Could someone do a Monday Night Football tactical analysis of the defensive shape of them here?

View attachment 169660
I was at the match and some times you don't see everything as it happens so quickly. Whilst I saw the goal,* until I saw it on my phone on the way to the pub, I didn't really appreciate how fucking shite the rags were for letting it happen. That picture sums it up brilliantly.

*By the time I'd finished celebrating I'd missed the replays on the big screen
 
Haha. His main concern is that they only have one game a week. That's not going to generate enough likes and follows to pay for all his chicken baltis.
Nah he will just do what the other YouTube wankers do, every game they can.
Flying pig who I love by the way does city Chelsea chumps league etc basically any game they can. Partridge 2.0 Goldfish has about 4 fukin shows on the go these days.

I really do wonder what is the role and qualifications of some pundits. There is clearly no accountability from their employers over time as to the accuracy of what they express. In the case of Merson his record means he has no credibility and that is not offset by any humour or deep insights. His inability to pronounce the name of many of the foreign players in The Premier League is both insulting and shows a lazy attitude to is job. Other than supporting his 'issues' Sky have no justification for employing him.
 
People forget how bad De Gea was by the end. It wasn’t just that he can’t kick the ball, he could barely claim a cross, and he was so rooted to his line that every 1v1 was a goal.

He was costing them more points than he earned with reflex saves for the last couple of years.

Onana being unbelievably shit has done his reputation a world of good.
He wasnt that bad considering how badly he was being peppered

Wife's nephew used to work for united we stand whatever that is. Gets on Sky sports quite a bit to talk about them lot and also Talk sport. He's just started another fan thing now where he has an executive box there, went on the pre season tour and has access to the manager and players after games.

And he's left his wife and kids and is banging one of their women's ex players
 
I'm sure they only employ Merson so he doesn't drink himself to death if they got rid of him. I've said one here before I did a gig where he had 5 pints of Guinness on the top table then got in his Audi. I only had 3 because it was 4 hour drive
 
What's that got to do with it?
It's all glass, that's gonna get full off shit and manky in no time... lot of traffic kicking up and belching out dirt, and the rain... it will look as run down as the Swamp in no time... if not worse.
 
If you scroll up you will see full post. Not quite sure what happened there. It's a full Merson rant
I know, I saw it :-), but the point about what qualifies these people for punditry struck a chord, that's why I selected that as a quote.

Without being racist/sexist (after all, I'm one of white, black, girl, Scot myself) they all tick a box, don't they? Charisma, entertainment value, knowledge, insights etc don't come into it any more.
