Other than a swap of Fred for Scott McTominay

this is Manure's absolute strongest line-up possible IMHO

I suppose you could make a case for Martial over Cavani, but if Cavani is firing on all cylinders he is still a better CF (this is the last year you can claim this as he turns 35 next winter) than Martial

Martial out the rest of the season. Injured during international.

ManUre look dross, so penalty incoming

Maybe it is just me but they have not matured or developed at all under OGS. They just have added Penandes but every sinlge on of their players is still the same. They had this hot streak after the restart last season but have returned to mean since. Completely boring and predictable + pace. But Brighton ahve been smart enough not to overcommit. just sit deep and ManUre are useless.

24 of his goals the past 2 season have been pens, and 4 more rebounds from his own pens!!!

Only 22 goals (in almost 8000 minutes of football) have not involved pens he has taken.

works out to only around a non pen involved goal every 360 minutes, and many of those approximately 7900 minutes were against pure SHIT teams

There has to be an investigation in to FA, because there is something going on with Man UTD getting these decision over and over again.

[Magic Lamps 11,653]

very reassuring that the pro-Manure commentator always knows in advance that VAR is not gonna revoke the goals for them

lol same thing as with the communist party... there can be no corruption investigation when the institution in which all power is concentrated is theone that is corrupted.

Premier League clubs have to come together to change something about this. Remember what happened with FIFA? Anythings possible.

However its unlikely so I agree where you're from. Thats the sad reality.

what did happen to fifa tho? Sepp Blagger got sort of axed and then the next egghead carries on the same kind of corruption. You can not cure it unless there is a fair, transparent and democratic ruling body in place.

fucking typical gift game for Manure

arfff

Fucking pisses me off that United are so far ahead of us. Lucky as hell just like last season with that clueless clown as manager.

The only difference between us and them is that they repeatedly play like utter shit and yet still get 3 points over and over again either by soft penalty awards, VAR helping them, or the opponent making a single dumbass mistake having otherwise been the better side all match.

We play poorly or are subpar and are always punished for it. They play poorly and still win. So they’ll coast to 2nd place while we’re battling for 4th. I suppose the only good thing is that it’ll keep Solskjaer in the job for longer and longer. They’re never winning the league with him. Unless they get Haaland, anyways.

Not that we had any chance of catching but still..9 clear...can Bruno just go somewhere else lol. Such a impact! Know there's the whole penalty thing but that aside..he's just there!

Be intresting to see how next season pans out..at the moment they've only lost one more game then City have. Just drawn a lot which has cost.
