hopefully we focus and do our fucking job and dont fuck up

We were hoping for this many times in the last months and the players let us down. We desperately need to enter the transfer window and splash some serious cash. Because this current squad, they will not hold on. I don't trust them considering the competition.

Yep. Helps having a manager who gives more freedom and turns their season. We've had it enough times. 

Oh well.. Be nice if Brighton can trip them up. 

United was very lucky. Solkjaer reacted very late. Spurs was having a field day all game long they just couldn't score.

De Gea was obviously motm, Pogba was fantastic, but when your opp is Harry wink and eriksen, it is quite easy to destroy them physically. 

With healthy dier, this is going to be different game. 

Dier is massively overrated shit IMHO. The spine they really miss is Wanyama, who has just collapsed as a player.

Nope. Dier ability to play as cb and dm make spurs tactically very flexible. They can switch from back 4 to back 5 with ease but today Sissoko, wanyama and dier were out. It was just a field day for pogba

It is one of those days, this happens during the season. The thing is, Tottenham still have huge quality up front which will succeed in the next games. And that is the difference between them and us. They will win their next game, while we keep struggling and hoping for a lucky goal/win.

atm i would put Eriksen in our midfield, he makes greats passes just like Cesc and can score goals

Yep. But on the whole they've won 6 in a row. He's got them going again. This was possibly a bump but unfortunately Spurs just couldn't get the goal.

I don't rate Dier, Typical massively overrated English player. If he were Slovakian no one would give a toss about him.

Do you have a spare £100m (or more) laying around?

Yup, spurs have better scorer than us. Harry kane is absolute world class. Plus son and alli can chip in goals as well

haha of course we wont buy him and those cunts will never sell to us, but he's the type of player we are lacking in midfield, we need to look elsewhere

Don't get me wrong. I was worried the moment they sacked Jose. This United team was underperforming big time, the moment Jose shackled is off they will go on a run

[Pizy 17,860]

Fucking hell. I thought they had a murderous schedule coming up? They should comfortably win all these. We must beat Arsenal next weekend.

Maybe but he is crucial to the way spurs play.

It is all on the board, we could have had Icardi for £98m in the summer, and dumped Morata for £55m to Milan (Marina said £70m or no deal)

That's only a £43m net spend for the second best CF on the planet., and we turned down a total of £620m in real hard bids (and will lose over £250m to £300m at end of day when they all walk on frees or are sold for shit)

The board is shit, until I see different I maintain my stance 100%.

I see we might sell Bats for FOURTEEN MILLION, just to further cement my opinion.
