Isn't it fantastic when we can't decide the exact number of utd players to have fucked up in a humiliating defeat?? :D

I'm thinking ours would have coped. Stones certainly, but tbh we probably shouldnt compare all others to him as it just isn't fair on them.

I still think when I picture us playing out in that situation, the problem isn't the pass. However, for us it would usually be Rodri or Gundo, possibly Stones or Bernardo picking the ball up there. Usually a midfielder while the centre backs are still deeper. They are all undoubtedly better on the ball, which is probably why I see us succeeding every time in that situation.

I guess maybe De Gea should have recognised that the setup didn't suit a short pass, but he's Joe Hart trying to play football here in this situation. And unfortunately giving it to Mangala... I find it hard to blame the keeper when the defender wants the ball and the pass gets to Maguire successfully.

In hindsight De Gea should have just lumped it, but how many times did Bravo shit us up by not lumping it when we started out trying to play real football...

For a start City are unlikely to have one defender stranded among three attacker. Secondly our other lads would be moving to open up pass lines and would move into position rather than stand like statues ready to view disaster from afar and thirdly, Eddie would have gone long rather than play a suicide pass. But then we understand the concept of building from the back: the rags plainly do not!

It was very obvious from his early days here that he thought he was an arrogant fucker who thought he was a cut above.He clearly believed natural talent alone would propel him to the top as he swaggered his way to Dortmund and then onto the rags.

The kid does indeed have wonderful ability,but that counts for little if the attitude is wrong.Hopefully,other kids,and obviously especially ours.....have watched how his career is panning out compared to that of Foden.

One to file in the Lingz, Deli Ali, Sturridge, Sterling, perhaps Michael Johnson, cabinet.

I know I shouldn't....

They have made huge progress according to Ten Hag. I’m not sure about that. Looks pretty similar to previous seasons

U.N.I.T.E.D

That's spells fucking shite to me...

 

[wolviedinho]

All of them back in hiding. Shirts back in the bottom of the wardrobe. None of them watch football anymore and it's Glazers Out again.

Daft cunts.

It’s embarrassing. I very rarely engage even if they win. All u get back is the 99 treble.

No backbone to support a team not winning every week.

 

[Manc in London]

Well worth a watch if you haven't seen it....

That was a great watch.

It should have been 10....

 

[BringBackSwales]

Just call them rags.

I could cope with Rags capital R

And now a message from the Pontiff....
