MNF can be a pain but it's nothing new.

Cannot for the life of me believe the hard on the papers and news outlets have about Man United. I'm talking jazzed up banners and glory pictures of them on every internet page, mug shots of Van Gaal with the headline "United ready to rule again"

Fuck off you pack of tossers, I really hate United with a fucking passion, and the media even more.

Yep.

You can see they've found their new love interest for the upcoming season. Last season they were all swooning over José, but now it's Van Gaal and United again. It's almost definitely going to be insufferable. Twitter will be avoided for a while if/when they sign Vidal or any other world class players because the "United have to be favorites" shit will be banded around.

Since they have such easy opening fixtures it's almost a sure thing that they'll shoot out of the gates and probably win 5-6 in a row and they'll be "back and better than ever." Van Gaal will be "the best manager in the world," and they'll be installed as favorites for the title.

While a pain in the ass for visiting fans; for selfish reasons I'm glad. I'm at GamesCom in Germany until Sunday so I would of missed the game if it was on the weekend .

I have a feeling we will concede an early goal against Burnley. First few minutes against newly promoted sides are very difficult. These teams believe they can beat all the teams in the world on the opening day.
