what makes me laugh is that they and he thinks a tantrum will make any difference, im sure all these grown men will be ever so scared of this fecking nobody throwing his toys out of the pram, he quite simply doesnt have the cache or reputation to be acting the way he does.

More Villas-Boas than Mourinho at the moment. I actually thought he had something about him though, but when I saw how he set up with Sporting against us I started to think that he might not suit the top level. Yes, they sucker punched us and were organised and well coached, but we were completely shit in that moment and we should arguably still have been at least 3 up in the first half. The best coaches in this day and age doesn't set up to absorb pressure and hit on the counter. Even the managers in the Prem a bit under the highest level like Iraola, Frank, Howe, Hurzler and Emery coaches their teams to try and control possesion against any team. You could argue that it is sensible at Sporting to do it, but as we have already seen he is way too comfortable to sit back and hoof it as soon as he is given the keys to an allegedly "top club" as well. This type of mentality is hard to shed. Just look at Arteta. You don't win anything in football these days with a style based on a inferiority complex. Even Atletico has started to play some relationism driven joga-bonito type of shit most games and they are probably the only club where playing defensive shit on a stick football is so ingrained in their dna that they can live with it and still be competetive

It's how united have always played, even at their most successful under the pisscan their style of play and tactics were only ever about absorbing lots of pressure and then hitting on the counter.

And getting fucking assistance if it went tits up!
 
The amount of times I was called a bitter Bertie during their Pisscan spell were countless - like all of us, I daresay.
But my counter argument was always the same: I have nothing but admiration for a club that plays according to the rules of the game, a club that plays with honesty and integrity, and beats their opponents fairly and squarely. There is no shame in losing to a club who -on their day- were simply better than you.
But when that club picks and chooses who can and who cannot referee their games, when that club is told by the manager to target individual players (SWP) knowing the ref will turn a blind eye, when that club has a manager who can physically threaten match officials and face no sanctions from the governing body, then I cannot and will not accept their so-called 'victories' and the plastic trophies they may have accumulated along the way by employing such disgusting tactics.
Had the refereeing officials in charge of the game during Pisccan's reign been honest, truthful and played by the rulebook, we would have seen a very very different outcome to the majority of their games, and the Pisscan and one or two others would have been doing time in Wormwood Scrubs.

Well, some them were crying…..
 
It's just another in a long and drawn out saga involving the vermin. Day in day out there is something in the column inches of the tabloids: 'Sicknote' Robson now having to pay his own bar bills, ticket prices being raised, cascading waterfalls, Rashford giving the club more headaches because he's a child who throws tantrums. Grist for t'mill, that's all. Fodder for the terminally stupid who save up their benefits in order to buy another souvenir shirt.
To say it's tiresome is akin to saying Bonnie and Clyde would not be the ideal choice of housemates.

The tabloids grind out these non-stories knowing full well it's a load of festering compost, but it keeps the clickbait club in the headlines and that's all they are concerned about.

I really do not want the Rags to sell Lurchio Gazpacho to Chelsea.
He scores very highly on the comedy/pisstaking stats so long May he be shite and stay put.

He's obviously another world class local talent brought up on the fables of Lee Sharpe and Federico Macheda.

It would truly be a great loss to the greater Manchester region............
