Jesus christ. That whole thing is like a parody sketch show but the Asian guy is like an early 90's sketch show trying to be as offensive as possible.

I'll never ever understand the mindset of anybody that chooses to watch absolute weapons like these live instead of the game itself.

Is it just blind hatred for them or does it seem like everyone on their squad (maybe excluding Ericsson) are unlikeable twats?

They've even said that on the caff, to be fair. And saying that most of our lads seem likeable enough. Except for Grealish!

All the tv station in Ireland are gutted they may lose utd's games after xmas. So far 4 utd games all shown live in contrast none of City's game shown.
It's also no coincidence that Sunday is FAI cup final day where they are expecting over 45000 at the final ( the highest attendance in 70 years). Since Dublin is full of dippers and Rags ,it seems they are getting dissillusioned with the PL and seeking glory closer to home

Yeah; the media over here worship them. If we were playing Bayern, and utd were playing Young Boys, you just know who the Irish station would pick. An answer to your problem is IPTV; my mate swears by it.

Long May it continue. The image of self entitled pricks is evident but not backed up by a poor squad of players and an equally poor manager.

As long as they continue to believe the false image of their club, they will continue to fail.

I hate that finger to the mouth shit. The disrespectful montherfuckers got exactly what they deserved which is fuck all.

Most pundits speaking about Var don’t know the basic football rules. Rashy red was correct as his action did endanger an opponent. The lads ankle could have been broken. We all know he was trying to shield the ball but it was dangerous play.

The handball stuff is crap and hopefully changes can be made to Var.

Infuriates me. Complete arrogance.

FFS, I turned off at 0-2.

We had it on the laptop until the rags' second went in, and then I put on the Arsenal game, as Mrs Vienna was watching something on TV.

We then saw that Copenhagen had pulled a goal back, so when the programme finished, we put it on, though I still had very little hope that the hosts would get anything out of the game.

As it was halftime in the Arsenal match, I took the dog out.

Imagine my surprise, when I arrived back, only to find that it was 2-2 and Rashford had been sent off.

We watched the second half, first in despair, then in delight.

So the rags played fantastic football the first 10-15 mins oh that’s alright then let’s forget about the other 75 mins then what a stupid answer from the fake Haaland..

They played well for the first 5-10 minutes on the 29th October, and remember how that turned out.
 
Ten Hag complained that the first goal shouldn't have stood because a Copenhagen was offside and blocking Onana's view, I looked for a clear angle of the incident and as I expected the lying bald prick was talking shit, the Copenhagen player is indeed offside but he is not blocking the keeper's view at all.
 
The fact Utd fans are complaining about "VAR being corrupt" for exposing the sort of decisions their club got away with all the time, in the 2000's especially, speaks volumes about their levels of delusion.

Because apparently, exposing their cheating behaviour is bad.

The Rags have a team full of lazy, defiant, over rated fuckers so why has Sancho been singled out. I just don’t get what he could have done that’s so bad when compared to what we see.

It does make you wonder if there's more to it, his extended break in Holland for supposed "mental health" reasons looks ever more dubious.

Why was EtH willing to be so supportive and understanding of someone with supposedly "mental health" issues back then yet now he's prepared to humiliate and vilify him, it makes no sense.

It's the kind of decisions that they STILL get away with and always go in their favour even now in the PL... it's only in European competition that they get to see what it's like for other teams, having to accept the vagaries and inconsistency of VAR.
 
Think they're finished at the top level under this regime. And it's not just about money. They spend fucking loads of money - on managers, on the team and players. But the culture at the club is rotten and that kind of malaise is really hard to turn around once it's set in. You only have to look at the Greenwood and Anthony fiascos and how they were handled; what happened with Ronaldo and De Gea before they left the club and what will inevitably happen with Sancho; the stadium rotting from the inside with leaky roofs and clogged drains; under-performing members of staff (from the first team to the backroom staff and board of governors) taking home huge salaries for poor work. There's no real drive at the club, no willingness to really reach the elite again. They're still going to be good enough to finish in the top half of the Premier League every season, occasionally finishing in the European spots and making it to the last rounds of different cup competitions - but being good enough to win titles year on year, to really claim back their reputation as the top dogs in Manchester, sorry but that chance has gone. They will inevitably climb back above City at some point in the future, maybe 10 or 20 or even 30 years from now (who would have thought during the 90s that we'd one day be the best team in Manchester?), but not under the Glazers, and even if Ratcliffe gets full control he'll need to completely transform the club. I think the realisation has really set in since their 3-1 defeat at Arsenal that this is just it for them for the foreseeable. 4th-8th in the Premier League, maybe a run at the domestic cups if the draws fall right, maybe a run at the Europa League every few years. It's not a bad life, and proper Reds will understand that - those that followed them in the 70s will still go and sing like they always have - but their armchair fans will give up on them and the army of "700 million supporters worldwide" will dwindle and drift back over to Madrid, Barca, PSG, etc. and City and Newcastle as the order changes. I once predicted in 2014, mostly as a joke, that we'd win our 20th league title before they claimed their 21st. Looks like that will happen now.
