Haven't managed to see this as the lad is watching it on a stream, I've been watching Preston v Liverpool. Doesn't sound like there is much happening and KDB is still struggling with his passing range. Let's hope for better in the 2nd half.

It used to Kev 3-4 games to get his game together after being out injured.
It's now taking 3-4 months.
Surely it's not psychological damage he's suffering after the Rudiger challenge

He looks completely out of shape



That’s the fattest I’ve seen a Prem player for a long time.

Not noticed that. Thought he's been decent. Only just back from injury.

That and a player ran a literal circle around him. .Ohh and the ball across to Steffen when he was being closed down.

The name rags originally came from the sign on a stand at Old Trafford. The ‘r’ at the end of Manchester came loose, and started to sag. Hence they became known as “Sag R”. Overtime, due to the high level of illiteracy in Manchester during the 1700s this became the “rags”. I note this explanation predates the others and is therefore almost certainly the most correct.

Looks like Shaw's dad.

Looks like he ate Shaw's dad.

Just the usual pessimism, nothing more really.

And our dreadful record at converting important penalties….Mahrez at Anfield, Sergio v Chelsea etc. Even Ellen White was at it last night for England.
Odd….because our corner kicks are bloody brilliant…….

 

[remember arthur mann]

Zinchenko has been awful.. just jogging back everytime he lost the ball and leaving Ake to defend that side on his own.

Obviously not watching the match.

If it helps at all, the dippers are struggling at Preston - not a shot on target and Preston have had 3.

I’m sure WHU are supposed to be the home team. They don’t defend like this against anyone else. No wonder the crowd are quiet.
I don’t think we are scoring tonight, except from the spot. We have no movement in and around the box. They’re packing it narrow with 6 or 7 and we can’t get through. We miss Berni tonight. We need to up the tempo and stop GIVING the ball away.

Penalties it is then.

am hoping not to fall asleep during the 2nd half

I've set my alarm to wake me up for the penalty shoot out.
