Recently discovered a rag called Stephen Howson from their youtube fan channel. He's such a fucking tit it's unreal. I just look at him and think god you're a fucking tit.

EMERGENCY!!!!!!

RAG PR MACHINE IS BROKEN!!!!!!
 
Mate as much as I love Nacho, at this stage of their career that is clearly not the case. Rashford looks pretty damn good. He has a better touch than Nacho and looks to have a little more pace. He has also scored bigger goals in important games.
Now Nacho is a talented boy who has the world at his feet, yet imo I fail to see at this point in time where Nacho is miles better than Rashford.

Have you watched Rashford outside the box?

He is fucking useless compared to Ian. His dribbling is poor and his control is no better. Iheanacho is far superior in both these departments.
 
I've been listening to some Utd. fans this morning who are just ecstatic that Sergio may not be playing against them. I already knew they feared him but now I realise just how petrified they are of the little man. What a shame it will be if he misses the game.
 
The media is pretty quiet on Pogba's start.

When a player is the most expensive in history, he should be hitting the ground running and making a huge impact IMO.

Pogba so far has been what I predicted. Some nice tricks, nice footwork, nice looking passes but not hugely effective in making his team win football matches week in and week out. A player bought for £110 million should be the main man for his team, being the reason they win matches and Pogba just... isn't. He's a good centre midfielder, but not world class and absolutely miles away from being the best in the world.

What a signing though - obviously world class, and the best since Di Maria. Strange that the media seem to have forgotten that Fergie let him go, they've paid nearly £100 million - £100 f'ing million - to get him back!!!!
Loving it.
 
They are, but unfortunately I find it difficult to look beyond them for champions. They're a shit team in terms of the overall quality of their football compared to say City or Arsenal, but they have a style of play that's very difficult to combat. First and foremost, they're a massive team. De Gea 6' 4, Shaw 6' 1, Valencia 6' 2, Bailly 6' 2, Smalling 6' 5, Carrick 6' 2, Pogba 6' 4, Bog brush 6' 4, Big nose 6' 4, even Rashford and Martial are 6' 0. That is unprecedented in the history of English football. Not even Wimbledon circa 88 come close. It allows them the luxury of a game plan predicated on little more than lumping in cross after cross after cross in the direction of Big nose and Bog brush, knowing that it takes 2 men to mark either of them, and with defensive bodies then tied up in the penalty area it is almost impossible for the opposition to break out. The pressure then becomes relentless as it did today. They aren't a particularly good side, as I said, but they have just sufficient creativity in the shape of Mata, Rashford and Martial, and pace from Martial, Rashford and Valencia, which when allied to that unbelievable physicality, allows them to play effectively on the counter against better footballing sides, whilst grinding teams down at the other end of the table via an aerial bombardment from the flanks. I genuinely don't see them losing more than 4 or 5 games all season. A shame for football, but there you go


Massive team you say, hmmmmm

;-)
