United Thread - 2022/23

Just looked on Ragcaf and they're just expecting it. No one really having a meltdown, nothing like this place when we lose. They're just blaming Cassemiro and Eriksen as the reason.

Fully expected them to nick that game after a first half battering. Phew.

So was Tyler

 

[lonestay]

Casimero when fit will make the difference !!!!!! lol !!!

That's the difference these past 4-5 seasons. When City lose 1-2 players to injury it's bad, but the pack is reshuffled and Pep generally deals a set of 4 Aces with what he's got left.

Klopp, ETH et al, seem to only have one set of tactics, if Plan A fails, then resort to ... Plan A.

It's going to be a big loss when Pep finally leaves/retires to collect his old age pension in 2039 ;-)

United failed at being the best team associated with 'Manchester', they are now failing at being the best 'United'... which is probably why the commentators have been primed for past 10 years with saying the full mouthful 'Manchester United' when they are playing, when it's godamn obvious that 'United' would suffice... preparing the masses for the inevitable.

Comfort eating.

The thought of losing to this absolute shower of shit in an FA Cup final makes me feel ill

They're not getting to the final

Rashford what a waste of space along with Jaded Sancho !!

 

[blueinsa]

Fucking garbage and that is being kind

 

[Revolver]

It seems obvious to me that Rashford should not be a mainstay in a team hoping to win the league

For one thing I don’t think a Pep or Klopp would put up with the lack of urgency in his play and his inability to link up with team mates.

Rashford what a waste of space along with Jaded Sancho !!

And costing exactly how much per week ?

I just tried to figure this out myself because I'm a sad bastard.

The worst goal difference for a team that qualified for the Champions League the following season was Chelsea in 2020 with +15, they also repeated the trick with +22 the following season. As far as my 'research' goes those are the worst by a long stretch for automatic qualifiers. You have to go back about 12 years to find the next worst automatic qualifier (Arsenal with +25).

Rags are currently on +4 with 11 games to go, so on current trajectory would land around +6.

Everton got into the qualifiers in 2005 with a goal difference of -1 but were knocked out before the tournament proper.

This United team may well be one of the most mentally fragile teams to ever qualify for the Champions League. What an honour for them.

I'm amazed at how high they are in the table, they were crap today. When you look at their squad it's absolute dog shit. Let's hope that Spurs or one of the other teams close in the table go on a run and put them in the Thursday Cup places.

That's a round about way of saying he's shit.

Aged well, as usual.

The Medias talk of a quadruple has gone a bit quiet

I suppose it is. He’s no Shaun Goater I know that.
