United thread 2018/19

[Kazzydeyna]

Of all City's recent managers, and irrespective of his flaws as a coach, I always felt that Mancini was the one who really "got" City. Got the history, understood how we felt about United and really and truly knew what it was all about.

Pep is the better manager and I adore the cool,bald bastard but Mancini was then, is now, and forever will be THE GOV.

He had that bastard pisscan's number, that's for sure.

Apologies BO I have to take you to task on this one............

We are the ones who inflate the market for transfer fees and wages.

Our players make money, their players make history remember.............

I just fuckin hope the history their players make is similar to Titanic !

Its childish ... according to one resident Blue Mooner. ;)

But my point is, apart from being a sycophantic rag, why single them out ? Manchesters commuters are in living hell where every day they face traffic jams and overcrowded trams and he has not said one word. The Raggy team can't get to the ground in time and he makes it a priority ?

You’d think that the daft fuckers would learn from their mistake and leave for the swamp earlier.

There again, that’s probably beyond them.

Matic gets 8/10??
Dalot gets 5/10!! He’s only played twice hasn’t he?

I couldn’t believe those marks either.

And I reckon he was very generous giving the mercenary a 3.

I loved that from Bobby and from our seats in 328, we had a great view of the whole spat.

I can't believe that the rags aren't getting battered by the Beeb and Sky considering how bad they are in comparison to the money they have spent. It seems that's all they went on about us when we were playing catchup to the Sky 4.

That’s because it is all they went on about. Amazing how the narrative switched in an instant from the sneering ‘you can’t buy success’ to the, well, sneering ‘they’re only successful cos they’ve bought it’.

 

[Vienna_70]

Similar to Falcao, we didn’t consider the deal good value.

And Carlton.

And the mercenary.

And Fred.

I didn't watch rags v Juventus (why would I?) but saw some highlights on the BBC news.
It showed Pogba have a shot which their keeper pushed round the post. I'm sure the commentator said "That's why you pay 90 million for a class player like Pogba".
What? He had a shot that was saved. So?
How long are the BBC going to peddle this thing about "That's why Utd paid so much for such a player"?

I doubt it was a BBC commentator, as BT has exclusive rights.

I’m havin’ this ! Will include a (c) for you :)

where would they be without all those quality players :)

 

[Bill]

What about DiMaria. Weren't we interested in him at the time too but he was too costly for us?

felt sorry for him, he didn't want to go there but the totally corrupt FFP had been invented by then so we couldn't conclude the deal. he would not have been shit for us.

This and the picture of Bobby sat in his seat at ot with his head back, eyes closed and smiling, he knew he had them bastards sorted.

 

[whp.blue]

I remember looking over and thinking
"Bobbies goner have that **** in a minute"

Lets enjoy every moment as long as we can.
