicament, buy a few more strong, tall men and become harder to beat, or rip up the plan up and start again. Either way they are now years away from competing with City.

That is so true
Our squad now is so much better than the competition and should be dominant again even without it being strengthened
All of last season's signings have really settled in and can only improve and every player is on Guardiola's wavelength which is a really frightening prospect for the rest of the Prem

Probably late to the party on this one but i'll repost for anyone who missed it. Gave me a right giggle, poor Phil Jones; he actually seems a decent fella besides playing for utd so i can't slag him badly but i can laugh at his misfortunes which are numerous xD



His list of comical moments is pretty large now isn't it. A couple of times he seemed to think he was a dog or another 4 legged animal, turns into Stan Laurel the odd time and gets tripped up by the pitch. Some day's you are the pigeon and others the statue, it seems poor old Phil is the perennial statue.

Throw this stat at them ...........

• Since Sir Alex Ferguson retired at the end of the 2012-13 season, no Premier League team has drawn more matches nil-nil than Manchester United (19, level with Southampton).

I'm amazed they've only had 19 0-0's thought it would be more than that.

What about 0-1's?

 

[prestonibbo_mcfc]

@prestonibbo_mcfc NBCSN is now discussing the points and quality gap between us and United. ;-)

I turned off after the match and went to bed. Have to get up early. Bloody typical.

 

[prestonibbo_mcfc]

when in fact now their 81 points max would only been good enough to win the title on 3 occasions in the last 20 seasons and you guessed it them 3 occasions were done by the rags on less than 81 points

Stop it, stop it. I can't take anymore. God my stomach hurts.

 

[prestonibbo_mcfc]

I'm sure he's the very reason the referees relaxed on that 'groping' rule. He'd be sent off most weeks.

He's that bad, if he was playing against younger players, Yewtree would be involved.

 

[FogBlueInSanFran]

Seeing Crazy Sandra/Brent/Mark Goldbridge saying that McTominay reminds him of Steffen Effenberg is Comedy gold ! Even better this morning is seeing them celebrating the clean sheet last night so De Gea won the golden glove award! Small time *****

He's an utter douchebag but to be fair to him he's often more clear-eyed about where they are than a lot of his Twitter subscribers appear to be.

 

[laserblue]

Gary Chuckle isn't toeing the party line. He says the next best thing (and future Sunderland player) McTominay isn't good enough to play for the rags. (He must really be shit then).

Talk about an own goal!.....

So it’ll be nylon then Made from recycled plastic, how very apt

 

[SebastianBlue]

Absolutely love the Sky Sports headline for United’s new third kit unveiling...

Man United Unveil New ‘Plastic’ Third Kit

[Gundogan's Moustache]

Relative newcomer to city then?

No , 32 Years to be precise. At least when we were shite we could laugh about what was going on the pitch

Football Leaks revealing/confirming that Sanchez earns a hair under £400,000 per week.

Add that to his 8 figure signing on bonus and you get...a poor investment of about £100m over the 5 years.

 

[Vienna_70]

According to a rag in work us two bit berties don't deserve watching the football we have witnessed this season as we have no history and it should be them who play football like us as thats "the utd way"

They are hurting big time

That makes no sense on so many levels.

And they gave away £32m Micky Terrapin and had to pay him off between £10m & £15m
