Roses are red.
Manchester's blue.
West ham scored 3.
The rags only 2.

Do I remember seeing something about Adidas witholding some of their kit money if our quiet neighbours don't get to the CL?

I think it might be if they fail two years on the trot Jim.

they're shit but they got it right with Martial, he's gonna be some player.

I fear that's the case sadly. Has more technical ability in his little toe than sterling has in his whole body. Atleast he isn't also homegrown.

Every set-piece Smalling holds his man. Made a career out of defending through basketball tactics.

Apparently that's him 'bullying' strikers this year. Says he really enjoys it. Much like I love it when I can go down to Vegas and.fraudulently screw them out of a couple million quid without getting caught.

Only when Pedro switched to Chelsea did they go for Martial late on.

Then De Gea to Madrid fell through. They would have been stuffed if that hadn't happened.

Got slaughtered on here with people showing me stats when I said they got the better deal with Martial than us with Sterling
He's already world class

 

[The perfect fumble]

They're not taking it well.

Although it was a stroke of luck that after his very good running his attempted cross was so poor that the keeper overcommitting to a decent cross made it look like a soft pass into the net.

Which would normally have been a soft pass surrendering the ball to the keeper.

They do sometimes make the opportunities for themselves, but they are without doubt the luckiest team in the world.

He had some luck tonight with that goal for sure, and knowing United I figured they'd get 2shots on target all night for 2 goals, but that isn't the first time I've watched martial this season and I've gone from thinking United were crazy to thinking he has the ability to be the real deal. There's still plenty of time for United to ruin him though or for him to up and leave to one of the Spanish giants, so I'm counting on that. Plus Memphis turned out to be a complete potato which puts a smile on my face after all the hype he was getting in the media.
