ManU have played like utter wank for all of the 20 years i have been watching football. under Ferguson they always humped long balls to the the middle, tried to win second balls, distributed it to their wings and then just pumped corners in the box. Rinse and repeat. Always got lucky tho. I cant stand how pool and esp Manu always get favoured by the footballing institutions, be it Fa, refs or media. such disgusting clubs.

Wait, I thought united way is supposed to be attacking football 🤔🤔

We can't keep looking back at teams behind us. Too many for close comfort

Our aim right now should be to overtake Leicester. 

Our problem is everytime we think can over take them we drop points.

Guess in a way deserve praise for being unbeaten in whatever it is 9 or 10..and doing the double for first time on 10 years. We've let them back in it and so annoying we have!

Watching some of the analyst praise united hurt my brain a bit. United has spent 200m in one season and they are in top 4 battle,not title contention. 
 

If they get Sancho, they have one of the best offense in the World.

Steven Bergwijn: Jose Mourinho expects Tottenham winger to miss rest of season with ankle injury

 

At this point I'd be surprised for any goal Spurs score till the end of the season.

God knows what Mourinho is gonna throw up...

His own players under the bus.

Great. There was a very slim chance of Spds taking anything from United next this weekend but now it's pretty much a guarenteed 3 points.

That's it. Way theyve been hard to see where they'll drop points. Let's just hope we dont!

Might as well forget about Spurs altogether now. Arsenal have more hope.

[Laylabelle 9,359]

Know its worse case but still...would be gutting if were a fan for Liverpool to lift he trophy to a empty stadium.

IF they pull that off

we are well and truly fucked next year

as that is deffo a better team than we will have (Sancho being the swing true gut punch)

we had better all hope Shitty's full two year ban is upheld, as the first 3 spots quite likely are taken (Bindippers, Shitty, Manue)

meaning we are going to be fighting with four or five other teams for fourth and fifth
