United thread 2017/18

[Sir peace frog]

I think they're spot on. We have two thirty one year olds and an attacking midfielder whose biggest weakness was his engine making up our midfield 3 but now they are pressing everyone into oblivion. Something has definitely changed. At the same time we need to catch the top sides who have obviously been doping for years, particularly Barca and Real Madrid. Luka Modric, good player a Tottenham but never had pace, stamina, running power now at age 32 is tearing through the back line in the 90th minute of a Champions League final, how does that happen.

so you think we are drugs cheats ?

when Leicester won the league on here it was the same.

Most of the time he just plods around like a donkey. Compare him to the Rolls Royce that is KDB and he looks distinctly average.

Average?

Carlton doesn’t even look that good!

Of course certain players prefer to just use their talent rather than compete in the stamina stakes.

If they are Pep trained this is not allowed and even the most talented must be fit and capableif they are to succeed in a total football style of play.

Hey if we get another 2 games ahead of Utd by the home derby at the start of April they should form a guard of honour for City...
Now that would be funny!

Remember what the commentators said, this was a heavily depleted Bristol team. They could barely fill their bench and had a couple of lads on said bench who will be working in wicks in the morning. This was not the rocking team that is 3rd in the division below by any stretch.

LOL....... Love it

I quite like being called 'berties'.

Yeah, there's a sort of swashbuckling ambience about it, much like our football!

Dear Santa, I’ve been a very good lad this year, for Christmas I’d like the above.

PS I think you need to ditch the hideous Coca Cola Instigated red colour and revert back to your original green, or what about a nice blue?

Now they're crying about their fixtures over the holidays.

Maybe they're angling for a new sponsor

I didn’t hear them complaining about their first SEVEN opponents, all of whom had a terrible start to the season.

Besides having to play the rags, that is!

When Bryan Briggs said it was a "no-brainer", was he talking about himself?
