Plastic fantastic. All those shirts to prove he nearly went once.

Even the shirts are not real. Its some kind of screen saver.

I know a photo is but a moment in time, but for the body language of several of em to look like this all at once, just even walking out, is heartwarming. Big Phil was up for it though.

They look like I would if I had to wear that shite.

 

[The perfect fumble]

Don't give up so easily, if we try harder they could be even shitter.

(Is that a word shitter)

It's a place and they're on it.

I think it's time we sought legal action for them to drop Manchester from their name.

They are ruining our brand. ;-))

Theyve got a big squad, but I wouldn’t say talented. I wouldn’t take a single one of their players over ours, they’ve pissed away so much money but got the square route of fuck all to show for it. The profile of the players they get is wrong, everyone of them seems to come with an ego or doesn’t want to work hard enough.

A sacked manager and an interim manager has shown that the players are the reason they are in this mess. They won’t listen to new ideas or new approaches, which is telling considering there are players digging the manager out after 6 weeks in charge.

This new guy they get in the summer, you wouldn’t fancy being him having to go in and sort the mess out. They are a long way from being a threat to us, let’s hope the people in charge at City keep the pressure on and grind them into the ground.

Agreed. Football at the top level is a small world and people talk. MU is a toxic shit hole of a club, its not the choice destination for players, they go there for the money and keep their heads down. That is why they pay such high wages for sub standard players who don't seem to care. They play like they want out. So many like this in recent years - Sanchez, Di Maria, Pogba. They just aren't happy being there and it shows.

They have a massive task turning it round as they are accumulating shit players and when they buy a decent player they turn them to shit.

BOING

 

[Manchester_lalala]

I’m becoming less bothered by them they shitter they get. After the loss yesterday, I wasn’t half as happy as I would a few years ago. They’re becoming irrelevant to me, we’re just so far ahead of them now I couldn’t give a fuck about them.

 

[TonyM]

Or maybe Ronaldo has poisoned the dressing room and that is the problem

I agree that he is most likely very hard to work with but if he was in a decent squad, under a strong manager and all he had to do was wallow in the glory of scoring a shitload of goals with the minimum of effort, he'd be much easier to handle.

I'm glad we never got to try it but I bet Ronaldo at City would not have been poisonous at all. People might have likened him to the likes of Lampard or Vieira and having a future as a great manager ahead.

I know what your saying blue but don't let them get away with it that easy.
I wasn't that bothered about it either but I still sung "Mind the Gap" for a good twenty minutes just in case my rag neighbours missed the result.

 

[Brightwell’s left peg]

I despise the rags as much as the next man, but I do feel there’s a lack of consistency.

We all heralded 100 year old Captain Tom, and he received a knighthood, just for walking around a home, whereas the rags had Ronaldo and Cavani up front yesterday. They’re almost as old as the Captain was, but are being ridiculed for walking around the OT pitch?

Maybe we could trademark the name Manchester

 

[BringBackSwales]

I note Slimon stones highlighted it was Rag Nick’s first loss. Given their previous games under him were palace, young boys, Norwich, Burnley and Newcastle, including 2 draws, I am sure he must be very fucking proud

 

[Musselburgh Blue]

It was a city master plan that's for sure £60 odd million for two years haha you're having a laugh

See that bit in the video where he goes "ssshhhh ssshhhh ssshhh" and the rabid muppets behind him are squawking with his silly smug face on the camera... I actually felt mortified and embarrassed. What a helmet.

I checked the result on Sky App. I noticed at the end of the game they had in capitals. "RAGNICKS UNBEATEN RUN COMES TO AN END"

While true, it sounds much better than it actually was considering who they had played and the manner of the games.... Had to laugh

 

[Ancient Citizen]

It was heartwarming to see Stan Laurel getting a run out again in the Rags back line.
Not seen him for a while, thought he may have taken up male modelling as a sideline.

They really are shit though, strolling around, not tackling, faces like boiled shite,
I don't think they like it very much over there.

Yes its a word as in the rags are going down the shitter

The shithole is only a mile up Oswald Road

You misspelt Greatstone Road.

I didn't see all the game but from what I saw Jones was far from the problem. He played ok and although his defensive header fell straight to a Wolves player there was no one anywhere near him on the edge of the box. Where was McFred?

Their biggest problem for me is that they don't have anyone in any kind of form right now. In the past when they've played rubbish they have had a striker scoring or a sub scoring 3 in two games (before being bummed off to Sunderland). They aren't making simple passes and they seem to be blaming each other. Rashford's game has fallen off a cliff and it feels like they are trying to rush everything without having the technical ability to have enough control. I'd say ironically that they are really missing Pogba in midfield as although he often plays for the highlights reel he can also do the simple things alright
