So Ten Hag can't even play his 'preferred style' and dominate possession while playing out from the back against a newly promoted team? Nope, he reverted to hoof ball after about 3 games last season and hasn't had the balls to try and turn them into a proper footballing side since then. Long may it continue, because while they're playing their special brand of hoofball, the best they can hope for is top four with a lot of assistance from the refs, and the occasional result against a decent team.

Hardly convincing as a " progressive " manager.

First option is the big boot - in true rag style.

 

[Blue Til Death]

They might. I wouldn’t know.

Before my time ;-)

Oh believe me they would, both would get in the side these days, let alone in their era..!

 

[Blue Til Death]

Its something we won’t ever know because it’s an unrealistic and impossível transfer.

Pep is well documented in his love for Portuguese players and you think if Bruno was at a different club like spurs etc putting up his numbers Pep would not want him?

KDB as well rates him pretty highly.

I have no doubt if he played for a different club the opinions on him here would be much different.

No doubting his ability when he’s playing against shit teams but he goes missing big time against the top sides.. Do you think Pep would entertain a player, begging to be substituted when they got tonked 7-0 by the dippers?
Then he’s made captain ???

I must say though the goal against Burnley yesterday was pure class …!

 

[Blue Til Death]

I’ve also just seen a report. Says he was not hurt just shaken.

Like a fishfinger straight outta the fryer…!

That's the Title wrapped up according to the media. They can now focus on the European Cup Final. Wankers.

Some volley by Ratface last night, a cross between the great Van Persie and Di Canio vollied goals. That pass from Evens was pirlo-esque.

 

[cookster]

Who is this bruno chap who keeps on being mentioned?

Marcus Crashford

Let me guess the lamppost came out from nowhere, a bit like the rag’s season.

 

[Impeccable One]

I feel like football was the real loser here :-)

I was at the game, it was a stark reminder of how poor football games can be when one team really has no quality players and the other doesn’t have a system for the quality of players they have.

Plus, sitting on an old wooden seat transported me back 40 years [emoji15]

 

[pride in battle]

Yeah, saw it.
Had a good laugh at Neville's ugly mug too after he fed the goat.
I remember the smug bastard mouthing off all week that he had never lost to City and couldn't think of anything more embarrassing and his fake hardman impression in the tunnel before the teams came out.

Some great goals and memories:)

 

[normskih]

To be fair Pep did try and sign Pogba apparently...

We all know what a different player he would have turned out to be. Not the same one at there, at any rate.

 

[The Shallyman]

Their back up left back, who came in to cover the 2 other injured left backs, is injured.

Ha ha ha

Someone has been walking under ladders, smashing mirrors.. some proper voodoo shit.

Marcus Crashford

Obviously easier to hit a tree, fence or lamppost than the back of the net.

 

[Andy TheCatalyst Morrison]

He provides a high number of goals and assists.

Brilliant finisher and striker of the ball and has an engine where he never stops. His passing accuracy is low because of the types of passes he does but he is a good passer as well.

KDB rates him highly as do many in the league.

I’m with you guys, United are cnuts and their fans are no better, but Bruno is a dam good player and his stats show that.

I think it’s wrong to say he’s “not close” to starting for city.

He is the perfect example of, a player you hate for various reasons but would love if he was on your team.

Nope. Flat track bully - name one game in the Premier League against a top team where he's had a good game. Just one.

 

[TinFoilHat]

Are they back?

 

[mexico1970]

Are they back?

They've been back since 1992 mate, just not back back where they belong.

Glazers out :)

 

[TinFoilHat]

We should take a banner to the swamp with a picture of the Glazers on it to show our support.

 

[Blue Til Death]

Let me guess the lamppost came out from nowhere, a bit like the rag’s season.

I reckon he ran into Maguire …

 

[Protein Junkie]

Are you being frank?

Hmm Bertie

 

[TonyColemansbagofapples]

You mean they belong in the Championship I assume
