Easy really when you have VAR and a team that had a cup final against us

I was shocked how poor SU were

this game (other than the WAY it went for the first goal)

is not a shock at all

[killer1257 3,282]

Manure are simply NOW (since Fernandes came and Pogba is back and happy and Greenwood has exploded) a far better team than we are
and (this will shock many here I think as i bashed him hard)
I really have to eat crow
and say
at this exact moment in time (future can change thsi obviously)
OGS is also a better manager than Lamps is now

Ole is a decent manager and that is why I never jumped on the "Ole at the wheel" bandwagon. But his squad is far superior than ours. Their starting eleven is almost complete. We have too many weaknesses.
So comparing Lamps and Ole is unfair. If we had a squad with similar strengths, a comparison would be fair. But guys like Barkley, Mount, Tammy, Giroud and Willian are nowhere near the level of Rash, Martial, Bruno, Greenwood, Pogba and Matic.

that draw scenario looms larger and larger (a draw in the Leicester manure game that puts them both through on GD over us even if we beat Wolves)

spuds are all (unless steal a point v the dippers) are probably all that stand in its way

[Laylabelle 9,534]

I dont think we will get ourselves over the line...unless we improve drastically in the next 2 games. Palace we were poor..West Ham we were poo..Sheffield we were complete shite and still amazed they only got 3...Norwich was nothing great.

Now we got beat Liverpool..know theyve lost but this is at home and its different. We haven't won a league game there in years

agree

GK Manure

CB Manure

CB Manure (Rudiger has regressed so much I would take Lindelöf over him atm)

LB Manure barely as Shaw is still shite, but Alonso is worse and Azpi at LB is WAY worse, plus Brandon Williams, even though he is a right footed LB, is miles beyond the turgid Emerson)

RB Manure

DMF hard to say, as Kante is not used there much, and Matic is a perfect foil (for a year or so more) to Pogba and Fernandes, but I will say Chels

CMF Manure

AMF Manure

LW Manure

RW Manure

CF Manure

they are better at all but one position, and that is arguable IF Kante is not used at DMF

 

so yes, hat tip to you for making that point

If Leicester beat Spurs, then it's GG for us. 

[NikkiCFC 8,319]

Ideal scenario. 

We beat Wolves and Leicester beat Utd. 

It doesn't matter what happens in Spurs:Leicester game and Liverpool:Chelsea.

only 2 ways main ways we get CL if we lose to Victimpool 

we have to beat wolves and then have Spuds pull a point

or

beat wolves and NO DRAW in the Leicester/Manure if Spuds loses

it is down to that

barring a miracle draw (or win obviously) versus Liverpool

or Manure pulling the ultimate bottle job versus West Ham (those cunts owe us, without us they would be relegated)

You made it sound so simple, just like you thought Leicester won't win tonight, aye?

GG? what does that mean?

 

if that happens (spuds loss)

then we need to pray for NO DRAW between the 2 other teams

or pray we steal a point v the dippers

and obviously beat wolves

Good game. It's a gaming term.

WP. GG. GL and GN

[Special Juan 28,141]

It's starting to be so obvious now that brown envelopes and money is changing hands when it comes to who the FA want to be in what position..

This has been another horrific night for VAR and officials, I'm fucking disgusted.

Fuck with the WP and GL! 

[Pizy 18,903]

No chance am I having OGS as a better manager than Frank. Ole has been there longer and spent an absolute fortune adding to his side this season. And they're STILL behind us, however small that gap is.

I don't think it's even fair to really properly compare them until the end of next season when Frank has his own signings in.

OGS definitely deserves credit for his buys and for getting them very organized defensively, but that's what happens when you buy some of the most expensive defenders out there.

Peter Walton said VAR stood down and refused to get involved as it was a judgement call by that CUNT Graham Scott

the last time Scott was the ref of a Manure game was their 2-1 win over West Ham United last season, where he awarded two very controversial penalty kicks, which were both converted by Paul Pogba.

Stood down....is this the new fucking term for 'we are rigging it'

I'm fucking fuming here me

You got the order of games wrong. If we lose vs Liverpool and Utd and Leicester win their games they just play out a draw and we are out even if we win vs wolves. Why would Leicester risk it vs Utd when they can just safely make a ceasefire with them

[Jase 43,479]

How are you guys gonna keep calm until next Wednesday (or maybe this Sunday)? Asking for a friend...

My Mrs has just fucked off to bed as she knew I was ready to put my fist through the wall

[Jype 6,398]

Really starting to dread the idea of going into the last round with 63pts and both them other cunts at 65pts colluding for a draw. 

Still long ways to go before that scenario can materialize tho. Leicester are the underdogs against Spurs and we still have a chance of getting at least a draw from Anfield but I still got a bad feeling about this.
