[Milan 17,955]

The best result! 7 points clear even after the Spurs defeat! Frustrating, Jurgen, right?

[communicate 2,703]

Good result for us and this kinda assure me what I expect in the beginning of the session that this United has by far the best squad in the league.

A good amount of world class players (Ibra, Pogba, De Gea, Mhyky), tons of depth with variety. They can go big, go fast, and they can go with experience.

I am not sure why It took them this long to be good.

Good weekend of results for us. We now just need to sort out that annoying Costa fiasco and hope can get him back into the team!

Few years ago it was fuck off Mourinho haha

One more embarrassing thing by the Mancs, what so good to applaud their manager? especially only after a late offside equalizer AT HOME.

They were not that good to be honest. Pogba was shocking and United would have been better off without him playing. He will probably get a ban as well for losing his temper on Henderson. 
Ibra was invisible much of the game until that offside "fluke" goal, but his headed finish was really terrific.
Mkhytariarasfsa (however you spell it) always drove forward but nothing came from it usually.
 

Btw cheeky bid for Alexander-Arnold (Liverpool's teenage left back in the game)? He was really good considering he was targeted the whole game.

Yup but they don't quite fit into one system. Let's hope they finish outside the too 4 sack mourinho and have to start over

They are really good, don't listen to united fans who said that Mourinho need 2 transfer window to fix this team. This team is loaded. They did not play bad game,  ibrahimovic is an absolute monster in the air. Their game plan is very simple play wide and find ibrahimovic far post.  Very simple but very effective. The problem for me today was rooney,  I have no clue why Mou brought in rooney. If he want somebody to play in the hole bring Mata or if he want more runner behind bring Rashford. Do you realize Mou basically has a gazillion options that he can do to change the game. This team is loaded.

I don't think they will sack him. If they don't make in to ucl, they will spend more money. They probably will try to to sign Carrick replacement. Hopefully it is not going to be toni kroos  

The interesting part of this season has been Rashford. Imo Mou has stunted the growth of Rashford. I can see the potential of Rashford from last season, he was brilliant. But Mou has never been a big fan of youth development.

It depends. They won't sack him if he just misses out but if they finish way below the European places again, dont win a cup he will be gone. Let's hope for the latter. We don't need to fear them as long as they don't sign genuine world class quality. It is somehow grotesque how a team that cost in excess of 200m look inferior (admittedly not cheap either) team of no names.

The most hyped battle for the title in the history of football between the Manchester clubs before the season has now turned into the battle for a Champions League spot next season haha.

Fuck the hopeless British media, fuck Mourinho, fuck United and Paul Pogba  And the bitter mancs who thought they are back in the title race.

 

[Fulham Broadway 17,299]

Funny thing is before the Spurs game we were six points clear of second place, now it's seven. Long way to go and all of that but when we lost there was an awful lot shit written.

Exactly. Media making a huge deal we broke our streak but losing to Spurs away from home is totally normal, even for us with title aspirations.

As long as we continue to capitalize on those "smaller" games, we dont need to win at all cost against the likes of Liverpool, City, etc. This is how Ferguson won a bunch even without the best team.

Don't forget the build-up to that Manchester Derby.. Where one newspaper in Spain dubbed it "Manchester- The Modern Centre of Football". Lmfaooo

 

what a result for us. 7 pt lead restored. Spurs got Europa league coming up, that should finish them. Match at Anfield gonna be massive. Just gotta avoid a loss at all costs. 

Imagine one of City/United missing out on Top 4? That would be the dream.
