United Thread - 2021/22

Yeah, fair point, but apart from a City victory, nothing in football gives me greater pleasure than the rags being humiliated.

I have already noted on my calendar for 23rd October:

Sick Swan Day!

 

[Tangled up in blue.]

Rag kids getting there arses kicked in the UEFA youth league.

2-0 down at home to Villarreal after 25 mins.

Good

 

[Tangled up in blue.]

4-0 at half time. Entertaining watch.

Even better

4-0 at half time. Entertaining watch.

I watched this on your recommendation so that I could compare with our youngsters so thank you for giving me a laugh.

What really struck me was the "playing out from the back". Unlike our youngsters who, like the first team, do it with great skill and purpose, their goalie plays it short to a player who passes it back to the keeper who blasts it as far as he can up field, exactly like their first team.

I had it on in the background, but your summary seems spot on. There was no cohesion to their play. Villarreal weren’t that good, they just had patterns of play that they repeatedly used. The rags couldn’t adapt to that and got hammered.

Second half was a non-event really as the game was over. Villarreal went into power save mode.

Oh dear.

Oh dear.

He's a useless mouth breathing waste of oxygen, the reason I say that is that his nastiness and spite oozes from his flabby slobbering gob.

 

[wolviedinho]

Oh dear.

Vile twat. Rent a gobs are everywhere it seems.

I hate that club and everyone of their rancid supporters.

 

[GaudinoMotors]

I take it this is the final tonight.
