  1. He's a total Jeckel and Hyde player. Can look brilliant one week and completely awful the next. I think his biggest weakness has always been his awareness. He's so clueless at times when he's on the ball. He dwells on it far too long and always lets an opponent sneak up from behind and take the ball. He also play so many stupid, blind passes that give away possession. May sound harsh because he's been solid for us, but upgrade needed in the summer if we are going to take that next step as a team.
  2. Far too many players were subpar for us to get 3 points there. Hazard and Pedro were invisible in the 2nd half and Diego was poor all 90 minutes. Matic woeful, Cahill and Luiz were clearly affected by the conditions because they kept misjudging the ball. Think Kante was the only player who had a great game. A point there isn't a bad result but the teams behind us will get some encouragement from it. City especially will be smelling blood of they win tomorrow.
  3. WHAT THE FUCK ARE LUIZ AND CAHILL DOIN!!?
  4. Exactly the sort of game Burnley wanted and their tactics are working. Play it long and get the knockdown in a dangerous area. Diego needs to sharpen up. His touch has been poor so far and he keeps killing attacking moves.
  5. Suffocate them and score early! Oh, I'd kill for us to batter them today...
  6. Expecting a very choppy, stop-start kind of match. They'll try to do everything they can to stop us playing so I think it'll be ugly. Praying we play like we did against Arsenal where we dominated rather than how we did against the West Broms or Hull's of recent times where we allow average sides to stay in the game.
  7. Fantastic result so long as we capitalize. This should fire us up even more hopefully.
  8. This is awesome from Liverpool, must be said. Mané is an incredible player. Only one of their players I'm jealous of.
  9. A defensive team that scored double the goals you have with a game in hand, eh José? Told you guys, if we do go on and win the title he'll give our team and manager zero credit. He's now turned into a football purist now he's the United manager. His team are Barca now apparently.
  10. I'll be cheering on Liverpool like mad tomorrow (*vomit*). They win and our boys will be up for it even more on Sunday. It would surely be title race over. Spuds win at Anfield and even if we don't slip up they'll be a thorn in our sides for the rest of the way just waiting for a small chink in our armor. This could once again be one hell of a weekend if results go our way!
  11. Do we need a right sided attacker at all? Pedro and Wiliian are already having to share the position. Unless it's someone spectacular like Sanchez.
  12. Yep. We play much more attractive and progressive football under Conte than we did in Mou's second spell. Really annoying that he feels the need to use these veiled insults about how we're a defensive, counter attacking side and nothing more.
  13. Why would he sign a new contract to make it harder for a big club to buy him?
  14. He wouldn't need to be the only source of goals here like he has to at Everton. People have to remember that. He'd be surrounded by the likes of Hazard, Pedro, and Willian (plus whoever else we sign) who can all chip in double digit goals in a season. At Everton he's their only reliable goal source and he carries them on his back. Honestly, I don't think our level would drop much if at all with Lukaku in place of Costa. If Diego must go in the summer, Lukaku + Morata or some other mobile, "second striker" type would make me very pleased. Love him or hate him Lukaku is the real deal now. A reliable, 20 goal per season striker at the age of only 23. His touch can be poor as hell some matches but then isn't Diego's?
  15. You can be absolutely sure that if we win the league Mourinho will find some way to say "it's a false title because they weren't in Europe," or something like "I put together a great group for Conte." He will be burning inside to see us win it.
  16. With the way Liverpool have played recently it wouldn't shock me at all if they got spanked. Just have to hope Anfield plays its part and Klopp/his players want to stop the embarrassment.
  17. Another weekend where our closest title rival plays a huge match against another contender. I know people were saying the title is ours after the Arsenal match, but if we beat Burnley and Liverpool beat or even hold Spurs to a draw I think that'll be that. Cannot expect to just show up and claim 3 points effortlessly here. We've seen Arsenal, Liverpool, and Spuds all do that in recent weeks against relegation fodder and lose/drop points. If we don't show them the proper respect we could get punched in the mouth.
  18. Definitely think City will finish in the top 4. They're nothing special this season but should have just enough in attack to see them earn a CL place.
  19. This kid always seems to be in the right place at the right time. Fuck off.
  20. Any possibility we could sign him we should be all over it. Pep doesn't really strike me as the sort of guy who would care about selling him to a rival so long as he gets his way with other targets. He just doesn't really fit the Guardiola style. He'd be amazing in our setup.
  21. So many opportunities to score that were just inches from coming off. Dangerous score line, this. Cannot allow momentum to swing their way because you know they'll bring Giroud on to target Moses/Azpi and he always scores off the bench.
  22. Our biggest weakness has been teams targeting our lack of height in wider positions. Arsenal don't have any height in their attack, really, so it's all down to our defender being 100% switched on and aware of the pace they have.
  23. With Ox in the middle where he isn't as comfortable it would've been nice to play with 3 in the center like I hoped for. For the love of God, please don't just sit back and let Arse have 80% of possession like we did with Spuds and Liverpool.
