United thread 2017/18

Their matches until the derby are:

Liverpool (a)
Huddersfield (A)
Spurs (h)
Chelsea (a)
Newcastle (h)
Brighton (h)
Watford (a)
Arsenal (a)
City (h)

So 8 matches pre-derby, 15-18 pts i'd guess.

That Arsenal-CL-City week looks fun for them. Shame they're at home in that CL match, and the one between Spurs and Chelsea.

 

[SWP's back]

but it would be foolish to not think they are the next next team in the league.

Don’t agree at all sorry. Not until they’ve played their next four games and then we will see. Every team they’ve played have been bottom half so far.

 

[SWP's back]

At risk of being laballed a rag; they have matched us on every result this year. Yes, they have mainly played fodder but you can only beat what's in front of you.

Shit, so have Celtic. I see your point now.

 

[SWP's back]

I'm afraid I'm barred for not being sufficiently objectionable.

I very much doubt that.

Cheers mate. Was thinking Poor Excuse for Guardiola!

I like your thinking.

The shit will start to hit the fan once they've had a spell of 3 or 4 games where they only get 0,1 or 2 points. You can be certain it won't be peg's fault. He'll single out individual players or other club employees.
It might not be as dramatic as the collapse he caused at Chelsea but it'll happen nonetheless. He's a time bomb.

I agree they've only played rubbish, my worry is the confidence that then brings. Look at Leicester they started with a good run and the confidence pretty much carried them to the title. They say the winning mentality goes a long way and their easy start might put them a level above where in reality they should be. Hopefully Liverpool can take something off them and put them back in their place.

Hopefully Liverpool can take something off them and put them back in their place.

Or off their fucking perch?

To take the thread in a different direction;
As the rags haven't been really tested this season, I feel that when the more difficult games come up that they will start to drop points.
When this starts happening and Maureen starts to be quizzed about it, that's when I believe that he will lose it.
I am hoping that when we play the cnuts on December 9th, two things happen.
1.) We give them a footballing lesson resulting in a 4 or 5 goal victory for us.
2.) Our victory over them is so comprehensive, it knocks them out of the top 4 and Maureen resigns as a result.
My fingers are crossed!

The peg won’t resign he waits to be pushed so he can get payed off

Or off their fucking perch?

I wouldn't use that rag term.
