aka GIVE US MORE MONEY!

Would Pochettino even want the United job at this point? Their squad is a huge mess and their board are even worse! Yes, United have the name and money but if Pochettino goes there, it'll be another rebuilding job for him, arguably even bigger than the one he oversaw at Spurs. He might just prefer to go to a club where the structure is already there and it allows him to win from the get-go.

We didn't play well in the League Cup meeting but we didn't concede much either. They won because they scored a penalty and a worldie from a free kick. That was it.

From about 0:38 in, Solskjaer went with the 'at least we won the 2nd half' line after yesterday's loss...like seriously, how is this man the manager of most successful club in England!?

Meanwhile...

Palace are trying to sign them on loan, not permanent deals.

Zaha was really dumb to sign that contract extension when he did.

Just curious. Want to see the alternate timeline!

Cheers Antonio for making me look like an idiot! If he's so keen on clearing up United's mess, can he also do the same with us!?

Err...

That was the 1st game of the season, so I will begrudgingly give that a mini pass, as stupid as the defeat was. More importantly, we need to set the record straight when they come to the Bridge!

Excluding us, they beat Spurs and City in the league, drew with Arsenal and Liverpool, lost to Arsenal. It still doesn't excuse our losses against them though, when they have been so poor. In fact, we haven't even beaten Solskjaer's United yet (D1 L3)!

We signed Drinkwater when he was only 27, different to Luiz who was 29 when he came back and he signed only a 3-year deal.

Nope, it was a 5-year contract. https://www.chelseafc.com/en/news/2017/09/01/drinkwater-joins-chelsea

Losing to Man United TWICE this season is one of the stupidest things ever!

Make of that what you will...

Loan to Villa confirmed.

Jesus, just sell him off already!

Your optimism over a 33-year-old is admirable. Agree to disagree.

Just realized this thread has over 300 pages and I know it started in 2011 but how's that happened!?
