United Thread - 2021/22

The common consensus seems to be that they're 5-10 years away from winning the league. More chance of them being relegated.

If Klopp and pep stay around another five years the scum be lucky to pick up any trophy plus no champs league this season there budget be well down.

Much was made of their first half showing, but the truth of the matter is, they were at full capacity just to keep up with us and totally gassed out in the second half.

And were losing at half time! At 1-0, we should've had a penalty and Maguire should've been sent off.

The way the narrative went after the match, if you hadn't seen it, you could've been forgiven for thinking we played against Brazil 1970 in that first 45 minutes.

Their season is littered with games where they were half-decent for no more than 45 mins at a time. All those "comebacks" in the 2nd half earlier in the season were only possible when their opponents failed to capitalise on the rags being shit for the first half. Never mind top 4, top 8 would be a false position for them.

True, but I don't think we can complain too much about non-penalties at the moment :)

I'm yet to see evidence that the Everton one - I assume that's what you're referring to - was handball.

The referee thought it hit Rodri above the sleeve line, I did on seeing the first replay, and VAR couldn't show him that he was wrong.

If the situation had been reversed, you, along with all Blues, would be fuming. Anyway, lets not go off topic and just agree that the scum are light years behind us and long may it continue.

United didn't sit back and defend like Spurs. So that's a positive for them.

But, but, but.......
they were tired after putting in all that gegenpressing for the first 25 minutes.
Have a heart, for having to do that for 90+ minutes against the best team in the country would deserve a pay rise for them all, but that's above their pay grade to put in that much effort. (What do you mean - they already are the best paid team in the PL?)
Ah well, there's always next year for them.

Agree Micah does get loud though and if he new not more about the rags history he could of ripped Neville to pieces with all this we didn’t won’t Conti he ain’t a rag manager or it’s not the rag way sorry the rag way in there entire history is sacking managers till they get it right they’ve had 2 and this city side would rip fergies side to bits.

I'm liking the new 'Rag way' - hopefully a fast highway to oblivion.
